Topic	Vinny, Brad, and Alex all just announced they're leaving Giantbomb
ChaosTonyV4 05/04/21 8:03:53 PM #52:	BlAcK TuRtLe posted... Jeff was hired to a general managerial role for the "games division" of Red Ventures, which leads me to believe they are going to consolidate their platforms and further reduce redundancies. That's why they let go of the dead weight in Abby/Ben, and Alex/Vinny were probably ask d to move back to San Fran to keep their jobs, to avoid having to pay for 2 different offices/studios. All four people involved left of their own accord, let alone were let go. BlAcK TuRtLe posted... This is all conjecture, but so far all of the facts are lining up. They likely had a 6 month non compete when they signed on to RV (maybe another reason why Abby left) with the decision to close GBEast coming after they signed on. Vinny already personally shot this down. BlAcK TuRtLe posted... If I were a betting man I would say Jeff eventually leaves too once his contract is up. This is major deja vu to the founding of Giantbomb originally. What will be interesting is to see if they spin off and do their own independent thing, or move to another company that wants to get more into games coverage. Giant Bomb IS Jeff. Until he retires for good, it would be insane for him to leave. --- Phantom Dust. "I'll just wait for time to prove me right again." - Vlado <cite>ChaosTonyV4 posted [p:953559621] in Vinny, Bra...
