...and it's still not that hard to read a return address on a box,  put it on a new one and ship the shit back.  Tell people "Hey thanks man!  Really appreciate it.  I will get this back to you."  My hat goes off to him for doing this for so long but complaining about sending stuff back?  Is this really true that if you send something to get reviewed it is forever "donated"?  That leaves a bad taste in my mouth much like his voice in my ears.

He did this for a hell of a long time without any pay (or any expectation of it, y'know just for the fun of it) and now people are throwing games at him left and right. 


Sounds like he is and has been making money off this..pretty sure Inecom is his full time job

And Chris Bucci would be pretty exstatic if people wanted to throw games at him!  Lol.  ;)

Classic Game Room - PC-ENGINE DUO console review official


More of a showcase than a review, he basically said, Hey this plays games.......

His reviews have never been that in depth to begin with.He just says what he likes about the game or consoles and that's it.Though i never been rude and cuss him out,if he misses a fact i just point it out in the comments.Currently though i more concern with the id content system bs,that google has in place.Since it's working now independent reviewers are being effected of being flagged or losing there channel on youtube.

Crazy ol' Chris Bucci already has a full US set for the TurboGrafx-16. What more could he possibly need in life? So no free games for him. I'm glad he'll never see this comment and I can say anything I want without repercussions! AHAHAHaa oh what?

I've been watching his reviews for off and on for a few years now, and though they are entertaining, I've begun to get a little fed up with them.  In earlier videos, he would showcase the game but now it seems he'd rather showcase his game room and classic cars in the background.  The main thing that originally drew me to his reviews was his "journalistic" approach, but now he seems to stick his ugly face in every video.

I am glad to see that he is finally giving the Turbo some love, but I won't be following him to his site.  Bucci's TurboViews are better anyways!

Agreed.

It's like the ReviewTechUSA guy, Rich. The person on his title card was a drunk, but normal looking dude. Then he attempted to change his format by filming his ugly mug instead of gameplay footage, but people complained.

CGR can provide good entertainment, but he's not much more.

Still, this is actually high praise, since 99.99% of content on YouTube is neither informed nor entertaining.

So, he's still better than most tripe out there. Sad but true.
