It's good that they're out from under that thumb, but I don't really care for the crew they have anymore.
-
Agree. I discovered GB in 2014ish so for me the crew + beastcast from then until like 2018 will always be the peak for me. I follow nextlander and gerstmann on YouTube but don’t watch too much tbh. I’m less into the streaming style, 90% of the time back in the day I used to just listen to the two podcasts although for a brief time I was a subscriber.

I do really enjoy watching Jeff rank NES games. Any Nextlander content with Abby is also great. Vinny, Brad, and Alex just need a slightly higher energy pairing to get them all at their best.

Yeah they lost everyone that I cared about a long time ago. I have no idea who is even still there at this point.

I would pay my last dollar just to have have these people on a podcast again
I love GB, but there was something different about the nonsense Jeff and Vinny would feed each other

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

I hate that every time I try to get video game news the top results are always AI generated slop, and the top results after those are human written slop that might as well be AI generated.

Yeah, it's kinda looking as bleak for games journalists as it has been for games developers.
Aftermath and People Make Games do a lot of good work, they're worth checking out if you're unfamiliar.

Back to basics

Hell yeah! Started fallowing these guys when Jeff was fired from GameSpot over the Kane and Lynch review. They started that podcast called Arrow Pointing Down which eventually became Giant Bomb. They've been ahead of internet trends for decades, but always under the boot of some investment scheme or corporation.
I wonder if Jeff would come back to GB or of that's all past him now.
Regardless, this is such awesome news!

he's doing well with his solo thing so i doubt it but i'd love that because he's way better in a group and he makes dan tolerable for me in a way that none of the east coast people managed to reproduce.
