I still watch it, but it's not as good as it used to be. It used to be like, 8 reviews a show, even when it was a half an hour. Now it's all "industry news" and Mr. Sark contests with the occasional 2 out of 5 review. Dislike.

I watch it. I know a lot of people hate them now because of some review they gave that no one agreed with, but it's still nice to see what they say about a game. Also, I watched the 4 player co-op gameplay for Borderlands, and I can't wait for the game now. Looks incredible.

they used to be good but recently (past year or so) they have gotten pretty bad and their reviews have gotten rather iffy

Eh, I'm not a big fan of X-Play ever since their incredibly biased and unprofessional "review" of Resident Evil 5 and then I realized that most of their reviews are unprofessional.

It's went steadily downhill.

I still see it now and then but I don't leave it on for more than, say, 5 minutes.

I watch it and I've watched it about 3 or 4 stage changes ago. I don't mind that they've cut down on the comedy crap, a lot of the times before all that was in a review was random references to movie stars and stupid jokes about Naruto and "Believe it!" and crap, they never actually talked about the damn game.

Now they have a bunch of previews and hands on demos of games, plenty of news, and good reviews to watch. I'm not saying that they shouldn't have those comedy skits and stuff, some of them were really funny, but most of the time it got in the way of the games and the previews and stuff.

Though it wouldn't hurt if they brought back Johnny Xtreme...

I used to, but then my cable provider dropped it, and now no more X-Play for me :(
Note, I liked the old episodes better, where it was as much comedy as game reviews. Like the episode where they were "serious" reporters doing a show (a la 60 minutes) about violence in video games. It was really funny.

it's the only decent thing G4 ever produced, and that's only because they scavenged from techTV. i will never forgive G4 for ruing techTV.

I used to, but I stopped around 2005 when it became all gay and fart jokes. Same thing with Attack of The Show, G4 ruined my Tech TV :(

I have watched it since I was about ehh 8 years old and it used to be great but now it has really gotten less and less funny and their reviews suck now to but I still only watch it for gaming updates. Although Adam Sessler I think is still trying very hard and I still enjoy watching him the show but Morgan Webb has the personality of a towel but is still nice on the eyes.

I do still watch it, but only for news on upcoming games. I don't care for the MMO Report, I can't stand Blair Herder, and I take all their reviews with a big grain of salt.

For someone who's been watching the show since it was Gamespot TV on ZDTV, I'm saddened by the way it's become.
