Post proof faggot

Was Adam as much of a faggot back then as he is now?

proof

What was it like towards the end? Was everyone in a panic?

i miss techtv

The final two weeks of my job consisted of eating multiple Wendy's meals a day, watching Cops and Ninja Warrior reruns on a 60-inch TV.

A ton of things; the top two being the network not getting enough funding, and YouTube/the internet making tons of shows unnecessary. People could find out information, news, reviews and trailers the second they trickled out, rather than waiting days or a week for a TV show.

It's dead. There were (brief) talks of selling the show off to Viacom (Comedy Central and VH1 were likely choices) but everything fell apart.

Lots of them.

He was actually really cool until he snapped towards the end. He got increasingly more distant as he discovered how underpaid major 'talent' was. Apparently the straw that broke the camel's back was him having an early mid-life crisis of sorts.

Ever see Munn in person?

Did you fuck any qts?

Ever post in the forums? What was your screenname?

Who the fuck named the channel "G4" and what does it mean? Gaming 4?

It stands for

G A M I N G
A A
M M

G A M I N G

games
guns
girls
gripping your dick so hard the end looks like a blueberry with a cut in it

How are the guys from funhaus are they cool?

Be honest - how far up their own ass was everyone there like?

I miss watching it with my little brother :(

What were Kevin Pereira, Olivia munn and morgan webb like?

did u touch peenor with girl

"Gaming 4U"

FROM MARIO TO MASTER CHIEF

It was a slow, gradual descent. Nobody was shocked, and everyone had adequate time to prepare. We actually had one intern that was hired not too long before the US network ceased broadcasting.

Multiple times. She was pretty cool. Great sense of humor, and very approachable. Apparently she turned into a major cunt once she got hired at the Daily Show, and then landed her Newsroom gig.

G4 stood for the (then) four iterations of gaming visuals: text, single pixels, sprites, and polygons.

Nobody was really confrontational outside of some long-time behind the scenes people, NBCUniversal suits and end-of-era Adam Sessler.

>completely nonexistent/redundant position
Did you feature in any X-Play/ATOS skits?

What was your position, exactly?

Were you the guy that watches the broadcasts all day and if the screen blacks out or sound glitches you had to fix it?

I remember watching G4 only once. It was a top 10 games of the year, and they were showing pokemon game footage so I stopped to watch it.
Then right as my mom walked in, it changed to God Of War (I think) of some guy getting his head smashed on a rock. That was the only time my mom bitched at me.

Kevin was and is the GOAT. Gave zero fucks, treated his job like a senior during the last month of high school, genuinely was into gaming/tech, and trolled people. He intentionally called Link "Zelda" during a Twilight Princess segment and checked the forums after the episode aired to see how many people corrected him.

As said before, Olivia was pretty cool the times I met her. She turned into a huge bitch once she got her semi big break.

Morgan was pretty nice, and genuinely into gaming unlike what most people think. Towards the end, she was embarrassed of working at G4 just because of how juvenile and edgy everything was trying to be.

At the peak of my career, I was a liason between "interns" (in reality, people who did most of the work getting gameplay footage, finding news articles, interesting videos/content, etc.) and producers, associate producers, etc.

Towards the end, I was literally in an abandoned conference room watching reruns of Cops and Ninja Warrior all day.

Man, that show was funny.
I like the Hitler episode, and how being gay gave you magical ability to go through walls.

you ever meet martin sarget?

>Towards the end, I was literally in an abandoned conference room watching reruns of Cops and Ninja Warrior all day.
That's hilarious. How much did it pay?

>He intentionally called Link "Zelda" during a Twilight Princess segment and checked the forums after the episode aired to see how many people corrected him.
kek

When are they going to bring back Portal?

>G4 stood for the (then) four iterations of gaming visuals: text, single pixels, sprites, and polygons.
Lies. The ceo of G4 says his wife literally found a url name called "G4" and decided to grab it since it was the only video gaming related name available.

op's a larping faggot.

What was Shane Satterfield like?

He worked there you idiot. I'll take his word over some random-ass YouTube video.

Was the staff as left-wing/SJW as they say? Are you one?

Not him but
>he says he worked there so it's true
How new are you, little one?

Fresh off the boat

Do you sleep with you socks on or off? And why?

Watch the video, faggot. The ceo is literally talking how he got the name.

How do you even know that is really him?

Who was the best person to work with?
The worst?

over the years I've seen multiple "I worked at G4 threads." why should I believe you?

What made G4 change from being game-oriented (All I even remember from the channel is Code Monkeys and Attack of the Show) to whatever it is now?

>whatever it is now
You mean canceled?

Oh, so G4 is gone

...

For 3 years

The internet made G4 obsolete.

They would have been ahead of the curve if they would have just streamed gaming tournaments and broadcast people playing games.

>OP answers every question except the posts asking him for proof

The last time they did that they almost killed Counter Strike so I don't think they wanted to try again

why dont you disprove him?

Did you work close enough to Adam Sessler to know if he was a cool guy before getting indoctrinated into the cult of social justice?

Did you not read the fucking thread?

how do i find copies of kaiju big battel online? what was that one clip show with obscure games and shorts? where can i download that?

Of course not, I was busy fucking your mum.

was olivia sucking most of the staff cock?
including you?

I fucked your dad.

did you ever catch adam doing cocaine/did adam ever come into the offices high on coke?

How many games got a good review because the publisher of it paid for a good review? And on that note, who did the actual reviewing of the games?

Favorite moment while working there?

Please tell me you remember the xplay puppet rat.

Seems like no one think it ever existed.
If you were intern actor on xplay ever? If so you guys really made the show worth watching.

Whoever the writers were for xplay did an amazing job, shame we got two awful actors for the show.

Last question, what ever happen to the guy from Portal?
I know they just ended a show on a cliffhanger but where did his job land him?

the xplay puppet rat is on the wikipedia list of characters. So it was real

Why did they get rid of Happy Tree Friends after one season?

>Doesn't see OP answering all the questions.

Why was Xplay cancelled? It was the best show on G4.

To my knowledge, X-Play was one of the last surviving shows on the network.

Why would anyone lie about this? It's not something remarkable or that impressive to begin with.

I interviewed to be an intern there in like 2009 but didn't get the job. Looks like I dodged a bullet.
