It looked like a 6 month boost for 50% bonus credits? I'm not familiar with the game but I'm pretty sure that's what I read.

For $60 you should just get whatever you want. The original game was $15 period.

Ha, that sounds fucking terrible.

Edit: Watching Ryan play this is depressing...

You're still paying real money for an opportunity to earn more virtual money. For 60 bucks I'm pretty sure you could buy the stuff you actually want twice over.

It's not a bad game, just a bad game for TNT.

40+ minute matches and an 8 player limit is not interesting at all.

Games actually pretty fun. TNT was kinda lame.

I find new players take it for more of a shooter than it is though. The moba parts like leveling and pushing lanes are much more important.

Yeah, not very entertaining to watch at all. At least we had Vinny's video antics to enjoy.

The game they should play on TNT is Magicka. I think that game has plenty of coop craziness but it would only work if they play with each other and I guess the multi-PC coop would be a logistical nightmare.

I totally already listened to this when it was live. I must have been doing some work at the same time because I only remember bits and pieces.

It's basically a two-hour video bombcast with Alexis, Dave, Ryan, Jeff and Brad shooting the shit.
Mostly Alexis and Dave talking about the stuff they are working on concerning the new site features and layout, what kind of things they want and don't want, programming languages, and answering calls from members.

Oooh that sounds pretty awesome, I love Alexis. Like, actual real love. I should really ask my bank to stop blocking all transactions made with them. Do you know if the purchases are going through CBSi now or if they're still functioning as Whiskey Media?

Alexis, you sure? He's not even that often in the videos, and when he appears he always so smug.

Alexis comes off as smug to you? I haven't seen a ton of him, but I certainly never got that vibe from him. If anything, he seemed a little shy--as most people are, as they're afraid of "getting in the way" of the usual GB crew.

Yeah I have certainly not seen him as smug either... I kind of like him, but yeah, have not seen him too much.

Part of their existing office? Part of their new office? Just something super random?

Was just playing some of the Hybrid beta with some buddies from XBLAFans and Brad randomly turned up in a match. So we of course made killing him a priority, haha. I wonder if they were recording a Quick Look of it, be cool to be immortalised on GiantBomb, don't think I've made it into any TNTs or anything.

As a follower of Davis' twitter, I found this funny. It would probably be higher if it reported the giantbomb api.
