Giant Bomb Video Game News

Video Game News, Stories and Updates for the PS3, XBOX 360, PC, PSP, Wii, and DS

Added by Jeff Gerstmann on July 6, 2009

The time is now! The impossible is now possible! The Giant Bomb iPhone Application For iPhone And iPhone-like Devices is now available for purchase in Apple's App Store!

Needless to say, we're pretty excited. Partially because the application is really cool. It'll let you watch all our videos... yeah, that means you can now catch up on the Persona 4 Endurance Run while driving cross-country. Or watch video reviews while standing in a game store.

Of course, text is also represented. You can dig through the database to view pages, read news stories like this one, reviews, all of that.

But we're also excited because it means that we finally get to show you this commercial we made for the application.

  
How can you say no to this amazing offer? You can't! Head over to the iTunes Store and turn $1.99 into an eternity of magical moments!

Update from the Engineering Team:

It looks like an older version of the app somehow made it onto Apple's webservers. Unfortunately the app will crash when trying to load more then 25 videos at a time (you can still view videos from the game pages). Also, news stories will show a broken image where the embedded videos (like the one in this story) should have appeared. Simply click that image to launch the video. An free update will go out as soon as possible so there's no reason to wait if you want Giant Bomb on your iPhone.

This is amazing. Congrats so much to everyone involved. Looks like a great product.

EDIT: Also, the commercial will go down in GiantBomb history. When the site is gone, it will go down as one of those videos that everyone remembers GiantBomb for.

You guys must win an award for most app warnings on app store ever

Really impressed by the application so far. Shame about the low quality icon, though. Just makes it look a bit amatuer'ish amongst the rows and rows of applications on my primary (index?) page. Would have been nice to just have the logo with a transparent background, sort've like the Sky News one.

Also, that video was fucking hilarious. Bravo, sirs. Bravo.
