Hendo Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I liked it. This. Didn't see a whole lot to argue with, really. Good program, well done Mr Brooker. Actually, it comes the closest that I can think of, in being the videogame equivalent of Top Gear. I've been thinking about this for ages while overdosing on Top Gear on Dave - we need a program about games that doesn't go down the kiddy route and makes something that's interesting for non-gamers to watch and won't offend gamers by dumbing it down too much. I think Brooker got pretty damn close to this, more please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Downloading from iPlayer on my phone at the moment, will try to watch it at work today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboxy Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 just finished watching the first half (tuned in at half 10 last night..) i thought it was good. Entertaining and funny, but bitter and negative at the same time, ie charlie brooker.. I wasn't sure who it was meant to be aimed at, brooker fans who don't play games or brooker fans who are gamers. Either way, it was good and i'll be watching again next week. Good to see the consolvania chaps as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 it was a one-off Jim, I'm really sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Reflex Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Viewing figures show it was more popular than the other screenwipe series. I'd be happy for him to incorporate the gaming into the screenwipe show tbh, it might show people that are not into games that it isn't all chainsawing peoples faces off.

stoobie Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 I watched it on iPlayer last night and really enjoyed it. I've never seen him do anything before and like his style of humor. I would pay money for the Push Mylene Klass in the river game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickled Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 i liked it, it made me chuckle, also dara o brian summed up my exact feelings about content, plus getting stuck on the berserker on GoW was my exact experience with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Just watched end of year screen wipe, which was awesome but infuriating. Mainly I'm angry that Bob Geldoff isn't an abusive father, but also just how much shit tv there is. Not Screenwipe though, that is awesome, as is Newswipe which is back early next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted December 23, 2009 Author Share Posted December 23, 2009 That Peaches Geldof thing was literally astoundingly bad. Fucking pissed myself laughing with the casual L Ron Hubbard reference at the bookshelf. And the science discussion in the diner. Dear god!

Hendo Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I had to watch this on the Wii iPlayer as the one on my laptop doesn't seem to want to show content on the page. I think Barry Shitpeas stole the whole program with his commentary on Nick Griffin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
