Giant Bombcast

With Vinny out on special assignment, we're joined by none other than Jeff Green for this XXL edition of the Giant Bombcast, where we discuss the joys of unemployment, Kane & Lynch 2, BioShock Infinite, the state of id Software, Dance Central, and much more!

Arachnophobia rears its ugly, murderous head this week, and yet we soldier on with discussions of NBA Jam, Batman, Pokemon, and of course, StarCraft, StarCraft, StarCraft.

Though Brad spends an inordinate amount of time talking about StarCraft II this week, we still find time to talk a little truck, debate the console future of Battlefield 3, discuss John Riccitiello's hair-suit, and much more. Good luck, have Batman!

Vinny and Ryan recount their weekend adventures in arcade-hunting, Brad exhibits a Pavlovian response to the very mention of StarCraft II, and Jeff goes toobin' with Toobin'.

We're joined by a very special guest on this week's Bombcast, where we talk about our classic arcade experience at California Extreme 2010, the dark arts of Limbo, the fate of 1 vs. 100, bad video-game television shows, and much more!

Dave sits in while Brad recovers from a non-fish-can-related food injury and we do some competition-grade jaw-jacking about Singularity, Puzzle Agent, EVO 2010, Internet awfulness, vinyl collectors in space, pre-LC, the laziness of zombies, and more!

We return from celebrating America's Birthday with all our fingers and toes miraculously intact to christen Giant Bomb's new San Francisco offices with plenty of hot, sweaty talk about Crackdown 2, Singularity, illegal fireworks, and more!

We talk about Sherlock Holmes, EVE Online, Uplink, Risk: Factions, APB, Transformers: War For Cybertron, DeathSpank, and more, before being driven absolutely mad by the sounds of deliberately broken electronics in our final Sausalito-based Bombcast!

We return to our regularly scheduled Bombcast with a little E3 wrap-up. Jeff and Brad indulge their compulsive Mortal Kombat needs, Ryan considers Kinect achievements, and Vinny keeps the Bombcast blue!

E3 2010 is over! As the Lakers win the Finals and LA riots outside, we produce plenty of our own chaos with special guests Dino Ignacio, Paul Barnett, Leigh Alexander, Eric Pope, Chris Tilton, and alcohol.

This is one for the books. Nearly three hours of Jeff Bridges, regrettable impressions, even more regrettable wagers, Spec Ops: The Line, Rock Band 3, Dance Central, SOCOM 4, Fable III, Gears of War 3, Halo: Reach, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Def Jam: Rapstar, and more!

With day one come to a close, we rap about the Nintendo and Sony press conferences, Zelda, our hands-on experiences with the 3DS, Jack Tretton, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, and more Mortal Kombat than the law will allow.

We run down the day's events, including the Microsoft, Electronic Arts, and Ubisoft press conferences, plus some first-hand Kinect experiences and the oversized Activision soiree at the Staples Center.

We snare a wood nymph and bring it back to the Bomb House to tell us all about Microsoft's Cirque du Soleil show, the Kinect reveal, and the Xbox 360 slim. Also, white smocks for everyone!

In our last regular Bombcast before E3 2010, we discuss overconfident drum reveals, Kid Rock's authenticity, Ice-T on the internet, Infamous 2, Kevin Butler's E3 presence, Activision's independence, Gene Simmons, Hulu on the 360, PSP fire sales, and more!

We return from our glorious three-day weekend rested and ready for lengthy discussions about Red Dead Redemption, Alpha Protocol, Crackdown 2, Killzone 3, J Allard and Robbie Bach's departures from Microsoft, Insomniac's multiplatform deal, and more!

Jeff returns with tales of Tron: Evolution, Pirates of the Caribbean: Armada of the Damned, and mini-cheeseburgers. We also dig into Red Dead Redemption's slow start, Blur's kart comparisons, Killzone 3, the trajectory of J Allard, and much more!

Get ready for a little three-man dance as Ryan, Vinny, and Brad shed light on what makes Damnation so awful, the dry heat of Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, the Bruckheimerian appeal of Split/Second, the ongoing Korean Starcraft scandal, and more!

We're joined by two very special guests as we discuss Skate 3, Alan Wake, EA's multiplayer offensive, in-game advertising, Michael Ironside's LittleBigPlanet 2 audition, Marvel vs. Capcom 3, and much more on this week's Bombcast!

Gerstmann goes off on headshots, Vinny gets Dieseled, Brad defends his slap-worthy sunburn, Ryan succumbs to the madness of the Mickey Rourke Whopper, and we still find the time to talk about some damn games on this week's Bombcast!

We tackle Just Cause 2 mods, Super Street Fighter IV, Starcraft haircare products, Halo: Reach, the cameraman in Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days, the intellectual property rights for RZA's mocap, the fool's promise of another GoldenEye game, and more!

Jeff tells us all about the games of Captivate 2010 and we reflect on last week's Xboxalypse, plus discussions of Nick Nolte's role in South Korea's Starcraft scandal, Nolan Bushnell's glorious return to Atari, and, you know, other stuff! Bombcast!

We discuss high-score tactics in Yar's Revenge, Bleszinski vs Bieber, the birth of Respawn Entertainment, the exciting conclusion to our Splinter Cell: Conviction wager, the potato turducken, and, if you can believe it, much more!

Tested.com's own Will Smith and Norm Chan join Ryan and Vinny to discuss the finer points of technology vs. science-ology, iPad return policies, OCD in Just Cause 2, the most expensive game of Scrabble ever, Liar's Day highlights, and more!
