I love how you still snuck in the Navy and toast. Very subliminal.

Jackie Brown, yes! I very well know I'm in the minority on this one, but Jackie Brown is my all time favorite Quentin Tarantino movie.

I just got done watching Jackie Brown, had seen bits but never the whole thing, so a bit was spoiled, but still a great movie.

I hope the game won't let us down. From what I have seen, it will consume my entire winter season. :-D

@billlabowski @assais

Why has Gamespot always got complete retards in the comment section? Do you have a problem with British people or what?

There is plenty of other shows out there that are made by other Gamespot offices, it is not our fault if you feel that there aren't any!?

I hate comments like this!

Yeah yeah classic gamespot, having at least 100000 vids about an incoming gta game and/or a blockbuster shooter game, while we totally ignore every but EVERY freakin other release (for instance not even a video review for Rome II, KH 1.5 remix, anything that has to do with nintendo etc).

Keep up the good marketing!!

@klompa1992 Well, GTA5 sells way more than Rome 2, KH 1.5, or anything that has to do with Nintendo. But hey, maybe we'll have a waiting game for Pokemon X & Y!

No offense dude, but are you intentionally going for the "I am the definitive stereotype of a hipster"?

Are you being ironic? Not that there is anything wrong with that.

zzzzzzzzz sorry not a very interesting or funny show. Let's stick to laughing at people's illiterate and brain dead comments on topics nobody really cares about.

@SythisTaru @BattleOverlord Here's an idea: Get off your PC Elitist High-Horse, buy a cheap Xbox 360, or PS3 and quit bitching.

If you want to get an idea of what GTA5 will be like to play, I suggest grabbing Midnight Club: Los Angeles and Max Payne 3.

I would definetely suggest to watch some of Michael Mann's movie, in particular Thief and Heat, but also Collateral and Miami VIce.

Hey Johnny, why won't you do an episode on the waiting for Shenmue 3! I know you love the game and you wait (and hope) for a third as much as any other fan of that series! :D

here's an idea how to get ready - ignore the release and keep playing what you play now...it's what I do, always helps with over-marketed (and possibly overrated) crap like this

@thorn3000 No need to be a negative Nancy - these are all excellent suggestions. Overmarketed or not, lots of people haven't dipped into any of these, especially Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.

@Kh3pra @ziproy You're not joking. Half the people I know love Tarantino's work. The other half can't stand it. There's no middle ground at all.
