Cybernet is shown late night or early morning rather on ITV, I've watched it for a long time now and try to watch each week. Over the last few episodes I've noticed the same bits I've seen before, same xbox guy blabbing about specs, same web sites, same GT3 review, same cheats.

I think they should scrap the web sites and concentrate on the games but has anyone else noticed it's just old episodes patched differently??

Cybernet is very dissapointing for a few key reasons.

1-Its on so late. I think loads of people would watch it if it was on in the afternoon or evening.

2-The lady voice person usually doesn't know what she's on about. You can tell she's just reading cards or something.

3-It has some really crap educational games on it. I mean, I stay up untill 2am in the moring and the feature review is Arthers interactive camping trip. I would like to see real games please.

The only good thing about it is the fact that you get to see footage of the games. Often looking much more impressive than the screenshots in magazines. I also notice that Cybernet and Movies, games and videos show the same footage.

Bits was also a bit crap but the only reason I watched it was because I was on late at night on Fridays and I don't have to get up in the morning.

Why won't some TV company show a real games show at around 8 o'clock. Gaming is immensley popular and it would recieve great ratings regardles if it was crap. But that will sadly never happen because people still view games as being anti-social. I ask, there are gardening programmes, why can't there be a decent games programmme?

Yeah, that's what I thought when I saw the PS2 review of Freak Out yesterday.

I have better ways to get information, like from proper games journos who know what they're talking about.
