I remember Xfire. It was awesome, although I watched it when I was about 7. I wouldn’t mind playing this game, just to see how well I could fare.

Just gotta say this. It’s this kind of crap that’s going to ruin the Sci-Fi channel. First they cancel stargate SG1, then they cancel Stargate Atlantis and make a new stargate called Stargate Galaxy i think it is, that starts up in january 2009.. They’ve been ditching good shows for a while now, and making crappy TV movies that no one cares about (except the stargate dvd movies, keep that up).

Science fiction was in a bad place as it was before Sci-Fi decided they were going to make lousy reality shows. What the hell is scifi about this rubbish anyways? Reality show… That would be the exact oposite of fiction i would believe.. And the science behind these reality shows are usually based around reverse darwinism. The weak reign supreme in these damn shows.

Yeah.. off_Rant

Not nessarcarily a “video-game” show, but when I saw a link to that X-fire vid, I though I should give combat missions a mention.
The best part is the fact that it’s actual special forces competing.

Maybe they forgot about Knightmare, but just a couple of days ago I watched a live-action version of FIFA so it’s not like people haven’t taken the idea and run with it.
That was pretty stupid too though, it went on way longer than it’s supposed to and when one team was ahead they didn’t do the traditional back pass to the keeper to have him try and dribble the ball into the opponents’ goal.

From the article, it looks like televised LARP.

Isn’t this, essentially, a game of tig. On television.

Majestic wasn’t like this at all. Not even a little.

They tried this before, for real, with a game called Majestic. And, you kow, that worked…

Night Tra–

[a wall gradually, gradually revolves behind James (who is having a pillowfight with his monitor), revealing a dry-ice-filled recess from whence emerges a man with a black stocking over his head; he unconvincingly attacks James with a drill, and tabloid TV programs are whirled into a totally non-confected frenzy.]
