I'm going to throw [url="http://www.youtube.com/channel/SWB7f6XITijUc]Content Patch[/url] at you. Rather recently started show, but the host is knowledgeable on the subject and knows what he's doing. As for E3 coverage, there will probably be some on the channel itself once it rolls around.

X-Play is meh, but I've always enjoyed Attack of the Show. Sad to see that go, and sad to see the loss of gaming on TV.

That's the thing, though; is TV really the optimal format for gaming shows? The console debate aside, a significant portion of the average gamer's time will be spent in front of the computer, where they have access to all sorts of news outlets and network services. The two-way communication that the computer offers allows the show to stay in touch with their viewers, and the platform itself allows for more frequent updates, which in turn leads to more up-to-date information.

Well, what does G4 even offer in way of original content now?

This is certainly true. It would be interesting if either of the two shows were viable as a web series though.

Not being an American, but looking at their respective Wikipedia articles, they certainly seem viable as a recurring web series. G4 already does the MMO Report, which (obviously) covers MMOs, but they could certainly turn Attack of the Show into something like that.
