Giantbomb is back
Giantbomb is back
neat
Good for them, but also I doubt they have enough revenue to maintain that many staff positions
I never heard of them until they shut down but it's cool that they're back (i still don't care)
I don't know who any of those guys are. Where's Jeff, Huge Nigger and Topkek?
Giant Bomb now owned by the faggots who have been puppeteering its decomposing corpse for the last couple of years instead of the people who actually build it up.
These scummy faggots like Bakalar and Grubb deserve the rope and nothing else. I hope it fails again.
So can Jeff and Drew come back now?
Boy, the last time we saw a second giant bomb was Nagasaki.
how dare they try and put it into a better position than it's been since the fandom acquisition
Well that doom and gloom was short lived. So they took the Game Informer and Rooster Teeth route. Can they survive in the current economy? We'll have to wait and see.
Do they still have an office?
Nobody gives a shit about current giant bomb. It was only good until around 2013.
Stoked for them, no doubt. And I hope it works out.
But holy shit who the fuck is paying 9.99/mo for like, podcasts and shit?
I give it 2~ years before it's gone.
better position
these retards aren't capable of putting anything in a better position, you can easily tell by how hard the whole thing declined while it was run by the very same people
they're costing off the work of building a brand that was already done for them and did nothing that any 2-man youtube operation couldn't pull off, the only reason they have a fanbase at all has nothing to do with any of the people that now own the brand
LITERALLY
FUCKING
WHO?
It's almost like Fandom was choking them the whole time like, they do to literally anything they own, and that it's not likely to get worse under new leadership and independent ownership.
I cannot stress enough that Fandom is poison and it's an enormous disservice to any business they own to act like they had no part in its decline and poor output.
none of those people are the ones who made giant bomb what it used to be
Nah they suck. I don't care if they die
How the hell is Giantbomb still a thing?
I think for a few years this board worshipped Jeff Gurstmann who is some Gears of War normie fatguy or something. This thread will have 400+ replies because he's considered "vidya" for some reason.
Damn. I wish it just died. Ill still never listen to it. A rebranding would make more sense
I haven't given two shits about them ever since they refused to review KCD due to some twitter drama. Fucking SJWs man.
Jeff, Ryan, Vinny and Drew were the only funny likeable people on giantbomb. Everyone else who ever worked there was extremely boring and lazy like Brad or an extreme cringe woketard like Patrick or that brown obese guy I forget name of.
It's just more skinwalking.
Giantbomb has been dead for a while, the whole point was the personalities of the original group.
Time to finally do an endurance run of Persona 5
They were going to make a patreon called Party Time Games, but they were able to finagle the Giant Bomb name
Danbros?
jeff, vinny and drew are all boring and woke now regardless
dan now part owner of giant bomb
only in this position because ryan didn't put on his sleep apena mask for an afternoon nap a few days after being married over a decade ago
truly the worst timeline
Nobody likes the current giantbomb crew. It bizarre that people give them money.
oh it's a giant bomb alright lol
I would rather watch them than sleepy jeff or the neck slander fags
Unless Jeff Gerstmann comes back full time, I don't care.
who are those people?
Giant Bomb was always shit. Jeff was always a faggot. You retards deserve the fate you got.
You retards deserve the fate you got
wait what fate did I get
the site crashed
Bluesky
Whatcha doing tranny?
It's already on the right track. Awesome, announce your "return" in the platform that most of your fanbase is most likely to ignore.
DREAM DADDY WINS
independent ownership
Who?
Bluesky
Whatcha doing tranny?
not getting faggot frogposters vomiting ragebait and checkmark engagement bait into my eyeballs at all hours of all days
i repeat: everyone with a checkmark on twitter is monetarily incentivized to make you mad because you will click on it. insufferable website and a very "Anon Babble" monetization policy
I think Cuphead should be higher
everyone with a checkmark on twitter is monetarily incentivized to make you mad
and everyone on bluesky is a tranny
Maybe I am confusing him with someone else but wasn't he at Gamespot at some point (Is GS even alive?) and gave a Zelda game and 8.8 or something?
That review cause extraordinary butthurt and Anon Babble decided Jeff was our guy for calling daring to say Zelda was just kind of okay.
It gets worse once you realize TP is still the best game in the series from the last 20 years.
It’s A.I bot, they aren’t back. You need to move on, the writers are gone, they don’t blame you for their mistakes.
unfortunately i've actually read what's going on so no this isn't an AI bot, fuck off
GB thread with no Kishposting
it's already a failure
I should have expected this, honestly. Dan Ryckert has the mandate of heaven. The universe itself conspires to make sure everything works out for him when by rights he should be homeless or dead.
That's not worse than some nog making money off my clicks, anon. You can't just yell "tranny" as a magic word, that's not how it works. Are you twelve?
8.8 was far more generous than TP deserved
Holy shit. I live I die I live again.
Giantbomb is a gaming news website, not a YouTube channel. It’s truly dead.
X is shit so I am moving to the special ed twitter for mentally ill groomers
I cannot help to notice you did not fight the tranny allegations but I like Dopefish so I am cutting you some slack.
But just so you know, you are a giant fucking faggot for enabling the type of sheeple behavior where you only get your news from a few social media sources, that is the reason why sites like Giant Bomb failed, no one dares venture the internet and everybody stays on the same 3-4 platforms that they know.
I can't believe this site is still alive with all the original crew gone, what's even more mindblowing is that they were on the verge of being closed down 12 years ago but Ryan's death literally saved the site due to how much attention it got.
go back to your site then faggot, your kind doesnt belong here
twitterfags should also go back
Eh yeah, the overworld was kind of empty.
I cannot help to notice you did not fight the tranny allegations
meaningless fucking slop attached to every Anon Babble post and not worth anybody's time to "fight"
Dan won
wtf he really is a based retard that falls ass first into success
NTA but every single person I followed on twitter is on Bluesky instead now. Twitter is nothing but Facebook tier clickbait and bots reposting the same old videos. A dead platform.
That's not worse than some nog making money off my clicks, anon
Yes actually it is, it is way worse you dumb tranny retard.
The reason why your ill left was because they could not longer hoard the entire site to yourselves.
It's more that he just puts himself out there and isn't afraid to try, turns out you can make a lot of shit happen by doing that
your kind doesnt belong here
I've been here longer than you've been alive.
Never heard of it, don't care
Gonna start waking myself up with a stun gun too.
Dan is an annoying retard but he actually does work hard for it, and I kinda respect him for that.
He was the only one on staff actually coming up with content when he got first hired, after Ryan's death pretty much all the most successful GB series were his ideas.
I decide to use neither because twitter and pedo twitter are both shit, you can choose to not use either of them.
hehe throw the snake Drew hehe
giantbomb is back!!!
a bunch of literal whos using the IP
all the people anyone cared about still gone
Can’t wait to see what Jeff does
It has all the important members like everyone's favorite... Jeff Bakalar
what does big jeffery have to say about all of this
He talked about 30 minutes last week, but nothing about this new news
tldr he likes Jan, Grubb, and Dan but has pretty much moved on from thinking about current Giant bomb
Cool! I still like those guys so I'm glad they're good
uh ok thats nice. oh wait jeff went live, bye.
SEE THE BEST ROLER COASTER ON THE EASTERN SEABOARD. ALLIGATOR CENTRAL. THE KING OF THE EVERGLADES: ROSCOE
see you all in 2 years for the third giant bomb is dead fiasco, next time is the actual finale I reckon
When's Ryan coming back?
.bsky.social
They might as well kill themselves, not a single individual from there is mentally well.
damn hexxus, not cool
yeah ran into the same thing, everybody funny i liked moved to bluesky because it wasn't filled with ads and robots and retards and it's just pre-musk twitter in website design and function so i have literally no reason to complain
i think you get attacked on Anon Babble if you mention bluesky because they're checkmarks that get pissed you're denying them money by leaving and not clicking on their shit anymore, like how the AI shills are tolerated on all boards because SOMEBODY is getting money from that
Nothing changes, they are still activists, with shit opinions, that suck at video games.
I sincerely have no idea who continued watching after Ryan died
bluesky
no rage bait
lol I wonder why people just go online and lie all the time. I guess what you mean is "the rage bait from political side i dont like is banned".
i'm gatekept out of The Algorithm™ on bluesky and ur a tranny
Yes. Get out of my feed forever. And wash your fucking hair. It's not my fault or my problem that you don't get paid to be an annoying little shit on Bluesky.
all I remember about giant bomb was watching their persona 4 playthrough on youtube while I was sick as fuck
GIVE ME YOUR MONEY, BIGOT
this is your nu-gb
Just saw Jeff Gerstmann and Jeff Bakalar don't follow each other, prob some bad blood or weirdness so no Jeff G on the Bombcast RIP
jeff g streams at the same time as a lot of the others and never interacts with them. he wanted out completely.
He didn't mention him at all when talking about giant bomb last week either.
or minotti.
It went to shit after Drew left. Dan Ryckert is easily the worst and most replaceable of the "OG" members.
He was talking with Dan about doing more anime podcasts just a few days ago
Bakalar has always being a corporate faggot, the exact type of person Jeff despised
Who reads about video games these days?
nobody, which is why the business model is to grift parasocial idiots via patreon now
I recognize one person and he doesn't even look the way he used to
