As far as I can tell, they haven't been on the Office for the past week.

Bombcast was recorded on Dave's house and there's no "This is Only a Test" Stream today, not counting the lack of content other than writing from the sites. And Gary is at Will's house, as opposed to their office.

However, that sounds crazy to me, as that basement is pretty awesome. And, as I remember, they said they got a crazy deal on it. Maybe it was time for contract renewal, but they didn't get the same deal?

While we wait, lets take a look back at some of Giantbombs earlier videos! Such as the Iphone app ad.

IF the office were being moved, I would have thought Vinny/Drew would be over there at least, unless it is all being moved for them.

Maybe it's already moved. Like I said, there hasn't been "from the office" content for a week. All the quicklooks could've been on the pipe for a while.
 
Remember the mystery noise from the podcast a few weeks back? Was a piece of structural steel failing in the building, and as such they've been forced to relocate.
 
I can't imagine how them being acquired would be good news. They are literally in the best possible situation right now when it comes to ownership. I forget the guys name, but I think it's the CNet guy who owns Whiskey, and he seems content to let them build up their readerbase without milking revenue out of the sites in shitty ways.

I think being acquired would be a lot better news than the alternative of no longer existing. Not to be doom and gloom, just saying. That's what happens to start ups that don't make money and can't get acquired. It's a reality.

I love Whiskey's content and just want them to continue by any means necessary.

But yeah, I'm ready for the good news!
 
Their offices are in San Fran right? That's a stupidly expensive city to live / have a business in. I wouldn't at all be surprised if they moved operations.
 
Isn't G4 off the air?

surprisingly, no!

It's still among the worst 5% of all television channels though.

G4 USED TO BE SOMETHING DAMNIT

even though it used to be so low rent, when G4 was stuff like Arena, Portal, Blister, etc. it was actually kind of awesome. It was never great or anything, but at least they stuck to their guns. That channel is a fucking joke now.

My cable provider didn't carry G4 until they swallowed TechTV and destroyed one of the best cable channels I had at the time.
