Level Up

This show is absolutely horrible. As a fan of MMO's and all things nerdy, I find this show to be quite insulting. The premise is tired and outdated, the CG is painful to watch, and the "acting" is less than B-movie quality. Not sure who their target audience is for this, maybe children under twelve. Although, the jokes and pop culture references seemed to be aimed at people in their 20's. Yes, I know this is being shown on Cartoon Network, but seriously. Overall, a weak attempt to cash in on MMO/nerd demographic. Want a good show about MMO's with a story and cast you can get behind? Go watch The Guild. Hopefully, big studios will eventually get this subject correct and do a little bit of research before they decide to try this again.

I really like this show. I agree with many of the other reviews saying that the acting is cheesy but this show makes me laugh so hard. I really enjoy it... I am a 27 year old so I think that says something.

I do think the theme of the show is interesting and different from other shows. Yes it is KINDA like Power Rangers but it is fun and unique in its own right. I also think the directing and editing is good because the way they use camera angles to put us in the action is very neat.

All and all, this show is for children so how an adult feels is probably not all that important to the network....

I would recommend this show.

This show is trying too hard to be an edgy gaming show for children.Many jokes will go right over the heads of the target audience and adults watching along will be insulted, especially ones who play MMORPGs. I'm just utterly surprised with the crap they're feeding kids these days. And also, what's this live action show doing on cartoon network? Many younger children prefer the bright color from a cartoon instead of plain live action and will not hesitate to change the channel. Also, I find it incredibly insulting to girl gamers. For example the girl protagonist is labeled "and let me stress, not much of a gamer" and how dinner and laser tag "not being a date". The producers of the show are running with an incredibly out of date stereotype. As for effects, I'm thinking they were going for the Power Rangers look, but with the CGI and the like, the terrible props and CGI just make for a huge cluster of laughable quality. Point is, not worth being on t.v. and I should not have to have to displeasure of seeing commercials of it every 5 minutes on cartoon network.

This show is not as bad as some people think. The idea of characters from a computer game appearing in reality is not a new idea but they have created a decent story on how it happened (sort of). This show has a guild who play together who turn out to be a nerd,bad boy and jock showing that many different types of people play these games which makes a change from it only being the nerdy kids. People have said that the weapons look stupid but they are supposed to look like the ones from the game so i do not know what they expected. This first episode (pilot film) sets up the story well has some lines that game players will recognise and has enough action to keep young kids spellbound. All in all i enjoyed the show and hope it does continue as there is such a wealth of online material they could use (i wonder how long it would be before Chuck Norris is mentioned lol).

I played WoW few years ago so I was kinda nostalgic to see series about MMORPG-s. I expected it to be "unrealistic", but hey, some things cannot be transfered to TV screen...

But this is just awful, I really cannot imagine that someone actually allowed this to be shot, put money in it. It has some silly/funny/kinda entertaining moments, but mostly I couldn't believe how bad it is...

Of course they had to put in moralistic lesson about sticking with friends, which I guess is a must in this kind of series.

Props look ridiculous but I guess they were going for that look.

In the end I kinda think I am targeted audience, people who play/played games, but I cannot imagine watching this now or when I was younger.

But I bet there wont be 2nd episode... If there will.. I will watch 2nd episode just for being wrong :p
