Scott is upset that Adam Sessler has left G4...What will Sessler do while not working at G4?
Talent allegedly showed up only to have programming cancelled.
If you've paid attention to what they've about since their resurrection, this is anything but a surprise. A shame to those who've lost gainful employment (of course), but this was destined to be a precarious setup from the start.
They were great at one point...but times have changed...
It's like comparing og youtubers to today's massive streamers. The internet and trends change very quick.
The comeback was cool at first, but then every video turned into a 45min+ podcast. And while i enjoy a podcast from time to time, not EVERY video needed to be that
The channel is finally being taken behind the shed.
Many memories as a kid. I wish there still was a Video Game channel
Sadly, G4 died a long time ago. Someone just finally decided to bury the corpse.
As one of the last writers at G4@Syfygames (the last vestige of their online games journalism), I felt this was coming for a while. I'm honestly surprised that it's taken this long, with how it was treated by the higher ups who own the channel.
Doesn't change the fact that it's a huge bummer though. :(
On this week's episode, former co-host of G4’s X-Play and the current president of TheoryHead, Adam Sessler, joins host Josiah Renaudin to talk about the new games media landscape. They cover modern game reviews, how we talk about games, the importance of sites like Waypoint, how X-Play was done from episode to episode, the brilliance of Horizon: Zero Dawn's design, and what Adam's up to now.
I've never been a personal fan of Adam Sessler but hearing his insights about game industry (or specifically in being a gaming journalist) is quite interesting.
What will Sessler do while not working at G4?
Much better things, I'm sure. This man is way too balanced, smart and philosophical to be tied down to a failing game network.
I hope for the best of him wherever he will choose to go.
