i watch a fuck ton of TV and its my favorite entertainment medium, but honestly, watching Giant Bomb content scratches the same itch
it's pretty easy to balance both really
although i still haven't had time to listen to any of the Danswers casts or a ton of the old podcasts. I only really started regularly listening to the podcast in 2014

I play a lot of games that don't require full concentration like jrpgs and turn based strategy and sim games. So I'm usually watching tv shows or GB videos while farming, etc.
multitasking.

The game gets really good once you finish the Virtuous Mission. It takes some time to get used to the changes like no radar, degrading silencers, worrying about food and camo etc. It's absolutely worth seeing for yourself if you enjoy MGS though, it has some of the best boss fights in the series.

A great QL. That last minute was quite a ride.
I don't remember Lucius I seeming so bad... what happened?
I used to listen to the podcast while playing driving or sports games, sadly my commute takes precedence these days though...

It's easy to watch Giant Bomb when you haven't played more than a couple hours of video games since mid-January >_>

We don't have cable, so Giant Bomb literally is my TV. I Chromecast or Roku to my TV to watch GB stuff.
There are a few shows I watch via Netflix/Amazon On Demand (COPS, Bobs Burgers, etc) but I spend maybe 2 hours a week watching that stuff meanwhile I watch pretty much everything GB puts up every week.

But it went from commercial-tier video game to bundlewear. Seems like a dramatic drop in quality to me.
Oh well. Here's to Lucius III: Origins.

let me clear something up for MGS3 for those who haven't played it
it's not going to be solid scanlon and colonel ryckert this time around, it's going to be naked scanlon and major ryckert
also, there may be some discussion about how MGS3 is the best in the series
this can be promptly ignored since that's all nonsense

But MGS3 is the best game in the series. And you can't prove me wrong because it's a scientific fact.

That can be the only explanation as to why it's not on the schedule yet: he's still playing.
What if...Drew is one of those crazy people that hates the game because of the Cold War setting, different characters etc? (Looking at you Jeff Gerstmann!)
MGS3 is easily the best.
MGS1 is top heavy in terms of gameplay depth and relies on absurd amounts of backtracking.
MGS2 is too focused on subverting player expectations and meme theory to be a good video game.
MGS3 strikes a balance between story, gameplay depth, camp, tragedy, and seriousness that no game in the series has since achieved. Basically go watch SuperBunnyhop's Critical Close-Up of MGS3 and weep that Metal Gear will never be so perfect again.
Any chance of it going up at midnight Pacific tonight?

I'll allow it! There is no higher love as far as I'm concerned.
MGS5 has residual vagina bomb stink on it, so it can't be the best.
According to Dan's Twitter he and Drew are watching Rocky IV in the office. Late night recording more episodes of Metal Gear Scanlon?

It's ok Patrick is gone, we can stop pretending he had a point by saying vagina bomb over and over again

Where else would you stick a bomb where nobody would expect it?
I dunno. Put a few more in the stomach. Disguise them as organs or whatever. nanomachine bomb.
You ask that like it was a perfectly normal and obvious thing to do.
Hide it in the anus of the one who conceptualized Paz as a character. Nothing but creepy ass pervy cliches and shitty writing. Abhorrent character.

On the target, of course.
Or was that lady the target to begin with? I haven't kept up with the intricate web that is Metal Gear lore.

Big Boss was the target, they knew he would come get her.

this is the late 70s son no nanomachines here
He's an evil sadistic man. Of course sticking bombs in a V isn't normal. Ever seen SAW? It's like that.
Haha.
The lady was bait for BB.
Counterpoint: you get a wolf pup as a pet
I actually have to agree. I was never that bothered by a bomb being hidden inside a vagina.
