Hands up all of you who were here some 4 or 5 years ago when RO:OST rolled out? Remember all the good reviews, well all but that one review by g4tv? The darned tools played single player and got pwned by bots, dident even seem to realize how to aim. Well we sure typed up a hella lotta insults towards them on this forum in a post that is now locked (ergo i cant thread necromancy). Well long story short, byebye g4tv, you have been outlived by something successfull...

Dish Network and Comcast still carry it, so it isnt totally dead yet. It isnt a bad concept either but it needs a total retooling of the programming. I for one will miss Ninja Warrior (but I have Dish Network so I'm not missing it yet).

Ah, i vividly remember those douchebags.
God, i was torn between being angry, laughing, and crying. I just didnt know what else to do but either of those things with that turd of a review.
Part of me still wants to smack them. Another part has to laugh at the idiocy of running at the ENEMY in OPEN VIEW without any cover, while reloading their rifle, and still have the guts to complain when they get shot. BY BOTS EVEN. God.

What do you mean "bots even"? With anyone but a bot you'd hear his shot miss and then it's circle-dancing clobbering time.:p
We didn't have a thousand topics suggesting spades for nothing.:D

Just rewatched that review. It's so absurd it actually sounds like a parody of someone's else's negative review.

No kidding, it really was the most amateurish and phoned in review i have ever seen, that wasen't either a joke or done by a small angry child on youtube, and i'm not just saying that because they didn't like RO either, it was just that bad.

Like SiC-Disaster, i didn't know wether to get angry, laugh or cry, it was just absurd to me.

And nothing of value was lost. G4 wasn't dedicated to the gaming lifestyle, it was dedicated to marketing garbage to casuals.

That's how I felt every time I watched anything that wasn't a film on G4. RIP TechTV.

Yeah, TechTV (ZDTV) was great. Leo LaPorte and crew.. that was good viewing. This Week In Tech is pretty good, check it out when you get time.
