Meet the Game Dogs - Gary and Bethany

[MeTheMe]

I'm not one to bash something for anthropomorphic animals, nor am I going to hate on anything for angry characters that I don't know very well yet.

I DO have one problem so far though. That is for an advertisement for a comedy, it wasn't very funny. I'm open to the idea that it will be, so I will probably view the first few, but if you advertise a comedy, show something funny to rope us in!

 

[Stevepinto3]

The instant reaction to this as furry says a lot more about the people spouting that around than the show. I get no more of a furry vibe from this than from Loony Toons(before the internet scarred my childhood of course). It reminds me some what of The Office with dogs. In fact when I first heard Chet talk I instantly thought "Jim".

As for whether or not it will be good, I'll wait and see. The Apocalypse Lane teaser left me with doubts but now I think I like it even more than ZP.

 

[SeaCalMaster]

Heh, heh. I see what you're doing. It's like VG Cats, except it's dogs instead! How clever.

OT: Forgive me if I wasn't blown away by the trailer. I'm willing to give the show a chance when it comes out, but I'm not really looking forward to it.

 

[Yog Sothoth]

I'm just going to say it, and please don't hate me for this, I really don't see much humour in this at all. I doubt I'll be watching it.

And why do they have to be dogs?

Anyway, sorry to the guys who made it for insulting their hard earned time and all, but I really don't think it's very good.

Agreed... I hate to say it because I know that people have put a lot of work into it, but this just looks really... lame.

At least the furries should like it... The ***** female dog has a bedroom eyes, or somehting...

 

[WillSimplyBe]

Ah.... I.... um....

You know, its not even worth arguing with people anymore, this is just ridiculous. The escapist has a history of people angrily wandering about spouting "I don't like change! Its scary and disconcerting!" whenever it comes to a new show. And yet, nearly ALL of those shows have garnered a fanbase! Rebecca Mayes Muses, Apocalypse Lane, Unskippable, Unforgotten Realms! Hell, everything that isnt effing YAHTZEE!

So i just say to hold on, and this show too, shall eventually find its fanbase. Especially when haters lose interest in trashing it and go back to whatever the heck they were doing before.

Till then, I withhold judgement.

good lord, and I thought Fox News overreacted.

 

[ADDLibrarian]

I'm gonna make bitter first impressions here, but I call ripoffs from both VGcats and Code Monkeys. The whole concept sounds dumb. Then again, I could be surprised. But considering how they almost look like the VG cats...I dunno. I mean, take a look at this strip; in this one, you see the VGcats as dogs in the bizzaro world (this is by no means the funniest of their strips, but whatever)

[[Cold-Shoulder]]

Seems a bit odd but I'll give it a try.
I still don't know why everyone is getting frustrated over it. :/

 

[Specialist Willy]

I'm not really sure what to make of this. It looks like it has promise but then again, trailers are often misleading. Therefore, I'm looking forward to the first few episodes.

 

[AdamG3691]

remember ANY romance subplot and you will have the entire internets screaming for your blood and proclaiming the escapist is "RUINED FOREVER!!!1!!!one"

 

[InsertWittyName]

Wh-...Why-....I jus-...
*goes into a state of denial*
The escapist MUST have been hacked, this all just a troll thread, THIS IS ALL JUST A TROLL THREAD!!!!!!!!!

 

[inpachi]

Naw doesnt seem a bit funny to me.. i didnt do so much as a smile.. Just looked like a bunch of furry porn disguised as a comedy show..

 

[SeaCalMaster]

Can someone please explain to me why so many people on the Internet have such a preoccupation with furries?

 

[Keswick Gallagher]

This is getting annoying I love the Escapist I go on it more then once every day but there Pre Video ads and now this Game Dog show keeps redirecting me away from the videos I chose to watch i've watched the previews and not only did I not find it Humorous I actually found it annoying

Fair enough if you want to Put out a new show it doesn't have to be catered to my tastes but please stop irritating people who want to see the videos they click on with pre Video ads or some hidden ads all over the internet linking you to a preview of a show that isn't even out you

Your a Big website

you Don't need to advertise your own up coming show this advertising is doing nothing but putting people off just release it on it's release date and if you want make a Bigger Display picture for it on the Front page and the Video page but Stop trying to Create hype

Because it's a proven fact that every one of them is a plushie-shagging weirdo who can feel good about themselves only by dressing as a deranged NCAAB mascot.

Just like everyone who plays video games is a sad and obese excuse for a human being living in their mother's basement and dying as a virgin to joint inflammation caused by excessive masturbation.



You can't change the internetz. Just kick back and squeeze the entertainment value out of it.

If the only kind of bad attention is no attention at all, this series is getting a good start.

 

[Hamster at Dawn]

Hang on, "Human Resources"? I thought they were dogs. Think it through, guys.

 

[Discord]

I'm a little vexed...

One hand I enjoy anything that is aimed to entertain because in the world we are in now we all need a little entertainment (no matter where it comes from) if only for a while.

But I'm reminded by what yahtzee said by assumeing everything is shit unitl proven otherwise.

I still don't know why everyone is getting frustrated over it. :/

Yeah me too.

But yeah I'll give it a shot.

 

[Taerdin]

Bow WOW! Look at Bethany! She's one foxy doggy lady!

I'd hit that! ... with a newspaper!

 

[Wewt]

The only thing missing is a laugh track, then it pretty much fills all my ''don't watch this'' standards.
The animation is really bad by the way, what's up with that?

You ever try making one episode of an animated series a week? It ain't gonna look like Disney I can tell you that much.
