>>340709152
I'm assuming he's talking about last year where FFVII remake and Shenmue III were announced and EZA acted like a bunch of retards and made Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah's couch look like totally normal behavior and GB were trying too hard to be cool and detached.
They were both in the wrong for being tryhard faggots just in different direction.
Just different reactions, no hard feelings. GB guys didn't grow up as fans of Shenmue or Final Fantasy so they weren't that excited.
>>340709152
Their fans are having a slap fight about being hype (EZA) vs anti-hype (GB) over E3.
>>340709523
My favorite thing about that entire event is that it was only the fans that cared.
Both the GameTrailers and Giant Bomb crew respect each other, they thought the entire thing was a bit ridiculous.
Like, they grew up liking different things and the two websites had different expectations while going into the event. GT was going in as a bunch of fans who were watching to be excited, GB was going in as a bunch of journalists who were watching to know which questions to ask and which articles to write.
>>340709939
>seven white guys
How has no one raised a stink about them and demanded more diversity?
>>340709523
GB has people who have been in the game since they were 15. Now they're creeping up on their 40s.
They are calm and collected because they've seen it all before.
Jeff was also in his 20s when Shenmue came out. It wasn't really a good game, guys.
It's already been superseded by Yakuza years ago.
FF7 was great, but they all knew this was coming anyway.
Most of the GB staff like FF before FF7 the most.
>"Look at the DoA 5 costume DLC sometime. They launched that game with two $100 packages of DLC. They keep adding more. They've added so many costumes to that game. Because people like to play dress-up with their funny polygonal little dolls! ... It's a shame, because I think that's a pretty decent fighting game. ... Yet it's like, they're focusing on all this other bullshit, when they should be focusing on making their fighting game an even better fighting game. That's the part where I get pissed."

>>340709939
I'm no SJW, but that is a lot of white people in one room.
>>340710123
it's almost like
SJWs are hypocritical or something?
>>340710291
I guess it just flew under my radar.
I remember when GB hired Dan and Jason and GAF and other places flipped their shit. Some cunt """journalist""" demanded Jeff write some kind of essay about why they hired two more white guys.
>>340710523
Not that I agree with them in any way, but it makes sense from their perspective. You have to remember that "diversity" is just code for "less straight white guys".
What are the chances of /v/ having any more comfy Giant Bomb threads?
It seems like it'll be near-zero at this point due to newfriends deciding that they're all e-celebs, but there is potential.
>>340709523
Agreed. I hope Jeff doesn't let everyone have fucking laptops this year. What a great stream to watch everyone looking at chat.
Not that it would be worth it either way.
I'm just going to watch EZA this year, I'm kind of tired of being cynical.

Zero.
Maybe if we made the threads disguised or something, but I doubt that would work.
>>340709523
Easy Allies talked about the shenmue reaction on the latest podcast. Huber seems very passionate about the series.
Still don't know why Bosman stood up on the chair though tbqh.

this desu
you NEVER see them demand 'diversity' when bollywood makes movies with a 100% indian cast, when nigerian straight-to-dvd african trash films are 100% niggers, or when chink ripoff flicks are 100% asian
only ever against white people
same with sex - none of them give a fuck at all about all the fields and majors where women dominate, they only attack things that have more men than women
>>340712029

Yeah sure, when it comes to cool jobs like movie directors, engineers, game industry, tech industry, etc. they yell and scream about there aren't enough women. But when was the last time you saw them advocate for more women coal miners? Or fire fighters? Or construction workers?
They're such blatant two-faced shits.

>>340709523
>They were both in the wrong for being tryhard faggots just in different direction.
Agreed.
Though I can understand being excited. Nobody thought Shenmue had a chance; and while I'd never ask for a FFVII remake, I get it.
Acting like people were wrong for wanting both is shitty. Those titles existing don't hurt anyone.
>>340709523
>GB were trying too hard to be cool and detached.
Can you really not understand that some people just don't give a fuck about shenmue?
Every member of GB is like 5-10 years older than they would have needed to be to grow up and enjoying Shenmue
>>340713530
>Acting like people were wrong for wanting both is shitty. Those titles existing don't hurt anyone.
And this is why this controversy exists to begin with, autists can't understand that not liking something isn't actually an attack on the people who do like it.
>>340709939

>>340713985
>autists can't understand that not liking something isn't actually an attack on the people who do like it
Pretty sure Jeff Gerstmann referred to Shenmue as a "fork life simulator for assholes". He doesn't just "not like" Shenmue, he passionately hates it and happily disparaging anyone who does like it.
But that's just the standard state of discourse in the gaming community. Anyone who likes what you don't like or doesn't like what you do like is a "faggot" or a "misogynist" or a "racist" or a "manchild" or a "pedo" or a whatever. It's incredibly vitriolic.
>>340714506
so? if something you hated was popular you would say the same things. He doesn't have a responsibility to pretend to tolerate something just because people like you can't handle different opinions. If you don't like what he has to say, go watch someone else or better yet, go play some some actual video games.
>>340711594

Shenmue was a cute base for an actual good franchise, Yakuza.
>>340714756
>*Patreon campaign for Easy Allies does not meet expectations
what
>>340714907
they expected more, some major goals didn't get funded, like a fucking studio for example, also I'm pretty sure they wanted the whole gaming journo to be their day time job, but with the amount of cash they're getting it's not a possibility
>>340711905
>haha, i made the funny face again
>>340714701
>if something you hated was popular you would say the same things
I don't actually.
I'm not arrogant enough to assume I am the arbiter of good taste and I would certainly never attack someone just for being genuinely excited about something they have been waiting years for.
I like what I like and live and let live. It's really not that hard to do.
>>340715054
If they were expecting 50k, why would they set so many of the goals so low
What was the last good video GB made, famalams?
>>340715183
I like the Brad/Dan hitman videos but those seem controversial because Dan (much like MGS) offers terrible advice.
>>340715054
They said on streams at the start that they only expected to hit one or two goals.
>tfw they're doing better as EZA than they did as GT
>>340715114
>the arbiter of good taste
So by your logic it's rude and presumptuous for anyone to express dislike of anything.
>attack someone
he's stating his own opinion, he's not attacking you for Christs sake. newsflash, different people like different games.
>>340714820
Who is this?
>>340715462
fuck, this makes me appreciate how much less of a fat fucking sasquatch slob brad looks like now
>>340714506
I don't think Gerstmann ever called someone a racist or misogynist or 'manchild'
>not being cynical towards the fucking videogame industry
>believing dev and publisher lies
>believing bullshot trailers that will be downgraded to hell and back
as jeff said on one of the recent podcasts, 'I don't know what these idiots are getting excited for, the game won't look anything like that'
>>340715462
>gerst sneaking a peek at kish booty
>>340715360
>So by your logic it's rude and presumptuous for anyone to express dislike of anything.
There's a difference between expressing a dislike and objectively declaring something to be shit and anyone who like it to be shit. For example, saying "I don't like Assassin's Creed" is a little different to saying "Assassin's Creed is a fucking awful game and the fanbase are all a bunch of retards."
>he's stating his own opinion, he's not attacking you for Christs sake. newsflash, different people like different games.
I know he's not attacking me because I don't actually like Shenmue myself, but he definitely attacked Shenmue fans. He's gone on more than one rant about Shenmue and the fanbase. He really, really doesn't like them and wants it to be known.
>>340715601

Does anyone else remember Invisible Walls with shane and that British dude?
>>340717821
Yes.
There's two podcasts now
Maydoff and his "podcast network" and dick with his patreon podcast. Neither are as good as BPU. At least Dick isn't LITERALLY debating with himself though.
>>340717961
Yeah I saw, it's a shame. Dick needs to be around to call out maddox on his cuckery.
le gets overly excited man
>>340711905
Only kind of like him at Paxamanias. Otherwise he tries too hard.
>>340709091
Probably the ones that flipped out over a remake and a Kickstarter
>>340715183
Old Games Show was alright, and if you're premium Game Tapes 3 is also a quality watch.
>>340717959
yeah, I remember, honestly it was a pretty good podcast overall, I also used to listen to ebc that was also hosted on gt
but they ain't got shit on the bombcast, would love if bosman somehow joined up with the giantbomb guys, I liked his videos that he did on his solo youtube channel
>>340718221
Do people actually react this way to things? I don't think i've ever even been half this excited

are you suggesting hes an sjw or something
thats a totally reasonable stance
>>340709523
If my mind serves correct. But I think part of the reason GT was jumping around like a bunch of fans was because one of them made a hail merry bet on that Shenmune reboot.
>>340710207
He's not wrong
>>340718353

I like both and think anyone could watch either and it's fine.
>E3 with EZA
No doubt they will overreact to some announcements but even then their enthusiasm is infectious.
>>340718743
I like GT but I hated their overreacting at the Shenmue and FF7 announcement
>>340718783
EZA? What is their relation with RZA and/or GZA?
>>340718618
Not even that, but I believe Shenmue 3 was even a thing Huber always fucking places a gag bet on happening, and then last year it actually fucking happened for once. Imagine /v/'s reaction to Half Life 3 finally getting an official announcement. That's what happened with Huber.
>>340718871
foley artist on the man with the iron fists.
I like Huber, he's a cool guy, even ran into him when I was walking around cali, but he's a prime example of what's wrong with the gaming industry
hyped for everything, even if its utter shit or just a rehash and doesn't want change to his games. people like him are a poison to the gaming industry
>>340719021
I agree partially. He is a bit too optimistic I guess.
He still has some points that I agree with on the podcast sometimes and he's pretty great in the tabletop videos.
>>340719021
I see what you mean.
I have no fucking idea how he's excited for God of War 4, or how anyone could be at this point.
>>340712002
People don't, kinda funny are only relevant as they are burning through all their favours in the industry
Just go look at their view count, complete nobodies get more views yet they aren't getting awards
>>340710207
You could say that about any game that has skins. People like to play dress up with their polygonal dolls - the real problem he has with it is that in DoA they're half naked.
Why does anyone watch GB any more?
It's just a bunch of depressed old fat guys who don't seem to really like games any more and occasionally get a bit sjw. You have to be the biggest fanboy to be stuck around still
>>340719276
>kinda funny are only relevant as they are burning through all their favours in the industry
this so much, I'm glad other people noticed

Neither will happen since Vinny doesnt want to move back to San Fran (good for him) and Ryan is MIA.

Shenmue is kinda an exception though with context. It just seemed like a pipe dream till that moment.
>>340720214
I stopped watching after the first stream.
I imagine it's just him interacting with the twitch streamers. Its not like he'll ever beat Woz.
And I don't care for the community video they upload every month. I feel bad for Brandon for having to upload a half hour of irrelevant opinions of patrons.

Shenmue 3 being announced was literally his dream game coming true. It's like having your dream game getting announced when all hope is lost but you kept on believing anyways for that one day it'll happen.
Don't you feel like that anymore?

From what I remember of that stream it was a bunch of randos as well as devs/journalists who were there too, so a good number of the people performing on stage weren't anyone notable.
>>340719021
He's excited and sees the potential in every game. He shits on games he dislikes half the time too, you can see him tune out on some games they play when they stream sometimes.
Also when was the last time you've seen people in the gaming industry actually getting excited for games again? Pretty sure that most people in gaming are all cynical like on /v/, it's good to have optimism for once.

>HAHA PS4 STILL HAS NO GAMES
I like both groups but I'm going to be watching the conferences raw.
I really dont' care for anyone's live reactions or commentary to the announcements.
Post conference coverage will be tough I guess. Leaning more towards EZA because they aren't Austin or Austin or Patrick or Dan.
I hope Ian is too busy to be on the panels.
Speaking of Giant Bomb - can anyone tell what the point of E3 Judges Awards are? Every year Jeff goes away for a week to give an award to something that - for the last few years - has usually been an interactive bullshot.
>>340722135
it's not you daft cunt, that's why it's so cringeworthy and wrong
>>340714305
At the beginning of the month some transactions don't go through so the number changes to reflect that.
>>340722217
>can anyone tell what the point of E3 Judges Awards are?
They're the people who say what games can say they won E3 awards and print it on their covers. Titanfall won 8 million E3 awards, must be good, lads.
>>340722217
it's a prestige thing, they get the main guys behind the biggest sites to give out awards, also Jeff does the whole CBS tv and radio interviews, it's basically something for the mainstream so that the wall street journal can say 'this game received this many E3 judges awards'
>>340722217
Judges week is where journalists are shown new games that are coming out in order to give awards so they can get BEST OF E3 that game companies love to show off like Evolve.
>>340722217
It lets the different bloggers and news outlets preview the games ahead of time as well as doing the whole "BEST OF SHOW 80+ AWARDS" shit some games put on their box art and in trailers.
>>340722421
yeah, one of the main reason jeff goes is to get extra time with the games and to get a chance to play more of them
>>340718310
Huber seems like the biggest extrovert of the group. He's confident and outgoing for one, and Shenmue 3 was his dream game.
tfw geoff keighley jumped ship just at the right time from GT and is the man in charge of the whole Youtube E3 coverage
what a sly fucker
>>340722583
I think the groups reactions are entirely based on him
The people closest to him emphasise the most, knowing how much the franchise means to him, and react accordingly, none of them really care for shenmue
Also the fact shenmue was a bet among them increases hype higher
>>340722583
No he's weird, he loves sitting in the dark alone with headphones on watching movies and playing games. He says that's how he unwinds after a day at work. Like one time his friends got over to watch a movie, he gave them headphones and they watched it in the dark with both of them using their own headphones.

Unrelated to GB or EA, but related to E3:
Does anyone have a good site that updates all E3 info as it happens? I'm going to be missing the majority of the conferences Monday and would love an easy recap that's not shitposting on /v/ or the few articles that pop up on GB.
>>340721401
Bosman has some quirks like that, but he's also the best "gaming personality" around right now.

Yeah, the thing most people don't realise is that these guys really feels blessed to have a job where they can talk about video games compared to most video game journalists who simply dont give a shit.

I usually just track Twitter throughout the day, but I'll second IGN since they usually have stuff up relatively fast.Polygonusually does a story stream thing that just lists out all the big news of the day for each conference if you're capable of not being an autist and having a panic attack cause they published another dumb opinion article.
>>340723334
you're still supporting the site inadvertantly, fuck off
>>340723413
you've summed him up perfectly

he did say that he gets performance anxiety while playing live in the podcast recently

the only people at GB who don't are Jeff, Vinny and Dan. everyone else is some kind of autistic.

Did the owner rape your dog? You are not even giving them ad revenue but a single view, is that such a high price for conveniently listed information?
You really ought to re-evaluate where this loyalty to 4chan comes from
>>340722858
Yeah I can't wait for them to not give a shit about any of the announcements and then probably call one sexist
>>340723992
>Did the owner rape your dog?
Yes
>>340723530
just adblock them, they hate it when people adblock them and fill the site up with ads.
>>340723935
Dons design lab and discount gaming is superb
>>340723930
As mildly entertaining some of these can be, I really have to question the mental state of people that have this many clips on-hand of the GB guys.
I dunno, I like watching GB mainly because of Jeff, but some fans get really weird about people they will never personally know.
>>340724281
yeah some of their fans are so fucking creepy
>>340724112
>>340724281
Giantbomb fans are weird when Giantbomb themselves are just old, cynical and SJW who always look like they dont want to be there. Why would anyone be entertained by that?
>>340724281
The reason is the website's culture. The harsh moderation means only the biggest suck ups stick around and they feel the need to prove how much they love GB
>>340709091
The trend of over reacting to shit like this is getting on my nerves. I can understand that you want to appeal to your audience but the way those cunts were acting made my cringe.
GB act way more realistically in these situations. If my dream game got announced tomorrow I wouldnt yell and scream and run around like a dick head.
If a big game gets announced at E3 and it ends with something like "and it will be on sale tonight!" then you might get a bit more of a reaction out of me but when these companies come out and announce something that is due to release YEARS after the announcement it hardly warrants that kind of reaction.
The FFVII remake announcement was cool but we arent getting the full game for literally years with the episodic structure. Im not going to jump out of my chair and yell "I cant wait to play that in 5 years!!"
>>340724461
because I've been watching jeff, brad, vinny and ryan since 2001, because they're well connected in the industry and they've got a pretty good grasp on things, they keep it real and they don't bullshit me
>>340724281
That's nothing, watch this.

Jeff Gerstmann is my spirit animal.I hate myself so fucking much.
>>340723930
>no intro for dan
>intro for austin
why are their fans such fags?
>>340724675
>they keep it real and they don't bullshit me
Didn't they all defend Alison Rapp while avoiding the issue she was selling her holes?
GB is as bad as the rest of games media
I'm getting tired of cynicism.
>>340724697
>>340724675
I dunno, anon. They recently bullshitted everyone with their whole lengthy Allison Rapp defense.
Of course they also never uttered another peep about it after it was revealed that Rapp's side job was being an escort.
>>340724830
both dan and austin are cancer so it's ok
>>340725026
And before that they were bitching about Quiet for ages.
GB has kept it real for a long time
>>340725026
>>340724908
If I recall they defend other SJWs and journalists for their shit all the time.
>>340724908
yes.
and they also cried when their friends were blackballed at kotaku by bethesda.
Issues they honestly should have just not addressed at all imho
TechRaptor is the only news source I trust, the ONLY site with a full-blown, lawyer-vetted ethics policy.
>>340710123
Cause they're all mostly friends and they don't give a fuck about some diversity quota for now at least. They do have a fag, tho
>>340725154
They are all pretty close friends with the rest of the industry and pretty much just follow what everyone else does. It seems to have got worse over the years as they have gotten tired and just want to easily fit in
>>340725324
I think ian is good for the occasional controversial opinion that gets slamme down or discussed, cant have 6 guys just agreeing about everything, that aint fun
>>340710123
because they're literal whos
>>340713767
They shit on anything that wasn't an indie game, fuck those edgelords
>>340725324
ian is weird. 32 year old man acting and thinking like a 17 year old tumblr girl
Jeff's such a nice guy.
>>340725547
work on your english buddy pls
>>340725538
criticizing brandon jones on how to run a company sounds like a pretty bad idea
>>340725627
what was he supposed to say? 'fuck you whore suck on deez nuts!?'
jeff is a smart dude, and he don't want no trabbl, that was the smartest answer to that question
>>340723765
I want that fucking Michael Huber puppet show.
>>340725627
>I know you want to start some shit but I won't let you because I'm dead inside and I don't have the energy for your bullshit.
That's what he actually meant.
>>340725627
Jeff does the bare minimum to keep shit like this off of his back, aka lip-service. It's obvious that he doesn't care.
>>340725839
He could have just ignored it then, what he really means is
>Please look at me I'm pushing your rhetoric, can I be in your cool kids club?
>>340726039
>It's obvious that he doesn't care.
That age they spent complaining about quiet on the podcast sure could have fooled me
>>340725167
From what I can tell, they're pretty much guaranteed to talk at length about anything Klepek writes about at Kotaku. Their community also acts as if Klepek still works at GB.
Hell, just in their most recent podcast, they answered an e-mail explaining that pretty much all of games journalism is a single friend group instead of being competing outlets.

Feels bad man
