How fitting consideirng for the past 2 live shows and repeats i have caught all i really hear is XBOX and HALO.Gets pretty boring fast. For a gaming show it seems very bias. I own a xbox , but isnt the centre of the gaming universe.

Also your news coverage is pretty mainstream. I kinda figure for having your own show you woud go beyond reading the mainstream or have a commentary. Gaming isnt what u read off IGN or @ebgames. If you think that you are pretty shallow.

dude, did you even listen to the whole show? for the first half of it they were talking to an EA rep. and even half listening, there wasn't the exaggerated Halo talk that you mention.

fakk, what a suitable name. Dude, they're not biased towards Xbox and Halo, just Jack is. But there's often a lot of news in the Xbox world. Now, just like last time you bitched, you used very relative terms. What do you mean by "mainstream"? What would be "un-mainstream" to you? Weezerjedi has pages and pages devoted soley to imports and the Japanese markets, that's not very mainstream. Ya and just for the record, we all hate IGN.

Man, when did it become open season on The Game Show? At the risk of sounding immature, if you don't like it, do something about it. Post a topic you'd like Break to discuss, bring an article to their attention, call in during the show.

Break has made it clear that all opinions are welcome on this board, and I respect that and agree, but honestly, if you want to complain, at least offer some suggestions other than "you're too mainstream" because as Realm said, you're speaking in relative terms.

Yeah dude ... too mainstream yeah! Actually, I have no idea what that means. Talking about corporate gaming news and philosophy is NOT mainstream. Who in the general 3rd grade madden-playing audience gives a crap about business deals and mergers? This is the stuff I've heard when listening. When I was a guest way back, we talked biz decisions.

And yes, we talk about the interesting ones, which will obviously hit gamespot and/or IGN...that's their job.

Should we be talking about GamePark32 and the DISCover system to make us an "indie" show? I hope not.

Piss for pissing's sake. Dumb.

Oh and let me add...the very fact you guys HAVE a game show and that the hosts actually are real gamers is pretty sweet. Not many in the US can say that. Keep up the good work.

I always liked to think that the simple existence of the Show was pretty far from the mainstream as it was. But, if internet radio shows about gaming are becoming commonplace, by all means, point me to the others.

Just about all I can say about our news coverage has already been answered by Realm, VideoDrone, and Mothergoat. If you feel that we're using too mainstream material in our discussions, then, please, point me to the stuff you feel is not mainstream. I personally try to get material from several sources, like 1up.com and Slashdot.org, Slashdot in particular being as unmainstream as I can think of without being biased and misinformative.

If you have any suggestions on how we can improve the show, please post them. Otherwise, you're not doing much for your reputation by simply bitching.

FUCK! He's figured us out.. We talk about stuff people give a shit about. And by people, I mean me.

I welcome all opinions to this forum, and this is just the first time we've had an elitist grace our boards. Fakk, thank you for your suggestions, and welcome to the forums.
