Revisited is kino

I think he's out of ideas, he went back to Super Man again, which was a perfectly fine nerd video 11 years ago.

He's gonna take you back to the past...

Swordquest, because it was actual shit about the video games and the history behind them with a bare minimum of his stupid bullshit special effects and "film-making."

Never, he's been consistently gud

2007-2010 were his best years.

He was out of ideas 11 years ago. He doesn't really know a lot about games beyond what he grew up with it's just the nerd character solidified his niche into gaming, when he really cares about filmmaking.

>peak
you mean his hairline? I think it's still going

Man, I love his movie reviews, at least before he had those 2 fat fuck literally who's? with him.

He should just retire the nerd and talk about monster movies.

I don't know why but that lester the unlikely episode marked the slow death of AVGN for me. It was just the first time I ever thought "man that was bad"

even though I'm sure there were other good episodes after that. I think BIG RIGS was after lester and that shit was great

The games themselves weren't very interesting, but i like the episodes where he goes on more about history as opposed to skits

Silver surfer

Never.

2009, 2010 was ok but Street fighter 2010 felt like nu-avgn when it came out.

hes still great

Seasons 2 through 5 are the strongest, but James is still funny imo.
Something his contemporaries like Doug and Noah aren't.

I'm not even mad, I'm just disappointed. So very, very, very disappointed. That new AVGN is maybe the laziest, most boring and apathetic video he has maybe ever made as the Nerd. It is downright offensive. Also, I recently just re-watched their playthrough of Mega Man X. You know that one? The one where he has to stop recording at "exactly 5:40 pm" so he can go upstairs and "watch the kids"? What the fuck does that sow he lives with do? She make any money? Has she ever paid one mortgage bill? He oughta be ashamed of himself. Imagine being so unaware you broadcast that shameful display out for the world to see. A smarter man would know to keep that embarrassment to themselves. James is a short bus kid. Having these YouTube dudes show us who they really are in the extra "let's play" videos was a mistake. I would have preferred to know nothing about him except that he plays a funny character in YouTube videos.

Attached: 156325625636.gif (400x358, 754K)

I wonder if Mike plays the games for him in his reviews and then he talks over them? Even in his LP's when he's playing games he's played before he's really bad at them and looks like he's never held a controller before.

This, episodes like Sword quest and episodes that focus on consoles are by far his best

Where did the hair go?

Blame youtube/twitch for making people have to constantly whore themselves out on youtube. If it was viable to release fewer videos we wouldn't get so much lazier, half-assed content as unedited "let's plays" and impromptu, embarrassing streams.
It's also clear James knows little to nothing about video games, especially when you factor in anything outside of the NES / SNES he's basically completely ignorant of any other console.

He's been trying a ressurgence ever since he got that bearded guy to take over the work on the videos, but it' still very much hit & miss and too early to tell. Finally they're starting to turn down the crispness of the audio quality and making it sound more normal, with less reverb. Maybe he'll even go back to the old glasses- would that be too much to ask for?

>IT'S ANN! MORE LIKE AVGN!

Attached: 69458156814.jpg (480x360, 20K)

I don't even mind being advertised to at the beginning of videos. i don't mind sponsored content. But I feel insulted when it seems like the creator rushed to pump out a new video SOLELY to cash a sponsor paycheck, which is what that new AVGN feels like. "James, quick. We can have a payday if ExpressVPN has an ad in a new nerd episode, but they said in their email it's gotta be done and on YouTube by Wednesday at 3pm Eastern Time. Got any ideas James?"

>He should just retire the nerd and talk about monster movies.

He's not a retard like the Nostalgia Critic. He's not gonna retire what the vast majority of viewers want to see. The AVGN is always gonna be a reliable source of income.

Why is the ROB episode the point most fans say he starts going to shit?

Probably the episode where he plays that navy game with the power glove and it takes him a full hour to get the fucking thing to actually work

I think that was around 2009?

Around when ProJared made Ross into a cuck

Underrated episode.

James the Nintendo Nerd and Motherfucker Mike didn't write this episode. Middle aged, slightly balding, married father of 2, fiscally responsible Jim made this. It's sickening.

>Justin Silverman
This guy ruined the whole experience when I got to meet James earlier this year.

All he did was go off to the people in the line about how much of a hassle these autograph events are and how they don't even make any real money doing it and that they really don't want to do it at all.

He was essentially ragging on us for wanting to meet James in the first place by being fans.

at least we actually get to see him review the whole game instead of him not being able to get past the first level or two.

Where were you when AVGN made the review that saved all of Cinnemassacre?

>maybe i'll review that in the year 2020
what did he mean by this?

The CGi Superman joke was funny but that's about it.

I stopped around the five minute mark, everything just looked really forced and boring.

The only way this review could save Cinemassacre is if he reviewed this game sometime in 2009 and kept the video saved on a hard drive to upload to the internet in 2020. I don't want 2020 AVGN reviewing this game.

WOAH, this was a good reference to an old avgn! it makes up a little for the shit episode.

Ninja Gaiden

I don't know how you can watch something like the new Pepsi man vid and think no passion or soul went into that, that's going above and beyond what he'd have to do.

did you read the gametrailer comments when lester came out? It was a disaster at the time, it was rated significantly lower than the other nerd eps. it was the first case of nu nerd.
Looking back, the episode would not be considered shit compared to what has come out after with eps like treasure master.

It wasnt the death. We got god tier eps like tiger and ikari warriors. but it was foreshadowing

Considering how bad an e-celeb can get, which is especially topical now with you-know-who, I'm glad that his content isn't in the offensive realm or that he did something shitty.

this year's episodes maybe but Earthbound was gold, Wrestling games was perfectly fine, and Robocop was okay.

I hate Ryan so much

Its been rocky, but I think everything after Ghost and Goblins is when things stopped being consistently great.

Virgin rolfe vs Chad Matei

Virgin Jimmy vs Chad Bimmy

There are some decent ones, but most of them just bore me

I gotta say I laughed when he joked about there being another rings segment in the final level

Little Red Hood, I think.

To be fair, this isn't the first time he's revisited a game he couldn't finish and is probably something he can give more of a shit about than stuff like Sonic '06

still blew my mind that there was essentially a better superman 64 but on playstation.

i dont think so. the superman episode always felt short to me. the nerd ep sucked, but im glad we got to see the whole game.

Who the fuck is Ryan?

he made a point in a recent vid that he could never be out of ideas with all the shit fans peddle at him.

Treasure Master and Onwards should be called the Screenwave Era

back when Mike used to write the show, i think he quit writing it around 2011 or 2012

That is exactly what they have done since the first season

It might've been alright if the Retro-Ahoi vid wasn't released right around the same time and pretty much overshadowed everything else related to the myth.

I forgot about sword quest, now that was a quality video.

spbp

They need to find a way to make the footage look more soulful. All this HD stuff they use now is way too glossy.

its been hd for what 7 years? if they went back to 480p it would be retarded

I laughed when he charged Darkseid and glitched through the floor, cause I was honestly expecting another “oh hey look this guy is super easy” fight based on how the last 3 jokes tried to go over. Rest of the ep was super forced, the Mario 64 part got me pissed cause now I want an AVGN where he talks about Mario 64, some of the more frustrating moments of that game, and the impact it had on vidya at the time - informative James talking about vidya history is intriguing, it’s what makes the Castlevania episodes, the Nintendo Power episode, and Chronologically Confused About Zelda so god-tier episodes.

Mike wrote that one. Hes all about the atari crap

I'm not saying go back to SD, just find a way to give it SOUL

Ok Avgn peaked at episode 107 for me or season 1-6 are some of the best and rewatchable episodes. I seriously just put them on in the backgrounds and I can just quote so much from them. I guess I’ll always have that nostalgia watching them on game trailers and watching Screwattack. At least I keep up with the new episodes even if they’re pretty bad.

am i the only one that thinks the lighting has been way too bright in these more recent episodes?

They shat on everything though

Honestly don't think he even plays a big role anymore apart from acting his role. The latest AVGN episodes are all sterile as fuck. Either James doesn't care anymore, or somebody else (not even Mik) is writing and editing the episodes (plus James doesn't care anymore).

Why is Mike such a good writer?

It's really fucking Good. The only thing is that nowadays avgn has just as good episodes as before but they're separated by episodes that suck.

The worst episodes are the ones where he didn't play the game and Mike beat it for him and he's acting ungenuinly to the footage

I laughed at the green face e bitch

it was fucking garbage and youre just underage faggots

No, you have to understand that AVGN works for Yea Forums and isn't allowed to have family time unless the board declares it's okay.

I can't pinpoint exactly when it happened, but AVGN got ridiculously Flanderized. Every element of his character has been exaggerated to the point of obnoxiousness. He actually had a much more calm, almost believable demeanor in his older videos--you could have genuinely taken him for a guy that just got pissed at video games (I remember a lot of people DID think that until he made his first video out-of-character). His outbursts were reserved for genuinely frustrating moments, and it wasn't the outbursts themselves that were over the top (generally, anyway), it was their content, and that's what made it funny.

Nowadays, he'll suffer the most minor inconvenience in a game, and sperg out and scream for half of the episode. It all just feels forced and very non-genuine. Also, literally every episode has to have some stupid subplot nowadays, generally about the game cart or a character in it coming to life.

Back then he played games that he disliked since his childhood so the hate is genuine.
Nowadays he's just another "look at the game my fans found on TV Tropes' "So Bad It's Horrible" page! Fucking doodie - so angry D:< ! By the way this video is sponsored by Dollar Shave Cuck" Youtuber.
Doesn't help that a lot of the stuff has been covered by other reviewers by now so his vids and issues might seem lame, stale and repetitive - tere's only so many times you can hear about Big Rigs or Polybius.

Ikari Warriors, no matter how may times I rewatch it theres always some joke I forgot about that gets me again

damn, look at that full head of hair

Gonna give it to Swordquest as well. AVGN played a huge role in me learning about older games and systems back in middle school so I feel like his more historical videos hold up way better.

I can't bring myself to watch the new video. I already felt bad for James being stuck in his role and retreading Superman 64 makes it more apparent

I understood that reference

What's the issue with that video? It was an interesting challenge and seeing someone play Ninja Gaiden and do surprisingly well with Boxing Gloves on was great. Punch Out got a little boring but they kind of had to go for it considering.

I honestly don’t think his videos have changed nearly enough to justify saying the new ones are shit and the old ones are good. Whenever he does a more informative video about something that hasn’t been done to death, it will be entertaining, even if not all that funny. That is for AVGN itself, I can’t speak for the rest of his channel.

t.assmad matrix fan

They've changed if just for the fact James doesn't write, produce, or edit them anymore. Screenwave is using him as a puppet.

Is Betus even alive? His last upload was 2 years ago

He just shows up and says his lines now. I mean, look at the ad that preceded the newest episode. Do you really think James knows who Jessi Slaughter is?

>Mike Matei era
>>ep 4-107*

I kinda don't like Mike (his autistic weirdo fans don't help), but you can really see the difference in quality between good and bad AVGNs when Mike is contributing (but Mike is also responsible for some bad AVGNs during the golden era too so it's still a conflicting feeling)

Yeah, he was streaming on and off for a while and dropping in on beef's streams on occasion. I know he moved a little while back too, so I imagine his work situation changed as well. Add the fact he's Betus on top of that and you get a two year hiatus

Play the video in 240p, I'm dead fucking serious.

Kyle and James just go well together.

no wonder james fired kyle

He needs to do another hardware video. Though I can't think of any.

Attached: 1559703458852.jpg (570x676, 96K)

That's a fair enough objection, but it's not like an ad spot is the entire show. He still needs to play the games and come up with criticism, no? I haven't seen anybody who works on the show saying that he doesn't even do that anymore. As far as I know, James retains creative control. And given that he's an aspiring film maker, I find it hard to believe he'd give that up entirely. At least, I don't want to believe it

Seaman.

Based.

is him giving up on the comb over in this new video an indication of soul level increasing, or decreasing?

i was wondering this too. i think they felt like they were being more original and self produced.

If that ever happens then it'll be Wii accessories. Going full circle with that one christmas episode. Minus the hair.

>And given that he's an aspiring film maker
that's exactly why he lets others work on AVGN while he does other things

Was just thinking this as I took a shit

Attached: laughinnerd.jpg (500x333, 30K)

His knowledge of gaming outside of Nintendo is pretty close to nil, yeah. That Game Sack parody of AVGN was spot on and apparently James/Mike (probably all Mike) didn't like how he was portrayed when I read through the comments straight from Joe himself. Truth hurts. I like James, but he's a huge Nintendo fanboy and that clouds his perception most of the time when trying to branch out.

>that one metal guy showing James and Mike Resident Evil 2 the original version
>Mike: hey you know what this reminds me of
>Mike: Zelda
>Mike talks about Zelda for like 5 minutes

Ah, maybe, but I think creatives are generally touchy about these kinds of things

>He still needs to play the games and come up with criticism, no?
All of this footage was just taken from a Mike Matei stream from years ago.

God fucking damn, Dude. James needs to get away from those fat fucks, hire an editor and just post less
You just ruined AVGN for me
fuck

My favorites are Ninja Gaiden and Battletoads, but he's still entertaining most of the time nowadays. Sometimes you can see he played something so bad and uninteresting that he couldn't give a damn about playing the thing properly, so episode quality depends a lot on how interesting the game is.

Pretty much yeah.
The biggest difference between modern AVGN and classic AVGN imo is the bad episodes feel really ungenuine and boring instead of just boring.

he's got the simpsons syndrome. the creativity and spirit of the original ended long ago, but he still believes he must continue, he owes it to the fans or something. so he's forcing himself to do it, flanderizes the character so it's easier to play it, and brings in celebs like the kid from home alone playing as themselves to pad the videos.

Maybe I'll start liking him if he doesn't apologize for it

Ive seen all his game reviews, and i can not think of a single memorable moment or joke. I think theyre okay , as i was able to watch all his videos. But the amount of praise jontron gets is fucking unbelievable. Hes no better than your typical infographic gaming channel in terms of humor. His commentary is nice, but when he attempts at a joke, fucking cringe. The fact that you think avgn is the shitty version of jontron, and not the other way around shows how much of a deluded normie you are. You are basically the same people who think Zelda BotW is the best Zelda game ever made. I think that avgn is way pass his glory days.
But if i were to compare the peak of avgn to peak jontron, jontron doesnt even come close

i can think of countless classic avgn moments

find me a single fucking jontron video thats funnier than a vid like this

When it comes to nu-youtube personalities, i dont even consider jontron the best. Scot the Woz is honestly better to me. i love scot the woz, if scot had the popularity jontron has, i could understand. but jontron being better than classic avgn? kys

Isn't it weird how Cinemassacre still hasn't reached 3 million subs yet?

This was great though.

Mike wrote the swordquest one

Its Mikes channel, if he wants to put other crap on there he can honestly

But the channel gets more monthly views then jontron plus every other retro gaming channel combined. literally.

James has recorded the gameplay some of the episodes, sure. The majority prior to ep 100 was Mike.

serious? was this calculated from social blade? i guess its because theres so many videos on the channel to watch

Kyle cant hold an N64 controller. His music career is a joke. And he looks like an asshole wearing that fedora. Also, James wrote the lyrics to the avgn theme song. Kyles only claim to fame is strumming a guitar, once. Over a decade ago.

that and Rental reviews does well view wise. Some people may hate it but it gets views. Combine that with another 2-3 hundred thousand a week with james and mike mondays and already you have a big channel. then comes in avgn. It does very very well. Yes i got the information from social blade. Regardless if you love or hate the new episodes their channel is killing it.

i like rental reviews

Jon makes like 3 videos a year

He makes more now. They get A LOT of views. But overall it doesn’t compare to cinemassacre with the constant uploads and much more vast back catalogue of videos

>new video from cinemassacre
>oh james is gonna talk about that movie? that's great this will be a comfy and entertaining watch
>it's his new friends

Dick Tracy was pretty good
the one time his anger seemed genuine

Its pretty good. James likes it because its movies. James likes games a bit but you can tell hes more interested to talk movies. What I dont like is James lack of effort in tryingb any games that arent “super intendo” as he would say like a literal retard.

Genuine based on a script. Sure. None are genuine because he isnt playing the game at the same time as he records the video. Or that in most cases, never played the game himself at all.

correction, his employees he pays to edit and write his videos

Not a single consensus appears on he allegedly "went bad" lol. Into the trash thus thread goes. We’ll try again in a few years.

James wife is an sjw and she controls him. She wears the pants in the house. She sleeps with superior black men and Mike. Who have huge cocks that can fill her up like little dick cuck James could never accomplish. Then he takes care of two children that arent his.

Watching those ads make me sad, why does youtube force youtubers to do this shit?

cringe..

>you-know-who
I don't.

Wasn't that "Consequences will never be the same" thing from around 2010?

that's not the real quote, but he does indeed warns about the racist jokes of the three stooges .
i'm sure he just said that to stay face, if he didn't, then pseudo journalists would start saying "look, James likes racist humor, he is a racist white male worst than Hitler"

projared

at the hight of the 'cuck' meme james got roped into it because both leftards and rightards got mad at him for not reviewing the ghostbusters reboot, and his wife said something like 'his videos are such a sausage fest'.

The decline started around the 20th episode or so. When the formula started to really grow stale.

No wonder he's trying to go back.

>he thinks the cuck meme started from the ghostbusters incident
holy shit, you are so new it hurts. the ghostbusters incident is when Yea Forums and Yea Forums started saying james was uncucked, you moron.

The cuck meme started in 2014 because of the infamous april blog post in 2012 about cinemassacre being a "caucasian sausage fest" and because of this scene in the avgn movie

It had nothing to do with the ghostbusters review and everything to do with his wife's comment, which, you devilishly forgot to properly say it, since she complained it was a "CAUCASIAN sausage fest", along with the AVGN movie in which he makes the girl sidekick kiss the nigger at the end, for no reason.

is the movie worth watching?

We’re so goddamn close

>Those jabs at Man Of Steel (even going as far as to mute the colors of the scene) Justice League, and Reign of the Supermen

heh

if this episode is so bad, why does it have so many likes?

He did stream again a week ago. Maybe, just MAYBE, he will UNJUST himself.

While he was still making 10k a month from patreon. His sheeple were just as loyal as DSP's. I don't know why he threw that away.

well shit i wrong

Another good episode. How little of Superman 64 got touched the 1st time was a bit of a sour spot, he reviewed half of the 1st level and that was it. Finally coming back to it and beating the full game is great, and the video comes with a few good references to past jokes in the series and also some decent trivia on Superman himself.

The "skit" scenes were super short and literally only to bookend the review, which was perfect and let him focus on the game, because this was a game worth another look.

Revisiting Superman actually made a lot of sense though, he literally didn't finish the 1st level last time. Considering it's one of the most iconic "shitty games" of all time, it deserved an actual playthrough.

He's out of the best material, but there's only so many shitty games worth playing to begin with. If this episode was bad I could see complaining about it, but it's a good episode, it had decent jokes and didn't waste any time.

white guilt and virtue signaling. "look at me, i'm sensitive and progressive, see? i'm one of the good guys, part of the crowd! i'm not a bad person! don't hate me, accept me."

AVGN peaked at Polybius episode because most of it was well made and it scared the shit out of me on the night i watched it

>It's also clear James knows little to nothing about video games, especially when you factor in anything outside of the NES / SNES he's basically completely ignorant of any other console.
Faggot, James TAUGHT Yea Forums most of what it knows about half of all old consoles. How many faggots on Yea Forums owned a Jaguar? How many owned a Virtual Boy? How many watched James videos on them as first real exposure to see how they actually function, how they work, ect?

James knows more about consoles than 90% of "gamers", his niche is older stuff but he's shown off basically every console in his range.

polybius episode was fucking shit and predictable
>its not like ill get addicted to this game at all
>totally not
>*gets addicted*
>*marathon of james hammy acting*
did you honestly think that part where he reads an email was clever or noteworthy at all? im wondering if james intended to be so bad its good, if he did, kudos, cause that was one of the worst attempts at horror ive ever seen

To be fair it was a decent ad, he filled it with flavor and had some decent corny jokes in it instead of just doing a straight infomercial like every other cash-in youtuber does. Making the ad feel like content goes a long way, I made it through the ad without needing to skip it because it was entertaining enough with Jame's character and jokes.

The first two are classic golden-era tier jokes user, you've just grown up past the prime age for those jokes oldtimer.

The last one was a reference to a past gripe of his, not a claim that tmnt invented that shitty mechanic.

Earthbound or game boy, tho I haven't seen the Pepsiman thing yet

It's a joke that won't be a joke soon because somehow the series is surviving until the year 2020, I'm fully expecting Raid 2020 review to come out in January 2020. It'll start as a regular review but end up being a reflection, with him doing something similar to Earthbound's review where he thinks about the past, and maybe now that he's fulfilled his obligation on that decade-old brick joke he can end the review by finally retiring the nerd character

It would have been better if they released it because that was a beta, instead we got something clearly unfinished.

Nigga you can scale it down to 480p yourself if you want, it would look the same as if they released it in 480p.

None of the superman footage was him playing, but were apparently from Mike's steam

The thing about his reviews is that his gameplay is always 100% his own gameplay, recorded himself. He had 3 jokes about easy bosses because they were that easy, and he probably included all 3 as simple jokes just to enhance the joke about the glitch on the 4th one.

I'm surprised he didn't bring the Glitch Gremlin back, he seemed to want to pack this episode with nostalgia.

>retiring the nerd character
I know it has to nay needs to happen eventually, but boi...

He's still good, just wish he would stop hanging out with fat fucks AND I miss his hair

So what is the joke exactly? I thought it was maybe something startrek related with the visor dude being Geordi la Forge, and the dude with silver paint on his face being Data, but apparently that's not it?

At birth.

>he still believes numbers and popularity = quality
millions of flies eat shit all the time. that must mean it's good. right? it's liked by millions.

same applies to humans. normies have no taste, they gobble up shit like hotcakes because others do it.

shh, Yea Forums has autism so it can't comprehend things that aren't simple black and white concepts.

>his peak was the avgn games episode.
What? That episode was pretty shitty, it was 100% just references to better episodes because that's all the fucking games were. It had a decent joke about not knowing who the fuck "Motherfucker Mike" is, but other than that it was a decent episode at best.

You guys are morons to think that a peak does not exist.
