He'll go for Bloodborne

Probably tomb raider

Brad is going to try and slide The Taken King in there.

check brad's twitter, he confirmed destiny is in the top 5

Oh man aren't you guys excited for game of the year!? I can't wait for 18 hours of Austin jerking himself off intellectually over some indie garbage, Brad railroading every discussion and Dan opening his dumb fucking mouth to shut down actually important games to talk about bullshit

>>319636168
Maybe someone could recut a version of only Jeff, Jason and Vinny
>>
why do people like drew so much? he's so uncharismatic and not funny. he also sucks at games. like, more so than brad even. he always says stuff like: "it's overwhelming." and "i took notes." wtf.

also, jason's super skinny arms freak me the fuck out. dude looks sick.
>>
>>319635736
It's a joke
>>
>last week's Beastcast
Surprisingly good. Vinny + Jeff + Austin + Alex + Dan is a much better lineup than either podcast usually has.

>>319636009
Austin's completely alright.
>>
>>319638524
knowing brad, he will still bring it up. he did last year.
>>
>>319638618
austin pls go

Fuck off austin. Don't you have another thesis to fail?

go to bed, Austin.
>>
>>319638618
Jury's still out on Austin. Sometimes he's insufferable, but you can tell he's constantly trying to cover his bases. I agree that last week's Beastcast had a great lineup. If they had replaced Austin with Danny it would have been a 10/10.

>>319638506
Drew's just really inoffensive. And he plays interesting stuff.
>>
Austin is basically as good as Vinny when you compare him to Alex, especially for GOTY. He digs his fucking heels in so hard defending whatever Nintendo rehash came out this year and then sulks like a little faggot when he eventually has to give it up because no one else in the room gives a fuck about it.

You have a personal top 10 for a reason you fucking pencil, also why does he always bring up "muh depression/anxiety." Dan does it too and it's fucking annoying.
>>

>He digs his fucking heels in so hard defending whatever Nintendo rehash came out this year and then sulks like a little faggot when he eventually has to give it up because no one else in the room gives a fuck about it.
this literally has never happened

Alex knows he generally has different tastes than everyone and concedes. He likes to at least have a chance to talk about his picks but doesn't fight about it. Brad is the one who pushes constantly for his own shit even though nobody else cares.
>>
>>319639291
did you not listen to him prattle on and on about fucking jazzpunk of all games?
>>
>>319639407
>Jazzpunk
>Nintendo rehash
:^)

also most of them like Jazzpunk
>>
>>319638506
i think people only like drew because he is considered attractive. like all those people who only like female youtubers because they are hot.

someone said before jason has some sort of disease and that's why he looks the way he does.
>>
>>319636009

naw man austin's goty is broout4

i predict mario maker winning
>>
austin, is good.
>>
It doesn't take a retard to guess that MGSV will be their GOTY. It's the only game that the entire staff has played and most of them have finished it as well.
>>
>>319638934

He has a point, though. Calling something in your game an 'apartheid' can definitely be seen as something done simply for the shock value of it.
>>
Does anyone even care about what their GOTY is? It's usually a shit choice anyway and it seems like they only do it because there are no games to cover during this period.
>>
>>319639697
>someone said before jason has some sort of disease and that's why he looks the way he does.
oh... now i feel like a jerk.

>drew is considered attractive
he's not even that good looking

>>319639989

of course we fucking care, the goty lists on gb get more hits than anything on the site
>>
>>319639989
>Does anyone even care
Not really. I use GOTY stuff to make a mental list of potentially good titles I missed out on during the year. I don't give a damn what someone else's favourite game is.
>>
>>319639890
And I've heard almost the entire staff give the game shit for one reason or another. There are less flawed games out there according to them.
>>
>>319636009

jeff will put his foot down and mario maker will be GOTY, MGSV will be in second place
>>
>>319639989
gb goty has always been a collection of personal opinions but people always treat it like an objective list which is funny, and also the videos and podcasts are good.
>>
Am I the only one who doesn't like Jason? Dude is boring as fuck, he claims to be the "fighting game" dude but I rarely see him win. The Soul Calibre bombastica was fucking embarrassing because Dan won almost every single fight. Outside of fighting games he doesn't seem to really know anything else. He's kind of a buzz kill like Patrick.
>>
>Austin being a huge fan of Virtual On
nah he's alright in my book. He is still redeemable unlike Klepek
>>
>>319639890
Yeah. They all seem to think very highly of it despite how disappointing it was in the worst ways it could've been. Brad is the one who has the most reservations about it, surprisingly enough.

If it was finished and the story wasn't so sparse and shitty it would be GOTY, easily.
>>
>>319639917
If you think it's tacky, that's one thing. If you think it's oppressive and publicly make that known, take the two minutes to confirm that the game doesn't actually conform to your opinions (minorities should make more games about their experiences) before sticking all your twitter followers on the developers.
>>
>>319640284
>Brad is the one who has the most reservations about it, surprisingly enough.
Not surprising at all. He's said for years he doesn't consider MGS to be a good series.

I just enjoy listening to them talk about video games. I'm not particularly invested in the outcome or anything.
>>
>>319640226

Every game this year has been flawed. Bloodborne has been the closest thing to a perfect game this year and only Brad and Dan have finished it. If it goes to anything other than MGSV it will be because half of the crew are just agreeing to get it over and done with.
>>
You guys think anyone will fight hard enough for Witcher 3 to get on the top 5 like Vinny did for W2?
>>
>>319640440

no, but top 10 games no doubt, possibly number 7 or 8
>>
>>319640337

That's exactly what I got from Austin's tweet. Did he say it was the name was oppressing anyone?
>>
>>319640370
I haven't heard any flaws from Rocket League or Mario Maker.
>>
>>319640440

I don't think that anyone has finished The Witcher except for maybe Austin. Every they say that they are going back to play it for GOTY discussions they always store end up playing something else. I don't honestly think they can give GOTY to the one game that no one has finished.
>>
>Dan is the only one who's played Undertale
thank god
>>
>>319640512

did anyone at giant bomb even beat w3?

austin, maybe

No UPF for two weeks

>hurr thanksgiving
>hurr getting used to the new office

I bet this week Jeff is sick too.
>>
i wanted to kill myself when austin called barret from FFVII "Blacksploitation"
>>
>>319640596
austin and vinny have too

>>319640606
nope, dan got pretty deep in though (skellige, novigrad(?), up to ugly baby in gross swamptown.
>>
>>319640596
And Austin.
>>
>>319640561
I think that both of those are easy locks for the top 5. I'm sure that Jeff and Dan are going to be pushing pretty hard for Mario Maker to be GOTY or at the very least in the top 3.

As much as I enjoy Mario Maker I really don't think it has any place being GOTY since it's just a Mario level creator.
>>
>>319640717
Do you know what blaxploitation is?
>>
>tfw no GOTY discussion until the fucking 24th

why in the fuck do they give us the good stuff that late, just do it now, fuck
>>
>>319640596
Jeff mentioned playing it a few weeks ago. It's so short that he likely finished it in time for GOTY stuff. I'm sure it's going to at least be in the top 10. Deservedly so.
>>
>>319640706
UPF is shit now anyway.
>>
>>319640793

But anon we will have tons of content between now and then.....oh wait
>>
>>319640547
Yes, by the way it was phrased. Obviously you do not agree. Let's jump to the part of the conversation where you say SJWs are just a boogie man that certainly don't exist, and I say "okay fine that is your opinion," and you go back to threads where you talk about how censoring video games aren't actually censorship?
>>
>>319640789

That austin is a fucking faggot?
>>
>>319639989
It's just fun to hear them hash it out. A lot more interesting than the actual list that comes out of it.
>>
>>319640269
>Austin being a huge fan of Virtual On

Yeah man he'll bring EXVS to the studio any day now!
>>
>>319640717
Stop being a reactionary idiot. Blaxplotation is not necessarily a negative term. Also he's right.

>>319640243
Jeff doesn't seem *that* high on Mario Maker. He plays it fairly consistently yeah, but every time he mentions it he treats it like something that he just comes back to between big releases to fuck around with.

Though I guess he hasn't exactly heaped praise on any game this year, that I can recall.
>>
>>319641147

jeff will push mario maker to the goty spot, the mas wasn't so hyped about a game since 2006
>>
>>319640440
One hand nearly everyone on staff seems to think it's hands down one of the most impressive games of the year, on the other almost nobody on staff seems to want anything to do with it anymore.
>>
>>319641147
He's said mutliple times that he thinks it's the best thing Nintendo has done since OoT. Which I think is kind of ridiculous, personally.
>>
just give me the latest demo derby. I'm about to have lunch
>>
>>319641147
Jeff was disappointed in everything this year, including Just Cause 3 the one thing he was hyped for.
>>
>>319638817
What is this joke? Did Austin fail his PhD thesis multiple times?
>>
>>319639989
People care about the journey to goty, not the destination.
>>
>>319641045
I thought GB died when Ryan Davis did.
But I realise now that I didn't care too much for him in the first place.

He's the reason Destiny and Mass Effect 3 were in their overall top 10 in their respective years despite everyone else ragging on them. Oh and him complaining until Skyrim won in 2011.

GOTY is only to appease the tides of screeching turbonerds before they attempt to go out and mass sudoku
>>

vinny played 1, 2, and read the books although with his family life he might not have enough time for something like the witcher 3.
>>
>>319643135
I wonder if he acts like that all the time off camera. He must be insufferable to be around.
