The title says it all. As of late, Thursday Night Throwdown has become less about community interaction and more about just playing games, old and new. While there is certainly nothing wrong with this, the introduction of Unprofessional Fridays has really made this fact much more glaring as the two shows seem all too similar: the crew bring in a selection of games and we watch each member play a small section of their game. I understand that we're in bit of a dry spell in terms of games as it is the new year and new consoles are just over the horizon so there aren't very many competitive multiplayer outings to be had, but I think TNT should be reworked to bring a little bit more variety to GB content.
My proposal... Thursday Night Throwdown is no longer a weekly show and it only happens when there is a new game with a competent multiplayer suite. In the weeks that this is not the case, we can have shows like Spookin' with Scoops, Jurassic Lark, Random PC Game, or Flight Club to fill that space on Thursdays. This allows more variety in our weekly content consumption and some of these shows that don't happen as regularly can get some air time.
I'm interested in hearing everyone else's opinion regarding the matter. Maybe you enjoy just watching some dudes play games or perhaps you agree that a change should be made?
