 UGO.com Games - G4 interview with Charles Hirschhorn of the videogame television network
G4 means we are 'for games.' It also represents four means of distribution for games: PC, consoles, handheld, and wireless ; four kinds of gamers: casual gamers, hard-core gamers, developers, and people simply curious about games ; also four generations of gaming: pixel gaming, vectors gaming, wire frames, and now, polygonal graphics.
I hope G4 can help serve as a catalyst to support this large community including gamers, developers, publishers, manufacturers, retailers, magazines and websites.
CH: G4 needs the hardcore gamers' support to succeed, but as a 24/7 television network, we plan to offer a variety of programming which will appeal to all levels of gamers from hardcore to those simply curious.
