slug88 Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 To those not familiar with Giant Bomb, it's a very popular and very highly revered gaming news site. Many of you have probably watched their hilariously ill-fated attempt at . They're a huge name in mainstream gaming, and their weekly "Bombcast", which has been described as the Car Talk of gaming by The New Yorker, is among the most widely listened gaming podcasts on the internet. Well, it looks like ED has made some real fans of the guys, as DCS was the first game they discussed in their most recent podcast. You can stream it from here; they start talking about DCS at about 20 minutes in: http://media.giantbomb.com/podcast/giantbombcast-071012.mp3 Although I rarely delve into "mainstream" gaming, I listen to the Bombcast regularly, simply for the humor and high entertainment value. In fact it's very rare that I have any interest in the games they discuss. Therefore this was a very pleasant surprise, and potentially a moment of historic importance for ED, as they're seemingly doing what was long thought impossible: garnering mainstream popularity with a hardcore "niche" product. A well deserved congratulations to ED. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
StiC Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Giantbombcast is one of my favorite podcasts and one of the reasons I finally decided to give DCS a try. The other was some glowing comments by someone I fly with in Cliffs of Dover. StiC
