MERCH!
Giant Bomb - a website about video games and the people that make them

The New Giant Bomb Dot Com

Old Website Design

Hey y'all - if you're seeing this, that means the new site has gone live on giantbomb.com. I've been working on this thing since July, stopping only to get married and go on our honeymoon. The first thing I feel like I need to say is: This thing is not perfect, or 100%. But we needed to get this done before 2026, and I hope you're happy with the direction of the new site.

Reddit comment: 'Remember when Chucktowski posted that they should buy the site, and the whole subreddit was like "that's dumb, what are you talking about, why would they do that"'

Importantly, all of your blogs (now named articles), lists, and reviews have all come with us to the new website. Some of these exceeded a character limit that this site is designed to handle (over 40,000 characters) but I have copies of literally everything.

Over the coming months, the homepage and design of the site will continue to evolve - I'm a big believer in iterating on a concept, and anyone that's been on the beta site since August knows this thing has shifted quite a bit!

Hey, some stuff looks broken! You're right, that's primarily due to the Wiki being incomplete (some templates are not finished), semantic linking between pages isn't complete, or possibly some actually missing data, but the latter here is the least likely.

If you know PHP or JavaScript, we can probably use your help on the project - the GitHub is here.
