While looking at the thread about what you vehemently disagree to with the GB Crew it got me wondering how many of you actually listen to them at all? 
 
What I'm getting at is, I'm only here for the forums. Pure and simple. I'll look at a video once a month maybe but if I want information on a certain game I'll plug it into Wiki or find its Wikia. For gaming news I use Kotaku. 
 
The Bombcast bores the everloving shit out of me. It really does.
 
The Endurance run I didn't find entertaining in the slightest.
 
Surely I can't be the only one here who thinks this right?

I use Giantbomb for the forums and the Quick Looks.  I'll read the reviews for games I'm interested in.  Never watched the ER and don't listen to the Bombcast all that often, when I do, I don't listen to it all.

I listen to the bombcast at work, and it keeps me from clawing my eyes out in frustration (being an intern's kinda rough at my workplace). 
 
And I try to watch as many videos as I can, the endurance run I didn't watch a lot of, but it was fun to drop in every 10 episodes or so. Caught a good amount of boss battles and such.  
 
I use this site for gaming news because it's often condensed, no-bull just what I'd need to know to keep tabs on the gaming industry, and I also like how insider oriented some of the conversations on the bombcast, and the blog and news stories tend to get. Gives a level of insight that other sites don't seem to hit.

I'm not a big fan of the Bombcast either. But I love the video content. Maybe I'm just a visual guy.
 
If you're only here for the forums and you hate the original content, you're bound to get agitated by people who love the original content. Just sayin'

I love their original content, but this isn't my #1 news source for video games; that goes to kotaku / joystiq for me as well.

I listen to every Bombcast & watch most every video they make (unless its stuff I'm inherently not interested in, like a Mass Effect 2 interview or a Quick Look at Modern Warfare). I can get my up-to-date gaming news from other websites, but I just love the personality and humor that the crew puts into every single piece of their work. 
 
You might say that I'm serious. Martin Serious, perhaps.

These forums are pretty bad, and the GB crew is extremely entertaining, so there you go.

It seems weird to me to only come to Giant Bomb for the forums. Is the community here just that fantastic that despite your disdain for the site's audio and video content,  you still find Giant Bomb a worthwhile place to visit? If so, I guess that's pretty awesome. Seriously.

All of this for me too. I don't have the will to watch every single Endurance Run episode or Bombcast, though.

I watch a lot of the original video content, but given how selective they can be about what news they cover I usually gravitate elsewhere for my news. I love the forums though, and the reviews are usually great.

I visit the site every day for news and the forum, listen to every bombcast, watch most of their videos (except trailers, I only watch some that interest me), and use the wiki for most game info I need. So yeah, GB is basically my go-to place for anything game and off-topic related stuff.

I come here everyday and watch most of the video content. Watch every Quick Look and watched the Endurance Run. I listen to the Bombcast and read/watch all the reviews. I also use the forums. So yeah, Giantbomb is my #1 site for video game stuff.

I am so serious that I haven't smiled in at least 5 years.  And when I did I didn't mean it I just wanted to see what it felt like.

Judging from the fact that I've written over 200 wiki pages from scratch, I'd say I'm pretty serious.

I'm judging that that's because there's been no Sopranos for 3 years, and the 2 years before that you knew it was going to finish and it got you down. I just finished watching the box set and I'm going to start it all over again, it's too damn good.

Why so serious? 
insert Joker pic here, cause i'm too lazy to. 
 
I listen to the Bombcast cause i have nothing else to do. If i'm busy, then i'll leave it until some other time. 
Most of my news comes from here. Anything else usually gets to me later then it appears on GB, unless it's Jap/Asian related stuff, in which case GB doesn't cover it so well quite often.

I'm generally here for the forums because most of the people are awesome. I have not listened to many BombCasts, it's always downloading new ones to my laptop via iTunes but i have not listened to all of them. 
 
I'm also interested in the quicklooks, but endurance runs are not for me really.

i occasionally listen to the bombcast, i don't watch the ER because i don't find watching two dudes (even if they're Jeff and Vinny) play an RPG to be very entertaining, and to watch 150 episodes of that, where each episode is very lengthy, just doesn't interest me. i watch the quick looks, reviews, check out the news and i browse the forums.  
 
so not very serious i suppose.
