TechTV(Xplay) and Gsn Video games.
Ive been watching these sows just recently. First of all, are there any other video game whos in the states? And second, what do you think about the shows in general? Since most of video game reviews can be gotten online (and are better than these shows IMO), i really dont see the general purpose of these shows on TV. But I guess existence of these shows show just how much popular the video gaming has become in our society...

i second xplay being great. my main attraction to it is probably due to fact i have dialup so i get to see high res game movies(the halo 2 movie was great on xplay but i'd never download it via dialup), games, etc. if i had broadband i'd just dl warez and try the games myself.

Check out G4TV.com and their cable station. They show nonstop 24-7 video game coverage. The majority of the stuff they cover are console games but there is some devotion to PCgames as well.
Good stuff.

I suspect that Morgan Webb and sleevless blouses are a prime reason XPLAY is on tv.

I think xplay is pretty lame because it doesnt take issues seriously. The jokes they crack is sometimes funny but mostly annoying and they go off topic waaaay too much to fill out 30 min segment of their time. Its kinda pathethic that they cant fill even 30 min with just video game content that they have to add minutes of stuff like insulting interns and morgan and adam's first time experience w/ paintball (which was pretty funny, but not really about video game isnt it?)
Gsn is everything that is xplay minus adam, aka a male to be made fun of Plus friggin annoying Gsn music that plays every 2.5 min to fill 30 min segment.
These shows have hardly any coverage at all. But they are entertaining to watch.
