Giant Bombcast

Destiny still rules the video game talk around these parts... but then, who just listens to this podcast for games? Especially when you can also hear about hot topics like dying on Mars, drinking on battleships, the John Carmack Tweet of the Week, and TWO POINT FIVE BILLION DOLLARS.

Destiny is here and it's time to talk about it. Once we've gone over our first few hours with Bungie's latest, stick around for further discussion of Drew's introduction to local wrestling, Dan's recipe for bathtub chicken, and the popularity of Giant Bomb among certain royal families.

Join us as we mop up the last little bit of PAX Prime business before moving on to more pressing discussions about eating bugs, Sony's TGS news, Frasier Pinball, the marvels of food science, and how to survive the apocalypse.

Not even the earth shaking beneath our feet can stop us from talking about bad Mario Kart tournaments, Infamous: First Light, the feasibility of Star Citizen, the Amazon/Twitch deal, Smash Bros. leaks, and another of Dan's awful, awful stories.

With Dan out at SummerSlam, Matt Rorie joins us to... have a lengthy conversation about professional wrestling, not to mention discussions of platform exclusivity, the Gamescom meat grinder, John Romero's return to shooters, and how to protect your virtual property with a car battery.

Newly minted Sony company man John T. Drake has completed his cross-country trek just in time to discuss the mystery of Matt Kessler, the riddle of Dan Ryckert, the curse of historic Barkerville, and the dilemma of Dwayne Johnson.

Brad's fresh off a plane from The International 4 to talk about rare couriers! Oh, and also Dota 2. Drew is a Ghostship Snowpiercer. Jeff plays too much bingo. Dan Ryckert doesn't know how to cook. Plus your incredible edible emails!

Sentris developer Samantha Kalman drops by to chat with us about GaymerX2, the value of programming, the Nintendo 64's forgotten lineup, electronic sports, the secret identity of Freezyfrog, microbial science, and Dan Ryckert's odd, odd palate.

July rages on with discussion of important games like horseshoes. Also we discuss Cliff Blezinski's new operation, Gearbox's new hobby-grade meta-growth video gaming product, Destiny's ninety different versions, Mighty No. 9's hat-passing techniques, and how expensive it'll be to hook a new Kinect up to your PC. Brad Shoemaker compiled all the emails this week.

Brad returns from vacation to discuss his handheld travel adventures while Jeff and Drew wax poetic about the news of the week, shooting Nazis in their privates, buying Japanese PSN games, and your emails. This week: Why can't Jeff stop playing Marvel Heroes? It's not that good of a game! Oh, also we hired two people and they're on this week's show to introduce themselves. So check that out!

Drew and Jeff are joined by a pair of guests as we discuss table flipping arcade games, the mysterious appearance of Vince, EA's UFC, Primal Rage 2, floppy disk versions of Strider, and "football."

E3 2014 has come and gone, and we're left to pick up the pieces with further ruminations on No Man's Sky, Battlefield Hardline, Far Cry 4, and Destiny, along with Drew's weekend combat experience, Danny's Irish plague, Rorie's E3 at home, and the one email that should never have been read. Huh?

We gather together the week before E3 to cover the games Jeff saw during his pre-show sojourn and make a bunch of very half-cocked predictions. Listen in to see just how wrong we were!

It's the week before E3 and we're just going to shout "Pushmo World" over and over again. OK, well, maybe we'll talk a bit about Batman: Arkham Knight, Mortal Kombat X, Sonic Boom, Mario Kart 8, Battlefield Hardline, Forza Horizon 2, PSO2's English chances, that Homefront sequel, the closure of Mythic Entertainment, and more. Wait, wasn't this week supposed to be quiet?

Games, games, games! We're talking about Watch Dogs, we're talking about The Order, we're talking about Driveclub, we're talking about The Evil Within, Lego Batman 3, UFC, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, Evolve, the process of packing and moving, French video game websites, and more!

We break down the latest details in the Grand Giant Bomb Expansion Plan and then cover the Kinectless Xbox One, the relevance of E3, Nintendo's Wi-Fi Connection (or lack thereof), Rockstar, Superhot, Far Cry 4, that Halo stuff, Night Trap, and your emails!

Greg Kasavin and Danny O'Dwyer join us as we talk about Super Time Force, Sunset Overdrive, releasing a game, Eurovision, butt holes in your wall, and how many pillows is enough pillows.

The Giant Bomb Gang reconvenes to discuss the proper lineage of Datel's cheat devices, that Kevin Spacey Call of Duty thing, Sony's grip of indie announcements, DIsney's Marvel thing, the ambitions of Zenimax's legal team, and all that.
