I shed tears when Ryan Davis died. When Patrick left I felt like I was losing a friend. When Drew decided to leave I felt like a member of my family was moving away. When Austin left I was sad to see a true voice in the medium leaving the community. Dan left and Originality and chaos were gone for a bit. Then the Nextlander folks left and I was truly done. Vinny was and still is my shining light in the dark of video game journalism. Alex is and forever will be my favorite horrible game reviewer, and Brad with his golden voice.( see his rendition of Common People in karaoke) Then the True Leader of this website Jeff left some months ago. With that I felt like the idea of Giant Bomb ended. A website started as a middle finger to the corporate side of the business, inevitably swallowed by the same people it was created to combat. I know hindsight is 20/20 but I think if Whiskey Media didn't sell to CBS in the beginning than we wouldn't be in this situation, or at least not one as turbulent as this. I will forever be a Member of Giant Bomb. I'm so glad that this site and the personalities who make it were a part of my life. A BIG PART. I just want everyone who truly made this site great to know that your work positively and forever changed my life. We share an interest sure, but the joy and companionship that you brought us fans will never be forgotten. At least by me. So in the end all I can say is Thank You. And good luck, Have Batman!
