Giant Bomb On Your iPhone: The Time Is Now

Watch videos and view our database from the comfort of your iPhone.

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.

I don't have an iPhone, but I'll be damned if I don't want to get one based on the funniest GB video I've ever seen.

Best. Commercial. Ever!

I don't have an iPhone (nor do I plan on buying one), but the app sounds pretty cool. I'd definitely get if I had one.

Is there any plans to make this app work without 3.0? I would buy this today but I don't feel like paying Apple to upgrade to 3.0 right now.

Made my week, you can have my money for that commercial alone! Though I intend to use the app to a great degree.

That was a totally ridiculous video.

However; iPhone? Really now... Not everyone is american and cares for such overpriced phones which are only popular over there.

So when will we see a nicely optimized site for any other pda/smartphone with a browser? That's the important question.

Android/Windows Mobile anyone?

The only lesser point of Giantbomb sadly, too american in some ways.

If you're joined by a large group of Android users who also shout at us a lot, that might just lead somewhere. You never know.

This is hands down, the best video on GiantBomb. Possibly the whole of the internet. "HI, JEFF GERSTMANN HERE FOR OXY CLEAN!"

Maybe someday I'll actually own an iPhone.
