I'm not surprised, high school fucked me up. And yes, rewatching them he did like them. And well, what did you think of Killer7? I love that game, it's one of my favorite games of all time. The comic books are pretty decent too.

Three years later, and I'm happy to say that I still enjoy watching James do his thing. Oddly enough, I now prefer watching his non-Nerd videos, especially the James and Mike Play series and his random stuff on Cinemassacre, though I consider the first 70 AVGN videos to be classics. Does anyone plan on watching his movie upon release?

I've always liked the show as it kind of reminds me of myself as a kid. I was definitely an angry gamer, throwing controllers around when I died. Ha!

I think this guy has gotten a lot of the younger crowd interested in retro games. He seems like a pretty nice guy.

Very very very late reply, but I really liked Killer 7. It's a game I think everyone should at least check out, because they aren't really going to ever play anything quite like it.

Considering he hasn't logged on in nearly a year, I figure this is a moot point, AQ.

Man I knew I was playing a bit loose replying to such an old post, but I could've sworn he was still active.

For the past couple of years the release date has been "Sometime".

They're done shooting everything now at least according to the site. Working on VFX now.
