Those of you who watch RI:SE on Channel 4 may of seen Iain Lee (The gangly male presenter) make some comments on some video games he was reviewing. After doing "Project Gotham racing 2" and "T.H.U.G." he came round to "Viewtiful Joe" and had this to say:

"I haven't played this one yet, but judging by the cover, it looks bad."

What an Idiot!

This is all Nintendo needs, bad publicity on one of its most under rated games on it's 'Cube.

You Views.

Thumb Bandits was good but it was on too late.

I was warching a 10 year old episode of Gamesmaster yesterday (on Challenge TV)and was remembering how good it was.(Not ten years ago though, it sucked back then but not as much as Gamezville does)
Channel 4 should re-commision it or make a new games programme.

Gamepad's pretty good but the presenter's annoying!

A good games programme would get a lot of viewers, seeing as how the VG industry is one of the biggest at the moment

I love watching RI:SE, it's like watching a real life "Knowing Me Knowing You with Alan Partridge". The show is utterly doomed, the presenters are terrible - Iain Lee can be funny but not in a nice way, and that ugly bint from Big Brother just bickers with everyone, mostly about football.

His favourite online game was Twisted Metal Black, so he's a bit weird. It does show how little he knows when he's supposed to be 'hardcore' though.

He should know better. Thumb Bandits - the only half-decent games show. Which ended up cancelled like all the others.

Yeah, no harm done. More people read charts then watch RISE.

And I thought it was scrapped?
