Charlie Brooker’s Gameswipe was on TV. It was kinda cool. If you’re in the UK you can watch the full thing on iPlayer. If you’re not then some naughty boyz uploaded it to youtube!
Watch it all.

Brooker is awesome.
Nice touhou at 07:50 in the first part.

I liked this a lot. Thanks for posting it. It reminded me of Zero Punctuation, but then any brit complaining about video games probably would.
Oh and the part about getting the promoter off to play Sabotage had me rolling.
Loved it!
Hey Garry, few posts ago you mention that you were about to make a post about how much Gmod sold due to the 5$ sale, any chance you’re still going to make that post?
It’s good stuff. I e-mailed BBC America and told them to put it on BBC America as well, I doubt they will, but whatever. :/
hahaha, this is sweet
M-air-eo?
The best bit was definitely when they were defining the genres, such as the shoot-em-up handpuppets.
Thanks Garry! That was a nice watch!
Too bad they didn’t mention Garry’s Mod in the sandbox bit :(
I think it’s good how they talk about how violence can be bad if it’s really like, bad.
The violence isn’t BAD, it’s just when children play it it’s bad for them, and when it’s the only thing the media takes note of, that’s bad as well. 50 Cent blood on the sand is a perfectly enjoyable game, you just need a sense of humor about it.
I now think I’m in the mood for some cutting edge technology.
…Watched one half… kind of annoyed me.
love the 50 cent bit.
:O That intro theme is not theirs!
You called me a naughty boy! I’m sure Mr Brooker wouldn’t mind. Thanks for posting this- lots of views.
DONT YOU!? I’m a dinosaur.. you WUSS!. w00000.
Haha that had me laughing for a minute there :)
Thanks Garry, this was a good watch.
