For the record, I don't think Morgan Webb even gave Super Mario Galaxy 2 a 5/5. That was whoever wrote the review, Morgan just read it.

And yeah, Morgan Webb is a joke. She hates on Super Mario Galaxy for being "childish" but raves about Ratchet & Clank for having a gun that burps. And I have nothing against Ratchet & Clank but isn't that a little hypocritical? She also evidently loves Wind Waker and the Mario & Luigi series.

G4/X-Play as a whole is a joke anyway. Adam Sessler was the last good thing they had left and now even he's gone.

Yeah, I think a good majority of the reviews on X-Play are written by their writers, rather than Adam, Morgan and whoever else they have on the show right now. I think it was like that before G4 took over TechTV. The only review I am aware of that was written by the host was Sly 3 where Adam both wrote the written review on the website and did the TV review for it.

Heh, I KNEW you were going to say a Sly game.

Adam also wrote the review for Resident Evil 5 himself, in addition to doing the TV review for it, I believe.

Well of course, but it's still funny (and kinda sad) listening to hear read off a positive Nintendo review anyway (even if she didn't write it, and doesn't feel that way). You can just tell by her voice; it hurts.

Forced system updates.  I try to use Netflix on my PS3, but it won't let me use it unless I update the system.  What if I don't give a shit about the update?  All I want to do is watch shit on Netflix, I don't know why you require me to do an update.

I wonder what this means for the Red vs. Blue guys.

Japan's first week sales for RE6 are in. It sold about 33.6 times the copies of Max Anarchy. :zonk:

Well at least we know that the franchise isn't in danger.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

So G4 is finally ending X-Play and Attack of the Show.

Huh.

That bothers you?  It's more like who cares at this point?

I've only seen Attack of the Show! once, but then again I've never really watched a lot of G4, and really the only time I've ever had the channel was when Directv still carried it; out of all the cable systems I've been on(including Comcast in Chicago and Cox here in VA) I've never had it.
