Adam Sessler leaves G4. I haven't watched G4 in about 2-3 years but I definitely thought this would never happen.

Sessler's representative:
Television personality Adam Sessler and TV network G4 are parting ways, with Adam's last episode as host of G4's "X-Play" airing on the network today, Wednesday, April 25. Adam has been hosting the show since it first aired as ZDTV's "Gamespot TV" in July 1998 and he also served as Editor In Chief of games content at G4. His current projects include starring as himself in the Summer 2012 movie "noobz" and consulting with a film production company on theatrical feature adaptations of video games. Adam intends to stay in front of the camera and continue as a key voice within the games industry. He also sings and is available for weddings and bar mitzvahs.


as far as where he's going, no one knows. but there's a bunch of speculation about gaming sites like Giant Bomb, Machinima, Game Trailers, etc.

We heard about this news last week via an anonymous source, but we were not able to confirm its validity. According to our sources, Sessler is leaving due to a contractual dispute, and the departure was not on amicable terms.

ah, well you aren't missing anything anyway. last time i sat down and actually watched the channel they literally played ninja warrior and old episodes cops from like 2004 all day until the regular time slots for aots and xplay started. then they'd go right back to playing ninja warrior the rest of the night. from what i hear it's still like that, only now they've "americanized" ninja warrior and made it into more of a team game show.
