g4 is always on 360 balls. I don't know why everyone is obsessed with the 360 is a great platform but if you are going to be a Tv channel that likes videogames, then why are you only covering the 360 exclusive thats like your local news station covering the world and not anything locally lol.

PS3 players still watch that network? Its owned by M$, just like 90% of everything on the internet, TV and movies. Stick to reputable news sources, G4TV is just a bloated advertising agency paid for by M$.

G4 sucks. And X-Play is a joke. Its supposed to be a show for all things gaming but the shows main, and sometimes only focus, is the 360 platform. Microsoft products get more airtime than Sony and Nintendo products combined. Just make X-Play officially a Microsoft show and get it over with already. They would actually be doing us a favor.

well I guess we didn't figure out ... it is called... Xplay (Xbox360 play it all), including sponsor game tournament... DOA4, and stupid race game ... you name it... is all around us before we know.

I don't understand why people even bring up "X-Play" or "G4TV" on these forums. Even some well respected members on this forum post articles about X-play and G4TV regularly... Suffice to say that they are called X-Play for a reason... In any case, the shows on G4TV are aimed at amusing a teenage demographic with stereotypical teenage humor, not reputable game reviews. Even if I were an Xbox fan, I would steer clear of that network in favor of a more professional source.

I cant just believe that they are doing this
NG2 is a mega flopped game. It got 7 from Gamepro, gamereactor and Gamesradar. It bombed in sales especially in europe
Too human is already being shunned off by the critics. go read some previews. expect the game to get very low scores like HAZE
Gears2 was HYPED until GAMEPRO revealed the 300 feet BOSS of RESISTANCE 2. They termed R2 as BIGGER THAN COD4, BETTER THAN HALO3
They termed it as BIGGEST GAME OF 2008
seriously what do u expect from XPLAY?

x-play = xbox everyone knows this. Attack of the Show is ok. alot less PS3 bashing. Plus it funny, sometimes. it gives some good info one games.
another show is Gametrailers on Spike tv. they did a great job on the Resistance 2 exclusive.

Seriously. I'm getting tired of seeing one of these threads each day. I thought it had already been established that they're a biased "source". I'd hate to meet the people who actually rely on G4 for gaming information. Real gamers get their news, and information from the internet, and the information tends to be more reliable and accurate than whatever G4 scrapes off the IGN and Gamespot news pages every morning.

Very true. It get's boring when people talk about how much they hate a certain website/TV show but they keep going back to read/watch whatever they complain about.
This is also why I don't usually watch anything on TV about video games because everything they talk about is usually Xbox this and Xbox that.The only thing I've watched is the Gametrailers that comes on SpikeTV and that's only cause they were doing the special thing about Resistance 2.

Even mags lag behind the internet. They are could for features with Devs though. And other such interviews.

This should not even be in this forum. It's just turned into a troll/flamebait thread. I personally enjoy watching G4, including X-Play. By the way, the X in X Play is for "Extended".
I see reviews of all console titles and PC titles on that channel. I don't care if they are biased to the PS3, 360, Wii, PC or Atari 2600. I get to see the games in action during reviews and make my own decisions. It's a game channel, and shows tons of fun stuff, including cheats for any console.
This bias talk gets old. PS fans claim sources are biased when they trash the PS, and the Xbox fans claim sources are biased when they trash the Xbox. Both sides accuse the same sources of being biased. It's ridiculous.
However, if you don't like G4, don't watch it. If you don't watch it, you won't have anything to complain about or comment on.
Lord, your opinion is noted on the E3 line up. How is NG2 a flop when it is selling well in the U.S., and has a metacritic score of 81? Last I knew an 81 was good.
GOW2 is supposed to rock the house like GOW1 did. Every preview so far has been in love with it. Game Informer is giving it huge praise as well.

I think it's probably a good program if you're an Xbox 360 fan. If it is in fact owned by Microsoft then why the hell would they not favour the 360...
Do owners of a ps3 go out and buy 360 mags? Do owners of 360 go out and buy ps3 mags? No, of course not, because you wan't to read postive stuff about your system.
If you guys think they should cover ps3 more, then Qore should cover some 360 news...
Watch a show that is catered to your console, like you buy mags that are catered to your console.... :D

That is the thing. G4TV is not owned by Microsoft. However, Microsoft did get G4TV to put some shows up to buy on their Video Marketplace.
Why buy the show when I can watch it on my TV for free? (well...I pay for cable, but you get the point).

Well that throws any valid point of my post out the window....hmm.. dammit.
So people just assume it's owned by Microsoft because it has a 360 bias...?
Still, if the makers want to do more on 360 it is their choice. Oh well, i'll run along now... :2gun::2gun::2gun::2gun:

I don't really see any source that is more biased than another, more so, I see a preference in some. Saying that a publication has something to gain by being biased is pretty out there.

I agree with you 100%, I watch this show all the time, I always see them previewing PC games, i even seen them do a couple of PS3 exclusives. I see the Xbox 360 on their alot, but its cause that was out first, and alot of people like it. So more viewers

G4 has some good shows, I watch Unbeatable Banzuke, Sasuke (Ninja Warrior), Kunoichi (Female Ninja Warrior). But thats about it... they also show cops and uhm, that show cheaters, not sure why they show those.

The funny things is I was watching the other day and they went down their top 5 "Gates". Well ole Bill showed up on there surpise surprise and Morgan Webb made a joke saying "Great job Bill, keep the check's coming!" Somehow though, I don't believe it's a joke. She always gets excited when she gets to rag on the ps3.
She's a whiny little runt isn't she. **GASPS** What I said runt?

Everything is biased, this forum and it's well respected are biased, big deal. We learn to sift things and judge them based upon what "we like".
There's 1 reality and then there's those who try to make excuses for that reality.

Ive never seen G4 bash sony UNLESS they deserved which it just so happens they often do this gen. they made stupid mistake after stupid mistake, MS has made far fewer but you know what, they always criticized MS for their mistakes as well get the **** over yourself seriously.
