A Waste of Time, Even for Gamers, 9 August 2012
2/10
Author: Taylor Sowders (sowders.taylor@yahoo.com) from Kentucky, United States

With CartoonNetwork improving the shows they air, I was fairly excited for a show to mainly revolve around gamers. How wrong I was. When I first watched the movie/premiere, I was sicken. With unoriginal writing and mostly unbearable acting, I couldn't stand it. But when I found out they were going to make a show out of it I almost exploded with anger. This show is probably on of the worst I've ever seen. My 8 year old son said the show was bad. And the way they perceive the gaming community is terrible. In this show two of the 3 main characters are social rejects and the one who is popular is a "closet gamer." And while this on might just bother the gamers, the few clips they showed of the game they mostly played looked like a terrible version of WoW only for 5 year old children. Easily the least entertaining show made over the past 10 years.

Actually pretty good, if you're into online gaming, 23 April 2012
9/10
Author: Joshua Morris from Spain

First, I think the target audience of young adults would give this a higher rating than it actually has as this is not meant for a general audience.

Having played online role playing games, this appealed to me instantly, and I wasn't disappointed. The acting is fine, the dialogue isn't especially spectacular, but the story is original and fun. The special effects are really pretty good for the budget I would suppose this show has.

All in all its a fun show to watch and I would recommend for people who have played online games or role playing games in general.

Take it for what it is.

A disgrace to gamers, 24 February 2012
1/10
Author: nonabear10 from United States

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

I'm not sure if there will really be any spoilers, I'm just covering my butt. OK so this show is a complete and utter disgrace. This show insults real gamers and that pisses me off. They are ashamed to admit they are gamers like its a bad thing. Their fake gaming is deplorable and the phrases they use make my skin crawl. They make real gamers look bad. The thing that really bothers me is that the girl has to be the one that's not a good gamer! For your information girls are just as good as guys are. The Guild is the only show, in my opinion, that does gaming right. They make gamers look bad and obviously have no idea what they are talking about. I seriously doubt that any of the writers have touched a controller or any computer games like WOW. I really hope this show goes away really soon.

cheesy and poorly written, 1 February 2012
6/10
Author: hotnoob from Canada

so far, the episodes of have been very cheesy and poorly written, hence it's a kid's show.

there is some originality, but when phrases like, "resistance is futile" start showing up in non-Star Trek TV series, it just ruins it. admittedly that's from the pilot episode, which is a movie *i think*. the other episodes seem to be much more entertaining.

thankfully the acting is not as bad as expected, but it is still pretty horrible. despite the cheesy moments, it is still somewhat enjoy able. although i'm not a fan of the #1 main character... his fake hacking is just GAH!

so far Jessie Usher's character is my favourite xD gotta love the ponies :)

it's definitely not going to be one of my, "oh my gawd, i can't wait for the next episodes...," but i'll definitely add it onto my list of TV shows to follow.
