    Default Your favourite youtube classic game reviewer?

    Who's your favourite youtube.com classic game reviewer?

    I've been watching MJCreview's videos lately and really enjoying them. They're relatively short, but pretty enjoyable. He does a lot of cross-platform stuff, particularly Doom and Mortal Kombat.

    URL for youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/MJCreviews

    Unfortunately, I've watched most of this guy's stuff and need someone else to watch, so please post some more

    You beat me to it, hands down the FUNNIEST reviewer, I love the Angry Video Game Nerd but SpoonyOne is much funnier!

    Thanks for all the recommendations. I can't wait to start pouring through them.

    So, what are people's thoughts on the irate gamer? Personally I watch his stuff but find he's a total douche. I mean, there are AVGN ripoffs, but this guy is like a total clone, just not as good.

    He's not funny.

    I'd say more but the last thing we need are Irate Gamer fanboys to come defend their idol.

    Oh shit really? I didn't realize he had fanboys. You're not serious are you? I thought everyone knew he was just a dickhole.

    I've been browsing through several users and there's tons of people who flame whoever criticizes him. And every time I see a video with the AVGN, they show up and call him an IG ripoff.

    Yeah, I don't get it either.

    To be honest, I never got into the whole "video review" thing. Naw, give me print reviews anyday of the week. (magazine or internet site)

    Well, with video reviews, you can actually see the game be played as you listen to the review.

    And if the reviewer is any good, he or she can show you WHAT the problems with the game are, such as bugs or a high difficulty. Print reviews are good, but words can only say so much about a game.

    I don't think jedite1 is much of a reviewer, but he is a serious and dedicated story teller who is entertaining to watch. All my other favourites are already mentioned.

    PlayItBogart and Armake21 both were removed of youtube because of there content. Stupid Copyright Laws, PlayItBogart explains it here:

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=C1VKThws_BY

    They both moved to Revvier.com because they protect there users and they get paid some pennies if you download and watch. Because of these companies, I think more and more reviewers will be suspended from YouTube in the future.

    Right now, it's Stanbirdman (http://youtube.com/user/stanburdman) because of his Pop Culture references to Video games

    I've got an 11-year-old son, so I like the guys who don't fill their "reviews" with gratuitous F-bombs.

    I don't have any kids but I feel the same way.

    An f-bomb, if used properly, is a powerful and HILARIOUS weapon. Unfortunately I find a lot of game reviewers just use the f-bomb as "that word that just goes between other words". It loses all meaning, is annoying, and is for some reason usually accompanied with lots of loud noises/screaming, which I also hate.

    ive done a few, and theyre ripoffs of the "ripoffers." i might do another one, but i dunno. just not an AVGN ripoff, a review of a shitty game giving my way of insight on it. id be lying if i said i was original.

    I don't like many video reviewers aside from Angry Videogame Nerd. I watch MJCreviews sometimes, but he constantly mis-pronounces titles and seems to have a bias for anything Sega and against N64.

    And he actually calls Super Smash Bros. "Super Smash Bro's" (instead of "Super Smash Brothers"), which I find especially annoying.

    The only video reviewer I truly enjoy on YouTube is lophatjello, aka the Happy Video Game Nerd. He makes long, well informed reviews on classic games, most being somewhat obscure titles. Unfortunately, new entries trickle in at about once every two months. Even when he's off from school, it seems he doesn't have much spare time to create videos.
