I've been watching a bit of Madden Nation on ESPN2 and Training Camp on G4.  Anyone else catching these?  I'm a bit surprised by the age of some of the Madden Nation guys - I swear some of them are over 30!  And, another surpise is that some of the gamers on Training Camp are decent athletes. 

Like Streetball, both shows are entertaining diversion when winding down late at night...

It's either Tues. or Wed. night at 11:00 or 11:30.  I catch while channel-surfing late at night, so I'm not positive.  I am pretty sure it's on ESPN2, though.

Last night was the last G4tv show.  I was probably the only 30 plus viewer who actually watched the show.  Honestly, I didn't think it was too bad of a show, but there was some definite Sony bias going on.

So, what's the premise of Madden Nation and Training Camp?

The show I enjoy watching the most is Electronic Playground.  Generally, you get a good 4 games that have recently released along with 2 or 3 games yet to be released.  Just last week, I saw a preview of Jaws that looks interesting.  Not necessarily my type of game, but different which is good.  Plus, you get to hear interviews by the developers. 

Judgement Day isn't bad either.  I don't generally agree with the hosts impressions, but at least it's a bit more serious than XPlay.  That show is atrocious.  I guess it's all about the demographic audience though.
