    the mystery that unfolds is that your pregnant wife is accused of muttering her father. Eventually you prove that while she shot him, he was murdered a week later and she could not have done it. Then you discover it was her half brother from an affair that her father had. Then it’s revealed that you are that brother, it was you all along!!!!!!! Dun dun dunnnn

    You just…forgot.

    Then it’s further revealed that none of this happened this is you thinking through futures and finally deciding not to do an incest to your unknowing sister. A profile in courage. The end.

    WOW

    OKAY

    It's really impossible to talk about 12 Minutes without talking about the movie Oldboy, is the thing

    So hearing Vinny talk about 12 minutes last week, I was like.. oh, this sounds like it could be enjoyable, or at least an experience, and he seems pretty positive on it!

    This week, the Nextlander crew touched on it. And... hoooooly shit was the attitude different.

    So I did something I never do, and I looked up the plot.

    WHAT THE FUCK?!

    I like Gerstmann's take, there are two kinds of opinions about 12 Minutes

    There are people who think it's pretty interesting, and there are people who have finished it, to paraphrase

    If Kojima and David Cage collaborated, I fully expect it to be along the lines of 12 Minutes.

    Figured they'd wait until Jeff was done with paternity leave before even thinking about bringing back the science. Though given how he described his home life, maybe he thinks he can sneak in more work time?

    Curious if they'll have Ben guest on it or if he's just doing podcast duty for a few weeks.

    A news report on Oct. 2, 2021(JST) falsely claims that Giant Bomb™ is supplying gifs to drive speculation for a relaunch of the hit show, "Ranking of Fighters." To ensure correct understanding among our investors and customers, we want to clarify that this report is not true.

    That's.. kind of plain. I was thinking it would be like a twitch channel info, where each show would have its own title card (and the pure list like that would be a toggle).

    I've actually missed several UPF's at this point, after years of watching them all. I was planning on catching up still, but the backlog grows....
