    It all ended with one last rerun of The Top 100 Video Games of All Time, followed by the final rebroadcast of the first episode of X-Play, ending with a game of Pong slowly zooming away, followed by a man shouting "I'm at Comic-Con!" and shutting off like an analog TV with a Game Boy startup chime. To me, this was like a perfect end for such a one-of-a-kind channel.

    I remember finding this channel by exploring directTV's channels when I was 11 years old. seeing a show called "X PLAY" and being curious.
    THey were talking about Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg, then next was CHEAT. It was so mindblowing to see stuff about video games on TV when I was that young.
    The monster that this channel turned into, wasn't always like that. It's sad to see a childhood thing go away, but I'm happy to see the shithole that this channel became dead.

    • @TheVeryAngryShrimp
      @TheVeryAngryShrimp 9 лет назад +3

      I grew up with TechTV and saw the merges happen as I grew older. It was great, watching all the old shows. Portal. Judgement Day. Cheat!. And growing older alongside X-Play. That channel made my, and everyone's lifetime a little (or a lot!) special.

    • @generalcoon47
      @generalcoon47 9 лет назад

      Cross99obx I remember when I first found this channel on DirecTV. Ironically, I
      first started watching it around 2005 or 2006, which was about at the
      end of it's heyday. I honestly think that it was doomed to failure
      anyway because when it was launched in 2002, I'm sure no one expected
      all the gaming and technology content to be based entirely on the
      internet. Gaming and tech lore on TV is obviously a very outdated
      concept. This would've been the only reason why it failed if they hadn't
      ruined it with more reality trash then original content.

      I discovered the original G4 back when I had Satellite Dish TV in Summer 2003 and I was done with 9th grade. Yeah G4 came out 2002 so I missed the premiere but it’s still close enough. Now I already knew about the reboot which was only in RUclips. But I didn’t discover the reboot on my Verizon Fios cable until August of this year. It was boring.

      X-Play Archive search youtube, there's ALOT of other channels like your archive, especially the older episodes. Another thing you can do is go here archive.org/details/g4-xplay and if what's on that page alone isn't enough, use the search bar just be sure to type " g4 xplay " into the search bar first and either specify the episode or game your looking for, OR just search that and use the various filter tools. Finally, anything you find on youtube or anything off their main site: www.g4tv.com, if you enjoy it and want to save it use this www.clipconverter.cc to save them. Enjoy, this is what helped me gather more.

It is just going to be hard to find alot of new xplay stuff, don't get me wrong i've been finding alot of reviews and clips. But even then X-play made atleast 1200 episodes. I do't think we have found half the reviews. But again thank you for the help and the links. It is much appropriated.

      Hello G4 savvy RUclips user,
      As you may have heard, the G4 network is coming back later this year. (That's 2021 if it takes you as long to read this as it did for us to reply to it.)
      Here's the point of all this... do you want to just watch crappy, unofficial fan uploads? Or do you want to watch crappy official uploads of NEW G4 content? Think about it.

      G4 IS COMING BACK! I mean... hey...
      Commenters on G4 videos break down into two basic groups: Those that know G4 is coming back in 2021 and those that want it to. And then there are a bunch of people who really hate G4 and feel the need to tell people about it. So, maybe there are three groups.... I think. My math is getting fuzzy. Anyway, G4 is coming back!

      As you may have heard, the G4 network is coming back later this year. (That's 2021 if it takes you as long to read this as it did for us to reply to it.)

      Don't worry. COPS is not coming back. Still crossing fingers for Cheaters though! Kristin Adams was such a great host.
      Anyhoo, follow the trail of digital breadcrumbs to our RUclips channels for the first new G4 content in 7 years!

      G4 Canada just signed off with no warning whatsoever. They probably did it hours before the official sign off time. Most likely, after a show was done, things looked like there was another show coming. Instead, the channel had a black screen and some silent sounds. It looked like "dead air" or something. Kind of like the "silent minute" that some TV stations would do. It probably lasted for several hours. It looked like a Technical Difficulty moment. Then, it signed off. No fanfare or anything.

    I hope they should bring this sign off back one more time on November 18th when G4 shuts down, and replace “I’m At Comic Con” with a snippet from Frosk’s famous words where she would say “If you don’t like it, don’t watch it, PEACE!”

      Congratulations G4 video commenter!
      I noticed you posted about G4. What a terrible/great network that was. It's coming back! Later this year in 2021! What a terrible/great idea, right?
      Okay, we're gonna wrap this up. Click on our little icon and it will take you to some channel that has videos and stuff. This has been great (and I don't just say that to everyone).
      Wuv woo,
      Your G4 pals

      Fred Noonan, you nailed it.
      As you may have heard, the G4 network is coming back later this year. (That's 2021 if it takes you as long to read this as it did for us to reply to it.)
      Okay, we're gonna wrap this up. Click on our little icon and it will take you to some channel that has videos and stuff. This has been great (and I don't just say that to everyone).

      Wow, this comment indicates you'd be stoked to hear the G4 network is relaunching OR you fell down a RUclips rabbit hole you now regret. Either way, we can work with this.
      We're all living in a world where G4 is relaunching! And it's already started, just click on our little CHANNEL ICON and you'll see.

    Actually the "I'm at Comic-Con!" line wasn't said by Kevin Pereira during Attack of the Show but rather a Saint Seiya cosplayer (the Ramses Project, he can be found on RUclips) said that on Pulse (a gaming news show before TechTV merger).

    I've only learned one thing from this: the "best" way to keep people watching your network is to let it die very, very slowly. Just let the years go by, the original programs expiring until the network becomes a venue for syndicated reruns of shows you can already see without cable or satellite and then, eventually, is reduced to nothing but a shrinking game of Pong and a blip on the screen with the sound of a Game Boy behind it. So long, G4.
    In reality, I haven't seen it since I dropped Dish and got DirecTV... 4 years ago. Didn't really miss it either, but it's truly a shame how they tortured the tens of people who loved the channel and wanted the old stuff back. Of course, it never happened. But hey, if you have hair like a guy in the '60s, a beard like a mountain man, and wear Yosemite Sam-sized tight pants, Italian suits and ugly sweaters, there's always Esquire Network!
