Default GiantBomb: Quicklook

I don't know how many of you watch these, but to me they are the greatest way to get information on a game. They are fun, and very enjoyable. It has sold me on several games including Borderlands, and figured a thread to discuss and post the most recent ones.

For those of you who haven't seen them before,

Top 10 of the ones released in 2009, but I honestly have never had a bad one.

I cannot agree more emphatically about the greatness of the Giant Bomb Quicklooks.

I'm watching some of them now. Looks cool although it's not really a review.

Everyone should watch the Rouge Warrior one. Best Quicklook ever.

That's probably because they're not trying to be reviews...

Yeah, they aren't reviews nor exactly previews. They are quicklooks, which is just folks commenting on the game they are playing. Why I like it, none of the fluff you get with previews, and none of the crap you get with reviews.

Anyhow, here's the one that Fox suggested. Watched for the first time, and be warned there is some foul language.

The most recent one for Phoenix Wright Wiiware

This is just fun

I would also recommend anyone interested in Star Trek Online to check out the site as they have like 6 "quick" looks.

Just to let you guys know, those quick looks are about 30 - 45 minutes each

This is a really cool puzzle game up on Steam. Great art style, and robots!
