I guess it's kinda old news, but I don't watch the show that often anymore and just found out today during an episode.  It's never been the same since Olivia left, and even before then the channel as a whole has been a sinking ship.  No wonder Kevin, Adam, and Morgan left so abruptly.

I heard the exodus of all their talent after Sessler was more in reaction to a complete format change of G4 as a channel from game-focused to man-focused (an emulation of Spike TV?).  Man what a train wreck.  But then again, that G4 has changed so much over the last ten years...

Can't say I liked X-Play. But can understand if people are upset if they did enjoy the show. The same way I felt with GameSpot TV (Loved their Dreamcast coverage) and my fav of all, The Zone.

Would even enjoy repeats to some extent of those shows.

I've never liked X-Play.  I know that lots of people enjoy the snarkiness and sarcasm but I really can't stand it.  I've been told by people who have worked with him that Sessler is really a good guy so I'm glad he landed on his feet.

You nailed it.

In general G4 has been "the COPS channel" for me for a long time.

I used to dvr gametrailers tv on Spike but it was never on time and always getting cut off so I stopped bothering.

Yea before the merger G4 was great and TechTV was great.
THe fancy merged logo designs they made was cool but the programming decisions have sucked.

It is like Court TV becoming Tru TV. "Not reality actuality." i believe was their slogan for awhile.
Or TLC no longer being The Learning Channel and turning into a television cesspool.(That decline started more like 15 years ago)
