Can there ever be a reasonably good games TV show. All those years ago I used to watch Games master but even that wasn't perfect. Then they went to a magazine format (which was terrible). Then we get rubbish like Bits on channel 4. I've just thought about this topic after watching Big Breakfast. Some guy called Ali was looking at Football games and you could tell he knew nothing about games. And whats worse, people will take his advice. My friend was at the bus stop and I was talking about that Ali guy and he said, 'well it's got good graphics so it must be better than the others'. WTF!!! I've been writing this quickly so its not as clear as i'd like but you get the idea.
I doubt it will ever happen. The media still rates up as a minority of kids, and until that changes, we will be treated that way by them.
