Oh man. Drew's been my favorite lately.

I hope they can find someone else to fill a similar type of roll, he was a good change of pace from the "never leave your house" personas of Jeff and Brad. We need a new "outdoors man" who can talk about stuff that isn't so nerd/geek culture constrained.

 

[JBourne]

But he hasn't finished Final Fantasy VI. He can't leave.

 

[Intheflorsh]

Really surprised to hear this, the dude was the glue holding GB west together since Dan left.

Nuts. They now need Griffin more than ever. Move to SF dude. Do it!

You want Griffin but you're getting Nick Robinson.

 

[t hicks]

Nooooo

 

[Bersi]

Started following GB a year ago but damn this sucks,nevertheless best of luck to him!

 

[xxracerxx]

Can we worry about the state of the site yet?

No, because that is ridiculous.

 

[AleeN634]

Aw man, he's been there since the early days. Best of luck in your future endeavors Drew!

 

[Majine]

Get Peter Brown, he's in the same building?

 

[Jibbed]

I am legitimately saddened by this.

I'm sure he's moving on to bigger and better things, but GB West is in dire need of some new talent.

 

[Papacheeks]

Wonder if he is going for his full pilot License to fly privet planes/jets, unless he got a better gig at a bigger station for broadcast or something.

 

[Dangansona]

Can we worry about the state of the site yet?

No reason to. I will say though my interest in the Bombcast is at an all time low.

Thank God for the East Superteam.

 

[Stereogatari]

Nuts. They now need Griffin more than ever. Move to SF dude. Do it!

Jeff and Brad will make Griffin cry

Especially Jeff

 

[momshotdad]

Heartbreaking. Drew is one of my favorites and easily the most interesting guy on the show outside of gaming. I hope he gets that pilot's license

 

[mike6467]

Yeah, I'm surprised how well that's gone. I miss Austin a ton, but Dan gives them a different tone entirely and it's been great.

 

[KyleCross]

Jesus, that sucks. The Giant Bomb guys always seem like they're stuck with eachother for life, you kinda take it for granted.

 

[SeanR1221]

I'm bummed but happy he's moving to bigger and better things

 

[Lettuce]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Question is, who in the industry has a big enough personality and could fit in with the remainder of the GB crew??

First it was Ryan (RIP), then Alexis, then Patrick, then Austin, now Drew!!!!

 

[Lonestar]

Not sure I can find a proper DrewGif to show abject depression.

I appreciate his love for Flight Sims, which lead to probably a top 3 GB moment.

The thing that popped in my head first, that I'm most worried about being over: Drew and Alexis 24 hour Extra Life.

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

B-b-b-b... Alt-F1?!!

 

[Wuiji]

Number of times Drew left Giant Bomb before playing a Final Fantasy game: 0

Number of times Drew left Giant Bomb after playing a Final Fantasy game: 1

As Scott Steiner will tell you, the numbers don't lie. It's all Final Fantasy's fault.

Not sure I can find a proper DrewGif to show abject depression.

 

[MadJackChurchill]

Drew was god tier along with Vinny

Spoiler

and Jeff fight me

.

This sucks so much.

This sucks so much.

The few times when Drew, Jason, Jeff and Vinny were together were absolutely fantastic.

 

[Got]

I know it won't happen, but Mary Kish please

Yeah, I'm surprised how well that's gone. I miss Austin a ton, but Dan gives them a different tone entirely and it's been great.

Vinny plays so well off of Dan's batshit.

 

[Ostinatto]

Along with Vinny?

lol

Not even close, no one can touch Vinny.

 

[Trojan]

Can we worry about the state of the site yet?

You can, but there's no reason you should. People leave companies, they'll find good replacements.

I think it's actually a positive that GB West will get some new blood. I love Drew and will miss that dude but excited to see who they bring on.

 

[funkystudent]

B-b-b-b... Alt-F1?!!

Look forward to the new F1.cool podcast!


Hopefully.

PLZ confirm!

 

[milkham]

I know it won't happen, but Mary Kish please

what do you mean? you hope drew is leaving giantbomb for mary kish?

 

[Coldnoodle]

I know it won't happen, but Mary Kish please

At Twitch.

 

[Ilive1up]

fuckin' shit. i'm happy for him but i love him on the podcasts and obviously everything behind the scenes that we take granted for. :*(

 

[goldsoundz]

Drew is the Swiss Army knife of men. Whatever comes next, he'll slay it. GBWest needs staff, ASAP.

 

[xxracerxx]

I know it won't happen, but Mary Kish please

She went to Twitch.

 

[TheYanger]

I'm sad.

 

[RMI]

Drew was the most likeable guy on the west coast team since Vinny left. I'm saddened by this news.

 

[Got]

At Twitch.

I know, that's why I said I know it won't happen, but she's got such good chemistry with the Giantbomb crew

 

[xanavi]

This bums me out so much.

Best of luck, Drew! Thanks for everything these past 8 years!

 

[Sword Of Doom]

I know it won't happen, but Mary Kish please



Vinny plays so well off of Dan's batshit.

A female addition would be awesome.

Vinny can play off of anyone. That's what makes him the best

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

You forgot Dave,my favourite ex member.

 

[Crashdown]

We all know where he's going:

 

[mike6467]

Drew was the most likeable guy on the west coast team since Vinny left. I'm saddened by this news.

Yeah, every time they have a staff change I get really nostalgic for Jeff/Brad/Vinnie/Ryan/Patrick/Drew/Alex/Dave That was a dream team. I know the site is constantly evolving and I'm not saying it's worse, I'm just nostalgic...

 

[RPGam3r]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Need to clone Dan at this point.

 

[ike_]

 

[Vire]

The fuck? Drew is the nicest guy imaginable.

I really will miss him and wish him well wherever he goes next.

 

[Johnny Ryall]

Sad for me, happy for him. He hinted at travelling, hope he does what makes him happy.

 

[Xeteh]

Need to clone Dan at this point.

I'm pretty sure the planet can only sustain one Dan at a time.

 

[Coldnoodle]

This is worse than when Sean Coonce left.

 

[Eleuin]

I'd wish drew luck but he definitely does not need it

Dude is gonna kill whatever he does next

 

[soxinthebox]

Yeah, every time they have a staff change I get really nostalgic for Jeff/Brad/Vinnie/Ryan/Patrick/Drew/Alex/Dave That was a dream team. I know the site is constantly evolving and I'm not saying it's worse, I'm just nostalgic...

Jeff/Brad/Ryan/Vinny will always be what I think of in my head as the core Giantbomb crew.

 

[lazyguy]

No gad damn it.
I'll miss you Drew. You and your awful puns.
I wish you the best

 

[McBradders]

Bye Drew.
