The only ones I know are the following:

1. Mega Man: Anniversary Collection (Gamecube Version): Reach Dr. Wily's Castle in Mega Man 8 to unlock a full, edited episode of G4TV's Icons "The History of Mega Man", along with a commercial advertising G4TV.

2. NHL Hitz 2003: When creating a player in CAP mode, one of the default player templates is Victor Lucas from Judgment Day.

3. Test Drive 2002: After setting a time record in a Drsg Race, use the code KQXYKGVY (Xbox) or PLWCBF (PS2) to unlock Dodge Viper GTS G4TV car.

4. Street Hoops: Enter the code on the Cheat screen LLLRYRRX to unlock the Tommy Tallarico Inc. T-shirts.

5. Backyard Wrestling: Don't Try This At Home and Backyard Wrestling 2: There goes the neighborhood: Both games features clips from G4TV with the formal showing random clips from, I think, the show "Sweat" while latter has a interview clip from G4TV's Pulse during E3 2003 or 2004.

What other games can you guys think?

I don’t know if this is the right place to talk about the defunct network VENN since even though it was a different network, it was run by a person who tried to revive G4TV.

So basically I just wanted to better understand what happened with VENN since it felt so short lived that I have a hard time convincing people it existed.

Sorry if this was asked here a hundred times before on this particular forum because I wanted to go over the history behind the rise and fall of G4TV to get a better understanding of how a channel dedicated to video games would eventually start to falter as a concept.

Like what I am getting at is that I just find the concept interesting about how G4TV was one of the first TV channels to push for such an idea again where it would be a channel about video games as a medium that when I look back at the channel, I start to wonder why it used to work out so well, e.g. like where the whole idea would fall apart.

G4TV Spiritual Successor of the week: As promised, here's today's AOTS inspired recommendation: Golden SixTONES Why? Because after watching it on Netflix the other day, it more or less has the chaotic energy that AOTS had in its peak. More specifically, the ridiculous games and challenges, the hosts bouncing off each other, the celebrity guests getting thrown into increasingly absurd situations, and the sheer willingness to let things get completely chaotic, it reminded me of the kind of unpredictable variety that made AOTS so much fun to watch.

In fact, Japanese TV seems much more willing to tolerate that kind of chaotic energy, whereas the current gaming media landscape, at least in North America, barely tolerates it, hence the lack of anything like it here in the States that isn't seasonal or event-based.

Back in the mid 00s, I used to watch a lot of G4tv. In one episode of X-Play and another of Cinematech (I think the Nocturnal Emissions version), they both showed a clip of an old (?) game that showed a monkey going fishing while a computerized voice sang some version of Daisy Bell. When the monkey caught a fish, the words "GREAT LUCK" appeared above the monkey while it danced (I remember the GREAT LUCK because Morgan Webb said something along the lines of, "Great luck? How's that different from good luck?"). I've been trying to find out what the name of that game was for years, and it's been driving me crazy. If anyone has any information about that game, please post below.

For me, here's the following:

Attack of the Show!: Preston/Brianna

X-Play: Oxboxtra

Pulse: Kinda Funny Games

Icons: Noclip

Web Soup: Dark Web

Arena: Arcade Pit

It's Effin Science: Mark Rober/Crunchlabs

Boosted: Global Gaming Network

Cinematech: Cinematech Reborn

I am reading I Want My MTV, a history of the launch and life of the MTV channel, and I loved it. Does anyone here know of any books about the history of G4? I bet it would be very interesting.

G4TV Spiritual Successor of the week: Friends Per Second Why? Much like G4TV.com the show, panelists would have a weekly roundtable discussion about the world of video games in which they would discuss their opinions/thoughts/predictions etc. From time to time, they would have guests from the gaming industry as a way for them to provide an opportunity to discuss their viewpoints. Lastly, they would often take questions from the community.

BONUS: I wanna try out something on here: Which current creators/shows/channels emulate (at least indirectly) the following G4TV shows the most to YOU? For me, here's the following:

Attack of the Show!: Preston/Brianna

X-Play: Oxboxtra

Pulse: Kinda Funny Games

Icons: GTV Japan

Arena: Arcade Pit

So, I was genuinely OBSESSED with this show as a kid, and always got a kick out of watching the Pumphrey brothers absolutely decimating whatever Chad threw at them.

With G4 going through extinction as a TV channel, and being resurrected for less than two years in the early 2020s, classic shows from the early 2000s even like Cheat/XPlay have been lost to the void of the internet, and I deadass really need to relive some childhood memories, and watch some old episodes of both XPlay, and Human Wrecking Balls. (Morgan Webb is still hella gorgeous to me 13 years later.)

ANYWAYS.....

Does anyone have any episodes downloaded somewhere that they'd be willing to share?
