How has James Rolf (aka AVGN) influenced you as a gamer?

Board James is actually my least favorite thing Rolfe has done. I've watched every AVGN episode multiple times, my daughter and I have seen every episode of YKWB, I've watched about 75% of James and Mike Play, but only about 25% of Board James. It's okay. I just prefer everything else a lot more.

Mike's grown on me a fair bit. It's cool that they do these different things every once awhile and it's not just the AVGN shtick nowadays. The James and Mike LP's are awesome. Just a little frustrating because they're not that great at a lot of them though lol...

I like the fact that they struggle with many games.

TAS and perfect game runthroughs have gotten kind of stale.

Plus I'm not so great at video games myself.

I maintain that Board James is the best stuff James has ever done. It's great cheesy fun. I enjoyed the hell out of the latest episode.

Unfortunately that is the LAST Board James ep.

The Early BJ stuff I really liked. After Dream Phone it got insane. It's good, but I like plain Vanilla reviews of my bored games.

This new box art stuff is hilarious.

realized this is a resurrected topic but just chiming in...

while i watched a fairly good amount of avgn episodes, the whole "angry" thing just made me tired of watching any other youtube video game review video (including avgn eventually). its a really tired shtick nowadays and the content creators are usually on it for just some YT money or maybe some convention pass.

You obviously haven't seen the Seaman episode.

James doesn't do AVGN much at all anymore, which was a good move. The newer episodes are a lot more elaborate and well written. It's come a long ways.

I love all the additional content him, Mike, and Bootsy do. I wish James would stop hanging out with the Nostalgic Critic though. Can't stand him...
