About Ryan Davis (video game journalist)

  • Giant Bomb is an American video game website and wiki that includes personality driven gaming videos, commentary, news and reviews, created by former GameSpot editors Jeff Gerstmann and Ryan Davis.
  • The website was voted by Time magazine as one of the Top 50 websites of 2011.
  • Originally part of Whiskey Media, the website was acquired by CBS Interactive in March 2012. After being terminated from his position as editorial director of GameSpot, Gerstmann began working with a team of web engineers to create a new video game website.
  • His intent was to create "a fun video game website" that would not heavily cover the business side of the game industry.
  • The site's core editorial staff consists primarily of former GameSpot editors.
  • Giant Bomb was unveiled on March 6, 2008, as a blog; the full site launched on July 21, 2008.
  • The Giant Bomb offices were originally in Sausalito, California, and as of June 26, 2010, they were moved to San Francisco.
  • A second office was established in New York City in 2015. Content on Giant Bomb is split between its small staff providing videos and written articles in a video game journalism editorial capacity and its community expanding upon it by creating and interacting with the website's tools and functions, namely a video game wiki-database, open to editing by all registered users in which they create content.
  • The Giant Bomb staff reports on video game news and reviews new releases.
  • Their weekly podcast, the Giant Bombcast, is posted on Tuesdays and covers recent news and releases in the video game industry, as well as happenings around the office.
  • Giant Bomb produces a number of regular video series including Quick Looks, 20-90 minute unedited looks at recently released games.
