there were manymany books made before kickstarter and such existed.

Especially when you shoot your videos to look like you're inside Scrooge McDuck's vault.

But we're talking about someone who won't even buy a game to review it.

So do I.

RANT (sorry):

I watch some videos occasionally for entertainment, but I can't stomach too much.

I know this is going to make me sound like a jerk, but I feel that 99% of these folks have extremely limited experience...blah blah blah

This sums up exactly how I feel about most of these jerkoffs - polluting YouTube with a bunch of garbage content that's unresearched and factually incorrect. There's no quality control or passion that goes into 99% of gamer videos.

Dr. Sparkle's stuff, Player One Podcast, Game Sack,  and a slew of others get exemptions of course. For all the shit out there on the 'Tube there's a lot of folks who put great content out there.

This particular reviewer went from honestly reviewing games he knew a lot about and had a connection with to adding younger people to play the more current stuff to exactly what you described.
He also expects donations for stuff he reviews and does not return them. He got upset and made a snarky comment about someone who lent him a pc engine to review and wanted it back afterwards.

Yeah I saw that video. I think it was that video or another where he made a comment about not accepting loaners but for (what ever game) he was willing to make an exception.

The Chrontendo/turbo/etc guy is up there with Bucci.  Other than that, the only gaming channels worth watching (imo) come from the peeps in this forum.

Speaking of this.  Sorry if this is a new question but is the guy who does Turbo Views on here?  I've picked up a large chunk of my collection based offof those reviews.  I really like that channel.

His name is on the member list same as his YouTube ID but I don't think he is active on these forums. I sent him a message over a week ago since joining here as a fan and yet to receive a reply...

Bucci comes here now and then, but it has been a little while since his last appearance.


That's cool...

Wait wait wait....

Are you saying my tween girl man crush on Bucci pm didn't set the forums on fire nore did the world stop because I joined these forums two weeks ago?


Could it be that I am NOT the special sun flower my Army drill Sargent told me I was?


Now I think I need some alone time while I collect my thoughts.

Can't remember what video it was on, but I do remember him saying it was because whenever they had received a loaned item in the past the loanee would often complain about not getting it back for a long time. Apparently they take a while sometimes before they get around to reviewing donated games.

Why doesn't he use the same income used to buy his shiny El Camino to do the book?
