Default Attack of the Show

Did anyone watch it? Adam Sessler was co-hosting. Personally, I thought he made a GREAT addition to the show and wish he would stay. I actually laughed out loud at some of the things they did. I'm not so sure Kevin liked the new, temporary edition though. Adam did overshadow Kevin a bit, but I loved it nevertheless. The screensavers really went downhill ever since Leo and Patrick left.

Attack of the show is completely stupid.

I mean, its the same cast, format and set as the Screen Savers, we're just going to call it something different so people think it's cooler!!!

Actually, he's the complete opposite of a tool. A tool would be Laura Fry or whatever her name is.

lies. all lies my friend. x-play has the most objective reviews of any game review establishment. they don't get caught up in hype. even when they give good reviews to a game like doom3 or hl2 it's not for the same over-hyped reasons like in other review sites. though they sure as hell don't give a 1 out of 5 score to doom3 just for the sake of being controversial badasses. every good and bad score they give is well explained and deserved. i'm glad the quality stayed the same in the transition to g4. one thing that is lame when they went to g4 though is all those in-show gamefly plug ads... "this game may suk, don't buy it, rent it, at gamefly.com".

I don't get Tech TV (G4TV?) anymore and haven't even seen the channel for several years since those whores at timewarner decided to move it to digital cable only. Well, as long as I get TNT I'll be ok.

i never saw techtv so i have no basis for comparison but having recently gotten digital cable, ive checked out G4 and AoTS seems decent enough to me. what happened to kevin rose? saw part of an eposode last week that was supposedly his last. adam sessler is the co-host with morgan webb on xplay right? if thats the guy thats gonna co-host aots now, that sucks. cant stand his voice/mannerisms/personality.

I personally can't stand anything about the network. I find it offensive to a degree actually....they're essentially making stereotypical charicatures of the subculture. They're like that annoying guy who invites himself and hangs out with your friends trying soo hard to "be cool" and "with it," but is ultimately obnoxious. I used to love old school ZDTV and TechTV with actual tech people that talked about tech things.....not Formula D and Virtual Vixens

way to feed the lonely, horny, nerd stereotype who loves dubs....IM MEAN WTF!!! this is trash! and real life, self respecting "gamers" knows this, and has a life.

And I want to kill Adam Sessler.....im sorry but the bastard isn't funny, he's like 35 trying to act 15, and worse part is, he oblivious to just how aggravating he really is, which is like 282934723974 times worse....you know the people im talking about


The only person I could semi stand was Kevin Rose.....cause he didn't act like a freaking stereotype, just a normal guy. But I think he left, go figure!

He probably knows it, but he just doesn't care... like I wouldn't. He acts like he wants to, and if you don't likeit, you can stop watching... and since you did that, good.

Personally, I think they could do some minor adjustments, but they are fine the way they are.

You don't know how to tell the true mettle of a person. Adam is unassuming, humble, witty, etc.

If I single him out of the rest of the people at G4TV, the comcast executives might get wind of it and fire him. They have destroyed and will destroy anything good on what used to be TechTV, and if there ever was anything good on G4TV (which I doubt).

BTW, Adam Sessler is better than you.

He is?? How do you know that, you don't even know me(what is this, middle school?)?

You know what, I agree with you in not knowing the true mettle of a person, i'm sure he is an alright guy IRL. I'm talking about someone's TV personality. How they convey their persona in a certain context.

If you want to further discuss this, PM me, because I won't get into an arguement here nor take insults
