I distinctly remember the two Kevins as hosts around the time I watched G4TV. I ended up playing a game called Blockland for years after they showed it on air. Somehow I never realized Kevin Rose went on to become that Kevin Rose.

I used to be in a constant state of amazement that there was a cable TV channel dedicated to gaming. Screen savers was such a fun show.
