malkav11 Posted July 4, 2014 Chris: "We don't have to talk about Dirk Gently." Me: NOOOOOOOOOO! Seriously, I would have loved to hear you all talk about Dirk Gently. Hitchhiker's is great and is more overall original, but I've always preferred Dirk Gently. It just makes me laugh so much harder. I wish Douglas Adams had managed to finish the third book before he died. (Well, really I wish he hadn't died at all, but if he was gonna..) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dez Posted July 4, 2014 I guess it's an appropriate time to post this: http://Video game.cool/ I meant to slap together a totally radical 90's mock-up of the Thumbs site, but eh I've put it off for weeks now and I haven't made a website in years. So I'll just settle with the redirect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
feelingsunicorn Posted July 4, 2014 *The Nintendo Direct opens on Satoru Iwata's face, which slowly morphs into that of a familiar bald visionary (Not J Allard)* "Hi, I'm Clint Hocking. Formerly of Ubisoft, more recently of Valve, and most recently of Amazon, and I'm here to announce my partnership with Nintendo to make Far Cry 2-2 exclusively for the Wii U."

Coods Posted July 4, 2014 God this is such a good episode. It feels like Nick Breckon was in the process of losing his mind ever since people started attaching an expletive to the front of his name, but I'm pretty sure at some point (possibly in the Idle Thumbs hiatus period) he actually did lose his mind, and now we just get to enjoy Breckon's weird ass psyche.

Bjorn Posted July 4, 2014 Point 2 - Thank you! Seriously, I've been overcome by how welcoming and friendly the Idle Thumbs community has been. It's like I'm not even on the internet right now! This is without a doubt the best gaming forum/community I've ever been around. The only thing that was close has been the Joystiq Podcast Appreciation Group on Facebook back when it was still active.
