Sorry if this has been asked a hundred times, but what currently is the best way to stream Giant Bomb on your TV? I remember on a semi-recent video Jeff was talking about which was better a Roku or Chromecast but I can't find the video again. Any advice would be great, thanks!

Correct. The app is not doing very well. The official one or the "in-beta-for-seemingly-years-now" one.

Agreed, definitely not Roku. If you use Chromecast then you could use the unofficial Giant Bomb Video Buddy app to stream GB content that way, and GB Video Buddy works great. It even syncs your watched content if you connect your GB account to it.

Thanks for the answers! Sounds like Chromecast is the way to go

Both have some privacy concerns. Just grab a Pi 3 A+ ($25) or a Pi 3 B+ ($35) and just throw Kodi on it. There's a great Giant Bomb add-on for it in its default repositories.
