Yep, I've genuinely reached the old age of 21 and never experienced it before.

Though like I said, other than the WM t-shirts I've only imported one or two things in my life. Not like you with all your XXX anime from Japan, Orgun!

Eh okay, I take back my rage at Whiskey then. I'll jot it down to a learning experience. I genuinely didn't know about custom fees etc, I thought that's what I was paying for with the extra postage. :(

How much did you pay for the hoodie? I don't know the British customs rules, but here in Denmark you don't have to pay customs for stuff that costs less than $25. It's worth looking into at least.

It's Giant Bomb, of course there will be, but they wouldn't put them in the official billing since they likely won't know who until showtime.

Yeah. Would probably be willing to bet money that Alex shows up at the very least, given that it's east coast. Probably Johnny V if he's there as well.

They're never even going to make it to the theater. Patrick is going to cut the brakes on the rental car.

Holy shit, watching Rise of Flight QL and just accidentally actively cheered when
they bombed the ship!
DVD is the best quick look team in the history of Giant Bomb.

I need a follow up video or at least pictures on those pizzas.
It was such a tease showing how thick those pizzas are but not showing anything but the crust.

Too bad about the ME3 podcast. I figured it would be a pure shill episode, but what can ya do. Hopefully BioWare isn't sponsoring the next podcast anyway. lol

I knew there would be an emergency TNT today. I was expecting boardgames, but Tribes Ascend should be nice too :)

Also, nice Big Van Vader reference in the Jar Time title.

There should be 2 Bombcasts

1. Dave, Vinny, Drew, and Brad
2. Vinny, Ryan, Patrick, and Jeff

"Podcast 1" can be premium. Vinny must spend 4 hours a week podcasting. I demand this.

I've had too much sugar.

Eh, I might find time to go visit the Giant Bomb panel at PAX East. I'll be there anyway to speak on the UGC panel.

Honestly not sure what you guys wanted from the ME3 podcast. Vinny brought up the pre order bullshit, Patrick brought up that some people want no dlc/iphone/website email spam shit/multi and wanted to make sure you could still get the "best" ending.

Sorry not everyone is a jerk/troll just because it's bioware. Not like they were all gonna beat Hudson with steel chairs and yell "YO we from the internet bioware sucks now fool, why y'all so shitty bitches!".

Just listen to it. Mostly pr style answers but to expect anything else out of him is crazy.

From the stuff I specifically mentioned?

Yes you can get "best" ending without Multiplayer/iphone etc.

Have to plan man hours+money for dlc/pre order stuff in advance, but stuff is flexible until last few months before launch because any changes to the plan at that time = expensive overtime.

I dunno, if it's a shill cast, I'd rather they not have done it.

I know video game websites are just PR vehicles anyway (herpaderp), but since they don't have corporate masters and don't take ads from random game companies, I'd rather they just not participate in that process at all.

They talk a bit about the actual design/development process as well, which I at least found fairly interesting.
