A Giant Bomb member gifted me a TON of classic games.

Cool things can and do happen with Giant Bomb.

I've been friends with @bkimball for a while, I knew him as a local creative here in Utah. But it was only last month, when Ryan passed, that either of us realized we were both GB members. GB members, and deep in it.

Obviously it was a terrible way to find out we had this thing in common. But if there's an upshot, its that it was also helpful to have someone in real life to, you know, mourn with, without giving a list of caveats to. Silver linings.

Anyway, Brady is moving onwards and upwards in life, with a great job in a new city, and he decided to help make room for that life by gifting me with a ton of his classic games and systems.

A shit-ton [metric].

I made a little mailbag-esque video about it, and took some pictures. But really, I'm overwhelmed by Brady's generosity and general bad-assery, and would like to suggest that everyone send him well-wishes, as well as check out his hip hop endeavors here.
