papanesta Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Don't get me wrong, I don't like it either. But sometimes, it is actually the only thing on. Especially if you only have terestrial television. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clown. Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 i have terrestrial to - sky is to expensive, especially when you have to pay for the sport channels and movie channels on top of the normal payment. i would get it but i just cant be bothered to spend that much money on sky when only a few channels are actually worth watching. i tried freeview but it f*cked up my tv so im stuck with 5 channels for now...

papanesta Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I have freeview, only worth it because E4 will be available soon. And, my parents won't get sky because of the dish... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 My parents allready pay for my broadband so they wont pay for Sky because they wouldnt get any use of it. Simply because they dont have time for telly half of the time so my freeview box does me fine in my bedroom. *strokes reciever box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCJ. Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Ah, Gamesville, brings back memories, the website claims that they're taking a 'well deserved break'. For a year? Its blatently been cancelled. Don't tell me you actually liked that programme anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes I did like it thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCJ. Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 The format wasn't bad, its just the way they brought in two models to present it, I mean one of them was in a f*cking Spice Girls video, it would have been better if the presenters had a clue about gaming. @paps: 'Twas on Sky One Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Haired Freaky Guy Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Ah, i remember sitting down and watching one of the reality shows where they were all put on an island and they had to survive on rations etc etc. That was fun, now they are losing ideas on what to base reality shows on.. Gamesmaster will always be the best gaming show ever... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosAlert Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 gamer.tv (on Bravo) is a hell of a lot better than Gamesville imo. I know there is also a late gaming show on ITV, have no idea what's it called though. Oh, and BB... in two weeks? I didn't know that. o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyzoot Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 lol at Gamezville. The presenters were terrible! The G-Team were alright though and they always had some idiot kids who were only there to get on TV. Don't get me started on the Games Guru!!!!! Gamer.TV is alright, it's got the guy from the Airwaves advert **Which Gamezville presenter was in a Spice Girls video and what video was it?** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyLeone25 Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Gamezville - Bollocks! 4-10yr olds need only watch! Gamer TV - Mature programme for the mature gamer. GamesMaster - Was the dogs bollocks, haven't seen it for around 7yrs now. Pacific Poker UK Open - WOOOOOO! PartyPoker Open - WOOOOOOO! God Poker is the only good thing on TV these days along with CSI, Football & shoddy yet quite pornographic 'erotic thriller' movies on Channel 5!!

papanesta Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 My favourite gaming program was Thumb Bandits on Channel 4. But it just... stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datalord Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 I was going to mention Thumb Bandits but then i saw your post pap. Was good, informative and the only prog like it on terrestrial TV. I actually remembered about this yesterday and tried the C4 site, but nothing, removed.

Goodfella. Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Yeah Gamepad aint been shown in about two years I think. When Games Attack is pretty funny, Dominic Diamond is funny and that Caroline Flack is hawt. Around the World in 80 Games was good too, shame that aint on anymore.

PCJ. Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Phantom Menace isn't it? Not the best one, but still something to watch what with the lack of decent shows on anymore, looks like they'll be showing them all in chronological order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Phantom Menace was great, I really enjoyed it in the cinema....probily the worst has to be Episode 2....man, that was really boring...it seemed to drag on and on and I can only remember about 4 parts from the movie.

gta3pcguy Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Did anyone watch the 100 greatest war films ever? It was on over the weekend. I thought the choices were pretty much spot on, only a few quibbles but then again it was voted for by the public.. I think they did an ok job considering. The top 10 was: 10. The Bridge On The River Kwai, 1957 9. Black Hawk Down , 2001 8. Zulu, 1964 7. A Bridge Too Far, 1977 6. Platoon, 1986 5. Full Metal Jacket, 1987 4. Schindler's List, 1993 3. The Great Escape, 1963 2. Apocalypse Now, 1979 1. Saving Private Ryan, 1998 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
