It''s ok, but it''s a bit short on content. I want to kill the Game Grub guys. I especially like the programs they have on game developers. Their documentary on Insomniac Games was great. Their guide to getting in the game industry was nice, but it didn''t really inform me anything -- I already know all of what they''re talking about and more. They also have a tendency to repeat programs quite a bit.

What''s interesting, though, is that it seems that they are holding off of close-ups on violent games. On things such as Screenshots, there are no violent games. When they talked about the QuakeCon tournament, they never zoomed in on the screen. I assume this is due to viewer demographics or something.

I just recently saw a Game Grub segment. The soulful singing of the bannana made me want to vomit. Overall I like the channel, though. My favorite show is Icons, like elendil67 said, with the developer/industry figure profiles. Other than that, Starcade reruns, Cinematech, and the Screenshots segments are some of my other favorites. Overall it''s okay, but it being such a young network, is going to need some time to get a good library of content going.

I like G4 but lately they have been selling out. Icons is a good show but some of the recent episodes seem more like ads for games(splinter cell,lord of the rings).

Yeah, Game Grub is getting on my nerves. And the screenshot''s repetiveness is getting old too.

I like portal and to be honest that kind of scares me.

I like Filter and Pulse.
