If you're a Giant Bomb member you get a free Gamespot membership coupon

Honestly, I didn't even know Gamespot still had subs. Even looking on their site while logged in I can't find anything.

I had to Google 'Gamespot Total Access' to find this comparison chart:

I would sub again if I wasn't already subbed for quite a while already, just because of that Eye of the Tiger rendition.

 

[Typographenia]

Membership sale!

Complete with insane background rendition of eye of the tiger. My god.

Dang it, I'm so weak.

Spoiler

But this is a good weakness.

 

[AcridMeat]

Damn the no-coupon with it. I want to resubscribe, but I also want the coupon so I can get the duder shirt finally.

 

[firehawk12]

Did the free GameSpot coupons already go out?

 

[rollingstart]

what is that countdown for? how many $35 remain or those gamespot codes

anyway, is there a paypal option?

 

[renitou]

Are subscribers able to download videos, or has that yet to be sorted out post buyout?

Worth a sub for that functionality, but otherwise disinterested.

I can still download videos. HD, High, Low, and Mobile qualities. Same as always.

Next week it seems.

Yeah, it's just how many they are still selling at that price.

You can get RSS feeds for the videos, that I run through iTunes, so I can watch glorious HD quick looks o y tv. Worth it

 

[JAVK]

Just a heads up;

I done the re-up. Got the code in my email but when I went to apply it I got an error. However it still seemed to extend my membership to 2013.

I had the same thing happen when I redeemed mine.

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

As long as you are an active subscriber to our premium program on April 19th, 2012 you will also recieve a separate email within the next SEVEN days that includes a redeamable coupon for Game Spot's Total Access premium plan.

GOD DAMN IT

 

[Jasper Avenue]

Probably going to take them up on this offer. I like downloading their videos so I can watch them while on the treadmill.

 

[Fox Mulder]

I was really close to subscribing right before the whiskey split because Tested and GB were two of my go to sites, but is it worth it now that I'm just getting GB content now?

I haven't been to gamespot since high school and don't really care about comic vine.

 

[obonicus]

Does this mean my active monthly GB membership will get a yearly total access account for 2012?

Dave just tweeted that monthly memberships 6+ months older will get it too.

 

[Typographenia]

GOD DAMN IT

It's difficult to grammar when you're stirring chili with one hand and typing with the other.

Look back through the premium content pages. I think the past year's content versus what they did prior speaks for itself.

Holy crap. Watch this (premium):

[Dr. Zombutler]

Think I'm gonna buy a year sub for 35$ tomorrow. Do you guys think they'll still have some left by tomorrow? Am I paranoid? How fast are they going?

It seems like a lot of people already have one(on the GB forums at least), so you should be good.

 

[Corran Horn]

Finally got a premium membership.

 

[MG310]

From John Davison's twitter - Brad smashing up some walls in the office...hopefully there's video of this stuff happening too.

Wow, that safety gear was incredibly well timed.

 

[Dany]

I feel emasculated now.

lol he's wearing the construction items that were sent in, and yeah, I hope there is a video.

 

[Felix Lighter]

If there is not a video of that event, I will cancel my subscription.

Spoiler

that is a joke

 

[shadyspace]

I don't want to start another "thing" so I'll just say Ryan's twitter has been awfully revealing tonight.

 

[Conceited]

I miss Vinny.

I don't think they sold out during the thanksgiving one, so I think you'll be fine.


Brad has gone mad with power. That, or Patrick and Alexis said they were going on vacation and he would be responsible for all video duties now.

 

[theRizzle]

Re-upped. Mine was running out in January I guess, so now I am good into 2014. WOO.

There is so much dust on me, and I think I held a sledgehammer. Sure, Monday, sure.


Hope there is video of this madness.

 

[LuchaShaq]

Do you think there is any chance I can sell whatever gamespot coupon they are giving out for anything? Honestly would rather have 10$ than even a lifetime gamespot premium account.

I don't see why not, as long as you aren't doing it on the GB or GS forums or something.

 

[Dany]

Selling something you got for free?

 

[Antiwhippy]

Holy shit how the hell did vinny put 70 hours into deus ex?

 

[Felix Lighter]

Vinny doesn't just beat games. He pulverizes them into a fine powder.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Did he basically hack everything in the game?

Not sure why, but I find this so funny coming from Trick.

I love Mondays.

I keep telling everyone that Patrick is the secret funniest guy on the crew. It's impossible for me to not hear his voice when reading the last line.

I nearly lost it when he said "I got kinda bored with it..."

WELL NO SHIT VINNY

Is the premium subs worth it? Just got a paycheck and feel like blowing some cash

 

[Felix Lighter]

Is the premium subs worth it? Just got a paycheck and feel like blowing some cash

I think so. The transition has interrupted some of the semi regular video series like Random PC and Load Your Last Save but if this is your first time subscribing you have hours and hours of premium videos to catch up on anyway.

 

[theRizzle]

Is the premium subs worth it? Just got a paycheck and feel like blowing some cash

I think it's definitely worth it. Especially at 35 bucks. You will get hours and hours of content for that money.

My favorite stuff on GB right now is Jar Time. Jeff rarely gets that serious and "real", even on the podcast.

 

[sixghost]

Subscribe for a month($5) and see if you like the premium stuff they do, if you're unsure.

 

[shadyspace]

Right now it is.

 

[Risible]

I was one the fence about getting a sub - $35 and the chance to see Vinny losing his fucking mind dealing with his newborn drove me over the edge.

I am now a proud GB subscriber and just watched Greatest King Caravella make his video debut.

 

[KorrZ]

Holy shit how the hell did vinny put 70 hours into deus ex?

That seems ridiculously crazy. I did every single side quest, foxiest of the hounds and pacifist on give me deus ex difficulty and still beat the game in about 32 hours.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

I can't remember my first DX:HR time exactly, but I guess it was 30 or so. I cannot imagine how it could take 70. Like, unless you were playing multiple games of it side by side or stopping to stare at every wall.
