You know what? Good for him. He got his enjoyment out of doing the show, and now he is done with it. He was using CGR to promote his new hobby anyway, it was clear to everyone who was keeping up with Mark that while he still loves video games, he didn't like where the industry was headed and wanted a way out.

That was the whole music right thing, which would mute a lot of his video. The 60% partner cut was like 2 years ago IIRC

One of the only two youtube gaming channels I could stand watching.

The other being LGR.

Yeah he moved because he was afraid of muting/copyright strikes. The backlash was bad enough that youtube decided not to be so overt about it and he came back to YT soon after.

Damn, Mark got me into the Genesis, but I'm happy for him. The guy got to spend almost a decade talking about video games and running a great review show, but it just wasn't popular enough. I wish him the best of luck, and I hope the videos stay up for a long time. I still put him on autoplay in the background when I work.

No. It's just that you clearly don't like anything to do with "e-celebs" so why are you even in this thread? Just ignore it. The only reason these threads are even considered a problem is because people like you derail them into shitposting.
>>
>>315305785

You had to pretty much decipher what he was saying, which only comes after you watch so many videos.

If he makes a 2 parter about it, great game
If he says HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended, it's a good game
If he just says HIGHLY recommended, it's ok
If he says "I recommend it for this audience" it's probably shit.
>>
>>315305610
So you really ARE autistic, then? Don't worry, your mommy will make everything alright. She'll make the mean internet people with opinions and interests that differ from you go away.
>>
>>315305785
Well it's no wonder when in each video he goes on a tangent talking about random shit and his reviews feel more like first impressions after a couple of minutes of gameplay.

Undertow is utter shit and lately it seemed like Mark wasn´t really into the whole CGR thing anymore.
I rather have him upload 1-2 reviews per month that are actually fun to watch instead of daily lackluster stuff
>>
I'm gonna miss him though. It was nice listening to someone who actually remembers what fun is talk about vidya, though the whole playing Truxton on the Vectrex while running over JarJar in an El Camino has started getting a bit old.

I hope he knows what he's doing, he's sure as hell not gonna make a living of Ethel the Cyborg Whatever. How much did his subscriber count drop when he moved off YouTube? Is that really the reason?
>>
>no more undertow

Well that's good at least. I never understood the point of that channel. "This critically acclaimed game that already gets a ton of praise is AWESOME!". Not saying Mark was a hardass with his reviews, quite the opposite, but at least he would do some more obscure games/accessories/whatever cool stuff he got his hands on.

Typical CGR review:

From the land of the intergalactic spaceship windsquid comes the almight lord Karnage once again to review ACE COMBAT 04. The 4th Ace Combat in the series, this game is much like the classic thriller movie: Top Gun. (I really should watch that again). That movie was spectacular, staring Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer. And they landed on a battleship in that movie. In this game you fire bullets at other planes, much like in Top Gun. Here are some other movies with planes: Snakes on a Plane. Con Air. Airplane. And the recent classic, Flight 91

Thanks Mark

There goes a legend. As someone who got into video production I'd say Mark was a huge influence and a total professional whenever I talked to him. Am I sad? Of course! Classic Game Room was one of the few shows on gaming that felt honest and real. I'm glad Mark is fallowing his own path. He isn't whimpering like the AVGN. To the man who introduced me to Persona 3, here is to you buddy!
