worst videogame tv show. most definitely StarCade or Arena on G4. who cares about watching people play games like they were sports or something.

on StarCade, the host (you can tell) knows absolutely nothing about videogames. he reads off of cards for petes sake! on top of that, the weirdest people you ever thought imaginable go on the show. (starcade is an 80s arcade show, fyi)

in Arena, there is this huge all-american dude that is overly excited about seeing polygons get destroyed on a screen. and there is some british guy that looks like a weasel with glasses and makes the corniest jokes you ever heard. besides the hosts, the show is pointless. they play mechwarrior 4, unreal tournament 2003 and play capture the flag. some of the players 'really' suck. it must be cool to be there and play, but, imo, who cares about watching it?

enough about that.

cinematech and judgement day on G4 are definitely two shows worth watching.

edit: if a show about a certain game qualifies for this thread, Donkey Kong Country was the worst videogame show series ever.
