What does /v/ think of Game Sack?
>>
Comfy. Reminds me of G4 shows before they merged with Tech Tv. Bought the blu-ray
>>
>>339881492
I like them a lot. Sometimes they're painfully superficial or ignorant in their commentary, but I don't care. They know who they are, and their content is cozy as fuck.

Anyone ever saw their vid on hardware modding S-video into the Genesis? That was a surprisingly neat episode.
>>
I've seen all their stuff OP and they gell with me. I'm a fan of them

>>339882005
What'd you think of their Nintendo 64 episode? That stands out to me as one of their worse episodes.

Good distraction while eating but I never take them seriously.

So I guess like >>339881798
>>
>>339882052
I'd say their Puzzle Game episode is their worst.
>>
>>339882052
I was bummed they never talked about a Bomber Man game.

It was okay though. I stand united with them in their love of Super Monkey Ball on Gamecube as well.

I like them and their themed episode format.

Their humor is terrible though and I wish they'd stick to just reviewing the games instead of trying so hard to be funny, but at least they save most of their shitty jokes for the obligatory post-credits skit so they don't ruin the whole episode.

i really hate all these retro gaming virgins that obsess over atari and shit like that. Like who cares? These guys, pat the NES punk, pixel dan, they're all losers. They're stuck in the past and i really don't even hate them, that's not the right word, but i hate watching or seeing them. I feel so bad for them. They have these delusions of fame and importance, like these two losers released their own blu ray. I mean come on, no one wants this. AVGN is the exception, he pioneered it and has such a huge following that he actually has people wanting to see that, but this kind of shit, these guys and Pat the NES punk, are just sad.

They're definitely a bit awkward but the more I watched the more charming it became for some reason. I always look forward to their dumb awkward skits at the end now.

The episode about other vidya YouTubers was really funny. The CGR impersonation in particular was spot-on.

their reviews are pretty boring

I could see Mike not liking it (he picked an e-fight with some angry French gamer for being an AVGN ripoff "who gets away with it because he's French" but then they made up with him and he cameo'd in one of Mike or James' videos), but that's a shame about James.

It's more than just aspect ratio. Old games on CRT have a more naturally smooth look. Flatscreens attempt to create an artificial smoothness by naturally upscaling old composite video output. It looks awful.

I really like Game Sack. I like their awkward "dad" humor and how straight-forward they are. They like playing their old video games and that's enough for them. They aren't whoring for views and likes, and they aren't snobby or elitist. They know what they like and they give their opinions. I prefer their simple format and relaxed presentations. I find their end of video skits quite funny. The gunshots and explosion sounds when they load video game carts gets me every time. They aren't being "characters" and I prefer it. As far as them mocking other YouTubers... It was hilarious. Cinemassacre should be the first to agree that they are sick of doing AVGN. I know I'm over watching it.
