[ratcliffja]

Ah ok. By the wording I thought you deserted to the super best friends thread or somethin'.


Everyone used the warp pipes. Don't believe anyone who says otherwise.

Use the super-secret continue code that they shared on the Bombcast last week or the week before.

I've used both of these. I'm currently on 8-1 on my 3DS. I think the farthest I've gotten is 8-2.

So is Barry-O dropping in for UPF today or what?

Might have to clear my Friday night schedule

I totally beat it the normal way but it was the All Star version back then if that makes a difference.

Not really, my girlfriend is currently in China. Also valentines day is bullshit anyway so don't sweat it.

 

[BobTheFork]

MY GF and I broke up a few months ago so I'm spending Valentine's day with Gary Stern and Johnny Walker.

 

[ratcliffja]

I'll be spending Valentine's Day at Disney World with my wife. We're going for our 5 year anniversary, which is on the 20th. I'm really excited, but I also have no idea what I'm going to get her.

A GB premium sub seems like the obvious choice here.

I'm sick so i'm going to be spending my valentines day playing games. Might even give Windwaker HD another try if i'm feeling particularly loose cannon.

More retro games on Giant Bomb is always a good thing.

PAX East Panel with Greg (and Greg, and other nice panelists)
Game Review Over: Critiquing the Way We Critique Games

Are game reviews dead? YouTube and Twitch are popular platforms for sharing criticism. The myth of the objective game review is a hot topic. In an era where game formats are changing—episodic and early access experiences have us questioning what makes a game "reviewable"—Is traditional coverage becoming irrelevant? How do you avoid spoilers, or is spoiler sensitivity too high? We'll discuss with attendees what they want to see in reviews, and whether reviews have outlived their usefulness.

PANELISTS:
Alexa Ray Corriea [Editor, GameSpot], Marty Sliva [Editor, IGN], Susan Arendt [High Queen, The games writing universe], Jeff Gerstmann [Co-founder and Editor, Giant Bomb], Greg Miller [Founder, Kinda Funny], Tess [Streamer]

Damn, definitely going to this. It ends like an hour before the GB panel!

 

[ThreePiMatt]

The problem with an all-Molyneux UPF is that I don't think anyone on the staff is a big Dungeon Keeper fan, which is clearly the best game Molyneux ever made.

No Dan listed for the PAX East Panel.

Hey Dan! Are you going to PAX East?

Also on Saturday:

Making Video Sausage with Giant Bomb & GameSpot

The continent-spanning video production teams of Giant Bomb and GameSpot convene to pull back the curtain for a behind the scenes look at how they make stupid internet videos.

PANELISTS:
Mary Kish [Producer, GameSpot], Drew Scanlon [Producer, Giant Bomb], Vinny Caravella [Producer, Giant Bomb], Jason Oestreicher [Producer, Giant Bomb], Robert Handlery [Producer, GameSpot]

*faints* I don't even need to care about the topic.

 

[ratcliffja]

The only trade show I've ever been to is E3. Does Giant Bomb have some sort of E3 show on the floor?

Edit: I'm a little disappointed that making video sausage doesn't involve real sausage.

No. Gamespot traditionally has had a stage.

But GB tends to do interviews during the day.

 

[SlowRevolution]

surprised Danny's not on the video production panel.

maybe that would make the universe explode or something.

 

[AuthenticM]

New Demo Derby on Monday.

Major bummer. I hoped to one day meet one of the guys.

 

[Patryn]

The GB panel and PAXAMANIA! are both in Albion, which I believe streamed last year, assuming it's the same room.

The Video Sausage panel is in Bobcat, which likely means no streaming.

 

[daydream]

no one playing the puyo online? guess japan is still sleeping

if anyone's up to play, lemme know

 

[Shiny Llama]

Filmed in the GBEast studio.

 

[Patryn]

Honestly, a PAX would be your best bet. I've always gotten the feeling from their E3 coverage that they're really far too busy to be able to greet people.

They even say that the main reason they go to PAXes is to interact with fans.

 

[broncobuster]

At least one game on that dvd should be fun to watch.

Yeah but I'll never be able to do a PAX since they don't have them in Southern California.

I don't really care if it's streamed or not but I hope the video production will be filmed this year.

Jeff should let Rorie host the Giant Bomb panel.

Adding to tchocky's post here is Jeffs 2014 drive with Alex , Greg Kasavin & Danny!

I listened to this again recently. Such a great cast. I could listen to them talk about the old days any time.

EDIT: I just remembered that I sent a welcome back message to Steve after his last ban ended in December. That duder.
