The merger of TechTV and G4 is, perhaps, the worst merger in geek history. TechTV treated our love of all that is
computers and gaming with reverance. They acknowledged that we're not quite mainstream, and they were charming because
of it. Enter the villainous G4, with its flashy sets and fake smiles. Now we're stuck with a mediocre channel that
isn't even available in my area anymore. Having said that, the channel is still a force to be reckoned with. Their
awards show has pulled in biggish names like Carmen Elektra, and seems to have fanboys excited for its August 6th air
date. The winners have already been announced and include:
Best Racing Game, Need for Speed Underground
Hottest Character, Rikku from Final Fantasy X-2
Favorite Character, Ryu Hayabusa of Ninja Gaiden
Game of the Year, well, click on the link (hint: it's very uncreative)
