Any plan to merge the two at a future point? Better sooner than later, I would imagine.

Clearly I'll take on some downvotes for this one, but I was not a fan of Game On. That's probably because I went in with the expectation of a roundtable discussion as with the other shows, and it was anything but. The target demographic felt a lot younger. Brian, who normally is a very intelligent guy, felt overly-scripted and like he was dumbing himself down just to be wacky or zany. Veronica I'm not familiar with, but she also felt overly scripted. The segues were loud and... kind of gross.

I guess my point is, it felt to me like the the show was treating me like a teenager. Another G4, if you will. I was looking for more intelligent discourse mixed with recent gaming news and interviews, and that's not what I got.

So anyway, I just wanted to share my experience. That may be of some interest to you, though I do not know if I'm in the majority in that respect.

Thank you for all the great work you do, I watch TwiT and TwiG religiously, and often Security Now and Triangulation. I've been meaning to watch the new show with the priest fellow though every time I check iTunes it's not listed, perhaps it is by now.

Thanks again Leo, and apologies if I seemed too critical on Game On.

Honestly, I'd appreciate if you could expand on that. It's free, unobtrusive, and has low false positives. That makes it great for geeks to install on relatives computers.

If the detection rate is low, could you provide a source or at least anecdotes? It would have more value coming from somebody with experience in the field.

I hope not much. I'd much rather see delicious progress than a stupid controversy from people calling it "playing god".

What the hell? This is the second time I've found this comment now.
