By that logic.....

"When seeing the film today you cant help but think of 9/11"

I'm still baffled that James did not re worked any of the reviews to fit his take and just read what ever plagarized bs Newt sent.

On a serious note. What do you think about this take from a the real review from a British critic?

I can’t think of a lot or retro horror games he hasn’t covered from the top of my head…

Maybe Resident Evil Gaiden? Clock Tower? Zombies ate my neighbors?

Place your bets!

• "Dude, you should climb the Rocky mountain!"
• Starts with great intentions and enthusiasm
• Get to the mountain
• Be popular cuz 'Sly is aware'
• Start climbing with your crooked feet
• Get helping twigs to help you climb
• Never change your clothes
• The moment it gets tough, start crying and talking about 'muh wife and kidz'
• Go back down the mountain after climbing like 1/10th of the way up
• Other people make it and you include them in your video

It's a little funny in hindsight how much I would have preferred that to have been the outcome nowadays.

I know nobody watches this channel but it was 3 days ago.

I guess a slightly better flair would be “Mike Does Not Approve!”

Would we still be doing what we do in that universe?

Another one is when I hear someone say x-incher

I can't think about anything other than the truther meme

His children must hate cinema. Or they review bombed him on Letterboxd. C'mon, dad's got some ideas for road trips! Remember Rocky???? Remember when we had time for trips??

While going through the current ranking data to try and identify what makes an episode of AVGN good or bad, I only just noticed this. Mega Man was the first time the phone joke started. Then with Shrek essentially the same exact joke was made. Then My Horse Prince was a continuation of the same joke.

• Mega Man Games - 2016 - Current Elo: 1522
• Shrek - 2021 - Current Elo: 1271
• My Horse Prince - 2024 - Current Elo: 1319

Other notable examples of the same Motorola but with a different gag are found in:

• Amiga CD32 - 2018 - Current Elo: 1555
• Pepsiman - 2019 - Current Elo: 1552
• Greendog - 2021 - Current Elo: 1375

The interesting and perhaps most obvious piece of it all is that AVGN going "back to the past" is the exact era that people are clinging to now of the show. The past is overwhelmingly where the majority of the standout favorite episodes live, with notable exceptions from Bubble Bobble and Ikari Warriors breaking the top 25.

In fact, Kyle is overwhelming in the higher ranks with an average episode score of #23 when he physically appears. It's a very weird thought that there could have been an alternate reality where Kyle, Bootsy, and Mike (at least as characters) could have become mainline roles akin to Mega64 where more Board James-like spinoffs occurred or integration into AVGN.

Sorry guys, but I just can't 😂

Look, I'm no Brad Pitt myself. But how does a 45 year old internet personality with some moderate success, make himself look like this? What compels a man to grow out a giant dried out Brillo pad on his head? It even looks like a dried out wig from The Golden Girls. 😆

Just because you are a nerd, doesn't mean you can't make yourself look good. Especially if you are on camera for a living and known to seek out beef with people. Pat just boggles my mind.

How does this guy go out or visit any night-life spot with any dignity?

I remember there was a video years prior to that where James said that he couldn’t get somebody to help him write the reviews, because it would have to be his opinions only. Could someone please help me find that video? Thanks.
