The Official Angry Video Game Nerd Discussion Thread

It's probably visible in his videos, but I can't help notice the Battletoads poster behind him. I am sure that game would get his hackles up!

T'would be the first AVGN Video that is just complete wall-to-wall profanity.

I liked the part where his cat started to attack the ducks in Duck Hunt. Attacking stuff on the TV is such a cat thing to do.

[guitargary75]

I loved it as always.

The AVGN's YouTube page has been suspended. The internets are trembling.

[Trevelyan]

eurgh, the internets fun rating just dropped

[Coldguy]

its not like he is on another website or anything....

[Trevelyan]

er, well.... yeah.

But Im sure his videos that I could only watch on Youtube (as I dont own the DVD) will be re uploaded.

As The Nerd would say, "That's a bunch of cockey-doo-doo bull shit!"

You have GOT to be shitting me.

Wanna bet it was due to the Rocky documentary?

Fucking hell.

His Cinemassacre account is still open, so it's not that. The speculation on that account's user comments is that it's the Irate Gamer and his toadies.

So what, does that mean that a multitude of people bitching about someone can get their account suspended?

Why people continue to use YouTube is beyond me. It sucks ass because they take everything down.

It is better to use a foreign video streaming site.

No, but fanboy wars can lead to exploitations of the banning system, to be sure. And it's not like the AVGN is the only game reviewer to suddenly loose his account as of late.

[DigitalSpace]

Yeah, I noticed that the YouTube-hosted videos were down when I had decided to watch some random AVGN stuff yesterday. I wound up searching YouTube for the two I wanted to watch (Master Chu and TMNT) in case they may have been viewable on another user's profile, and sure enough, I found both of them elsewhere on the site.

Here's hoping the older videos are added to GameTrailers or Screw Attack.

"I'm drinking a Rolling Rock on the Rock & Roller!" Classic.

Agreed.

What? Is there a story here?

The Irate Gamer, a partner on YouTube, has been accused of being behind a rash of suspensions of the YouTube accounts of various video game reviewers-many of whom are critical of the Irate Gamer, or supportive of the AVGN.

Someone posted a video where the IRATE GAMER got a new asshole torn into him; it explained why he shouldn't be a partner in the first place. He uses tons of material that isn't even his, such as music and movie clips. They go FAR BEYOND fair use, and other members have been suspended for using them far less than he does.

(I'm sorry, I meant the IRATE GAMER, not the AVGN!)

The thing is, the Irate Gamer also uses copyrighted material. And, on top of it, he didn't take it out of his DVD like the AVGN did.

Ugh, The Irate Gamer makes the mistake of trying to bite off the AVGN's schtick, but fails outright. Calling super mario bros 2. "fuck shit, bitch shitty shity" for the 20th time made me never want to hear his name mentoined again.
