I don't think many people said it was going to fail and/or not gaining popularity, at least, these are the frequent posters.

Well, GB has nothing on Google :p

Plus, GS and IGN numbers always go down in the summer. But in the end, who cares if those sites do good or bad? I mean I still use the forums on Gamespot.

Yeah, look at even GiantBomb's July traffic.  Its called July!  You always have that mid to late summer lull.  It will really pick back up once fall releases start to hit!

There has been a decline in IGN and Gamespot but I think you should do the comparison. Gamespot and IGN has a much bigger audience than this site -- plus the advantage of lots of lesser news sites linking into their articles and a huge back catalogue of reviews. Not to mention top ten Google rankings for virtually every video game related search on Google.

Here's the sites being compared:

GiantBomb is the barely visible line at the bottom.

Alexa isn't the best source anyway.

Alexa is ok, but not the best source as someone said already.  Great job to Giant Bomb for brining in people.

Who said GB was going to fail?

Whoever it was, they have failed... miserably.

I would be interested to know what the actual traffic is. I don't think this site's ever going to compete with Gamespot and IGN. Hopefully if the Search Engine Optimisation has been done well the site should get a lot of decent exposure on Google (what with the whole Wiki thing) -- but I think the main draw of attraction to this site are the message boards (which admittedly are slowing down a touch) and obviously the "team vibe" they have going on here.

And by "team vibe" I mean the way you feel "invested" in Jeff, Ryan, Brad and Vinny. They put themselves out there and stamp the personality and opinion on everything and I think that's GiantBomb's biggest draw. Like Kotaku stamps it's personality all over it's articles but I don't feel I know anything about Brian Crecente whereas I feel like I KNOW Jeff.

Yeah, its still nothing compared to the big sites, but you can't expect a small site like GB to compete with them immediately. With time Giant Bomb should slowly climb the rankings.
