Let's talk about Giant Bomb! DROBOT IS SKYLANDER OF THE YEAR

Antimatter

Previous thread for archival purposes!

Whiskey Media is like if the Gawker network wasn't terrible. Hosting tons of different review sites, they're really neat!

The most well-known Whiskey Media site, it was founded by Jeff Gerstmann and Ryan Davis after Jeff got fired from Gamespot because Kane and Lynch is a shitty game. They do quicklooks, the Giant Bombcast, and other various pieces of content that are very good.


The next most popular Whiskey site, Tested is helmed by Will Smith (who sadly isn't all that Fresh) and Norman Chan (Maximum PC and PC Gamer, respectively). They test a lot of dumb shit but it's a really good place to go for tech news and every week they're joined by Gary Whitta for the This Is Only a Test podcast.


Comic Vine is about comic books. I like comics, I'd say check it out if you do too.


Screened is their movie division. Operated by the drummer Alex Navarro and the puppy obsessed Matt Rorie, they write movie reviews.


Well, animes.
You can subscribe to their sites to get a bunch of neato Subscriber Videos, access to the mobile version of their site, etc, by going here and paying $4.95 a month or $49.95 a year (t-shirt still comes with the year subscription

Blake T

Where is bogey to bitterly lock this thread?

T4CT

Antimatter

Merely doing my posting duty, sirrah.

Wimble

the wording of your proposition makes me uncomfortable, natek

but I can't not love Bogey so I guess I am participating regardless of what I think about it!

T4CT

natek

PaperLuigi44

Hmm, I haven't watched a QL since the Train one and a few have popped up, which one do you folks recommend?

T4CT

like just

it's a crocodile in a hat




there's only one thing better in this world than that and it's this

Spoiler:

Spoiler:

this is a goat. his life is pretty shitty since he's basically exploited until he dies. but fucking look at him, he don't give no shit. he's got grass in his mouth and he's happy. IT'S JUST GRASS MISTER GOAT, say the people. YOU SHOULD FIGHT FOR MORE, say the people. but nope mister goat don't give two shits of a fiddle because he's got grass and that's all he needs to be a smiling happy goat.

SwissLion

I saw a huge STRAP IT ON! Saints Row ad on the side of a bus on my way Home and I laughed really loud

Luckily there were only like two other people on my bus to look at me strangely.

Tef

Man, my goats are so happy. I don't buy into this whole exploitation thing, they lead a pretty fantastic life on my farm.

I've also nearly finished tested's oktoberkast. No too bad so far. While I'm a big fan of giant bomb, tested runs a good second. Phone chat is fine by me and I wish there was more pc hardware chat, I may just have brain problems though

Ceno

All that War in the North QL does is make me pine for Dark Alliance 3.

Olivaw

For some reason I thought War in the North was going to be like Conquest, that LotR game from like three years ago that was like Battlefront but with orcs

It ended up looking pretty neat to me!

Uriel

I would like to watch more Giantbomb stuff. What I have seen I've liked.

But their site is super slow for me all the time.

Is this a firefox thing?

SimBen

Seems to be a you-thing. I use Firefox and I never had any problems.

Uriel

Maaaan, that sucks, I can't load anything on there ever, well, if I let it sit for 3 minutes it'll load.

SimBen

Their videos are all hosted on YouTube now, the rest is well, text and flash. Maybe update your flash player?

Moriveth

This game makes me want to put on a fake dick and fuck somebody.

Janson

What about Screened?

Moriveth

Yeah, Screened is awesome.

TheStig

wow that nascar game is ... not nascar

T4CT

YEAH @ANTIMATTER WHAT ABOUT SCREENED GOD

Antimatter

TELL ME SOMETHING ABOUT SCREENED SO I CAN PUT IT IN THERE WHY DON'TCHA

T4CT

SCREENED.COM IS THE PLACE WHERE PEOPLE TALK ABOUT MOVIES. IT'S OPERATED BY ALEX NAVARRO (WHO IS A DRUMMER) AND MATT RORIE (WHO HAS AN OBSESSION WITH PUPPIES THAT IN ANY OTHER CONTEXT WOULD BE CREEPY AND REALLY MAKE YOU WONDER ABOUT HIS SEXUAL PREFERENCES BUT FOR SOME REASON BECAUSE HE WRITES MOVIE REVIEWS WE GIVE HIM A PASS)

Antimatter

GIMME THE URL AND A FANCY SCHMANCY LOGO AND WE'LL CALL IT GOOD

T4CT

HTTP://WWW.SCREENED.COM

Janson

I like Screened because I usually agree with everything Alex Navarro says, so I know he is a reviewer I can (generally) trust.

Janson

Also, they have some really good articles.

There was a fantastic one on the script for Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang.

SimBen

Yeah well maybe you should marry Navarro.

T4CT

HEY @ANTIMATTER I FEEL LIKE YOU PUT MY DESCRIPTION THROUGH SOME COPY EDITING

Antimatter

Great artists steal. I'm not a great artist, so I changed it a bit.

T4CT

It's ok I still love you

I'm not angry, just disappointed

T4CT

fuck all my posts are so much better when you imagine them coming from this goat

Antimatter

i didn't want to plagiarizzzzzzzzze
