Game Stars 2004

[Lee-yoshi]

ITV's doing their aparently Annual award show where by they give out Games Awards to winners of categories in which the public voted online via http://www.gamestars.co.uk

It's on tommorrow (Saturday April 17th) at 12:30. I'll record it, but if its anything like last year with comedians making lame jokes about games, and presenters talking about the categories as if they actually play games (Pfft, yer whatever, smells like Gamezville!) when really they wouldn't know the first thing about.... anything, then it doesn't deserve to come back next year! In fact i'll have a quick look at some of the guests...

...stars such as Jordan, Simon Pegg, Jennifer Ellison, John Fashanu, Gary Lucy and Coronation Street's Surrane Jones appear on the show to hand out the awards...

Coronation Street, JESUS CHRIST!!



- The best thing about last years show wasn't watching them give every award to GTA3...

"The winner of best Gamecube game is....GTA3! O yer!"

- The best thing about last years show wasn't listening to the award winners speeches...

Lame Comedian type Presenter Bloke: "Well done, what do you have to say"
Award Winner: "Well i just wanna say.."
Lame Comedian type Presenter Bloke: *Butts in* "Thanks a lot, well done again"
Award Winner: *Looks confused and angry*

- The best thing about last years show was infact...the adverts! Infact...i think they really were! I seem to remember some nice Nintendo Adverts which were quite nice. More gaming footage there then in the show!! XD




Well it might be worth watching, but don't get your hopes up! lol

Another boring show, withh nothing much changed from last years! Less gaming content, another 'Hunt for the UK's Best gamer' which isn't a hunt unless you knock at everyone's door (I certainly dont remember a phone call!), and is certainly not the UK's best gamer, and finally more cheesy jokes, with insults to computer game players, which is possibly the wrong direction to take? O well!
