The screen wills spin and battle music will start to play. You and drunk friends will be forced to stand in a line rocking back and forth holding over sized swords. A group of retarded looking monsters will appear and you will take turns hitting each other. When it is all over you will get 648 Gil and a fire ring. Why the 12 foot tall monster with no hands had a fire ring that fits everyone from you to your grandma will still be mystery to man.

I knew G4 was dying the moment they started airing Star Trek The Next Generation for more than 2 hours a day and brought in The Man Show which has been played to death! I call this Karmatic justice for the BS review X-Play did on Beatmania!

They're the G4 of the gaming magazine world.
(...And that's saying a lot, given how many crappy game magazines are out there.) | |

(...And that's saying a lot, given how many crappy game magazines are out there.) | First, I'd like to say that I adore your Rocket Slime avatar. Second, I wholeheartedly agree with you. Gamepro's gotta be the worst gaming magazine around. I've heard people complain about the late Gamefan as well, but the issues I picked up of that I really liked (although it was mostly their focus on more niche games that I appreciated rather than their tone).
I just tuned in to G4 last night for the first time in months to watch some of the X Play reviews, and they were almost unbearable, so this is good news to me. Bye bye, G4! | |

Bye bye, G4! | Well, I'm glad that I'm not the only one who doesn't like what G4TV has become and that it's demise would be a good thing given all the crap they have done to TechTV fans and Bemani players. Something that I did see that is of interest is the 'official' G4TV blog at http://www.g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/The...lly_Bogus.html they are not closing down like numerous other outlets have reported, but supposedly are falling under the E! umbrella of things for Comcast. Now, I remember this exact line of bullshit getting said when TechTV got bought out by Comcast. Then they 'merged' TechTV and G4TV which in reality consisted of canceling every TechTV show and getting rid of all of the personalities from that network with the exception of X-Play which never really recovered to be quite honest. So who else thinks history is about to repeat itself?
