I like Dan but he's that annoying board game player that complains the entire game that he's the underdog, but in actuality it's really close and he ends up winning.

Dan (and to a lesser extent Vinny) are the only ones that seem to actually enjoy videogames. Brad and Jeff are constantly negative about drat near everything, but Jeff's pretty funny so I can tolerate him. When I'm listening to the bombcast or watching most of their content it just seems like those two don't want to be there, or are at best apathetic. It's like, why are they even working in the industry if they find it boring and terrible? I'd imagine it's because they have no other option, which just makes them even angrier. That's way more words than I needed to type about those guys, it's just frustrating as a listener I guess.

Edit: Forgot about Jason. Jason's pretty cool.

on the topic about dudes who are into fighting games and not jaded as poo poo about video games, the super best friends have a pretty good podcast!

Dan regarding RE1: I know you only get so many inventory slots but I want to carry literally everything I don't need at all times and therefore it's a bad mechanic.

He's right, inventory juggling sucks. Limited inventory is good at forcing you to make choices about what to carry and adding tension, but if it literally just fuels the player to do tons of back tracking or swaping things in out of a stash, it's pretty dumb.

RE1 is awful with this. I agree with Dan about wanting to keep a gun/ammo/knife/ink ribbon at bare minimum on you at all times. If they took out ink ribbons and let you save whenever I think the inventory problem (for Jill at least) would be pretty much gone. Chris on the other hand...

You can play the game from start to finish without ever backtracking? Also the knife is practically pointless (except the one time you need it) since you don't need to kill everything in your path, you rarely need more than one gun on you at a time, and lol at going out of your way to save.

Also Brad getting mad at video games reminds me of when I was a teenager playing fighting games and there was this one guy who would always bitch and complain about every little thing and generally be a sour puss.

That's hilarious because in the latest podcast Brad made a point of saying he's learned that Mario Party is bullshit so this year he's just going to not give a gently caress and have fun.

...and we liked it that way.
Giant Bomb died with Ryan.

Vinnie poured his own enthusiasm into Giant Bomb's necrotic void until moving across the country to be Alex's roommate looked like an escape to him.

Dan's positivity is the best thing to happen to GB in years and he is absolutely vital for them to maintain an audience going forward.

Also, I hate Dan because he's a loving goddamn idiot.

It's going to be extremely awesome when he's like 370 pounds and reveals himself as having been Ryan Davis all along.
