Not necessarily a quick look, but I guess it's a new segment they're going to start running?

Building With Brad: The PC
You mean PC games? With benchmarks? On Giantbomb? :lol

Boxes seemed empty besides the DVD burner, you can't just wobble around a GTX 260.
Still I was looking forward to something more informative.
 
When they announced it on I Love Mondays I was excited, then I watched that and, while it was funny, I was disappointed. I was hoping they'd actually go through everything while still having some humor.
 
That Smash RC racing game looks kinda nice. I looooove RC racing games. Re-Volt was one of my favorite games back in the hay-day. Any word on how good it is?

Why are they playing RE5 at 1280X720? Even if they have it hooked up to a 720p TV they should probably be at 1366x768.

They record it in 720p I think. I don't think they can change it. I might be wrong though.

Wolfenstein - 688
Madden 10 - 1,100

Looks like someone's having a shot. Can't wait for that quick look :lol

I wonder if dudes rented Madden just to push the numbers up... because I didn't see Madden beating out Wolfenstein either. Doh. :lol
 
To me, Brad seems like the "coolest" guy in game journalism. By that, I mean the person I would most like to hang out with and just shoot the shit about games.

God dammit Brad there's a giant red arrow pointing pointing to the X button when you hop on a Super Battle Droid why don't you press it?!?!?

:D

/dev rant
Did you design the UI per chance?
If you're under an NDA of some sort its ok if you cant answer.

I didn't - I was a QA tester on the Wii and PS2 version of the game, which actually has a quite different UI to its Xbox 360 / PS3 brother.

Wow, RE5 looks good on low settings. Guess my laptop can handle it! Looks like a great port, but please tell me online co-op is still in.
Trust me, it doesn't look good at all. It's just because the video is such at such a low resolution. It looks like Dead Rising on the Wii (but with weird lighting). Hell the textures on the zombies (or whatever they're refered to in RE5) might look even worse.
 
Haahaa, that shot looked horrible. I probably would have thrown up.

I wanted to see dave take the shot though. Either way I played Wolfenstien but not Madden.
 
Dave should've milked the "shot" for all it's worth

Poured a double shot in the cup. no chase for 2 mins etc.

That was excellent.

That's exaggeration. It looks worse, but not even close to as bad as Dead Rising on Wii. When all the settings are on low, there's mainly 2 things which look bad: textures in general and the enemies. Otherwise it looks like alright. But well, anyway, it's still quite demanding even with settings on low.

There's a benchmark out so people can just try that if they're uncertain whether the game will run well.
