You've got the potential for an online gamer public, but going mainstream is something else...
You need to go in "professional" mode:
-Simple dialogue
-A few good actors
-Effective camera angle and lights
-Some color correction
And I don't see why you would want to go on TV anyway? I think you should rethink you're project. Being on TV isn't that great. Just have some fun in the process.
This is purely for the most hardcore of gamers specifically those who follow the scene by posting on message boards and so forth. Obviously I take no offense from the ignorant since they don't know any better. It's really more of an exageration of what eally goes on but fundemntally based on what goes on. The internet is a strange place my friends, deal with it.
For what i read the haters here must be non-gamers or gamers who see too much of themselfs in this "show" i think its funny at least! And dont forget this is just a pilot so it might get better. Don't hate!
I like it, it's got spunk. Comedy is supposed to exaggerate to make things looks foolish, that's the point. It's a little rough on the production, but shows potential IMO. Seems like it's going for the pacing of Spaced on BBC. Good work guys! I hope you can get some backing to take it to the next level.
i think its humorous how many people choose the word "gay" as the best adjective to describe this trailer which has absolutely no sexual connotations.
I don't know if anyone told you, but "gay" is now standard vernacular to describe something that is embarrassingly idiotic or a waste of time or the like. It's been somewhat displaced from its original definition; it's the new 'retarded'. Nice one trying to act "anti-hipster", though-- I was really convinced. You almost sounded like you had something significant to say.
lol some people need to pull the poll out of there ass. This isn't half bad mate, and I look forward to seeing more! Nothing wrong with parodying gamers. Keep it up. Nice to see some impressively good armature actors too! A rare thing there.
You know, I would love to see a show like this, but one problem you have is that ALL your characters are extreme exaggerations. You are kind of portraying gamers in a hugely negative light. A lot of your characters were violent and over the top. Oh, also, one thing that really hurts your trailer is that who ever is filming is often reeeeally shaky. It almost makes me neasues watching it. Otherwise, I do like the idea, and some of your jokes are funny, just not executed well enough.
I think it has potential. I certainly would watch a show of it. As for the whole production quality thing, it IS just a spec trailer. The whole point of having a network run your show is that they give you money to do good work. Otherwise, you might as well just do it yourself for free.
Honestly the video quality is a "little" cheesy, but it's really not bad considering these guys probably have no money (I've seen worse pilot trailers). This honestly has a lot of potential, problem is what station does it belong on? It seems as though G4 isn't really a gamer channel anymore.
dude if you can't handle criticism, you may as well delete your entire youtube account now. to state my own opinion, which is what is intended by this little comment box, this video made my head hurt. if this show DID make it to television, it would have gamer fans the way Hackers had hacker fans. Not gonna happen, kids.

I find this video to be quite terrible. The worst part is that I'm probably the target market as I got all the references, it just wasn't funny.
I assume you're using actual high school kids so I won't say anything about the acting.
I'll wait for the actual episode to release to make a full judgement but I voted this a one because its pretty god damn bad.
On the upside, its better than Game Life.

they just need a lot better production, add some lights and keep the camera steady, it would be cool, it they choose comic style camera angles.
