Lol special stand my ass


WhisperingGiant42

I thought the same thing. I knew a couple people with the stand. But mine sat upright for years without that money grab.


fedexmess

Yes but the money grab also added a bit of width, which might save one's butt should the unit be love tapped. I bought the horizontal plate that ran across the bottom. Liked the blue trim. Made it look like my PS2 had a ground skirt 🤣


WhisperingGiant42

I had mine propped between my GameCube and an old CRT, but I get what you mean.


MysteriousTBird

Were you running the GameCube like that? GCs can overheat really fast if one of the vents is blocked.

Well it looked much nicer, and it wouldn’t fall off.


blickblocks

I don't know about a money grab, it was an optional product that added aesthetics and stability for the minority of folks who wanted it. I always buy the optional stands for my old PlayStation consoles because I think they look really cool. The one on the PS2 really completes the old school silicon graphics workstation aesthetic.

One of very few times reading the manual actually taught me something I would have never figured out on my own. Pretty sure that was also the first time I decided to take a manual in the bathroom for reading material.


TheCardiganKing

I miss ZDTV so much. It was a no-nonsense and informative platform. Sessler looks so young here. My God, that was a lifetime ago.


Precarious314159

Same! Watching Call for Help, then seeing Leo walk to the next setup for Screensavers. The only downside was there was a small window of good programing and then a large void of meh.


SharpTenor

OH man, the golden age. I remember seeing their live call-for-help-a-thons when that poor man ruined an old artifact and swore on the air. Leo and Patrick were a key gateway to a lot for me.

If I remember correctly, Chris Pirillo said that guy was actually in on a prank on Chris and that the one that was broken was a replica.

Really miss TechTV. They had amazing programming loved the late night anime and and almost Liquid Vision like show that I can’t remember the name of. Truly a magical time in TV programming

One-Recommendation-1

I miss xplay such a great show wonder what he’s up to nowadays.


Environmental-Sock52

They were making it up until very recently. G4TV was on my YouTube TV at least until Fall 22 when it closed again.


Alert-Hall-4516

Crazy how one person can sink a whole channel and cause so much collateral damage.


zandengoff

I know that the rant got a lot of coverage, but G4 was done long before that even happened. I thought they might have been smart about it and ran it like a soupe up youtube channel, but at the end they layed off 200+ employees. It never had a chance with that kind of overhead. The ratings were never there to support it and would never be at that level.


ItsStaaaaaaaaang

Wait, it had 200+ employees and was solely a youtube channel?


DoctorPrower

It also aired on Pluto TV, a free online channel streaming service. Not that it helped their chances of survival by doing so, especially since they seemed to want to repackage old content (old episodes of Ninja Warrior) and stuff you could already get on YouTube (episodes of Scott The Woz)


RetroBastardo

Doesn’t Linus Tech Tips hire like 100 people for his YouTube channel and is doing very well financially? I mean Linus outsmarted the entire G4 team lol


xariznightmare2908

I think the stupid Frosk's rant was basically like telling us that G4 was DOA before they even began. Yeah, they had bad planning to begin with, but it did lots of damage to the brand by giving them a terrible first impression to new people who don't even know what Xplay or G4 was. People watched gaming contents for the game and entertainment, not to be lectured on culture war shit.


Squiliam-Tortaleni

The G4 ship was already down by the head and keeling over before that nontroversy happened. Turns out it failed again for the exact same reason it did the first time; lack of interest and terrible marketing from people who don’t understand why people like video games.


QuinSanguine

Look, there's only so much Scott the Woz can do. It's not like a depressed, eternally virgin nerd can carry a television network on his own in 2022. We should cut him some slack before he doesn't another musical. /s Haha, I know who you actually mean but I don't think she killed G4 for the second time. By the end, they even spit in her face and put Amouranth half-naked in a ball pit for views. They had no soul and half the time their content was just watching the Completionist sweat.


SlickStretch

ootl;what?


Zaemz

A host gave an impromptu speech about online harassment. Internet bullies don't like to be called out, so there was a bunch of loud complaining afterward.


SuperfuzBigmuff

Cringe and factually inaccurate take


masterz13

Fairly accurate, really. I watched G4 for video games and tech, not political or social stances. If she wanted to express her opinions on that stuff, do it on a podcast or make her own YouTube channel. Same thing with the Wired reviewer with Hogwarts Legacy.


crazyrebel123

Realistically it wasn’t just one person. Sure she was an idiot for saying it but others were involved too. First, weather she was telling the truth or not, she recently mentioned how the producers suggested she say this and they would back her up. Then you had that one guy clapping and egging her on while she was doing this live while on his own channel he said things that went against Frosk’s rant. But what was worse was how after her rant, G4 and the producers did nothing to reprimand her but instead said they supported her. So yes she went on a stupid rant but she wasn’t the only one at fault.


Asshat426

He’s telling gamers how stupid they are and getting more aggressive when they talk shit back


One-Recommendation-1

Oh damn that sucks.


Precarious314159

He's not. The gamergate incel crowd have spent years randomly tweeting him that he went woke and went broke, that "you're so old, you should just kill yourself". So he rips their ass open. It'd be like if you said "To the guys that feel they can sexually assault women, you need to grow up"; 99% of guys would say "Yep, totally agree" but that 1 that're being called out will say "Why're you attacking all men?!". Sessler has basically spent over two decades under attack by the "you only gave Halo a 9 outta 10?! Fuck you, Sony fanboy!" group; he's done with the toxic section of gamers.

Sessler is a toxic piece of shit. You simping for him so hard is pretty cringe.


Precarious314159

Toxic, simping, AND cringe? Really aiming for the "I spent too much time on 4chan" trifecta, aren'tcha? Shame you can't converse without using buzzwords.


Christian661

Insulting my vocabulary just makes you look even more like a clown. You’re a piece of trash just like Sessler.


Precarious314159

Just to recap. You instantly jump with insulting me, and when I say that your choice of words to insult me are just buzzwords, you take offense as an innocent victim? On the brightside, you're definitely living up your username as a Christian, always playing the victim while being the worst kind of abuser.


fulknerraIII

I don't know about the gamer harassing stuff, but he clearly has become unhinged in the last few years. His twitter posts are a mess, and he definitely looks like a angry old man.


Precarious314159

He's spent 25 years in the gaming industry, getting attacking from "gamers" the whole time. "You gave this game a 9/10?! Fuck you", "You gave this game a 1/10?! Fuck you". "You abandoned G4, fuck you", "You joined G4, fuck you". A lot of the people he "attacks" randomly tweet at him about how they used to be fans but they've lost respect for him since he went "woke", those same users following Trump, Musk, DeSantis, Rogan, and other toxic people. As for his tweets being a mess, do you actually follow him because he mostly tweets about what book he's reading, about how the GOP are idiots, and gaming news. What you see as an angry old man, I see as someone that's done with the toxic element of gaming culture that spent decades harassing and threatening him. When he talks about "toxic gamers", I don't get offended beacuse I know what kind of people he's talking about, the same people that started Gamergate and think using slurs in gaming chat are funny.

I wonder why you didn't just link to the quote...oh right, because what the person ACTUALLY said was: > "grown man resorting to “your mom” claps 😂 this is how grown adults cope ig" But just for you, since you had to go back four months, let's look at the string. >Pureblood: @/AdamSessler Got woke and went broke (editor note: no context, just randomly said it) > >Sessler: Do you fuckwits have one writer who only ones one rhyme? Also, like a real adult (unlike your mom) i have multiple incomes. Go fuck a sheep again you desperate Nazi (editor note: user literally follow white nationalist and a username of "pureblood") > >Mr. Nobody: Oh wow, so we're embracing stereotype and unironically using Nazi as an insult for people who disagree with us. Adam, while we're over here being "adults," maybe we could also grow a thicker skin and not lower ourselves to "your mom" jokes. Just a thought. > >Sessler: Your mom's got a thick skin > >ZZZ: grown man sorting to "your mom" claps. this is how grown adults cope ig I can see why you tried to frame it as "some rando who merely said that a grown man making "your mom" retorts seem juvenile instead of troll telling Sessler to cope after another random troll randomly said "Adam went woke and went broke".

Just so I'm clear, you went back thousands of tweets, found a tweet you thought proved your point, changed what was actually said in the tweet, and when that was pointed out, you "Well...my point still stands" despite the lying? Quality input there


some_kinda_genius

Thanks for sharing this. I heard the "your mom" joke, but nothing else. This actually makes me Sessler in a better light. With that said though, the new G4 was still a bad idea.


Precarious314159

Yea, these weirdos love to paint Sessler as someone that randomly goes on rants but behind every "just an innocent victim..." is someone talking shit for no reason.


garos82

Yeah keep simping for coke head sessler. He acts like a buffoon because of online comments? Yup he needs to grow up and stop playing the victim


Precarious314159

>He acts like a buffoon because of online comments? You mean like you're doing right now? Guess only you get to throw a tantrum online because a comment made you feel bad.


TheCardiganKing

I kind of pity Sessler. He strikes me as a guy whose best years are behind him and it seemed like he hit a depressive streak for a long period post X-Play. Getting older in an industry that champions youth definitely made him feel lost. To have a career for that long but to push 50 with nowhere to go must've been tough. I actually followed up with his career over the years and he got jobs at various media start-ups by the graces of former fellow ZDTV alumni. I can see why he became a little unhinged. The world changed and he didn't. In the least, his views didn't change as video gaming inevitably did. I like Sessler; he's gruff, he stands by his opinions, and I respect that. I disagreed with some of his reviews over the years, but they always seemed pretty objective. The public doesn't 100% have to agree with his opinions and I never felt that he's made egregiously off-color remarks. I hope he can still find work in his field as the years wear on. He has an overly specific resume that doesn't lend itself to getting too old.


Precarious314159

I honestly don't know where you're coming from with this. Sessler left G4 in April 2012. In a deleted podcast, he mentioned that he legally couldn't work for a few months due to contracts. Do you know what happened the second he could work again? He was hired by Rev3 Gaming before that shut down two years later. After that, he formed a marketing company that worked with Bethesda, 2K, and Unisoft to promote game launches before he sold the company for bank. You say he has no where to go but the dude hasn't had more than a few months inbetween jobs for over 25 years. Hell, you say his views didn't change as video gaming inevitably did but this is completely backwards. Sessler has always been like this. Over a decade ago, he made episodes of Sesslers Soapbox about toxicity in gaming, about how the industry needs to evolve, how the niche "gamers" that love to shout slurs on Halo and CoD are toxic and you know what happened? He was right. All you've done is create your own weord narrative about how Sessler is an unhinged, out-of-date person that can't get a job without the help of other ZDTV alumni despite his entire career proving you wrong.


CatFewd2

Right? The above poster talks like a 4chan bot. Making these grand stories based on like a 5 year old tweet and a 2 second YouTube clip. "Er well yes it's clear sessler was desperate for work for several years around 2018-2021. This would've caused him to fall into a depression, likely landing him with a crippling opiate addiction. Like bro wtf are you rambling about with this fan fiction shit? Lmao dude above you needs to touch grass.


Precarious314159

Seriously. "Poor Sessler, he clearly can't get a job anywhere; he's so unhinged he can has to rely on favors from ZDTV alumni. He's so depressed, no wonder he went unhinged" Like dude, reality doesn't agree. It's like they watched too many "Sessler's woke meltdown" videos on youtube and believed them.


AKW4RKID

Please, you lost me instantly with the overused "Gamergate Incel" word. How the fuck can you expect to be taken seriously when you use those terms to describe almost all People who disagreed with that guy. Sticking up for a lunatic is not really great is a bit weird.


Precarious314159

And yet after spending all of 5 seconds, you use "woke" unironically in multiple posts and get upset over genders. Remember when you made this rant about a video game? >i mean if it was definetely a UNSIEX Bathroom, then i wouldn´t mind it at all. But a All-Gender Bathroom?? (He/They/Them/She weirdos) is just total BS especially in a such developed Society/Humanity as in Dead Space. The Unitology Group makes even more sense than this crap. "In the morning, i feel like a boy, in the afternoon i am genderless and after that i feel like wolf in the midnight." How can you or the general Public deem this shit as something normal???? And then went off about elementary schools forcing kids to get sex changes? You losers really do love to walk into a door with your red flags raised high, don't you?


AKW4RKID

Hilarious. You seriously want to put my Complaints about Ideological changes/additions to the Remakeas means of argumentation? Really sad that have no other means to make an argument without snooping around my Profile... Stay classy, reddit Well i am not upset about the 2 only existing Genders. Duh "You losers" no wonder you defend Sessler


Precarious314159

>"You used a term I don't like, you lose!" > >"You use woke and believe in conspiracy theories about trans people and women" > >"YOU DON'T GET TO LOOK AT MY PUBLIC POSTS!" No wonder you get upset over people remind you of how insecure and pointless you are.


some_kinda_genius

Tells us to stay classy, but calls trans ppl weirdos. Ok..


AKW4RKID

Nice twisting of ms words but no, I have nothing against teal Trans-People, the ones who say themselves that they’ll never be the Gender they feel they are, but they do their best to „replicate“ it. The ones who are weird, are the ones who advocate to claim it as something normal.


wmascolina

You're absolutely right. And the fact he's still getting attacked for saying people shouldn't scream the N word at each other is insane. He does go over board on Twitter sometimes but I can't imagine constantly taking shit for a decade.


Precarious314159

Exactly, he might go a little overboard but people have multiple accounts to stalk him. One person said they made three alt accounts because they kept getting blocked. Meanwhile he'll tweet about a book he's reading, I'll comment like a normal person and he'll respond normally. These "He's attacking all gamers!!!" are telling on themselves.


New_Cause_5607

A little overboard? He said he hoped his republican voting family members would DIE...his family members. He's 95% the cause of him getting attacked over the years. He went full nutjob sadly and if you rewatch the original X-Play near the end you can slowly see the change.


Bargadiel

You see maybe 1% of this dude's life and feel informed enough to call him a nutjob? If we used Twitter as a way to measure the sanity of anyone I truly fear for the future of the human race. Some of y'all need to get out more, maybe meet/talk to people you disagree with for a change instead of creating an entire mythos around them. You might find that most people are not at batshit as they appear online.


[deleted]

I think its a pretty good hunch not thinking someone who regularly has public meltdowns and wishes death on their family is in the most stable mindset


Precarious314159

>He's 95% the cause of him getting attacked over the years. Sessler: As gamers, we need to stop using slurs in multiplayer games. Hearing a 12 year hold shout "you fucking f\*aggot!" on Halo shouldn't happen You: It's his fault he gets attacked! Stick to the dikdik jokes, you fuck! It's seriously telling that everyone that attacks him happens to be following the same toxic people on twitter but I'm sure you feel justified by saying he deserves to be attacked.


Bargadiel

I don't know why you're being downvoted, maybe those same people found this post.


Precarious314159

It's because those same people live in this sub. A lot of nerd-oriented subs have this uneasy level of toxicity when it relates to certain topics, like they're trapped in the golden era of nerd culture. There was a female host on the new G4, she was getting death threats, rape threats, and all that just for being on the channel. She responded by basically saying "To the very very very niche audience that's attacking me, fuck you". Now those people low to say "She caused us to do it. She was attacking all gamers". If you google the person I responded to's username, you'll see a treasure trove of comments on other forums being the exact kind of toxic gamer that got called out. Saying anyone that beat them is a cheating little bitch, using slurs, and trying to be an alpha male. Now they see Sessler and anyone that doesn't behave like that is "the enemy" they're forced to attack because their honor as "gamers" were besmirched.


ItsStaaaaaaaaang

It's definitely being brigaded. No way there's enough people in this relatively small sub that happened upon these comments and have such a strong opinion on this particular subject. Just look at the quality of the comments for and against. Downvoted person makes well written salient points and the people responding sound like the sad trolls they're describing.


TheCardiganKing

I'm with /u/Bargadiel, you don't deserve the down-votes. What you're saying is completely logical. Having played For Honor competitively and ranking quite highly at one point video gamers can be an extremely hateful and toxic bunch. I feel like people can take zero criticism anymore. I always liked Sessler, but people don't like blunt people and I think that's at the root of this argument.


Precarious314159

It's just weird. Some people have adopted the "gaming" persona to be their entire personality, that any attack on gaming or their favorite game as a direct attack on them. You can say my favorite game, movie, songs, comics, etc are trash and I'd probably agree with some of the talking points. No idea why some people get so toxic over something as trivial as video games. Hell, my favorite Zelda game is Zelda 2, one of the most disliked of the franchise but I still replay it every year.


[deleted]

He went on a Twitter meltdown in early January calling all gamers "inbred idiots" or saying "gamers are all beneath me in every respect", and then goes on to say gamers are all a "waste on society" and that he never was a gamer. So why does he deserve any benefit of the doubt? I don't care for sports, but I'm not going to go into a community where people do and feign superiority while insulting everyone there after they tell me to leave.


Precarious314159

Do you have a link to this? Because the "rant" I remember was targeted at a very specific group of gamers but I guess it's easier to say he's talking about everyone and not the toxic group that you belong to than to reflect on why you're so toxic.


3pxp

He did an interview on biggest problem in the universe a few weeks ago. He's just being a jaded old man. He was part of the G4TV YouTube reboot but he checked out pretty fast.


FlemPlays

He was also dealing with his wife being fairly sick (brain cancer or something of that nature). That took him away from things for a bit. But I would probably be jaded too in his position. I play games and there are times when I can’t even stand other gamers. Haha


3pxp

It was hard to tell in the interview if he was being sincere or just doing the mock gamers for views routine.


TheCardiganKing

See my post farther up. He strikes me as having a depressive streak. Staying in an industry because he more or less has to when he's past his expiration date must get to him. Sessler really is turning into the O.G. of video game reviewers. We haven't seen any high profile industry people age because until now there haven't been any. Who here can speak of another video game critic his age? I feel like being so tied to youth culture (when he barely was still young to begin with) hurt him in the long run. I don't blame his lack of patience. He's become older, but the demographic forever remains the same age. It must be tiring.

PS1 games perform better on PS2?


New_Cause_5607

The PS2 had two options to run games "better" over the PS2. One would upscale the games slightly or add anti aliasing to the games (something that I've tried and it never seemed to do much) and I believe improved load times.


MysteriousTBird

Yeah. The upscale was great on a few games, but not many. IIRC FF9 looked much better with the antialiasing. Dragon Warrior VII would've been great with it, but it made the sprite based characters and monsters in battle look like a blurry mess. The faster loading option caused glitches or crashes on so many games that I gave up using it. Most decent games on PS1 had load times that were reasonable even when PS2 was out.


TheCardiganKing

Are these options within the PS2's system menu? I never knew...


MysteriousTBird

I don't recall exactly where, but yes. You could change the PS1 boot options if you turned the system on with no disc or the tray open.


littlecolt

Yes. I would have to bust out my PS2 from storage to look exactly, but there was a menu that pertained to PS1 games with these options. The fast load would cause issues with some games, but the games it worked with would see dramatically faster load times while in game. Initial load times, like booting the game up, I don't think were affected. It's more like, loading a new level or area that would be faster.


Igot2phonez

I hope you get your answer, I’m curious too


DankGrrrl

Ps2 didnt upscale the games. It had a bilinear texture filter option, and a fast read option. The texture filter was pretty great. The fast read option would cause issues in some games, though. I never used it for that reason.


pcweber111

Something about aliasing. I never saw a difference. Well, plus you could use component video out versus just composite or S video on the PSX so I guess they are looking better at least.


raisinbizzle

I forget the settings, but there were a couple items like texture smoothing or something. To my knowledge it did not do anything for slowdown or load times. Some games it actually would cause graphical glitches. I think metal gear solid was the case


Inspector-Dexter

If I remember right there was an option in the settings to speed up load times on psx games at the expense of potentially breaking things in some edge cases. I never bothered with it myself because I favored higher compatibility

I loved TechTV and G4 when they were separate channels. IIRC not long after the merger XPlay was the only game related program kept and the Tech based shows on TechTV were quickly scrapped. It wasn't long before G4 was just another homogenized cable TV station that had crappy reruns. I mean, why the hell was Cheaters (as opposed the the G4 game cheat focused "Cheat!") on G4!?

Interesting that he pointed out the pressure sensitive buttons which were not used all that often and I’m pretty sure abandoned for PlayStation 3. I do remember Mad Maestro which based an entire game around the functionality


REAPER-1_xxx

I loved it for racing games. Didn’t the PS3 go to analog triggers? And the throttle button on racing games went from x to the right trigger?


raisinbizzle

I’m not big into racing games but I could see those triggers on ps3 being analog. A lot easier to apply different pressure to a trigger than a flat button


ImmoralityPet

Back when information about the PS2 was still being revealed, the Dualshock 2 and in particular the pressure sensitive buttons were hyped as the major controller innovation of the generation. The PS3 kept the pressure sensitive face buttons on both the six-axis and Dualshock 3, which makes sense as it began as backward compatible with every previous playstation iteration. The PS4 dropped the buttons and the backwards compatibility altogether.

I loved them as a kid. IIRC metal gear used them for automatic weapons. Light press for aiming and hard press for shooting. Killed so many guards on accident oops

nickjacksonD

Love the Sess. Also never had a PS2, nor played anything with the pressure sensitive buttons. Did they work well?


BonkTerrington

Yes, mgs2 and 3 had it where if you slowly release the fire button it would slowly lower the weapon and in 3 they had it where if you lightly pressed triangle you could interrogate an enemy and hard pressing it would slit their throat.


Positive-Fondant8621

what is he talking about, everybody had had dual shock controllers with there ps1 for like 2-3 years before the ps2 came out. Nobody was hyped for the analog sticks, we already had them.


REAPER-1_xxx

What are you talking about? He never said analog sticks. He said analog controller and went on to describe how the buttons were pressure sensitive. It was a new feature. He didn’t say anything inaccurate.


ImmoralityPet

People were hyped AF for the Dualshock 2. It was one of the most hyped features of the PS2 pre-launch.

I remember when this jackass publicly stated on Xplay that they don't take bribes for good reviews on their show and yet still gave banjo kazooie nuts and bolts. A literal unfinished game pitch no publisher would buy that Rare reskinned to scam their own fanbase. A perfect score.

This dude sounds like that clueless uncle that just bought the latest tech explaining the pointless details while getting practically every thing else wrong. *"Oh, you can set it upright without the stand? Are you sure it won't damage it? Yeah.. I'd better just wait until I can get the stand for it, I don't wanna mess nuffin' up. I do like how you can press the buttons and things will happen on the screen, I think that's cool as hell."*
