    Hopefully its better than the game-network that was around before it. That very quickly descended into being the sh1te-text-competitions/psychics/dating/bolloxology/softporn-network.

    I bet they'll schedule in the 'classic' GamesVille episode hour - on the hour, every hour from 12 - 6 am.

    Only watched a bit but seems interesting, better than the other game channel that used to be on Sky (which seemed to be looped footage of games that weren't recent anymore).

    Suffers the same awful quality though (both video and sound) as a lot of these type of Sky channel.

    Only for those with Sky or FTA satellite boxes, with dishes aimed at Astra 2/Eurobird constellation.

    Impressive, Snake. Not too shabby at all, it's isn't too cringeworthy (only when they interview the not-so-articulate gamers.)

    They had some fine wan on tonight who actually had done some research and had an idea of what she was talking about it. She feigned enthusiasm as well which I like. I've seen her on some other show before. Tres hittable.
