So if they are catering to their audience is there a problem, really?

You mean like how Microsoft and Sony are catering to their audience?

I was thinking of the people who watch the show...

 



Tease.

Congrats! now go outside!



I use to looooooove X-Play but it got annoying... I can see what people mean by X-play's biased... it does seem to kind of be that way.

They always get into the hype, and help hype up games which always leave me so disappointed when I actually buy it and play it. They are just as bad as some video creators or media. *I'm talking about the creator of Fable 2*

With the anime comment, its stupid how they pick some random game from Japan, and then make fun of it. Obviously, its for a certain target audience, Of course America isnt going to like it if its guy on guy relationship game, or just some anime. Most guys I know are really into Call of Duty, or Animal Crossing, or games like that.

I dont watch it anymore, and now I have more reason after hearing they picked Fable 2 for best game of 2008. Really? Best? Of 2008? Could they not think of any other game that was at least kinda better? Fable 2 wasnt THAT good- in my opinion wasnt good at all.

I really love Reviews on the Run. I think that show covers all platforms really well, and even go back to the GameCube once in a blue moon. I think they are fair-although sometimes they bitch about stupid little things that real gamers dont care for.

Lastly, is it just me, or is Olivia the stupidest bitch on the face of the planet? She is not funny at all! When I was first watching Attack of the Show, I kinda thought she was funny... but after a short while, her jokes got old. She's just there because she has nice breasts. The guy she works with is a lot funnier- in comparison- and I enjoy his jokes sometimes. They had a girl come in and host for a while in Olivia's place and she was much more enjoyable to watch than that other twit. I was actually able to enjoy the funny stuff the show had presented.

All in all, G4Tech TV is a boring place if you arent a hardcore gamer/anime fan. They have a ton of shows that cater more to a fanboy/girl, than a casual gamer, and thats where they are missing out.

the only show I would ever reccommend is Reviews on the Run, other than that dont waste your money. Dont buy G4Tech TV!!!!!!!

does any serious gamer watch G4?



 

I'm in London so I've never heard of or watched x-play so in an attempt to understand this alleged bias I'll ask...

What's their coverage of Killzone2 like?



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

Every multi-plat game they review or preview is the xbox version of the game also I counted the number of times they mentioned xbox ps3 or wii n 360 has it by a mile also it's on the xbox marketplace so that's say something right there. Remember wut happen with the netflix thing n the Sony movies? It's microsoft again.
