I'd say this episode is going to segway into something else.

I still enjoy his videos especially because sometimes the games he reviews come completely out of left field. I had never heard of either of the games he talked about this week and found it pretty amusing to see him talk about both.
I think people's expectations for these might be a bit too high. Not every game sets itself up for an epic review, but that's okay.
Life is like a hurricane...

James interviewed AJ LoCascio, Marty McFly's voice actor in Telltale's upcoming Back To The Future games.
I guess no one read the post where James said this month's video was going to be a simple one due to all the time he spent on Monster Madness? James is definitely not getting bored of the nerd, especially considering his recent video about a Nerd movie when he openly stated, "I am not running out of ideas" and "I am not getting bored of the nerd". I don't see how this is even a debate.

I think classic video gaming has just gotten boring for him right now. It has happened to me and it happens to alot of people here from time to time. I like his monster madness stuff but sometimes its just too obscure for my taste.
Classic Nerd for me is up until the SMB3/Wizard review. That was the crowning jewel of the nerd character along with the Nintendo Power episode.The quality then started to dip around Indiana Jones with the only notable gem being the Dick Tracy review. A slew of below average videos filled 2009;the worst year of the nerd in my opinion.
Only recent videos I have enjoyed in the Modern Nerd age are Zelda II/Back to the Future Revisited/Street Fighter 2010.
Also maybe its just me but I like his old house better, the basement in his current house looks cramped or something. The old place looked more like a bachelor pad as evident from the Rocky review. Seems like his wife has him and his toys cramped up in the basement.

James reviewed a new game, believe it or not

It's less of a review and more of a "Hey, this is what I think so far". Still pretty good.

And don't bring up that stupid girlie Aladdin rip off! Shantea?
New AVGN video, it's the Christmas special, but it was just a clip show of the past Christmas videos. That's disappointing.
