I somehow managed to get to the front of the line for the Giant Bomb panel. I have no idea what happened. I kinda just want to go to a bar and watch a soccer game. The panel doesn't start for another hour and fifteen minutes...

Broadcast a mixlr stream!

Try to collect any skin flake samples you can get.

For, uh... research.
 
This line is dumb and too hot.

I got in early to see them setting up. Dan is peeing on all of the seats while Patrick is laughing so hard he's on the floor rolling around and Alex is just angrily yelling "fuck" over and over with his hands in the air. Jeff is playing a game on his phone and Drew and Jason are filming the ceiling for some reason. This is pretty cool.
 
So yeah, Metal Gear Scanlon got me wanting to play MGS1 again so I did. First tried to get it running on an emulator but it had weird glitches and I had to faf about ripping the iso when I completely forgot I could just play it from the disc so I shoved it into the PS3 instead.

I forgot how quickly they throw bosses at you at the start. Ocelot, Tank, Grey Fox, Mantis all very very close to one another. I stopped just before going to fight Mantis and am very much looking forward to seeing Drew go at it with him. Good thing the PS3 emulation allows swapping of controller ports.

Also, I did the Ocelot fight dodging bullets in first person and using C4 like in the video that was linked. Dodging is so easy and looks hella cool weaving between the shots.
 
I know it's not GB's fault but it fucking sucks that the panel is not streaming. Not only we can't see it until next week but we'll get everything spoiled on Twitter.... Ughhhh
 
Alex and Dan were conspiring with Johnny V before the show. Dave Lang walked in with a fucking suitcase. John Drake is running around whispering into people's ears.

Bad stuff is going to happen.
 
What's the reasoning for no stream? Just shit planning on PAX's part - which is unsurprising..
Basically. Something like they're cheap and don't wanna pay the costs of being the boss.

It's like our very own Giantbomb war correspondent.
 
They haven't had their panel yet ? Don't they do this in the afternoon, usually ?

No they always do it in the evening so that they don't have anybody after them. They can stretch it a bit longer that way.


I wish GB would take a 4G hotspot or something to stream it. Fuck PAX.
 
Jeff should really do a mixlr stream at least, but I'm guessing that a room full of mobile signals isn't going to be the easiest place to stream from.
 
So has anyone else heard that Suburban All-Stars skit where Brendan / The Ricker reads a Penthouse forum letter? It's really, uh, somethin'.
 
PAX messed up for not live streaming GiantBomb's show. Next year, GiantBomb Expo. It's all about F1, TV Guide.com, Wrestling, Fast Food, Hip Hop, Anime, and maybe a bit of video games?
 
I don't want to get people overly excited... But wasn't there a relatively recent PAX where Drew managed to get the Panel video up the same night? I hope I didn't just dream that.
