>mike gets a bj from alphaomegasin.jpg
But he's not tho
He's the cancer killing Cinemassacre. He thinks he's such hot shit he really thinks people like it when it's just him or him and some dude that's not James. He's obnoxious, childish, and fucking unbearable.
>>339911417
>Hating on Motherfucker Mike
Come on.
>>339911519
There's a reason James is the fucking star. The guy is likable and has great charisma. Mike is annoying and full of himself. No one gives a shit about mike's thoughts on things, no one wants to see him review a movie, and for a good reason.
MODS
>>339911417
Pretty sure Mike knows he isn't hot shit, seeing as people hate on him all the fucking time
>>339912217
Even if people dont care for mike, at least he puts out videos on their channel. Meanwhile james does jack shit lately.
>>339912414
I actually like him, obviously not as much as James though. I imagine that being a father is taking up the majority of his time
>>339909434
>liking any one with a stupid cringey name like mother fucker Mike
If anyone likes him or thinks hes funny, even unironically, you're a faggot.
>>339912414
That's because James is not only busy with other vids, but he's also a dad, who's got a little girl who's in elementary by now. He's a busy man.
>>339912534
So that gives james the excuse to have mike do all the heavy lifting i suppose
>>339912603
Hell no I'm not defending mike at all. Mike can go die in a ditch. I'm saying is rather wait for a good vid my James than a shitty pumped out solo lets play of mike
>>339913082
Makes sense. You'll just have to wait for mike to write the script before you'll be able to have any of those james videos your waiting for
>>339911147
That video made my asshole pucker.
I've gradually accepted him. Much the same as bootsy. The order in which the likeness happened is obvious enough.
I do find him annoying. Nobody is perfect though and I could only hope I would have played a better role myself. Let he who is perfect cast the first stone, eh? So, he's alright. He is funny sometimes and is better at the vidya than James. I'm pretty sure he is at least Bi. lol, I guess should stop there with it.
Like my blog post, /v/?
>>339915590
He has a pretty slammin girlfriend so not sure about that
>>339915590
i fucking love bootsy
>>339909434
Because he's the perfect man, as he has a 20 inch Donkey Kong in his trousers, on top of a full set of hair, AND he isn't bad at games. On top of all that, he still finds it in his heart and spare time to keep James afloat, to ensure James is making people happy the world over.Give him Tiny Toons NES and watch him buckle harder than someone playing Ninja Gaiden
ten
>>339916006
Mike beat ninja gaiden
>>339915796
I don't see why that would matter.
>>339915913
Bootsy is cool. I don't have anything bad to say about em. I likem more than Mike. They're all cool though. Only e-celebs I like. Pat would be the closest to it mostly for his NES collecting shit but he's 2annoying4me.
>>339916137
Hes got a 10 inch penis
>>339916165
As well as a ton of other hard games, but he really went through the ringer the other night while streaming Tiny Toons.
Hoping to see him complete it at some point.

I think Mike has more charisma than James these days desu senpai
>>339909434
is he trying to revive the "my hair in an eagle" guy meme?
>>339919772
/v/ is my favorite example of crowd mentality and repressed homosexuality.
I watched a video with him and he seemed like an uninteresting idiot.
>>339909434
boring as shit he is
>>339915913
But he fucked a fish.
>>339909610
mods don't seem to get it for some reason, every time they warn or ban they even point to how it's offtopic when the rules specifically say video games culture is allowed. What the fuck is video games culture if not JAMES motherfucking ROLFE? Is talking about doritos and mnt dew more video games culture?
Mike '10 inches' Matei
>>339919772
/v/ wasn't serious about the cuck thing
when the SJWs came after him, /v/ showed that they loved him
tsundere as fuck
ELMO'S CUM RAG
>>339911519
Mike rides on James' coattails. Not to mention how ridiculously annoying he sounds when he tries to copy James's cursing. He sounds like a little brother hearing his older brother curse for the first time and parrots it because he wants to sound cool.
>"Heh heh! *snort* What a fuck load of shit!"
Fuck off, Mike.
MODS
>>339919984
/v/ was definitely serious since his movie sucked ass and his SJW wife, and he was balding. On top of that there was a period when cinemassacre barely made content and if they did it was nothing noteworthy so everyone pushed the narrative that james is a cuck and just fuck my shit up
But recently their content has been up to snuff and James UNJUST'ing himself, so we can truly like him again.
>>339920102

>>339920276
>>339913196
Giant misconception.
James writes the scripts/base. Mike talks to James about what he thinks might be funny. James will add it if so.
>Contains hand-written notes from playing games. This is typically done during the pre-script phase where I play the games and write down my observations. Has timecodes written, while recording the gameplay, so that I can find specific gameplay moments when editing the video.
>>339920485
Plumbers don't wear ties

Both, him and James are often showing a serious lack of common knowledge and insight in their non-scripted videos. It's really jarring and cringe inducing at times. So, none of them are 'based' but I like James for his honesty and general friendliness. Mike on the other hand is just obnoxious - a typical "come on, it's just a joke! lighten up!" kinda guy who doesn't even begin to understand why people don't like him (well, obviously not everyone doesn't).
>>339920858
>Yeah those are great, it's why for some reason I love his videos on formats and movie collections
You might want to check out Oddity Archive. He's made a lot of videos on obscure formats
https://www.youtube.com/user/OddityArchive/videos
>>339922949
nice, thanks. Seems like just the channel for me
Man his hair is weird
>>339909434
He's pretty great
But absolutely no showmanship or tact. His videos are pretty lazy.
i actually like motherfucker mike, but...

sometimes i stop watching a vid if this shit goes on too much
A Game Center CX cross AVGN would amazing.

No it wouldn't, Arino knows nothing about american culture other than superficialities, it would just be awkward
>>339926989
>Arino is awkward as all get out and humble
>AVGN being abrasive and off-putting
>both settle into natural gaming/honest personalities with light touches of their gimmicks
Yeah, it would never happen but it would be fun given the right circumstance.
Is james still a cuck?
Who remembers all of that stupid shit with the Irategamer? i'm more surprised that he makes videos still
BROWN BRICKS
>>339912414
Quality over quantity. Mike knows nothing about the former. He's trying to turn cinemassacre into game grumps or any other modern attention whore channel.
>>339929256
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYnM9hexHdA
listen to his story from his side, he did literally nothing wrong
For the longest time I thought that motherfucker Mike is the dude who was in the old 2000/2001 CGR videos with Lord Karnage.
Then I realized that dude is fat and old now.

WHERE DID THE HAIR GO
OOH
WHERE DID THE HAIR GO
>>339929256
lmfao, i forgot all about this guy. I use to watch his shit after i finished with angry nintendo nerd.
>>339929651
>>339929779
mark is fucking based, CGR is one of my oldest subs on youtube and i watch all of his stuff. genuinely funny, good dude. doesn't try to be edgy, doesn't fill his videos with memes, reviews obscure shit, 10/10
![37581-Spec_Ops_-_Ranger_Elite_[NTSC-U]-2[2].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/fb5SwtP.jpg "37581-Spec_Ops_-_Ranger_Elite_[NTSC-U]-2[2].jpg")
>>339930326
My only remark is that his reviews are always too short, and he dislikes some rather shit things in games.
>disliked Initial D's OST
>disliked entire Syphon Filter 2 because it was "too hard" when it was in fact genuinely challenging , they gave the whole game a shit review because they were too casual
Hands down best and only not shit reviewer for sure tho.
>>339931002
he definitely has some weird tastes, but i like that about him. he doesn't just parrot what the popular opinion is and forms his own, even if they're occasionally a bit off-base. i wish more game reviewers did that. i'd rather have a bunch of disparate-yet-genuine opinions than colluding reviews for game publisher jewmonies.
>>339930326
CGR has been shit for a long time now
>>339929256
Do you think it is true that James stole his shtick and bullied him?
>>339931196
What makes him stand out even after almost two decades is that his videos are, at least they seem to me to be, more or less unscripted. He just blurts out what he thinks, he uses simple sentences, genuinely comfy to listen. Scripted shit on youtube is the absolute worst, try hard, cringy shit ever. Especially about video games.
Also, dude had tenacity to play through Front Mission 5 in japanese before the translation. Gotta admire his love for sRPGs.
>>339931337
I don't think Rolf is really a bully outside of his I'M SO ANGRY ABOUT NOTHING persona.
>>339931313
the channel went a bit downhill once he started pimping his comics and stuff really hard, but his game reviews are still good.
>>339931341
yeah, he's just really likable, too. i'd share a beer with him any day.
>>339931337
Nah. What happened is that he lost some AVGN contest more than a decade ago and he's still pissed about it, so he made things up to portray himself as a victim.
>>339929256
I just checked his channel and his videos are getting around 10k views each now.
He used to be the most popular channel. Why does he even still bother?
I fucking hate Mike
>"put a shit joke in there, there's gotta be a shit joke"
>edits videos to try to make himself seem knowlegable and cool
>censors people in the comments
Such a fucking cunt. Based James deserves a better friend.
Anythings better than Ryan

dude just listen or shut up, archfiend, a former AVGN fanboy, and irate has interesting stories to tell that might change your perspective
Or just dont watch it
>>339935773
who the shit would sit through that
>>339935773
I watched it, and it's a whole lot of bullshit.
It's 40 minutes of him being salty over something that happened a decade ago and lying to make himself seem like a victim.
>>339935773
Rolfe existed before irate gamer.
Is Mike a good bull?
>>339916187
pat is a fucking cringelord

>>339920148
mike is avgn you dolt, all the games there were his and he writes the show

>>339921119
Hard, thick inches
>>339929651
I'm not going to bother watching the whole thing, but the Outnerd the Nerd thing is completely bullshit.
The rules did not state you had to do what he did, it stated you had to be unique, which he obviously isn't. The winner was HVGN, whose shtick was that he did the opposite of AVGN. instead of reviewing shitty old games he reviewed old lesser known games.
He doesn't even attempt to provide evidence for the contest to be rigged, aside from 'someone said so'.
He lost because his videos are shit.
>>339936612
Fuck off Mike
>>339929256
I messaged Irate Gamer in like 2007-2008 back when YouTube had a messaging feature. He said James and him had talked before and both found it super funny. They were gonna make something to address it or a video together or something, but they lived too far away. All around pretty chill guy wish YouTube saved the chat logs so I could find the conversation.
Casual and insecure as fuck
He edits out when he fails repeatedly at a game like with tiny toons just now
>>339939832
He has beaten plenty of hard games on stream.
>>339939986
beat THIS!
*unzips dick*
>>339939986
Doesnt invalidate what I said at all.
He barely knows shit about any game made after 2000
>>339940047
>Doesnt invalidate what I said at all.
Except that it does.
>>339940113
>339940113
No it doesnt, he is a casual that doesnt know anything about the modern industry and insecure because he edits out stuff when he uploads his live streams
>>339940164
>'He is shit at video games'
>'He has beaten plenty of hard games on steam'
>'No, he's shit at video games'
???
>>339940561
>>'He is shit at video games'
I never said that.
>>339940617
That is clearly what you were saying when you said he edits his mistakes out to not seem like a casual.
>>339940802
No, I said he is a casual because his knowledge about videogames is really lacking, the fact he edits out whenever he fails at a game and also adds stuff to correct any mistakes he could have made or said reveals his extremely insecure side.
He wont even call his gf by name on the streams.
>>339940905
>He wont even call his gf by name on the streams.
Gee, I wonder why.
>>339941047
Insecure someone will steal her away I guess.
You cant track down a person by a first name alone anymore than with its face
>Elmo in Grouchland
>LOOK AT HOW CRINGY AND STUPID THIS CHILDREN'S MOVIE IS
Mike is shit
>>339941174
>You cant track down a person by a first name alone
You most definitely can since you have Mike's full name.
>>339941554
And even if you did, so what?
If she is afraid of stalkers just dont appear at all in the videos, its clear its all mike doing the wanting to not reveal her name, she is likely ok with it
>>339919984
/v/ and /tv/ were absolutely serious about the cuck meme. it's why it sucked so hard. He didn't deserve it. James has always been a nice guy who just wants to put out content he enjoys for his fans and doesn't give a shit who likes it or who doesn't. it took the Ghostbusters video for most people to see that. Hell, I doubt he gives a fuck about any backlash for the video anyway. He just wanted to talk about a series he's passionate about and tell people to vote with their wallets if they don't want the content, an idea that's somehow been lost today's society, where if you don't want to pay for a product you don't like, you're entitled. Which is why video games fucking blow now.
I think the Troma episode really set people off and got them to give up on his videos. Which is understandable, it was really bad. But I don't think James gave a fuck, bullshitting with Kaufman was probably his dream. The stuff after that has been pretty alright though.
>>339941663
Considering the kind of people on the internet it's entirely understandable why you wouldn't want your name out there.
Mike is not a bad person but he is so fucking childish and immature and Im not talking about his cursing but also he is always trying to come on top of others and seem cool, making sure to erase his past if it makes him look bad like the elmo and minecraft reviews
Even fucking nostalgia critic didnt remove brother of the joker, he admitted it was bad and moved on
Really a manchild with an ego that can be easily shattered
As others have said very very insecure guy
>>339941764
The movie is why 4chan 'betrayed' James. /tv/ especially was pissed because for a long time James was considered their guy who was far better than the likes of Doug, but then the movie proved to the world that James really is the same as Doug only with higher budget. Then this coincided with le cuck meme and it went from there.
>>339941773
Ok lets say her name is Sally
What could crazies do with that that they cant do already.
Bootsy is the best. He's the only person I've ever enjoyed watching play through a game like he did with Battletoads. Incredibly relaxing vid, just gameplay and talking about the game, no bullshit or trying too hard to be funny. He should do more.
>>339941843
And also the way he fuels the 10inch meme because its a positive thing that will give him more views in the long run. And being the child that he is Im sure it fuels his ego like nothing else that people are saying he has a big penor.
Its hard not to hate him really.
>>339929256I used to watch his videos along side AVGN back in 2007I also used to watch nostalgia critic and even sat through all 3 of those god fucking awful TGWTG movies.Surely I wasn't the only one. right?
>>339920485
the doublevision colecovision part 2 intro with the massive ac adapter is one of the greatest moments of avgn
also plumbers don't wear ties obviously
James > bootsy > ryan > mike
>>339942372
I still watch NG so I have something in the background to listen to.
It's getting harder though, I have to skip half his videos nowadays because of the extremely unfunny skits.
>>339936806
Can I get a sauce?
>>339909434
He has a big dick, so nothing else in life matters. At the end of the day he doesn't give a shit, if he makes a bad review, or if he has to leech off James to get by, he'll always have a 10 inch penis to smack chick around with
>>339942437
unlike the rest of them, ryan is actually competent at modern games
watching either mike or james play any game made after 1994 is cringeworthy
>>339920485
Many of the classic console episodes like Sega CD/32X, Jaguar, CDI, colecovision/intellivison where he goes over multiple games from the platform were great.
My all time favorite would have to probably be Action 52, and maybe the Castlevania videos since I liked listening him talk about it.
>ghostbusters video now has nearly 2 million views, his non-avgn videos generally only get around 200-400k
>it has 95% likes
