Giant Bombcast

Giant Bombcast 01-11-2011

by Ross Adams in Games393 days ago

Jeff Gertsmann returns this week, with tales of go karting during his break. Before any game talk Vinny and Ryan discuss the movie Predators that they recently watched. Which leads onto a discussion of what Predator society might be like, surely there has be be an Costumer Service Predator? Brad regrets bringing up Tron: Evolution again as he learns it inevitably leads to discussion of Tron: Evolution which the guys agree is a bad game that could easily have been much better. Vinny talks about his varying emotions in relation to Dead Rising 2, he...

Giant Bombcast 11-30-2010

by Ross Adams in Games436 days ago

As  you might expect from the Bombcast it’s game talk mixed with tales of Thanksgiving mixed with game talk on this weeks episode. Vinny kicks things off with Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood by explaining he might have been mistaken about his 23 hours played from last weeks show, due to a weird way the game tracks playtime. It certainly has him hooked, as he lists off several games he had planned to play but never got to thanks to Brotherhood. He also never got round to joining Brad who was busy finishing Borderlands. He now recognises...

Podcast Beyond: Free Games

by Jon Cole in Games515 days ago

After a glorious weekend at PAX Prime, Beyond is back to report on the biggest Playstation news of the week. In honor of PAX, Greg starts off the show with some stories about his time there, considering the fact that he spent much of his time as a community envoy rather than a journalist. At about 17:30, the guys get into the show proper, namely with the Roper Report. The 15th Anniversary of the Playstation is obviously one of the most notable news of the week and causes the guys to reminisce a little about their PS past. Otherwise, Duke Nukem Forever...

Weekend Confirmed Episode 24

by Peter Barta in Games523 days ago

This week’s Weekend Confirmed is absolutely packed, despite being down one member.  With Brian sick, its Garnett and Jeff touching on all manner of content, starting with Whatcha Been Playin?  They spread the wealth this week, talking about Dead Rising 2: Case Zero, Shogun 2, Mafia 2, Sonic Riders for Kinect, and F1 2010.  Garnett gives a quick teaser for the upcoming Borderlands DLC and Jeff explains his new favorite boardgame Cutthroat Caverns. The Warning gives us the third week of discussion surrounding shooting in games and potential...

Weekend Confirmed Episode 21

by Jonathan Downin in Games545 days ago

Madden 11 kicks-off the show this week as Jeff has put a bit more time into it. He has also been playing some Dragon Quest 9 which he isn’t completely loving. Garnett has a few comments on Arc Rise Fantasia as the group moves on to discuss the simple, yet interesting indie title, Minecraft. Similar to LOVE, it is being funded by early purchasers who also get in on a lead-up-to-launch beta. Brian also spends more time on StarCraft 2, and it feels like it should be given a break for a while. The Warning is full of insightful discussions this...

Giant Bombcast 03-09-2010

by Jonathan Downin in Games702 days ago

It is a very special Bombcast this week if you are a fan of the guys from their old stomping grounds– none other than 38 Studio’s own Rich Gallup is on the show. GDC talk kicks things off before the crew head into a healthy recently played games segment. Borderlands gets some more love and Bad Company 2 is entertaining Jeff. Brad hits StarCraft 2 before digging into his Final Fantasy XIII experiences thus far. Not all is rosy with the latest iteration, but the best moment comes when Jeff realizes that “Phoenix Down” actually...

Game Scoop! Podcast, Episode 154

by Jonathan Downin in Games713 days ago

It should almost go unsaid at this point, but this week’s Game Scoop! is all over the place. Word of a “cocktail-wear required” Final Fantasy XIII event kicks things off before David shares some love for the latest (and last?) Borderlands DLC. Charles got some hands-on time with Street Fighter IV for iPhone and has some positive remarks about its translation. The middle section here is dedicated to discussion about downloadable games that leads into another edition of Ryan Geddes 1-man segment, now titled Inverted Look. He talks...

Rebel FM Episode 53 – 02/24/10

by Ross Adams in Games713 days ago

It was Nintendos turn to show off games this week so it’s another packed show this week. Before that though Anthony talks about his time with the newest Borderlands DLC, The Secret Armory of General Knoxx. He has only played a couple of hours but it sounds like a substantial addition complete with new tiers of weapons to lust for. He has also been playing Miles Edgeworth and is loving it just as he has all the previous Ace Attorney games. Tyler thinks Just Cause 2 could end up following a similar path to Assassins Creed, with the sequel delivering...

Three Red Lights

Three Red Lights Podcast Episode 137

by Jonathan Downin in Games715 days ago

Three Red Lights is back in more ways than one. They somehow managed to talk the higher-ups into letting them go back to their roots and head into the lands of the explicit– and it is glorious. X10 talk is riddled with impressions with the guys touching on Fable III and Alan Wake. The latter sounds like it is among the crews’ more anticipated games. The forthcoming Borderlands DLC gets a lot of discussion and Nate wants to play Dante’s Inferno since God of war 3 is still a ways away. The improvements to to Major League Baseball...

Giant Bombcast 02-23-2010

by Derek Lavigne in Games716 days ago

Brad Shoemaker is back in the saddle this week and kicks off the podcast discussing his recent playthrough of Heavy Rain with surprising detail while remaining spoiler-free. Following this all four guys get into a very lengthy and in-depth discussion about the Starcraft II beta, followed by a bit more RTS with Command & Conquer 4. This part of the show was a bit difficult to get through for someone who has as little interest in the genre as I have, so be forewarned. Most of the rest of the segment is spent talking about previews that each of...

Game Scoop! Podcast, Episode 152

by Jonathan Downin in Games727 days ago

While many podcasts have focused on Microsoft’s X10 event, Game Scoop! starts with NPDs this week. Mass Effect 2 had very strong initial sales, but other games seem to have lost out to BioWare’s latest– except for Just Dance. X10 does get some coverage with the guys talking about Dead Rising 2 and Alan Wake. Perfect Dark has also been confirmed for XBLA and Daemon is especially interested in the update. Left 4 Dead DLC is touched upon before the group moves onto another edition of Knockin’ Boots. Emails run long this week...

Giant Bombcast 02-02-2010

by Derek Lavigne in Games737 days ago

Drew sits in for Brad this week but stays mostly quiet for much of the podcast. The first 10 minutes of this show are amazingly rambling in a way that cannot even be described. The Bombcast then becomes the Spacecast with discussions of Alien vs. Predator, Jeff’s impressions on playing as a Borg in Star Trek Online, and Ryan’s thoughts on why Avatar’s story is actually well designed. The vast majority of the first hour and a half of the show however, is filled with an in-depth and spoiler-filled discussion on Mass Effect 2 —...

CO-OP — Episode 315: Reflections 2009 Part 2

by Derek Lavigne in Games745 days ago

This week picks up right where last week left off, with more discussion on favorite games of 2009. For those who didn’t tune in last week, the CO-OP guys have assembled a group of some of their more regular guests for this discussion. Downloadable titles are first focus of conversation, with David Ellis mentioning that Flower had what he felt were the best Sixaxis controls of any PS3 game. A quick stop on the quirky Noby Noby Boy leads to Dan Hsu talking about his love/hate relationship with one of my favorite games of last year, ‘Splosion...

GWJ Conference Call Episode 170

by Jonathan Downin in Games757 days ago

2010 means a new theme song for the GWJ, and it’s quite catchy. Darksiders start the discussion this week and the opinions are somewhat mixed. A GWJ classic, The Hunter, makes a comeback and the addition of a bow reinvigorates the love for hours of waiting in the brush. Bayonetta wasn’t stoking any fires in the GWJ’s gaming loving hearts a few weeks ago, but things have changed and Cory is completely in love with the game. Borderlands is also returning with Sean enjoying his experience much more with the PC version. The guys go...
