On their latest podcast they said Mario Maker 2 doesn't have Skinny Mario. But the game does. It has skinny versions of all the characters in the game.

Isn't the only thing the site is good for is their giant game database that is better than the one on GameFaqs?

I stop listening to their podcast when GG started. I'm shocked that the show/site is still up. everything changed after ryan died. Jeff was an empty shell for years after.

No. Almost anyone that "creates content" for a gaming site doesn't actually play vidya because the time spent doing that would cut into the time they spend virtue signaling on twitter and trannyera.

the giant jew cast has been shit for a long time. don't you remember the episode they/patrick klepek couldn't stop fawning over Zoe and her shitty non-game? Giant Bomb East is even worse, and that sucks because vinny used to be the "cool one". anyway, why would you even listen to these soy-cucks in the current year? (thank god Rayan died before the sjw infection completely took him over)

Depends on the game really. It probably has the most comprehensive list of old games but it's mostly just that, a list. Trying to find any sort of meaningful information is just impossible. That said, the tags there are pretty great and helped me find tons of results in those "help me find a game I can't remember the name of" threads.

I've only found it to be useful for box art but even that is usually low-res.

If Giant Bomb was just Jeff hating games it would be fun.

Yeah hunting box art, especially PC stuff, any older than the NES is like dumpster diving. You might find what you want but you won't like how it looks.

Jeff only seems to (officially) hate japanese games. heck even when he had nothing good to say about destiny he still gave it a high score. fuck him and his bitch ass hypocrisy.

Seems to be the way.

His taste is weird as fuck, he likes idle clicker games but shits on Mario Party because it's random pointlessness, and hating Yoshi's Island is irredeemable. He's funny when he tears something apart though.

Use Wikis (Like SegaRetro), Mobygames, and/or GameFaqs (In that order) if you want to find boxart. Also, TheCoverProject.

Playing games takes too much time away from shovelling fried chicken into their bloated faces.

It's great if you just want a quick rundown on the gameplay. But their credits section is really lacking. Gamefaqs and Mobygames are more complete with their credits.
