Well, Here's the damage,

Junglist, one of the founding members of Good Game was sent off without even a mention, replaced with new host Hex last monday. Ignoring the Comic Sans, when you're doing a handoff you tend to, you know, HAND OFF ( Read more... )

Gotta tell you, if someone was going to push a rival gaming show on another network, now would be the time to do it.

Well SBS would be the only station I could see doing it. Ten has CyberShak and 9 and 7 wouldn't have a clue.

Yeah SBS would be my pick too.

Particularly since they just lost Top Gear, and what the genre needs is a videogames review show somewhere between David and Margaret and Top Gear.

SBS should start a new show which is just Margaret driving fast cars with David navigating. The Movie Show - Rally Edition! That would be epic and win.

But yes, SBS would be ripe for a well produced entertaining video games show. Combine it with some anime afterwards and you have yourself a night!

You don't need massive multi episode seasons, just short runs done multiple times a year. Bugger it, put it in a video game store, get a crowd and do sections in live set (ripping TG off) and be very careful about your presenters.

I think a gaming show with a live audience is key. Audience involvement, participation, ask the odd audience member what they think of the games, etc.

The problem is that you don't want to do the entire thing in the studio, it's just a framing device. But it would work incredibly well I think.
