Giant Bomb @ E3 2019 | Have Fun, Be Safe, Be Kind, Call Home
- Thread starter Death Metalist
- Start date
waypoint, but they don't do live reactions, only podcast post-reactions
i feel pretty much the same way about normal commercial television lol so i guess its just inverse
Those alien bastards are gonna pay for shootin' up my parents.
Just got into Giant Bomb last year so I've never really watched their E3 coverage. Excited to check it out this year. Is it just live streams or do they post them as podcasts too?
Live streams at first with lengthy breaks between segments, then those get edited down into videos and podcast form the following morning.
Yeah the night shows start at 10 PM here on the east coast and can run past 3 AM occasionally.
Thanks, for some reason I thought it may have been today this year.
I seriously don't get the "GB ARE SO JADED" shit. Like they don't lose their shit for every single game but almost every conference they have something good to say and it's more MTS3K level riffing than anything.
Also they've been at it for what? Over 25 years? Let 'em be a little reserved.

Man, my work schedule sucks. I might be able to listen to the Microsoft and Ubisoft press conferences via YouTube on my phone while working. Weirdly enough the place I work at banned GB from their internet network. Yet a more vulgar but pretty informative website like the Jimquisition is totally ok. Also Nintendo is completely banned from my employer's network too.
Also I won't be able to see that Nintendo Direct in its entirety live this week. Will have to see the other half on an archive.

i've come to realise i look forward to giant bomb @ e3 more than i do e3 itself. even boring showcases become great with those guys.
That's great. I really liked her on the podcast her and Patrick had before Waypoint and really hadn't seen much from her sense.
Awesome. Need Patrick on the couch at the same time so we can get a Match 3 reunion of sorts.
East coaster as well, and I've gotten into the habit of watching the previous night's show after work the next day.
I do appreciate that they split the videos up per segment, though. I used to digest their E3 shows in podcast form, and it just got to be too much. Last year I probably skipped about a third of them.
Yeah, that's sensible. Previously I'd reschedule myself so I could do shifts from like noon-8 or 2-10 and just adjust everything, but your way is probably better.
Match 3 was great!
It's the combination of E3 + GB events + outside game announcements + every other game site I like going all out that does it for me. It's a ton of fun to see all these people interact and even if I don't care about the vast majority of announcements, the energy and excitement is infectious. Greatest time to be playing video games etc etc
in my neck of the woods most of the events start at like 6am and then conferences are ongoing until like midday, and then the streams go until... god, I don't know. it's usually not worth catching live, but if I can I try and do it.
Hell, I might take one day off next week and just chill with ya'll. It'll probably be okay for one day. I'll be in the middle of a charity fast in any event...

I'm a madman and end up watching them live and going to work sleep-deprived, usually supplementing with and evening nap.
Giantbomb E3 is a live streamed party full of people who don't all get to see each other outside of that yearly party, so it's always a joy to watch.
YESSSS
Definitive "holy shit it's E3 time" moments:
- pictures of LA Convention Centre with huge videogame banners start appearing online;
- Jeff Gerstman livestreaming his entire drive to LA
