A Giant Bomb is The Future

For the last couple of months I've had to actually look around for video game news. I used to just go to Gamespot but then, Jeff Gerstmann got fired. And I was upset. Because that guy was the reason I would go to that site. The guy is entertaining and he actually knows video games. I told myself, "bummer, but I'm gonna keep visiting the site". Then I noticed I wasn't listening to The Hotspot anymore, which is their podcast. Then I wasn't watching On the Spot anymore. Because they weren't the same. I kept close watch to the guy and found out he had a blog. So I checked it out. Then Ryan Davis left Gamespot. Then Alex Navarro. By then, I wasn't going to Gamespot anymore. I started listening to the Arrow Pointing Down Podcast and then, after lots of hints, giantbomb.com was born.


Giantbomb.com is the lovechild of Jeff Gerstmann and Ryan Davis. I watched a clip about it on the XPlay site. I should point out that I don't watch G4. I must say that to me, the channel went to crap after all the firings. Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb rock though. Anyways, back to the topic. I, personally, believe this site is all we will need. Jeff has said the site officially launches this summer. Or should I say explode. But it looks great already.

I must say I hope the site works out. I am very excited and I was only waiting for this to arrive. I thought it would eventually happen. Now that it has, all I can do is wait and see how it turns out. This site is it. It's the future of gaming websites. It's video game news 2.0. It's GiantBomb.com.
Expect alot more.
