| This show isn't really that good. I'm going to go ahead and let you guys in right now. However, season two looks a little promising:
(Hey gurl you know nothing about gaming sorry look at my asshole and kiss it while you are at it) If you don't know what this show is about. It's a "Survivor" type show where people compete to become the next Playstation game tester. The winner becomes part of the Playstation family (Becomes a Tester), along with a $5000 check, and multiple prizes. This fall embarks on this terrible conecpt. But "Hey Bitmap, why does this show suck"? You may be asking. Well...watch! So, you think this is really about gaming? Wrong! Nothing you see in that trailer has nothing to do with the competitions. Except for the finale, after vigorous tests the final three compete in beating one fucking stage on the game "Uncharted 2: Drake's Fortune". Whoever beats it first wins, and becomes the winner. Everything else? Blows. It's stupid gimmick games you would find at a Church lock-in. Anyways, I can't wait to not watch season 2. But hey, at least this guy is on it: 8bitMickey is part of the website Thatguywiththeglasses.com. Or you may have seen him on Nostalgia Critic's shows. He is in fact very funny and is a very good reviewer. If anyone should win. It's him. And is the only reason why I am going to watch this fall's season of this show. But everything else? Fuck this show its stupid as all hell |

| Yeah, I mean REAL people have their own circumstances or whatever and to no offense here or anything, but with this show you may as well also make a series about getting a job at a gas station, or grocey store, etc. Same kind of pay.
And it's not like you're always going to be playing good game or games you want, but that's your job. So go play it for 8 hours and get ready to write papers on everything about it. |

| I'd rather be a designer. At least I don't have to waste my time playing shitty games! I can make them!
Wait...I said that all wrong... |

| I'm QA.
Let me tell you how much my 2009 income was from being a QA Tester, not just for video games but software too. $75,000. Yes, you too can be a competent tester in the real world and make bank. I started in video game QA and now I make that much testing applications. Remember, I work for the NFL now, pulling in $5000 a month. As a tester for their web content. Video game QA is not glamorous, and I absolutely despise this show. But, I have worked for Sony, EA, Activision and many other companies over the years, and I absolutely love QA itself. I've even worked for Activision twice. The pay, however, for video game QA sucks, so I always wonder why people do it. Then, I remember...the overtime pay. 12 hours on six days a week is tiring and very annoying, but it pulls in bank. And then, when you grow up and get a real QA job that requires a boat load of skills (my resume is chock-full of technical requirements and certifications required to perform the big-boy jobs), you can sit back and laugh at these idiots doing these shows while you watch the paychecks roll in. But, you may want to be a designer, but ultimately, production dictates what you design unless you're running your own studio. The whole video game industry is harsh, and unless you're a shot caller, expect your years of expertise and vision to nary be used. I've been in the industry for half a decade. Don't knock my career. Xeus is right, though, it's shit pay starting out. I had that. I went through that starting out, but I make bank now when I can find work (stupid economy). And we're not playing; we're testing. There is very little about the game we enjoy, except breaking it. There's the real joy, and this show is an insult to the industry. At least Grandma's Boy made fun of us. It is only the uneducated that say "I want to be a designer" instead. Every software and game and application and website has QA, and it's vital to the design process. Well-funded, it prevents your product from being shit on the market. So, don't knock your QA department. If you ever become a designer, familiarize yourself with QA. It doesn't hurt, and in the end, it actually helps out the overall project to be familiar with all aspects of development. (Last edited by Stitch on 09-16-10 03:30 AM) |

| I would watch this just to see 8-bit Mickey because I haven't seen him since he left ScrewAttack with Handsome Tom. But other than that it looks like a typical game show. | |||

| It's either: "PS3 wins again" from ignorant viewers, or "Wow this show sucks" from the intelligent folks.
I watched an extended preview on Playstation Home awhile ago and my GOD I really can not wait to not watch this show. Also, I hope 8bitmicky does not win (From the looks of things he hasn't. He continues to do shows for TGWTG, so my assumption is that he never did make it. But hey, only one way to find out?) I'm sure this show will target someone. Like I said before I am not gonna watch this show. But I would like to see how it turns out. I'll wait a month before catching the final episode. |

| I was bored one night. I have watched all of the episodes.
See, the thing missing from the last season was actual drama. On this season? Holy SHIT is there drama! 
This guy. Big Fazeek, is the largest target to get off the show. And yet he still stays on. Why? This guy has spent millions on videogames. Has one of the largest videogame collection on the face of the planet! However, he is a complete idiot. And does absolutely nothing with whatever team he is on. I have to say that this season is actually pretty fun to watch. It's not like the last season. This season actually has good challenges and also a very interesting cast! Spoiler:
8bitmicky loses on episode 4. He really fucked up a challenge and the judges saw it as a weakness Welp, I gotta eat my words and say I can't wait till tomorrow to watch the next episode! |

| So I can't believe what I just saw. An explosion with War Princess against Big Fazeek.
Now, mind you that Big Fazeek got immunity from the latest episode. Again. Even though he wrecked his vehicle, took his sweet fucking time doing the prep work, etc. You name it. But the biggest thing. Was his ego. He felt it was necessary to provoke war princess. Who was crying for losing in the competition. She let her team down. Well, she exploded on him. She over heard Big fazeek and literally EXPLODED. Spit flying out of her mouth. Her eyes red. And real close to getting blood from him. *spoiler* Now here is when things get REAL interesting. Big Fazeek, Mo Chocolate, and Gaymer were all immune from being eliminated by the judges. During the panel, his actions were brought up. And Brent Goke was forced to do an investigation due to War Princess screaming. Get this! Big Fazeek was eliminated from the competition! "I'm sorry, I don't feel you even belong with the Playstation Family. Your game ends here". BUT! That was only because of the investigation. And it was absolutely not necessary to kick a person while they are down. However, there had to be someone walking home. And War Princess had to end up packing her bags. She was proud enough to get him out of the house. And now according to the next episode. It seems Mo Chocolate is getting teamed up on. But hey, this is a competition. You have to work as a team to get the best man down! But according to the preview, It's trivia. And Mo Chocolate is the one getting all the answers right. But after this next episode. The week after that will be the final game. This should be interesting. I just hope that the other girl should leave next. I forget her name. She has not stood out the most. But definately it's tied between Gaymer and Scooter. Mo? Ehhhhhhh. |
