I'm glad Kessler can't be an option.

Stephen Colbert returning from Late Night to join Giantbomb.

You got it backwards. Colbert is taking over the Late Show because Letterman is joining GB.

Finally GB will join the industry trend of top ten lists every day.

The speculation in this thread keeps building momentum.

Thread collapse when Jeff announces the new hire?

This needs an update...

Aaron · May 30, 2014

So you're saying the new hire is Bozo the Clown.

Fevaweva · May 30, 2014

It should be PewdePie. That dude is HILARIOUS

He's about as hilarious as an amputation.

komplanen · May 30, 2014

Would be awesome if the new hire was announced today. I don't think it'd be that far off...

No, he just sucks.

Ghost · May 30, 2014

Anyone who likes a bit of Vinny should watch the intro of the Point on Gamespot for this week btw.

Fevaweva · May 30, 2014

I would've thought the italics and the bold would've shown that I was being sarcastic. Evidently I need to practice my sarcasm over the internet.

Think about it. Piediepie and Jeff in a room for 2 hours playing a video game. Jeff would either kill this guy or slowly go insane. It would be great.

Nah, they should wait until he/she actually starts (in about a month) just to see how crazy this thread (and the thread on the GB forum) will become.

Yes, fuel the crazy. Revel in it.

This is all dio's fault that sleaze.

What if they announce the new hire the way companies debut pro wrestlers? With short teaser promo videos that play in between live shows leading up to his/her actual reveal?

There is plenty of dumb stuff they can do if they hire Dan Ryckert

Jeff, Ryan, Vinny and Brad invading a live Gamespot show like nWo is the greatest missed opportunity from the CBSi acquisition.

Kelas · May 30, 2014

Is Dan Ryckert the guy who did those videos with his dad? Because those were amazing.

Edit: Googled and yes it is.

There is a picture somewhere of Jeff next to an nWo logo that he posted the day he reappeared on GameSpot.

I came home from work today and all I wanted to do was watch Jeff and Vinny play Person 4.

Patrick looks so out of place hahaha

shadyspace · May 30, 2014

Patrick would never put his arm around Brad's shoulder.

Myggen · May 30, 2014

If anyone's interested, a guy over at the GB forum posted a big link dump of most of the old Gamespot Hotspot episodes with the GB guys: http://www.giantbomb.com/forums/off-topic-31/links-for-old-gamespot-hotspot-episodes-with-the-g-1484943/#2

I honestly expect that they won't announce who the new hire is until they start.

So, yeah. It's going to be a month of insanity.

Balehead · May 30, 2014

I'm hoping for a really unceremonious reveal of who the new person is. First appearance in a bombcast / QL / mailbag out of nowhere.

"So Jared, how was your week like?"

Would be even better if they first hyped it up with stupid teaser campaign and then did that.

Mookie1515 · May 30, 2014

This Worms game looks like the first Worms game I would want to get since Worms Armageddon. Having Jen from The IT Crowd as the narrator doesn't hurt either.

Megasoum · May 30, 2014

Apparently Zac Minor from Revision 3 is starting his new gig "Shortly after E3". And he's doing part time work for GB during E3. Could be the new video producer. Would be nice, he sounded really cool on Rev3.

Freedom = $1.05 · May 30, 2014

guys, it's tommy tallarico. He was on the same network with patrick klepek, giant bomb's last major hire, and he also uses the internet. Just connect the dots, it's so obvious.

Hire Mega 64.

Feedly errors make for some interesting article/icon combinations.

This new Worms game looks really weird...

I'd love to hear her opinion.

Carrie was nice to me on Twitter, so I'd like it to be her. Natalie Portman can be my second choice.

Seriously. Dan Ryckert gets my vote.

The day they reveal the new hires, theyre going to have them draped in shadows. The lights slowly turn on to reveal....
