Within G4 TV's forums a topic has been started for Rewards for Achievements story Deacon broke on Unscripted 360.com

They copied the article from gamespot however I do believe it was also mentioned on G4 TV itself... :popcorn:


G4 TV Forums (http://forums.g4tv.com/messageview.cfm?catid=8&threadid=690087&FTVAR_MSGDBTABLE=)

Some of the members there have begun to speculate what the rewards are..

Oh yeah if you decide to visit the link be warned lots of cussing in the posts!!! LOL..

G4 is only a shadow of its former self. I cannot stand "AOTS" anymore. A great show that use to be called 'Screensavers' got morphed to "AOTS". I was fine with that until Kevin became the main host with the new co-host, Oliva. She keeps messing up on her lines and the show shift to a raunchy side with sections like "In your pants". They annoy me and that isn't easy to do. It is sad when you look forward to the days when they aren't there and they get temp hosts like the comic book girl.

It was on ATOS last night. At the bottom of the screen they scroll different topics and exactly what you mentioned was on! I did a double take when I saw it last night. lol. Was pretty sweet to see it on there :)

i'm with ya on that Green. but when you mix corporate mumbo into things, that's usually the result unfortunately. plenty of people have your same sentiment...

I agree wtih ya there totally Green... G4 tv has changed too much :(

From what I saw of the forums last night I won't be going back...

It's more of a bunch of people cussing instead of discussing....

Downplaya!

You're probably close to being #3 in gamertag recognition behind that tool Nelson and the very kind, lovely, and talanted TriXie.

Here we go with the Major Nelson bashing...that'll earn you some points.

Was I in a contest or something? What would these points gain me exactly?

What has Larry ever done for me, for that matter what's he ever done for you?

I owe him nothing. I continue to spend massive amounts of money on a product that keeps him employed. It would not be any kind of an exaggeration to say I have to be one of their very best customers.

So who should be loyal to whom here fanboy? The problem is you have it all backward.

I understand the edit. It just frustrates me that guy will never know the truth. It's a story that needs to be told. Hopefully someday it will.

What has he done for me? Well besides providing hundreds of hours of entertainment with his show, along with being the only place for up-to-date Marketplace news (and actually helping things like the Prey demo to be released sooner than usual) he has sent me a Major Nelson headset and a "Xbox 360 For Dummies" book. It was show #161 that I won on. (http://www.majornelson.com/archive/2006/02/06/show-161-the-one-afer-the-move.aspx)

What edit are you talking about by the way?

In a sense I was reminded it is not my story to tell, so I cannot. I wish only you knew how much you didn't know about the situation.

Everything you describe is just a guy doing his job. I don't thank people for doing what they are supposed to do.

As for his contests, I'm not the only one that suspects they are rigged. It's kinda curious how his most vocal supports seem to always be the ones that win.

G4 is alright when you can catch a new show most of the time they have repeats on. X-Play is alright when they review newer games and not a game that came out six months ago.
