“GAMEFACE” HAS MADE IT TO EPISODE 5 WITHOUT ANYONE NOTICING
Don’t get Bravo any more. As in, don’t receive the transmission. Which is probably for the best, otherwise this poor lady would be getting a much more thorough debriefing right now.
She’s the vaguely acceptable face of “Gameface” – a new (SEASON 1, EPISODE 5) TV show about games. Incredibly, she uses the term “veritable platter” in her opening piece to camera, setting back games reporting by over a decade.
They should’ve used Emily Booth. Everyone should use Emily Booth. We would like to use Emily Booth, as has been well documented. We would, as Annie Lennox once put it, also like to get used by Emily Booth. Used as a toilet.

It’s really bad. One week they reviewed Tiger Woods and two brown-flavoured racing games and that was ALL. Three games! Three shitty sports games! The rest was that bint wittering to the spotty no-marks who had phoned in.

I think the Bouff has been used enough already, going by the last time I saw her anyway.
Stupid question I know, but I’ve seen this gameface thing available for download (It was “to rent” apparently, or summat similar) and ignored it as it appeared to have neither Dominik Diamond, Iaiiaiain Lee, Violet Berlin, any of the Bits ‘girls’ or even Andy “Big in Manchester” Crane. Let alone Patrick Moore.
Worth the bandwidth? (although I think I know the answer already)

Phone-ins? Wow! It’s the future of games programming!
Did they have a tips section too?

I’d sort of noticed… but the presenter was so fucking ugly and the programme such absolute shit I tried really hard not to remember.

I’ve not tried being used as a toilet yet. Apparently you have to make sure they haven’t eaten too much meat otherwise the shit tastes nasty and extra sugar in the diet makes it taste sweet.

Used as a toilet.
Stay classy, UK:R.

Heh.
They have a website.
And on it they say they want people to register so they can ring you up while on air.
http://gameface.bravo.co.uk/register.php
And then they say “it’ll make both of us look a bit silly if we don’t have your real details”
I disagree, it’ll be just them who look silly.
Who’s up for registering as many fake names and addresses as possible?

That last comment made me slightly nauseous.
Glad I updated my rss reader for this post alone!

“Did they have a tips section too?”
That would complete the package. I look forward to the arrival of the Face Master, a hooded tips cyborg, in episode 6-

It just occurred to me – is everyone aware that Emily Booth appears in the Quentin Tarrantion and Robert Rodriguez collaboration Grindhouse?
If not then watch it because, she’s like in it and everything.

She’s also been in cradle of filth videos but that’s no reason to go and watch them

I was not aware of this as I boycott anything made more recently than 1998.

“Love and sore thumbs”…why would I have sore thumbs? Is this some kind of thumbs-up-arses thing?
Not my cup of tea.
…ah, sore thumbs from joypads…I see…nope, got big callouses on them.
Which would probably be quite pleasant in the arse of the fugly presenter…or in Emily Booth, whichever is up for it.

Their opening spiel, on the website, starts with “Hi Guys!” – which means that I hear everything in a Cliff Richard voice, and ends with “the Gameface Gang” which instantly makes me think of Melvin Hayes and the “Double-Deckers” kids.
Still, much better than “Gameface Crew/Krew/Kru” which would’ve made me smash in my high colour depth monitor.

Want to know why Bravo dumped PlayR for this shit?
It’s because GINX give them the show for free! Yup, Bravo don’t spend a single penny on this crap.
GINX have been trying to peddle their shite they call gaming TV shows onto channels for years, luckily noone has been stupid enough up until now.
But the company is run by a bunch of morons who have no concept of gaming, often spouting noobish mistakes like calling the 360 the Xbox three Hundred and Sixty, and doing a retrospective on the history of pirates in games for a Sid Meier’s Pirates game and totally omissing any Monkey Island games and putting in “FOX’s Peter Pan and the Pirates” for the NES instead (a game that only came out in the US).
They also want to create “virtual reality video game theme parks” and for their world-wide content of gaming, their number 1 target country is Israel!!!! Not America, Not Japan, No the UK, Israel!
So as long as retards like this keep pummelling their shit onto television, we have no chance of EVER seeing a decent show. EVER.

Oh and Violet Berlin > Boof.
Booth actually knows very little about video games. Trust me on this I used to work for the same company as her.

Anyone know where can I download/watch an episode of gameface? I’m interested in judging for myself whether it is rubbish or not…
Thanks!
