If they only hire straight white american males again and parts of the internet get in a tizzy about it.... I think we made a very wise investment with our current thread title.

I would be in a bit of a tizzy about it too tbh

Huh. I just realized if they hire a new editor that guy (or gal) is the replacement for Austin.
Dude left nearly a year ago.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
If people wants commentary when watching Arnold movies (speaking of Commando), there is no one better than Arnold himself.
Total Recall
Conan the Barbarian
Terminator 3
and for a bonus, Ben Affleck shitting on Armageddon in the commentary.

that's fucking riddikulus.
especially considering i'm pretty sure jeff mentioned austin gave them hella notice. isn't the whole point of notice so they can try and fill that void as smoothly as possible?

It would be a deeply disappointing hire for me if this was the case.

I mean, Dan replaced Austin. This is Dan's replacement they're hiring.

Yup.
I don't care about the persons gender or race nor does Jeff and everyone involved in the hiring process i wish we could get past this fucking argument every time a hire comes in. They aren't sitting in a room crossing off the names of non-white straight men. I, like them, care about the best person that suits that job and that's the person i and everyone else here should want.

I just purchased an 8TB external drive for my PS4 from Amazon. Man, it's gonna feel so good to not need to worry about space! The majority of space will be taken up by my physical games (42 of them). I've calculated that I need around 1.5 of space for them. So, I assume, with all my physical and digital games installed, I'll still have around 3-4ish TB remaining!

I did enjoy him losing his mind in the P2 playdate.
I haven't watched this, now I have to. How the F did I miss this.
Thank you.

You are in for a ride.

I actually played through this when I was like 13, so let's see how much I remember haha.
I just hope the new hire isn't primarily a writer. I'm selfish but I really don't care about text on the site.

I only got to it today, so I'm sure it was said, but Bakalar's take on Uggs was fantastic.

you and everybody else that consumes Giant Bomb content
maybe not the best metric, but the latest guest column has five comments on it (one of which is from Hassun, whose presence in a Giant Bomb comments section is almost a given)

Jeoff said they were getting rid of the News thing on the site.

Written content? What's that? Like, a listicle or something?
In theory but Jeff also recently said that they couldn't even begin the process to replace Drew until after he left.
Just so you guys know, I'm the new hire and I plan on starting a D&D podcast and a premium series where I play games with in-depth create a player features and another premium series where I play some BeamNG.drive and another where I fuck around with Skyrim mods and then I might eat some Skylanders.
Taking suggestions also.

Great, now I've fallen down a FMVinny wormhole and I got Phantasmagoria 2 vids and Contradiction: Spot The Liar queued up.

Have you heard about this game called "Minecraft"? I hear it's really popular with the kids.
The Contradiction play through is great, funny as all hell, the acting, soooo good.

He is from whatsgoodinter.net
I don't quite get the "best person for the job" argument, as it suggests there is a singular person that would work and that's it. They aren't filling a precise square hole. Personality and experience informing the things they would produce and participate in on the site would come to define how a potential hire would fit into the GB scheme, not the other way around. It would have been a fantastic failure if they had just tried to hire another Ryan after he passed. Unique voices and the way they interact with the crew on video and audio are what make new hires so exciting, and while that in no way precludes more straight white men...well, Peter Brown certainly eases into working with the crew, but he's kinda baby Jeff.

And fuck everything else, that whole thing with those two at E3 was the best running bit the site ever had. Joke got in and got out while the getting was good.
They couldn't handle his horniness so he had to go work for Vice.
Austin Walker
And I'll react to you reacting to Harry Styles, I might even get some teens and/or elderly people in on it.
James Bond?
