Need help identifying this old YouTube game reviewer!

Post by Lodestar »

A little backstory: back in 2008 or 2009, this guy used to make "reviews" for a lot of classic games, I think he was Canadian and his name probably started with a K. Whenever I'd look up a review for a game, I'd usually see one of his, he seriously had a ton of 'em. I would even venture to say hundreds...except the vast majority of his videos involved him playing a game for only a few minutes with asinine bro commentary, never actually reviewing the games in detail.

I came across one for Blackthorne (which he refers to as "Black Throne") and recorded the audio because it cracked me up--I've had it for YEARS. I wanted to see if the video was still around, but he deleted his channel and all of his reviews. With the audio clip as the last remnant of this guy, I wanted to remake his video as I remembered it.

If anyone knows who this guy was, let me know as I'm curious! For some reason, my brain tells me his username was "Kolibri" (like the game), but I'm not so sure about that. I can't be the only person who's come across this guy, because his reviews were mostly for retro games, help me out Racket Boy.

Ah, thanks, but you may regret doing that because I hardly upload gaming-related stuff these days, mostly music.


No one knows who this guy is? I'm guessing he was active mainly in 2007, seeing as the recording is from mid-2008, which is when I made my own channel. :(
