I don't know how many of you guys visit Giant Bomb, a great site for video games and random shit involving the gb crew, but they just announced they were bought out by CBC.

Giant bomb was created by Jeff Gerstmann back in 2007/2008 when he got fired from Gamespot for writing an honest review of a shitty game, so it's a huge surprise that they are suddenly going back to their old company.
There's a livestream up on gamespot about it right now but the stream keeps cutting out.

I've been following them since the arrow pointing down days so yeah it's quite a weird thing.

Gamespot is nothing like it was back then.. Run by Jon Davison, it should be pretty legit

But man he is not looking so good in that video :heckno:
