    don't know but i would rather watch those shows then what G4 has here. they have a few shows we have but not on for hours at a time. the owner of G4 US said that what they are doing seems to be working for them but he don't think that would work here in the US because. everything comes down to ratings for him and some how G4 us is getting better ratings doing what they are doing now then what they had in the past some how.

    those that don't remember extended play before it was xplay watch this. this was not bad now.

    bringing this thread back cause i noticed a few things here

    First off on G4 now a days.. The only original person out of the entire thing tech/ZDTV days and G4 days both is Adam Sessler of Xplay
    he is the only veteran host.
    Sad thing is they became as you guys pointed too straight arrow with their reviews. Its like you take that douche bag dude that takes one small thing and uses it as a motive to make things sound 10x worse then they really are

    My favorite incarnation was the ZDTV days when the show was called Gamespot TV.... remember those days?

    much friendlier setup and straight to the point and a much more broad reviews that show every good and bad instead of focusing on one bad and then make the game seem like crap just because of that

    and yes i miss Screen Savers
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dvtee...eature=related
    from that side of the channels

    and G4... well one thing i really miss is this

    now a days its just cops and boring reality shows that aren't as cool as they use to be so we just blow them off and ignore them.

    So does it surprise me G4's dying slowly?
    not at all. and its their own damn fault for doing this
    so... good bye g4
