Second Coming Of Gallup

by sweep

It was so good to hear Rich on my Ipod again He was back where he belongs. Somebody needs to nail-gun him into the Giant Bomb sofa so we are guaranteed a fix of Gallup every week. For some reason Gallup sounds like a condiment of some sort. I'm thinking Marmite but i'm sure any bovril flavoured substance would suit him just fine. Heres some fun Gallup related trivia.

He was back where he belongs. Somebody needs to nail-gun him into the Giant Bomb sofa so we are guaranteed a fix of Gallup every week. For some reason Gallup sounds like a condiment of some sort. I'm thinking Marmite but i'm sure any bovril flavoured substance would suit him just fine.

Heres some fun Gallup related trivia. Some of you may remember Rich's old blog www.doofycrap.com - well if you look back through the archives you will find that the first ever public doofy suggestion was made by... me. Sweep. Yours truely. I'm an internet phonomenon. If you are reading this then YOU OWE ME RICH - get into the bomb shelter right now!! (we dont call it the bomb shelter)

I just remembered i'm actually supposed to be talking about junk so heres some junk for me to talk about. I saw a bunch of movie trailers recently - the first being

MAX PAYNE

Which looks kind of weird. I never got past the fourth level of the game but I dont recall any angel-like monsters floating about. I think someone somewhere is getting a bit enthusiastically metaphysical.

and then

The Fast & Furious

Which got me super stoked because Vin Diesel is in it and that man is a complete tool and doesnt care who knows it. I love mindless films - they are much more entertaining to watch and talk about, and they provide valuable perspective as to what a decent film really is. Anyways the cars look like sex.

>>> I played some castle crashers online today, we managed to get a three player online game going and played for about 2 hours. It was great, although there are still some little hold-ups. I dont like the way you need to leave the room to change your character, and I got booted from the group at one point thanks to the randomness of CC's online modes. Fortunately being re-invited was fairly painless so overall it was a good experiance with little hassle. Hopefully the online mess is being sorted because that game really is a hella lotta fun. I'm going to write a guide soon (my first ever!) because i think i have found almost everything in that game... anyways, back on topic <<<

LASTLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY i saw that preview of PURE done by Brad and he is 100% correct. That trailer is enough to convert anyone into an ATV enthusiast. I suggest you go and watch it on the Giantbomb blog if you havent already done so.

Thanks for reading
Love (as always)
