I didn't know who Tommy Tallarico is, but when I saw @fredtwood.com on his blocklist I knew enough. Fred is literally one of the nicest people on this planet. So now I'm watching a two hour @hbomberguy.bsky.social video that is so precise in dismantling Tommy's bullshit that it requires new math. - ThreadSky

I love how the Giant Bomb guys clowned on Tommy so much over the years that they all got blocked.

spectreproxy.bsky.social•13 days ago

glad you're watching the video but this is a really funny reason to decide to watch it now lol

sleeepy0-0.bsky.social•13 days ago

abdiyohan.com•13 days ago

Oh shit, the Video Games Live music guy is a dick? Good to know.

abdiyohan.com•13 days ago

To be fair, I didn't know anything else about him other than seeing him on the PBS rebroadcast of VGL like 15 years ago. lol

You just made my work day infinitely better tysm

moonpir.bsky.social•13 days ago

Cannot recommend the one after about plagiarism and you(tube) enough either. @hbomberguy.bsky.social is a gem.

atomicacophony.bsky.social•13 days ago

He wasn't even on Cribs.

mattcaulder.com•13 days ago

This reminds me I have like five Hbomb videos to catch up on

zorro4zl.bsky.social•13 days ago

My first video was his latest one about plagiarism. After that, I get flashbanged by his voice in the Folding Ideas video This is Legal Advice.

vandrothsoryn.bsky.social•13 days ago

Wow, that's six years of content!

wegotbots.bsky.social•13 days ago

Not sure who @hbomberguy.bsky.social is but Tommy himself made a really good 2 hour video on how he is full of shit and love to take credit for other people's work. His mother is very proud of it

fredrikhathen.bsky.social•13 days ago

Oh, you're in for a wild ride. Tommy Tallarico should be studied in a lab, he's absolutely bizarre and a liar on an astronomical level, not to mention a huge fraud. Also, friends of mine were directly hurt by him (see the part about structuring in hbomb's video)

nazihfares.com•13 days ago

Yup! He tried to pull off a crazy pyramid scheme in the arab world, associating himself with all sorts of weirdos to sell a console that ended up being a worse disappointment than the Ouya.

fredrikhathen.bsky.social•13 days ago

I love how the Amico is just one of a multitude of incredibly weird things this man has done. Or in many cases not done but taken credit for, I suppose xD

nazihfares.com•13 days ago

Oh remember the farce that was Videogame Live?

fredrikhathen.bsky.social•13 days ago

I do! Never went to a concert (don't even remember if they toured in Scandinavia) but I have seen and heard recordings

johnebenger.bsky.social•13 days ago

Such a great video

zerojay.com•13 days ago

It's a special moment in every game developer's life, Rami. Savour it.

nogenius.bsky.social•13 days ago

All you need to know is that his mother is very proud

alexstrook.bsky.social•13 days ago

see you on the other side

ceremus.bsky.social•13 days ago

I've rewatched his videos dozens of times and I'm not sure what that says about me. Anyway, though it doesn't focus on Thomas the Tallarico Engine, his latest plagiarism video is practically a sequel in the same vein.

ayshaufarah.bsky.social•13 days ago

A classic

radiantg.bsky.social•13 days ago

His mother is very proud

calicoday.bsky.social•13 days ago

I only knew Tallarico from the early years of Electric Playground (TV). Great show I got a lot out of when I hadn't access to much else, gaming-wise. But what a trail of wreckage this guy's left. Known others like that myself. Feel rather sorry for friends-as-were who'll never escape it.

phantomliger89.bsky.social•13 days ago

That's what I know him from too. I'm scared to look what's happened with him. Haha

ducbuonngu.bsky.social•13 days ago

That whole video is a fun rabbit hole to go down. The origin of a simple sound effect should not be such a wild ride.

shaneisposting.bsky.social•13 days ago

I wish I could erase my memory of the hbomb video so I could watch it for the first time again.

stexe.bsky.social•13 days ago

There's a lot not even talked about in that video that I've heard from direct sources back in the day and again at GDC over the years. It is pretty bad.

paulgoodman.bsky.social•13 days ago

It is… an amazingly detailed and researched video.

thememos.bsky.social•13 days ago

i also don't know who this is but hbomberguy's video essays are cool

blightyoakam.bsky.social•13 days ago

that video is so good i watch it at least twice a year

palzee.bsky.social•13 days ago

Tommy "first American to work on Sonic" "my mother is very proud" "Mr. Roblox" Tallarico is on here? well now i guess this platform is worth something!

enjoy the video. it is truly one of the greatest works on youtube with no exaggeration. if you are scrolling past and havent seen it, watch it.
