Gerstmann Reincarnated Via Giant Bomb

Jeff Gerstmann, the former Gamespot editor who became the subject of controversy that shook up the review website’s staff and reputation, is making a comeback of sorts with his new website Giant Bomb. What’s it about? Here’s the word from the man himself:

So let me start by telling you what Giant Bomb is, and then I’ll briefly touch on what Giant Bomb will become. Right now, we’re opening up this blog, where myself and others will be writing about games, covering them in much the same way I’ve been doing on my personal blog for the past three months. Sometimes it will be off-the-cuff, sometimes it will be reasoned and well-thought-out. We’ll review games here, and we’ll talk about upcoming stuff, as well. We’ll occasionally chime in on the news that surrounds the game industry, both here in print, and in our podcast, which will grow out of the Arrow Pointing Down podcast that I’ve been doing with Ryan Davis for the past few weeks. Yes, we will still continue to speak our minds on the latest happenings in the beverage and snack food industries. Don’t you worry about that. We’ll talk about games there, too. Surprise!

The website is still under development, but the initial launch looks promising. It already has a review of Professor Layton and impressions of Army of Two are up as well. I expect that we’ll be seeing a full review of the latter sometime soon.
