Giant Bombcast

Ryan returns from Disneyland; Jeff and Vinny reinvent bath-time and mealtime; Brad falls down an apocalyptic rabbit hole; everyone has allergies.

Jeff. Vinny, Brad, and Patrick talk over Metal Gear Rising, Crysis 3, the PlayStation 4, having a body full of foreign objects, Tomb Raider, and more.

Everything new is old again as the Giant Bombcast feels the crushing weight of the unrelenting passage of time! With special guest star Dave Snider!

The pitfalls of potholes, rumored Durango specs, Hit Clips and MiniDiscs, The Witcher 3, Bald Paul Walker, JJ Abrams vs. Gabe Newell, the delay of Rayman Legends, Impossible Studios’ final mission, and if we sell enough GRIT then we can get a bike!

We're relaunching giantbomb.com on February 12, 2013! Here's how that may impact our beloved podcast listeners.

We might as well rename it the "Fast and Furious"…cast.

We go spelunking in The Cave, compare the relative merits of the Underworld and Resident Evil film franchises, dig into the bureaucracy of SimCity, question the very nature of reality with Antichamber, and pour one out for THQ on this week's Bombcast!

After spending no less than a half-hour talking about Yelp, the gang finally gets down to business with Letterpress, Ni no Kuni, Halo 4 spoilers, Kentucky Route Zero, Antichamber, and, of course, Beverly Hills Cop.

We talk flu watch, dog food, contentious furniture ownership, Black Ops II, Twin Peaks, Devil May Cry, and more!

Everyone's back in the office and ready to grapple with the big issues of 2013, including Jeff Goldblum, Hundreds, Barkley Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden, Halo déjà vu, the fate of THQ, the cost of doing next-gen business, Nvidia's Project Shield, fried chicken, and, of course, wig bowling.

Everyone's still on vacation, but nothing stops the Bombcast! Not even dodgy Skype calls, illegal drinks, and the death of Dick Clark!

We close out our Game of the Year 2012 deliberations with our picks for Dumbest Motion-Controlled Moment, Best Trend, Biggest News, Worst Game, and finally, our pick for overall Game of the Year.

We choose winners for the WarioWare Spirit Award, Best Multiplayer, Best Download Game, Best Story, and Most Disappointing Game of 2012.

We make some hard decisions concerning Skrillex, Nolan North, good-looking games, bad trends, and browser-based games on day three of our 2012 deliberations.

Listen in as we hash out our choices for Walking Dead Episode of the Year, Best Debut, Best Surprise, Miiverse Community of the Year, and Best Use of a Licensed Song.

We kick things off with our picks for 2012's 2011 Game of the Year, Best Moment/Sequence, Best New Character, Best Music, and Best Classic Revival.

Patrick learns first-hand about the karmic repercussions of sports-team trash-talking, Brad gets an iPhone 5, Ryan sees The Hobbit, and we read as many listener emails as we can stand.

Now that Brad has finally finished Mass Effect 3, we spend a solid hour going over that trilogy's conclusion, while also discussing FTL, ZombiU, Far Cry 2, 999, Phantom Pain, and more!

After his two-week absence, Patrick returns to us with harrowing tales of Sports Assholes, while we also tackle topics including The Walking Dead, Far Cry 3, "the new Wii", Bungie's Destiny, and the 2012 Levia-thon, going on now at your local Reaper dealer!

We're back from Thanksgiving break with tales of Funky Barn, Wii U retail experiences, pocket watches, Kickstarter, Assassin's Creed III, Far Cry 3, The Walking Dead, Persona 4, PlanetSide 2, big-ass monitors, and more!

We give thanks for a short work week, Home Run Pies, Assassin's Creed III, Hitman: Absolution, the Wii U launch, the evolution of Mario, PlayStation All-Stars, Mass Effect 3, Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm, Grand Theft Auto V, and more!

We report in on our first week of Wii U ownership with a scathing treatise on the music of New Super Mario Bros. U, plus we share our latest thoughts on Halo 4, Black Ops II, Curiosity's life-changing secret, and the sexual enigma that is Michael Keaton.

Ryan and Patrick throw down the Assassin's Creed gauntlet with Brad, Vinny learns the hard way about infant incompatibility with Daylight Savings, Jeff plays a bunch of Halo 4, and more!

We talk Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Assassin's Creed III, The Walking Dead, Dust: An Elysian Tail, Zynga layoffs, and the current state of ethics in game journalism.
