The "Ebert and Roeper" of game review shows
nwobhmeternal8 October 2007
Judgment Day was a far superior game review show to X-Play. I can't believe this show has gotten the boot, while the vastly-inferior X-Play remains on the air.

Judgment day gives you TWO perspectives on each product reviewed, whereas X-Play usually just gives you a single, narrow-minded perspective. It's great to see more than one point of view at work. It works for movie reviews, and it works for game reviews too.

In addition, this show does NOT have the filler segments that ruined X-Play. Nor does it have an incompetent co-host like Morgan Webb. These two guys LOVE all genres of games and it shows.

Perhaps one of my favorite things about this show is that in addition to games, accessories also get reviewed, and branded with a recommended/not recommended tag. Thinking about a particular controller/game accessory? This show will let you know if you should get it or pass.

Overall a great show, and definitely better than the horrid mess that is X-Play.

PASSION!
WrathChld21 August 2003
I have always enjoyed playing video games, but haven't been the owner of a game machine (other than a PC) since I was in grammar school. I have been out of college for a few years, so it has been a while. One of my friends has X-Box and PS2. He plays SOCOM with the online connection religiously. While hanging out watching the game (pro-sports) he tends to flick to the game channel (G4) while the commercial is on. Until I saw him put the channel on I didn't know I had it. I wasn't much into watching a game channel, until recently when I finally bought a Game Cube.

So one day I stumbled across, "Judgment Day." I liked what I saw. When you watch and listen to people who have such a passion for what they are talking about, it is GREAT to observe. They give allot of insight into the games that are out there and the PROS Vs CONS. For myself (not being an expert on games) I like to hear their 2 cents to figure out if I might like a game. I like watching their show. Very cool. So if you have a half an hour to check this show out, do so. It has two guys who bring a collective knowledge to games. From what I read Tommy seems to have worked on games and that's where allot of his insight comes from. Victor seems to have a vast knowledge and love for games, which adds to the reviews. I couldn't say how helpful their reviews are because I haven't played a game based on that yet. I do know one thing. I am not a big fan of watching a channel strictly about games, but this is one show I can take an interest in.

GOTTA HAVE MORE!!! Another show from the deadly duo!
Ryuga23 November 2003
I'm telling you...this is one of my favorite shows ever now. I got G4 in April 3 days after my birthday. I watched it all day and stumbled upon Judgment Day. I liked it after awhile. How they talked and everything.

Tommy and Vic are like the Jedi Force...Tommy is the dark side and Vic is the light side. [got that from someone not myself] Because Tommy points out the faults and Victor tells the good stuff. Together they make a great a show. Their chemistry is so tight. They were made for each other..It's adorable!!

In short...if you love video games and you have G4, check this out!!!

One Great Show
joegee5512 July 2003
Judgment Day combines funny guys and Video games, things you don't see very often. I really recommend this show if you like to see humor mixed with Video game. I really look forward to seeing Tommy and Vic's performances every week, (mostly Tommy's) and to see some of my favorite games get reviewed, I give it a 9.5

This show is awesome!
guitardude1029319 November 2003
I think that this show is extremely fun to watch. I got G4 in August, 2003, and I never really watched it until I found this show, and now it's one of my favorite shows on TV. I am always entertained by critics, and this show provides just that. The best part is listening to all the bad parts of the games. That's one of the main reasons I watch. Always entertaining, even if it's a rerun.

It doesn't get ANY BETTER than Judgment Day
donfubar15 July 2003
Reviews on all the hottest games to come out, with probably the BEST hosting team since Regis and Kathy Lee, it really doesn't get any better than this show!

If I was stuck on an Island and only had one show I could watch, Judgment Day would be that show!

A good review show, but lacking depth (TV show)
patrick_dunne26 January 2006
Judgment Day is a show where the two hosts: Tommy and Victor review games and hardware.

The reviews are quick and right to the point, and they also state the good and the bad. After, the individual scores and opinions are given on a scale from 1 to 10.

The episodes are entertaining, but the reviews lack depth. (Mine might be somewhat lacking too.) For example, I didn't think Tommy explained Kirby: Canvas Curse too well. His review was only about 5 sentences long. (Mine is kind of short too. Just bear with me.) Also, fans of the XBOX 360 might not like it either, because one host constantly complained about the overheating. My friend vowed never to watch the show again after that.

The high points are the fact that the reviews are only a couple minutes long. Therefore, they are right to the point, and don;t overstay their welcome. No wonder it used to be called something like "On the Run Reviews."

Also, it is entertainment, and that's what television shows are meant to do: entertain.

Good: Solid entertainment with many reviews per show.

Bad: The reviews seem to lack depth. As stated above, XBOX 360 fans may not like it.
