After Jeff left Gamespot, I kept an eye on his blog.  Eventually, news of the Bombcast surfaced there and I began listening to that.  Eventually, I joined the GB site.  I was never a member of Gamespot, I just like the Hotspot podcast with Jeff and Ryan.

Honestly don't remember. I've been coming here for a little over a year, and it is definitely the best site out there in terms of staff. Love the crew here.

When Jeff and the guys left gamespot, I left as well. I kept an eye on Jeff's blog and found out that he started another site. Been going to GB ever since.

I heard about it from Jeff in an interview with X-Play where he announced his website's name. Had never heard of him before in my life as I solely visited Kotaku and 1up for my gaming news back then but hearing about the situation (or what little we know about it) I sympathized with him and decided to give his site a chance. It's now my main gaming site in terms of community.

I remember seeing one of those bumb video with Jeff explaining the site, "it's a web site, about video game. Giant bomb"
was like WATTTTTTTTT Jeff made a site!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and google'd it.
 
there wasn't anything on the site yet and I though it was just a joke and didn't come back
then I heard the guys from the 1up game of the year Podcast and I was O!!!M!!!G!!!
loved the site ever since
 
the best site ever when I was 15 was Gamespot, 
the shits happens and then the best thing ever was 1up along with Giantbomb close to 2nd
then shits happens and and Giantbomb is my primary site.
 
nope there isn't a pattern anywhere : (

I was on the Myextralife.com forums, and we were talking about our Games of the year for 2008, and one poster mentioned the Giant Bombcast episode. Which led me to poke around, cuz at the time, I wasn't listening to a lot of podcasts that were exclusively about video games. All I had was general nerd stuff from Extra Life Radio, or World of Warcraft podcasts.

After a recommendation from SomethingAwful's Let's Play forum.  I worked through the entire endurance run before even looking at the rest of the site.

It's hard to miss things that are giant.  Especially when they are explosive.

First heard of it at launch trough Jeff and Ryan's blog but never signed up until recently because I've lost faith in every other gaming website.
