We talk about airplanes and drive-ins and video games and Metal Gear! Someone said "Sad Factory" and that was pretty funny! See you at PAX!

Yikes, not touching this until I know the extent of the Metal Gear talk. Giant Bomb plays fast and loose with those spoilers sometimes. Lookin' at you Brad.
 
Starting at 12 minutes they start going into heavy MGS1-4 Metal Gear Solid talk.

Thanks for the complements, I had to pull out all the stops since nobody had the thread planned.

I don't think they've played it since they didn't attend the review event, but Brad is definitely known to forget about release dates for the average public and inadvertently spoiling them.

I like how the two pictures are 9 pixels off in width, accurately portraying an "oh so close" but not quite lazy pos OP.

Since they seem to like talking about MGS I hope they just put a spoiler warning in the next few couple of weeks up front and just talk about MGSV openly. I don't care about the spoilers but trying to talk around stuff is just annoying to listen to, especially when you don't know what they're talking about.

Brad doesn't do warnings

Better yet, no MGSV talk at all and they have a spoiler cast instead like they did when MGS4 came out.

This first ad may be the best post-Vinny one yet.

How many times has Jeff said: "don't start the show with a showstopper"? Breaking his own rule.

Oh yeah I'm ready to rip out my ear buds at a moment's notice from Brad and MGS V spoils.
It's not a big deal. No one on the staff has played the full game and they don't talk about it. Just the rest of the series.

Everyone chill the fuck out.
