Anyone With A 211 Receiving Game Play Hd?

If So What Do You Think Of It Compared To G4tv?

Total waste of HD transponder, but then so are some of the other Voom channels.

I like GamePlay HD, but it does need more content. But I prefer it to G4tv, well I think everything is better than G4tv since they canned Screensavers (No, AOTS is not a good replacement, it sucks, HARD).

Well GamePlay Rocks! I'm a big gamer and getting to see some of the top CS Clans in the world play is cool. Like Team3D is is one of the best gameing clans out there in Coutner Strike. So overall its a great channel!

Ya

I agree. A good channel. Bring back Screensavers and it would rock. AOTS has got to be the worst show made. Bring back LEO!!

The most recent rehash of AOTS is really bad. When they first switched over it wasn't too bad, because it still had that Screen Savers feel to it. It's such a shame the format is terrible because I like Kevin Pereira and Sarah Lane. But I do miss Kevin Rose. It's just all very commercial now.

Actually i think GAMEPLAY HD channel is pretty cool compared to other waste of HD airspace voom channels. Love watching trailers and gameplay footage in HD . On the other hand G4TV has lost my interest for a while. Its just not fun anymore. They have some boring shows.

One knows they are not "with it" anymore when they read a thread like this and have no idea what anyone is saying. "Clans?" "AOTS?" "LEO?" "Coutner Strike?"

I agree that this channel would be great if they could carry "Call for Help" and other Tech/Computer oriented topics

Oh sorry well for us gamers "Clans" is just another word for Team. Like Clan Team3d they are a Counter Strike team that play in big game trounments around the world and they are the #1 team in the U.S. plus the world. So basically they are professinal gamers that have sponers so on. Like the last big Counter Strike tournment that was on GameplayHD the trounment payed out $100,000 to the winning team. They also have other big game trounments for other games besides CS which is Counter Strike. Like Unreal,Halo and so on.

Clans are game player groups, some just casual, while others are professional teams playing for money and bragging rights against players from other parts of the world. Team 3D is the number one Counter-Strike clan, they are sponsored by Intel.

Attack of the Show (AOTS) is the very crappy phoenix rising from the ashes of ZDtv/TechTv's Screensavers which was one of the highest rated channels on the channel. After G4's take over, they moved everything to Los Angeles, most of the staff was local to San Francisco, most did not make the move so they quit and went elsewhere. G4 canned alot of good shows from ZDtv/TechTV. Extended Play is the one show that still retains it's name and format.

Leo is the man. Leo Laporte, he's a tech guy that everyone can relate to, easy to listen to and a funny man. He was/is host of Call for Help and was co-host of the Screensavers. He is currently doing his daily computer talk show on KFI 640 AM in the Southern California area, he also runs a very popular podcast called This Week in Tech (TWiT). He is also an accomplished author.

Counter-Strike, this is back to the clans description. Counter-Strike is a online multiplayer game where players take either Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist and go head to head for different objectives. Terrorists plant bombs, guard hostages or kill the VIP. Counter-Terrorists defuse the bombs, grab the hostages and take to to safe points or guard the VIP and escort him to his rendevous point.

Hope that clears some stuff up Tom.

Thanks.

You didn't really have to answer. I was just finding it humorous how there was a conversation going here that might as well have been in a foreign language as far as I was concerned.

People take on the roles of terrorists in games, where their objectives are to kill people with bombs???

 

[Sarang]

I wonder if Gameplay HD even has ONE show catering to import as well as console gamers instead of showing complete love to FPS PC gamers like it sounds. I'd say something more contemptable about your lot and the fact you screw people like me out of any good Japanese and Korean PC RPG's from making it out over here but I'll keep my mouth shut.

Makes ya wonder eh. Fortunately 99% of them can discern the game from reality, I hope that number is close anyway.

Voom has been a disappointment to me personally and I must say Charlie actually said something true when he stated there was very little content.
