X-Play

No, this is not a reference to a sexual fetish for X-boxes. Instead it is a critique of the new Tech TV show, X-Play. This show replaces Extended Play, which was Tech TV's last video game show.

Essentially, this is a more annoying version of the original. They still have a whole bunch of reviews crammed into 30 minutes, but they have added Morgan Webb as a host and a lot bunch of schlocky nonesense. Adam Sessler is now zanier and there are a lot of dumb jokes between reviews. They just did a segment where Adam had to enter cheat codes in his "real life" to help him get ladies. It was painful. On top of this all, the graphics are worse and they have the horrible black and white, behind the scenes, secondary camera. This may be the most annoying thing you could possibly do. Also, I like Morgan, but there is no need for her.

This is clearly the same exact show geared towards a younger audience. Overall, pretty dumb if you ask me.*

*Despite the dumbness, I will still TiVo this to watch the reviews. I'll just skip through the crappy parts.
