Jeff and Ryan RETURN! Gamespot is back.

And so are the people that left the day he was fired. Like me!

Hello!




and probably goodbye.

Careful. I made the same thread and it was locked within 15 minutes for no clear reason. Stick to the Giant Bomb forums if you want to actually discuss this.

So are Gamespot and Giant Bomb combining in some way?

I fully expect this to be locked, and that's why I give Dracula64's modding a 6.0 rating.

For some reason I can't bring myself to care.

All the bandwagoners can stay on the other site as far as I'm concerned.Pittfan666

Sounds good to me. I've been sticking to the Giant Bomb forums for ages now, and judging by the general atmosphere I've been seeing here today, that has been a VERY good decision.

Awesome! At least I think. I'm not clear on the details yet...

Eh... Link? horgen123

Here you go.

Ah cool :P

Now I can start caring about the game content section of this site again. Jeff did say giantbomb.com is going to stay up and they will keep doing reviews for it. Not sure how that is going to work. We'll see.limpbizkit818

From what little I understand, CBS just bought GiantBomb. GS and GB aren't consolidating or anything.MrPraline

I think Giantbomb are going to use Gamespot's offices, rather than Whiskey Media's offices.

Here you go.

OOOOhhhhh

Here is a better link.

Two things stand out:

"No content will change. The Bombcast is still every Tuesday, and Quicklooks/video content will resume soon. DO NOT send mailbag stuff to their old office."

"GiantBomb will have it's own content, and will have full editorial control over it. They will not cut any features just because Gamespot already does it."

OMG YES!:D

Don't get it at all. CBS media, who own Gamespot (as well as Cnet for that matter) now owns Giant Bomb as well. I don't see anything at all that says the Giant Bomb people will now be working for Gamespot, or even associated with them in any way.

EDIT: Oh never mind, just read that they're sharing the same offices, but remaining separate entities.

From my volunteer role on GS? I am so ashamed

Jeff said they'd be doing another stream at 4pm PDT to answer more questions. That should clear a lot of things up.

Will each site make their own content or will some of the content be shared? horgen123

I hope you are dead wrong.

I predict an awkward atmosphere...

[QUOTE="horgen123"][QUOTE="aaronmullan"] Separate content. I assume they collaborate with videos and stuff though.Dracula68

I hope you are dead wrong.

First time back here on Gamespot since Giantbomb happened. I feel weird. digi_matrix

That's stupid, why would CBS want to acquire two gaming websites? (forgive my ignorance) lonewolf604

Because they want a good one.
