@bisonhero: I honestly would not have known this was happening unless my friend texted me about it, which makes me really sad.
I was with GB since the Arrow Pointing Down podcast. I had just been dumped, I was young and depressed, and Jeff + Ryan made me laugh when nobody else would.
When Ryan passed, I actually deleted my old account, because it was just too painful to visit the site. I fell off video games as a whole, quite honestly.
Eventually I would come back, watch some quick looks, etc. While I'm not a regular like I used to be, it would have been nice to see SOMETHING announcing what was going on. Hell, I was miffed I couldn't read the results of GOTY without listening to the podcast.
Sorry this post is so negative, it's just this place used to mean a lot to me, and over the past few years it seems to have turned into random streams akin to Twitch. I kept waiting for something big to happen again, and it just never came. Now the site as we know it is kind of over.
I think Jeff will figure something out for sure. He's a very smart dude. And I think all the other guys will rock at whatever they choose to do. Alex, in particular, is too goddamn good of a writer for today's video games. Plz write a book duder.
Anyway there's my vent and grieving. Thanks to all the guys and gals who made this site something special, and Dan, Ben, and Abby for injecting some new life into it at a good time
Godspeed
