sure hope you arent going to watch these guys this year after last year's shit show
Their E3 coverage is always shit. Don't even know why they bother going down there.
I will. Try to stop me fucker
I will only watch West Coast GB and that is very rare actually. I have never watched a piece of East Coast content and I will keep it that way until it's Vinny by himself or Vinny and someone who isn't Alex or the new fat black dude.
I'm going to make fun of them with people I know on Discord and drink.
If you're a contrarian millennial then these fat fucks are right up your alley.
>>340860620
They are not contrarian, they are just boring
i'll be watching their livestream
its better than nothing and i love their attitude of that they just dont care.
>>340860620
basically this
Gametrailers for fun
Best gamers for funny
Best friends for gully gully baby talk
I totally am. I'm not 12 so I don't want some fucking actors screaming their lungs out over some fucking PR bullshit.
>>340860620
gametrailers cuck fuck off
>>340860754
Yes.
>>340860620
>>340860754
You're also a millennial.
I will be watching GB because I am not an autist.
I just don't like watching things with people talking over them. I'll check out their reactions after the fact.
>>340859602
Don't worry, I know where I'll be.
>>340859602
Why would you watch other people commenting on E3? Just watch the fucking streams, and if you really need other people, talk to people you know, or shitpost on /v/
I'm going to watch the recordings of the Sony and Bethesda, since they're at 3AM and 4AM where I live.
I sure will.
I'll go vanilla if its too cancerous.
>>340859602
Oh man. I had forgotten entirely about E3. Thanks for reminding me to watch GB's stuff, OP.
>>340860894
well, yeah
who are these 40 year old nerds
>>340860907
I'm gonna watch GB excatly because I am an autist and care about games rather than marketing.
>shitty tryhard stream for the average twitch audience:
>OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGGG THIS IS SO HYPE!11!1! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS SHOOTY BANG IS GONNA BE BANG AND SHOOT!!!1!!!
>GB stream:

>>340860493
Anyone got a link to watch their Mario Party video?
LEGACY PRODUCTIONS
>>340860620
Grandpa what are you doing
I used to enjoy their stuff don't think I have watched anything since the live Mario party.
>>340859602
Giant Bomb is the place to be.
What was so bad about last year?
Totalbuttcancer is doing a shitpost stream this year. Might be cool.
>>340861384
the fucking burnout stories are always great.
>>340861121
They can provide some additional context, especially considering they can have inside info or experience. Also, reading wouldn't be as easy as just watching one thing, and all my friends are retards.
>>340860620
>fat
The skinniest person alive works at Giant Bomb.
>>340861359

>>340861498
alot of gametrailersfags got mad that giantbomb crew weren't drooling for Shenmue and fallout4.
>>340861498
They didn't lose their mind over the Sony presser but rather kept a healthy scepticism, so Sonyggers are still upset.
I don't watch SJWs.
>>340860620
You're a fucking millennial you fucking retard Giant Bomb are the only reputable journalists out there that are still trying to keep game companies honest. They were founded after they were fired for panning a game that their employer paid money to promote
>>340861576
Got a link that would have the videos? Use to have the doc but lost it once I switch computers.

Yeah no thanks.
I stopped watching Giant Bomb a long time ago.
>>340861809
>journalist
HAHAHA they have opinions and nothing more, they aren't journalist.
I'll be going to the theater for the Sony Press conference, going to wear my Starfox Zero shirt I got from PAX East.
>>340861809
They aren't journalists at most they are entertainers.
>>340861498
They didn't act like screaming manchildren in regards to the FF7 remaster and Shenmue 3 reveals.
This of course set the two most vocal fanbases, Sony and Sega fans, firmly against them.
Honestly, they probably have the best E3 coverage out there. They don't seem to be shills and don't act like idiots when it comes to big reveals. I don't really care for any of their other content, desu, but they are the guys I go to for E3.
>>340862061

I'll be watching their livestream while shitposting on /v/, like I do every year.
>>340860894

Man. When did being a millennial become an insult? Just curious. Also, I find it hilarious.
No homo but Drew is handsome as shit, motherfucker looks like a blonde Michael C Hall.
>>340862752
When someone told /pol/ it meant "teenager"
what's the point of these types of streams? to see how your fake friends react so you can better shape your personality to match theirs?
>>340862407

>passive aggressively making cali hipster quips after every reveal

>>340862958
I have to know what games are offensive to Austin's black sensibilities
>>340863251
Still better than every other shit site's coverage. Giantbomb is not exceptional, they're just the king on a mound of garbage and shit.
>>340861121
are you serious?
enjoy all those sweet statistics about online services and people meandering about VR for 30 minutes
>>340862958
The press conferences are too fucking boring without someone making fun of them.
>>340859602
>Work mid-shifts and a few nights so I'll miss 3/4ths of the streams
Going to suck having to wait on archives
>>340863450
>everything is shit so this piece of shit is okay!
no, not everyone is as soulless and dead inside as the giant bomb crew
>>340862958
What's the point of being on /v/ while you watch streams? Same logic.
>>340863731
>they didn't get hype for my favorite game's marketing, so they're soulless and dead inside
>>340863731
Yeah, they're shills who scream like fanboys about reveals. I'd rather take a reserved and more cynical outlook than one of say, the Dorito Pope.
>>340863817
naa nigger. You're not reading E3, but you are listening to it. being on /v/ gets the same experience as a live chat, and you still fully hear the conference.
I sure will. Even got another year with premium.
>>340863915
>>340863974
>"them being soulless husks completely dead inside was a one time thing!"
>>340863731

I might watch the best gamers stream if it is uploaded somewhere after it's all done.
>>340859602
I'm going to watch a fat Canadian baby dolphin drink himself to death.
I'm thinking about spending E3 simultaneously with /v/ and TotalBisquit.
>>340864245

>>340864416
>letting your unhealthy eceleb obsession take priority over watching the conferences themselves and forming your own opinions
If you let their opinions override your own, you're weak-minded. I disagree with them about shit every year, but I still think their commentary adds a healthy dose of skepticism amidst the HYPE and corporate marketing.
>>340859602
>tfw you actively dislike most of the people in that picture
When is Ryan coming back?
>>340865313
Pay very close attention to the Microsoft press conference.
Nah, I'll watch it while I riff on it with my buddies like I do every year.
>Watching other people watch announcements be made about video games
I can kinda understand watching someone else play games, but seriously? Why would anyone do this? Are you too dumb to process new information on your own, or do you enjoy having others' opinions spoon-fed to you to parrot?
Why do people not read threads before they ask stupid questions?
>>340865562
Jeff has been to every single E3, and regardless of your opinion on him, knows a lot about vidya. I like seeing his input on stuff, and i appreciate his humor.
>>340865562
Same reason for why you'll be posting on /v/ while something boring happens on screen.
No it's really sad watching these amerifats pretend they are too cool for E3.
>>340861576
Before watching what's shit about it?
>>340866052
Mario Party stopped being good after 3
>>340865562
it's a cult of personality thing.
there's a gb unarchived channel dedicated to posting videos like dan going to taco bell, jeff driving to work, dan playing jenga -- with thousands of views. those people are fucking pathetic and incredibly lonesome.
i always giggle when i see little quips in the comments like they're a part of a conversation in the video.
>>340865872
>Being on /v/ when I could be watching E3
If I spent anytime on /v/ during E3, I'd either miss some good announcements or the cringe stuff. Can't waste my time missing either of those.
>>340865851
I suppose, but I just don't get it. If you're happy/sad about an announcement, that's all you really need, no? Is knowing some entertainer's opinion that important to you?
>>340865562
>Why do people watch other's reacting to things?
Is this your first time on the Internet?
>>340866125
So you're a literal autist that can't divide the slightest bit of his attention. Okay.
>>340866125
I disagree with a lot of their opinions, but It's interesting, and amusing.
Just listening to old E3 stories, it's cool.
>>340866125
>If you're happy/sad about an announcement, that's all you really need, no?
No.
>Is knowing some entertainer's opinion that important to you?
He wasn't just talking about opinions.

Why won't alex just do us all a favour and become an hero?
Last years coverage.
Not sure if I'm gonna bother with them this year's E3, last one Austin constantly gave heads up about something because he kept reading twitter and knowing everything beforehand.

How the fuck was Alex able to get Kanye on their E3 show?
>>340870813
Their site, no.
How the fuck can anyone watch anything by these faggots. All of their shit just feels like going into a shitty dive bar where a bunch of fat 40 year olds bitch about their kids while drinking light beer.
>>340871204
That's the appeal
>>340871138
Do you know if they are streaming it on twitch as well?
>>340872498
Probably, I'm not sure though. Their site works well enough.
>>340870959
By telling Kanye how cripplingly depressed and suicidal he was.
I really like their coverage and the night podcasts are my favorite part of E3
>>340870959
wait, kanye is going to be on their E3 show? one of those end-of-day panel things where they shoot the shit?
>>340868541
Poor guy probably just wanted to meet Vinny but got stuck with Danny O'cucker and the suicidal goat.
>>340860894
Better than being an old fuck like you.
>>340866125
It's called critique, and it's always important to hear someone else's. I like the editorial team as a whole, but Jeff, Brad, and Alex are some of the may knowledgeable industry vets around.
>>340865562
Do you throw your hands up in the fucking air and shout every time a movie or TV show cuts to a reaction shot during a scene? Being autistic and not being able to read expressions seems sad
>>340867713
Those terms are basically one in the same. Any writer or editor is capable of journalism, and most of the GB staff doesn't do that anymore in a traditional sense.
>>340868541
I just want to say, Jeff looks great.
>>340868887
Well tbf Jeff has loss some weight.
>>340871204
>one staffer on each coast is a dad
Austin is the only truly terrible one. Such a fucking SJW and pseud.
>>340862082
They don't write articles as much anymore. Apparently they aren't journalist to you now?
>>340874328
he really does. Brad has been looking slimmer as well.
>>340874541
Austin isn't as bad as people here like to say. He has his annoying politics crap but he's not nearly as bad about it as Patrick was. He can actually have fun and understands how jokes work.
>>340870959
No. It was supposed to be Peter Stormare, but that didn't work out.
Really enjoy GB, have been a subscriber for years. Looking forward to their E3 content.
They're always good for Sony/Microsoft but twitch chat and /v/ are better for worthless shitpost fuel conferences like Ubi and EA.
Might tune into them for Beth too, though.
>>340874813
I agree. And he has good taste. Overall i also find the east coast guys to be less dismissive than the Frisco guys.
Alex is still a wet towel though.
>giant bomb defense force apologizing for terrible e3 livestream

I can't decide what's worse.
>>340876023
>buttroasted OP bumps his own thread
>>340874653
Brad and I have very similar face types, and the amount of hair and facial hair he has is directly proportionate to how chubby he looks, whether he is actually chubby or not. When I'm clean shaven and have a fresh haircut I look about 20 pounds lighter.
>>340859602

i will probably watch because i still like jeff, but gb have really gone down since ryans death. i can barely stand alex, dan and austin and i get the feeling this e3 could possibly be the last straw
i'll probably watch because i still like jeff, but i have a feeling this will be the last stuff i watch before cancelling. gb is so much different since ryan died and i can't stand dan, alex or austin.

and like people like this don't they usually want more complicated, hard hitting stories in their games, why shy away from stuff that makes you uncomfortable, tasteless or not
>>340874328
when your friend dies from literally being too fat to breathe you probably see the world a little differently, sucks that some people don't realize being fat is bad for you and death sucks
Probably the funhaus one

When was this made?
Who made this?
Which one was this?
You guys seen the live video from the office? The know some big stuff.
Brad is a faggot, but I'm still a 100% with him when it comes to Final Fantasy 7.
"Waste of resources" is just the right way to put it.
>>340887519
What's the context here? He thinks the remake is a waste of resources?
>>340868541
How many years left does Alex' hair have?
whens the stream starting?
>>340888139
30min.
>>340888139
In a half hour, I think.
>>340861996
Odd because they won't stop talking about how much of a shithole San Fran is.
>started listening to the beastcast
>it's a actually much better than the current bombcast
Alex and Austin aren't nearly as bad as I thought they would be. In fact Austin is kinda chill. Still iffy on that Jeff guy though.
Anyone else noticing that Jeff is becoming just as annoying as Dan is with the wrestling references?
>>340881448
Too often he feels either insincere or retarded. Doesn't really matter which it is. I don't dislike him that much, though.
>>340867454
Now you have to draw Brad fat

Brad is retarded and so are you.
>>340888801
I'm not saying it's not gonna sell well, you dumbass. I'm saying that there's no value in it whatsoever.
They could have been making an actual new cool game with all of the resources but instead they're wasting them on a story I've already played nearly two decades ago.
>>340888330
>Still iffy on that Jeff guy though.
He's a monster!
Anyone upload the last two UPFs or Demo Derby??
>>340889096
I don't think you understand what that person was saying. The argument is that the remake is a necessary evil in order to fund the cool new stuff. I don't really agree with that though, I doubt a remake selling well will entice them to take risks on exciting new stuff.
>>340889373
