Links: Giant Bomb

Websites about video games are a dime a dozen, but perhaps none have the pedigree of Giant Bomb. That's because it was created by Jeff Gerstmann and Ryan Davis, two former editors from the most popular gaming site on the Web, GameSpot. Gerstmann was fired from GameSpot under questionable circumstances; several prominent GameSpot editors like Brad Shoemaker and Vinny Caravella soon left the company to work on Giant Bomb.

Their experience gives Giant Bomb a professional feel, and the site features excellent video features, well-written game reviews, and a large user-editable game database. My favorite video series is "This Ain't No Game" (TANG), which chronicles and lampoons game-to-movie adaptations.
