I'd be willing to put in an extra buck in my pubclub subscription for this to happen. Maybe... <_<MorganL4 said:agreed. However, if it was a contract dispute that came up, I interpret that to mean $$$ issues. And though a quality site, The Escapist is not financially the most fluid.War Penguin said:Well, there goes any of my reasons why I still occasionally check on G4. Now it's just another generic game site.
I really can't wait to see what he does next. I'm definitely gonna keep an eye on whatever he does, because he was the only reason to check in on G4. He was a damn good journalist.
And I also support trying to hire him for the Escapist. Granted, it's understandable if the odds are slim and you don't get him, but damn, wouldn't it be so bloody awesome? Two awesome sources for gaming, joined into one!
This is...kind of weird.
I've been watching this guy on TechTv/G4/etc since, well, 2001 or so.
He was one of the first 'reviews' (or w/e) that I actually FOLLOWED.
I haven't seen G4 on TV in some time because their weird with the cable packages, but, still...
DOOD!

Well better late then never (leaving G4 I mean)
I have been watching him since 2002 or so and I do respect him and how long he worked with TechTv and G4 and look forward to see what he does next.
As for G4, they are probably going to lose more viewers but I hope that they can find someone to help boost their ratings and not just there for comedy purposes.

Oh man, I used to tape Extended Play if I was going to miss it. I loved that show, and Adam Sessler was amazing. Then X-Play came, and it was still amazing. But like so many others, the show slowly lost its way in my eyes, and I felt so bad that Adam and Morgan had to stay on the show. Adam seemed to want so much more--or maybe that was just me thinking for him.MrBrightside919 said:
This is shocking news. I'm sure Adam will be able to find a new job no problem--and probably already has offers on the table--but still, X-Play without him...hard to imagine. Not that it matters. I haven't watched the show in years, but still. Just...wow. I'll miss him. Hopefully he'll still do his little Soapbox thing whenever he starts his new position.
Not in that video, but the reporter says hes trying to improve gaming journalism and yet...jdogtwodolla said:
Oh and how we deserved the MML3 canning just because we like the series: http://nintendo3dsblog.com/g4-bashes-the-mega-man-legends-3-fan-movement
Or how his review system is:
WRPG: Save the world = best story ever made
JRPG: Save the world = JRPG cliche would not play again
You know, I agree with you about how Sessler is regarding JRPGs, but that's his prerogative. He dislikes them, I don't. On the whole I still think he's probably one of the best guys in the video game journalism industry and I wish him the best of luck. He was funny and insightful, even if he really hated one of my favorite genres.RaikuFA said:
Oh wow I honestly thought this would be another "to start an Indie Company" article again.
Glad I was wrong.
But yeah, cool I guess.

I find him to be quite funny, and I hate to make the hipster comment, but he has been hating JRPGs since long before it was cool. You simply haven't watched that much of X-play. I've been watching it since G4 came into existence, and it was already a thing that he hated them. I am certain he does not hate them because it is cool. He hates them because he usually does not enjoy them. He loved FF12 by the way.RaikuFA said:
Pretty much everything was amazing before Comcast decided to merge Tech TV and G4 into the horrid abomination it is today...the only thing that ever stayed the same was Mister Sessler...Sniper Team 4 said:
RIP G4 and Tech TV
Please, guys. Find something for him to do and come up with a contract enticing enough for him to do it. The man's a gem.dalek sec said:Yes! Escapist, go hire him damnit! I freaking loved him on X-play and it would be a fucking gem to have him here on the Escapist.Xiado said:
