too bad it sucked, thats what happens when you make a new video just to advertise a shitty mobile game while telling everyone to not play a shitty game, oh the irony. I liked the phone smash, should had punctured the vintage speaker as well and say "ooooh .... vintage"
For all the people complaining about the mobile game ad, UA-cam is really the one to blame here. Don't hate AVGN, hate UA-cam for not being able to run itself competently.
@@robertbernard7844 Not really. Only if James Rolfe acted like an asshole. Most UA-camrs I know just give Patreon supporters early access and a credit. You've obviously dealt with some idiots who think their UA-cam shit is worth money.

The ad at the beginning has nothing to do with him selling out or becoming irrelevant. He has to do it because Google has made channels like these nearly impossible to profit from otherwise. Have you people not been paying attention to the ad shitstorm that's occurred on this site all year?
One thing that the nerd didn't mention is that the Gamecube version had a pretty infamous and mysterious game breaking glitch that pretty prevented you from playing most of the game and it works like this. If you would start the game without a memory card or stick in your gamecube, the game would loop you back to the middle of level 1 if you got near the end of level 1. Alot of people apparantly had this happening and pretty much never played the game, lucky them.
It's not like he needs either, he makes hundreds a video, he is just being greedy and I would rather have him advertise anything other than this mobile garbage mtx games, that's all time low.
Please make a patreon! Me and many others would happily donate to you in this time of ad-crisis. You have made all of us laugh over the many years, and it's the least we can do without having to watch a depressing mobile game ad in the beginning. Please read this!
BronchoKyle if you read my comment, you would realize me and many others are offering him a way to get more money more reliably than a mobile game ad. The little thing in the beginning isn't really too bothersome, but we want him to know there is an alternative!
7:49 Right now in Mortal Kombat 11 one of Sindel's attacks has her breaking her opponent's face with her ass. No I'm not joking, watch her reveal trailer.
I liked the video, glad to see some more AVGN. To be honest, the Vikings mobile game looks like the typical exploitative "pay too win"/"pay to not wait" trash that is so prevalent on in the mobile market. I would actually rather play the Charlie's Angels game.
Hi! I dunno, I feel like UA-cam has changed so much in the past few years. I'm not sure I would know what to do to make sure I still stand out. Thanks for asking, happy holidays!
Skip To My Lou You could've just done 'Herald Times' or some name that doesn't exist. There's more than one way to skin a cat, and I feel they chose a way that was silly.
Whoa, that was a really jarring ad at the beginning. Can't really blame him though. Guy's gotta make a living. Pretty incredible how quickly we've been getting these episodes! This is the rate of peak production from back in the Gametrailers days. Since Halloween we've gotten 4 episodes! Hell, it might be even faster than the Gametrailers days.
Agreed. I clicked this video and was shocked to see James shilling for some shitty mobile game. Don't get me wrong, I have mad respect for his content and for him as a person. Patreon is def the way to go.
If the content is good, I don't care about the sponsor thing. I even understand, seeing what youtube has become... Also, another episode so soon? Great!
Also, let's not forget that James' got a daughter, and is wating for a second child. Even though he's an internet celebrity, I dont suppose videos and donations alone get him a lot of money. Everyone's gotta eat.
papuwa papuwa Dude, thanks to the sponsorships he can say all the asses and fucks that he wants, imagine if you'd hear a _beep_ in between every bad word to prevent getting demonetized, you wouldn't like that right?
I know... but it seems to me he could make the commercial in his actual style instead of this more official shilly way. I think the commercial would be actually more successfull if he did it in the nerd style. Exposure would be good either way and people would understand it even if he said the advertized game was shit. Hell, if he actually made fun of that mobile game instead of praising it I would have actually checked it out! Now I won't and the video gets downvote because I don't like this style. I mean... I'm actually more likely to check out that ps2 game than the mobile game now...
It's painful to see AVGN read a script for a shitty ass mobile game but if theres one person I will just happily sit through it to get the content it's him.
Tyrone Woodley holding a monster aluminum can while standing in the ring , that really looks awkward, not a video game nerd talking about a video game.
I had a very shitty day today, exhausted from work... I got home and watched the AVGN and voila, everything is good now! Classic intro and everything! Life is good! Thanks James!!!!!
Yeah at this point Nintendo 64 and the PSOne are as retro as SNES and Genesis. To James, who is close to 40 years old, they aren't, but to many of his fans who grew up in the 90s they are, and he probably realizes that.
To be honest, you could probably get away with calling some xbox 360 games retro at this point. The system is 12 years old this year. Wouldn't be surprised if we got a Perfect Dark Zero episode sometime in the near future.
I was told that vintage only applies to cars and I think that's 27 years. An antique for the record applies to Furniture and it takes a 100 years for a piece to gain that status.
The promo was painful. Mostly because I really respect AVGN and James, but I do not respect skinner box pay to win games. I mean maybe I'm wrong and Vikings is a great game (doesn't look it though), and maybe the money was awesome, but a promo of this type just didn't feel right.
This right here. James, if you need the money, ask the community. I'm sure I speak for a large majority of us when I say, we will gladly throw money at you to keep the content as good as we've come to know it to be. Crowd funding, m8. Hell, we'd throw the money just to spite fucking mobile pay to win games, because mobile pay to win games are AAAASSSSSSS!!!!
Screwface Romeo Fam it's not a joke, it's an observation made by all Gamers. What are u talking about?? Super Bunny Hop mentioned it, as well as many others, like YongYEA, AND every gamer who played MGS. It's not plagiarism if other ppl think the same thing in a different context
And Carzy Taxi. Clearly somebody else was writing the script, or he is just trying to make modern game references to keep the whole episode consistent, or to appeal to a younger generation (see mobile game ad :) ).
He *does* follow modern games, and understands franchises. He did to a MG NES game a while back when Snake Eater was already out. Its called research. Also, unless you are living under a rock, you'd know Crazy Taxi as well as when the Simpsons ripped it off for their awful game.
One of the most iconic scenes in any video game, how can you not! I've actually seen a few other people at least hum the tune if they play a game where they climb a long ladder.
Jesus Christ James, you're really pushing these videos out quickly. We really appreciate all of your hard work man, it makes some the best content on youtube for a whole lot of us to enjoy.
Glad to see the Crazy Taxi Arrow is still finding work. It's tough for arrows to find video game work now a days.

The fact that UA-cam continues to lose money every year for Google is more than enough proof.
The classic intro.. don’t ever change it
Agreed. It's perfect.
It's so iconic. It makes you want to go back to really old episodes you haven't seen in a long time.

That glitch is pretty much doing you a huge favour of playing the game. The game itself is so bad that the NA version of the Gamecube game was cancelled
It's a feature. This is how they implemented the Demo Mode.
Even avgn needs to use sponsors now, thanks to youtube demonitising vids.

You were probably thinking of Jontron.
Jontron did this too

The ad at the beginning has nothing to do with him selling out or becoming irrelevant. He has to do it because Google has made channels like these nearly impossible to profit from otherwise. Have you people not been paying attention to the ad shitstorm that's occurred on this site all year?
Agreed. Just be happy he's still producing and still providing entertainment. Ugh.

Hey man, he's got bills to pay.
I like the direction of where AVGN is going, reviewing modern bad games is still good content
Would a gamecube game still be considered modern? Even Sonic 06 came out 11 years ago.
Yeah at this point Nintendo 64 and the PSOne are as retro as SNES and Genesis. To James, who is close to 40 years old, they aren't, but to many of his fans who grew up in the 90s they are, and he probably realizes that.
"Here's a game that is literally ass!".. love you James. Never change.

Of all games to showcase here, HOLY WEBBING NOSTALGIA I never thought Spider-Man™ the Movie Game would be here. I salute you AVGN for that.
I honestly don't care that AVGN is taking Sponsored videos. If that means more Nerd, more power to ya!
7:21 Hey its lucy liu, i like your movies Ugh AAAAAAAAH
Merry Christmas to the Cinemassacre crew! Thanks for all the laughs
"You follow the arrow from crazy taxi" LMFAO one of the best episodes in recent memory 😂😂😂
The old theme song!!! ♥♥♥
James, how were you able to afford the man himself: Charlie the Voicebox?
He's actually pretty cheap
No, Vikings: War of Clans is, in fact, shit.
Andrew Kim that's harsh
At least it’s not some certain legends but yea I agree with you
Don't overexert yourself James, but We are all incredibly grateful so much constant Nerd content!
That Metal Gear Solid reference was so well timed. Thanks again NERD. Love the AVGN series
Bossman WilderMEZ he stole that joke from JonTron
Screwface Romeo Fam it's not a joke, it's an observation made by all Gamers. What are u talking about??
Super Bunny Hop mentioned it, as well as many others, like YongYEA, AND every gamer who played MGS.
It's not plagiarism if other ppl think the same thing in a different context
Screwface Romeo *Dunkey
Screwface Romeo it’s literally the most iconic scene in the series next to the microwave hallway. Everyone has made that ladder connection.
kylele23 Most iconic scene in the series?? Top 20...maybe, but when I think the Metal Gear series, it's not a top 10 scene that comes to mind.
that Charlie thing is actually in my house, theres like 5 or 4, but they dont work
Puhuhuhuhuhuhu.
@@TheDwarvenDefender what
There's something special about hearing the Nerd mention MGS3.
What a thrill...
And Carzy Taxi. Clearly somebody else was writing the script, or he is just trying to make modern game references to keep the whole episode consistent, or to appeal to a younger generation (see mobile game ad :) ).
With darkness and silence through the night!
He *does* follow modern games, and understands franchises. He did to a MG NES game a while back when Snake Eater was already out. Its called research. Also, unless you are living under a rock, you'd know Crazy Taxi as well as when the Simpsons ripped it off for their awful game.
One of the most iconic scenes in any video game, how can you not! I've actually seen a few other people at least hum the tune if they play a game where they climb a long ladder.
James sounds so polite when he’s not the nerd
Its great being sponsored, now he can swear in AVGN fashion without being hurt by demonetization.
exactly, so support your favorite channels on Patreon, even a buck can help keep your fave channels from becoming "family friendly".
Not by a mobile game corporation. He must let us sponsor him, not the vile venom of the video game market, mobile games.
Hey it's a Lucy Liu, I love your movies... AHHHHHRGH!!
7:20.
Jesus Christ James, you're really pushing these videos out quickly. We really appreciate all of your hard work man, it makes some the best content on youtube for a whole lot of us to enjoy.
Start a patreon!
honestly it's about time he did that
You better watch out don't give these games a try. You better watch out he's telling you why. The Angry Video Game Nerd is here. 🎅🎄🎁
Where?
