GameSpot TV (1998–2022)
8/10
Good despite its faults.
27 January 2007
After watching the show for about 2 years now, I've moved on past the shoddy reviews, the crappy 5 point review scale ( Which doesn't offer half points, just a scale of 1-5 ) and the fact that so many games get 3/5 without a bit of explanation and realized that hey... At least it's pretty funny, and at least we have a show on TV " reviewing " video games.

Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb do a great job on the show, but sometimes their " Witty " comments during reviews drive me insane. I want to know MORE about the game they're reviewing rather than if they're going to be able to come up with some stagnant joke at the games expense.

I'd love to see a 10 point review scale, or at least half points to make up for the lackluster scale they review games on and ACTUALLY review the games they display ( Sometimes they actually do provide a review, but it seems that it doesn't happen very often ).

X-Play could be ingenious, but it just falls a tad bit short due to the creators need to feel that they're obligated to entertain more than educate us about WHY the games are getting the scores they do.

I do watch it quite often and find the show to be very entertaining despite the few faults the show has. The same goes for most video game fans.
