Killzone 2: 5:46

They have the most awesome way of getting around the 3 minute footage embargo. :lol

That was so awesome :lol

Giantbomb should do that for all quick looks, even if they don't have get around weird 3 minute embargoes.

 

[Struct09]

OK, I'm on board. These Quick Looks are clever, I really enjoyed the Burnout and Killzone ones.

In a post 1upocaltypic world I'm starting to really dig what Giant Bomb is doing.

 

[FinFan]

The Burnout Party clip is a trip. These guys have the best job ever.

[Blast Processing]

Thanks, Giant Bomb, you guys just sold me on Valkyria Chronicles.

 

[Doytch]

I never play JRPGs, FFIV is the only one I've ever finished, and I kinda want to play Valkyria Chronicles. Are there any plans for a 360 port?

I found that one terribly boring. No offense Brad and the other guy.. but you're no Jeff and Ryan.

 

[WickedCobra03]

It is kind of like Kotaku's videopodcasts except with more emphisis on the previewing aspect. I like the more raw footage if you will instead of simply taking random vertical slices of the game...

 

[Gowans]

Not a Quick Look but a the first in a Life length look at Persona 4 as they finish it (or get as far as they can) in 15min chunks.

Persona 4 Part 1 - 16:53

Five parts later: "We can finally start playing it!"

It's an awesome game, really unique....and haven’t heard anything about being ported to 360, kina doubt that it will be but who knows.

But back on topic-yes, giant bomb is awesome

 

[PuppetMaster]

Man Persona4 looks so freakin good. It pains me that I don't have a machine that can play it right now.

Why don't they port this to the Wii or PSP

Because it's already perfect on ps2

 

[Darklord]

I hate JRPG's but the persona 4 video is great. I love the commentary. The dialog in that game is so bad.:lol

Edit: The ending of the first part is hilarious.:lol

 

[Geoff9920]

Giantbomb crew playing persona? Gotta see this. :lol

 

[Brobzoid]

haha, that persona feature is great. Why does a rpg today still use that narration style, that's so old school. Like Quintet old. damn.

 

[Psychotext]

Persona 4 Part 2 - 12:10

Got a couple of genuine laughs out of that. :lol

 

[Railer]

Mushroom Men - 18:11

 

[Psychotext]

Persona 4 - Part 3 - 15:58

Some funny stuff. Will find myself looking forward to this if it goes on in the same way.

 

[ghostmind]

The Persona 4 playthrough idea is brilliant - I actually want to try the game now...

 

[Cipher]

Yeah, this Persona 4 endurance run is really getting me interested in the game.

 

[Ramenman]

The controller passing in the Burnout Party Pack one made me laugh.

It's so perfect.

 

[Haeleos]

Holy shit :lol

That was hilarious. :lol

I really shouldn't be watching those since I'll get the game eventually (PAL land), but I can't take my eyes away. It has the potential to be the true gaming equivalent to Heart of Darkness.

Also, Double Dragon (movie) video review:

Flower - 13:45

They also reviewed it, 5/5

 

[Brobzoid]

does the flower quick look spoil anything worth experiencing first-hand? I'm really trying to go into this thing with a blank slate, but I so want to watch it. I shouldn't... no....

 

[Danne-Danger]

Just wait one day (or a few hours).

 

[sykoex]

Yeah you should ignore it. Flower is the kind of game you want to go into completely fresh.

 

[Brobzoid]

eta: 16 hours. >:|

I should score some mescaline... >.>

Looks great can't wait to play tonight.

 

[Pop On Arrival]

The persona 4 videos are indeed hilarious. I feel like I could watch one of those for hours.

What...

 

[Alphahawk]

They were talking about the Jaguar on the latest bombcast and Jeff said "Ok next quick look: Jaguar." It was obviously a joke, but I would love to see this.

 

[mileS]

Quick Looks are great. I'm so glad they are starting to do more and more of them now.

The Flower quick look was :lol


also.. I really need to get Persona 4!

 

[Gowans]

Killzone 2s multi looks great. I really hope it encourages voice chat I hate online without good communication.

As for the quicklook the 3min limit on KZ2 footage killed it a bit, the dubbed Jeff was great but the edits and pace made it seem just like any other video preview than what Giant Bombs quick looks have become.

Yeah, it's not my favorite way to cover a game, but I guess I can understand them not wanting people to run off and post video of the entire game or something. Plus, between the article I wrote about the game's multiplayer and the past couple of podcasts, I feel like we've discussed just about everything that I'd cover in one of those Quick Looks.

Besides, not covering Killzone to death leaves me and Vinny more time to play Persona 4.

 

[wolfmat]

Additionally, you can still make another quick look later down the line. One that's in the spirit of the series.

 

[Kritz]

Should have dubbed the Persona 4 videos "Slow Look".

 

[Pop On Arrival]

Besides, not covering Killzone to death leaves me and Vinny more time to play Persona 4.

And that's all that matters.

 

[Nintaiyo]

Wow, Giant Bomb sure is putting up a lot of videos these days. Keep them coming!

Thanks Jeff, these are really appreciated.

There is something really refreshing about viewing a unedited section of a game along with discussion. I have also checked out a few videos of games I would never have looked at because of this.

It's really the opposite effect of the chopped up action trailers that turn me off and don't give any indication of how you would feel with a game along with a mini podcast over the top and I love them for that.

[Darklord]

8.8? Really?

I know, it deserved lower.

Spoiler

Get over it.

Edit: Or are you talking about the persona 4 Pt4 video? I just noticed that.:lol

.. dude, Jeff Gerstmann. 8.8. Why so low et cetera.

 

[Fantastical]

Giant Bomb is one of my favorite sites now, and the constant videos that they are putting on the site are really helping.

A cool video from Vinny talking about what's going on GB. Shows some cool redesign stuff as well, for those who edit there (like me)!
