I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
Loved this one, felt like an old episode.
It also seems that Mike is back and that James has pushed the screenwave dudes to the side. All good news imo.

Man do I miss James and Mike Monday's. Hope they get back to doing those some day.

Wonder how many here can relate to the sandwich story
Oh yes, this is the on going nightmare for many 80's kids.

Not gone, but having less influence than before, at least when it comes to AVGN episodes.
I read that on 4chan back when I wrote that post, sorry for not being able to provide a source but I will if I find it.

That explains why this episode was so much better.
Look at the video credits. They help with editing, but James writes and directs his videos again.

I wasn't sure where to put this but this new video is seriously cool.

I found this guy really amusing about a decade or so ago, either content quality has dropped or I've just well and truly outgrown it.

Was catching up on a few episodes and my son came downstairs and casually asked "you watching this alone?.. what year is it?".
Sooo.. yeah, not hitting the highs it used to

Tbh, I've never really been that big into YouTubers.
I watch game sack sometimes, but I don't enjoy it like I use too, I think it was better when there was two of them.

Ask me about my terrible takes on Star Trek characters
Pretty funny actually. He used Kid Icarus as a way of poking fun at how disgusting ancient mythology is.

Weren't these written by one of the Screenwave guys? I guess it's relevant now, as he seems to have parted with Screenwave, so he needs to write these himself now.

Totally off-topic I know but is it just me or is his hair-line receding? That's what always being angry can do to you, the stress!

He's been losing his hair for a good while now.Totally off-topic I know but is it just me or is his hair-line receding? That's what always being angry can do to you, the stress!
I used to love AVGN. Screenwave fucked the series up for me and unfortunately it's just not the same anymore. His older stuff is a lot more organic feeling. "I'm going to rant while playing this game" and his nerd room felt like a big art of it.
Now its "I'm going to sit here in front of a camera and talk over gameplay clips" where the camera is much more framed around him and theres very little movement and his surroundings are just.. static.

Higher production values, the need to add in a sponsor at the beginning it never used to be that way on Gametrailers, so it was obvious he was going to change with the changing landscape of web videos compared to what it was like 10 years ago for him...

He needs to bring back James and Mike Mondays

I mean, isn't he in his early 40s? People lose hair as they age. There's a lot to criticize James for regarding the quality of AVGN for the last 5 to 6 years, but hair loss is not one of them. I would just tell him he needs to change his hairstyle because it highlights his hair loss.Totally off-topic I know but is it just me or is his hair-line receding?

I 100% Earthworm Jim 3D when I was 15.
The game felt like punishment at times, it was really bad.

For sure, that hairline is looking horrid

Yeah, and its current style does him no favors. My recommendation would be to totally shave it all off and grow some facial hair. The few friends that I have who lost their hair early used this method and it helps a lot.For sure, that hairline is looking horrid

His early stuff was enjoyable, it felt more organic and sincere. This was also at a time when YouTube was in it’s early years and imo still the best period of the site itself.
I barely watch the guy these days, the last two episodes that truly made me laugh was Crazy Bus particularly his facial expressions during the games bizarre title screen and The Town with no Name.
He’s never been the same since that awful film he made.
