Lazy Game Reviews I like your channel because you have a very familiar personality. You remind me of some childhood friends from back in my childhood. Did I mention I was a child at one point in my life? Since I am from the future I must give you warning. Never review the Atari 2600 Superman game. :)
Lazy Game Reviews I am from a more distant future, you absolutely HAVE to review Superman for the Atari 2600, otherwise Google will take over the world with cyborgs. I know that it sounds weird and slightly illogical, but I can't tell you details, otherwise I might accidentally creating a time paradox! Stay away from Bad Rats tho, your review of that one will cause World War III and the annihilation of 99.53% of the Earth's population by Aliens.
I remember playing Test Drive 5 at a friend's house when I was younger. We would put in the cheats for invulnerability and stopping opponents and making your car jump when you honked the horn. We'd laugh hysterically for minutes at being able to bounce around the map thanks to the ridiculous physics and the opponents couldn't do anything. The soundtrack for that game kicked ass. And it was ridiculously easy to mod the vehicles because their models and stats were packed in individual zip files
You're easily my favourite reviewer here on UA-cam. Calm voice, chill attitude, quirky comments, little to no curse words and responds to pretty much all fan messages. All i can say is, keep up the good work.
Lazy Game Reviews you also separate your self from the first yeah the 1st game reveiwer on youtube or at least the one that made a diffence the AVGN but your LGR and your both good i like the way you both r and well both the attaudes like good cop bad cop.
It's funny how much it sounded like you were acting during this one whereas you generally sound a lot more natural during your reviews. Congrats on 5 years of amazing gaming content!
Always loved the cynical bitterness of your old writing style, such as your assumptions videos that bashed the sims, they're funny. But love the new style and feels more like an actual review. Here's to many more years.
I really miss your 4:3 aspect ratio videos, it really suits your style since you're reviewing some of the classic games. congrats on your 5th anniversary!
congrats!!! ive been watching for the past few years, i have no clue how i found you, but i remember playing the official LGR playlist part 1 and watching everything then going through part 2, hell nowadays i STILL rewatch those playlists (btw thank you for making such organized playlists, they truely help out). i swear with the constant weekly content and more oddware and the thrift adventures, your getting better and better! not to mention you still take the time to comment to peoples questions and stuff, thats pretty awesome
Good idea for an anniversary video :) I haven't been subscribed to you for that long, but I have watched a lot of your old videos, and it's interesting to see how much your delivery has changed. Anyway, keep being awesome!
happy 5 years!! i remember i subscribed when you reviewed commander keen 4 years ago. You have a really great and soothing voice. At the end of the day I like to listen you talk about games from my phone while i fall asleep
I can understand why you went for the 17 Worst Games video instead. Writing this script got you all riled up about bad games, and so you started looking up all the bad games you could find and made a list and this script just got pushed aside.
Happy Anniversary! I just love watching your videos even though I'm pretty young and most of this stuff I had no idea about when I was a kid, its really fun to watch and learn about all the games you review. And I can't get enough of your commentary. Haha :]
Damn it! For your anniversary video, I was hoping for a 5 hour loop of *"Practice Mooooode"* being said over and over. Oh well, there's always next year.
Congrats on you're five year anniversary, hope you're around for at least five more. I have really enjoyed your sims 3 reviews. It was a big help in deciding which expansion and stuff packs were worth buying and which ones not to buy. With the sims 4 coming soon, I look forward to your witty commentary. Of course I am looking forward to the sims 4 versions of Duke Nukem, and LGR sims.
Dude, only been watchin' your show for the past year & I've been hooked since. Congratulations on your 5th bruddha!!! As long as you keep makin'em, we'll keep watchin'em!!!
Happy Anniversary! Like most of your viewers the first video I saw from you was one of your sims 3 videos and I just loved your humor. Luckily I happen to like old games and hardware so I spent an afternoon watching your videos and subscribed. Now I've seen about 90% of them and loved every minute :D
Congrats on the 5 year milestone! Recently got into watching a lot of your vids, highly entertaining :) hope you'll continue for a long time. (your sims vids even made me want to play ts3.. argh :D)
Thanks for helping me revisit the PC Games of my youth! Watching your show brings me back to when I had a 286 Pulstar Turbo 16 (which had a turbo button on the case) Thanks for the shareware memories
Congrats on 5 years. I forget how I found your channel but loved it ever since. You make me want to go get some old pcs to play these classic never released on console games. I have some I'd love to play even for first time but sadly no way to run them. Keep the vids coming and if DVD is in your future you got one sold here.
I thoroughly enjoyed that, and I thought it was great. Was nice to hear the original intro again. Though I still like to watch your old stuff occasionally. Long time watcher, will always keep watching. Keep it up! :)
cool experiment, always interesting seeing your own personal growth as a writer. I often re-read my older articles and am horrified at what I thought was passable. Its all part of the process! Love the channel, Happy 5th!
I don't even PLAY PC games, and never have, yet your videos are so good that I get excited whenever there's a new one on my feed. Keep up the excellent work dude and here's to another 5 five years!
You really have improved a lot in your style and writing with these videos; as a longtime viewer I've always appreciated the quality of your work but its neat to see just how far you've come. Also, hell yeah reprise of Vaxeen 4U!!!
I'm been following you for about a year and a half now, having originally come across this channel through a Sims game review. The way you look at games and various hardware is hilarious, unique and quite fair. From the moment I saw that one video, I started going through all your old videos and watched every single one. Not kidding. This older script is a little on the angry side, and the insults are a little on the side of loose and fast. It didn't make it any less interesting though - the puns were aplenty and amusing. xP
Congrats on 5 years! I personally have been watching for 2 years and I love all your content. Great to hear that you are making money off it and keep it up!
I'm so jealous of what you've been able to create. You're pretty much the reason why I've gotten back into retro gaming. My brother Andy, who runs retrocomputers.eu, is currently getting the components together for me for my first dos machine. Recently I've started collecting handhelds and consoles too with around 80 games now in my collection. Favourite videos are probably your DOS reviews and thrifting (so annoyed that we don't really have those kind of charity shops in the UK). Again, thanks for all the great videos! They're just great :D
You can sometimes get an old, dusty PC that you can plop a copy of MS-DOS on from a "recycling center", or at least get some used components for them for a couple of quid. I used to work in one in Finland, and I built myself a system from the working components pulled from various PCs going trough and heading to the processing plant. Even managed to rescue an Amiga and a Commodore 64 from the maws of certain destruction. But that was a long time ago. The PCs coming into those now may be a bit modern fro retro gaming, but they might have some parts in storage or the occasional Pentium or 486 that comes in from someones' attic. But bear in mind that what they are often very old hardware so the mileage you get out of them may vary. And one more thing, always, always crack the case open and clean the case. And reseat all components. Also, it is a good idea to keep some spare parts. I wish you good luck with your retro gaming hobby. :)
CONGRATULATIONS, Clint!! You deserve it, man, you're awesome. I love your videos. And Test Drive 4 was my second car game! (and I'm a crazy, major gearhead/car nut now. Actually, have been since I was born...) Best wishes, Arthur.
I genuinely have no idea why youtube showed me this channel back in 2011 when i found it, but damm im glad it did, have been following it since then, and i am just grateful this exists, thanks for all the awsomeness clint, and be sure I am excitedly waiting for what is to come
Geez, I've been watching you for four and a half years now. Hard to believe that my interest in the Sega CD led me to your videos, but not hard to believe at all that I stuck around for more! Keep up the good work, Clint....Because you can.
This was an awesome video! Its great to see how far you have come. One thing I do miss is the old intro ( mostly for that awesome piece of music). Keep up the good work!
YES! Its that awesome intro song again. You grace UA-cam with your charm and wit, so thanks for the wicked videos, man! They really helped me through a rough patch in my life. Here's to many more!
Congrats, man! I only found you about two and a half years ago so I can't claim hipster status as someone who has been here from the beginning, but I always look forward to a new review from you. Always found the name kind of funny, considering how you show off the boxes, manuals, look into and explain history behind the development and companies of the games, explain genre conventions and compare them to contemporary games. That's anything BUT lazy, and part of the reason I love your vids so much - you're clearly passionate about this stuff and I usually end up learning something. Here's to five more!
Perhaps its the games that are lazy and not the reviewer. Look at them sitting there on the shelf feeling all smug about themselves, just because they're classics.

Happu anniversary! I discovered you after wanting to buy some sims 3 Eps and you just so happen to have everyone of them covered. I thought they were so informative and funny i must gave watched them all 2-3 times while downloading the games.
Keep up the good work. One of my fav channels so far. Its dat voice. Loving the retro reviews. The Salve Zero review made me dig for my copy again so I could play it.
i started watching your channel back in 2010, i was 6 years old at the time. With your channel i discovered the "amazing world of old computers". Now, 8 years later, i'm still watching your channel.. i just want to say "Thank You" for this amazing content.
I noticed the joystick in the background while you were sitting there. And I remember getting a lot of compatibility issues trying to get old(ish) joysticks to work with the newer software. I'd imagine the same holds true getting new joysticks to work on old systems. Think there might ever be a time when you will touch upon the subject of joysticks and such peripherals in general? I remember them being a much larger part of computer and gaming culture back in the day than they are these days. Either way, congratulations on lasting five years and turning this hobby into a full-time job that can support you. Here is hoping to many more.
Whoa, that was like a blast from the past! I was always curious to get it from a thrift shop near work, it was for PS1 but at least I ain't regretting it now! Awesome vid!
Your videos are by far the most interesting, entertaining, informative and original in the realm of gaming on youtube. Thanks, and keep up the good work!
Congratulations Clint! In spite of your 'Lazy' tag, your videos are well structured, researched and written. I'm glad this has turned from a hobby into your job-hobby. A lot of people probably don't realise the effort you put in, but I can imagine it's more than they think. I've been a subscriber and avid watcher for a few years now, and will continue to be so in the future. Cheers.
I'm so happy about this. I missed the old intro! That was not so long ago and it already made me nostalgic. I'm so glad that the show is going better than ever, you deserve it. Happy five years, Clint! PS: Sorry for stopping the spanish subtitles! :C I had some trouble and i don't have currently the time to do them, but when i finally find the time to make them, they will be back. Cheers from Argentina
This was my first racing game experience when I was a kid. Didn't get a console until I was a bit older, but my parents always let me play games on the PC, this was my first game after playing Tonka games and other things like that, always had a soft spot for it regardless of how it looks and plays compared to newer/better stuff. I certainly had fun playing at least.
Congratulations and thanks for "reviving" these old classics. I remember playing Test Drive 4 when I was a kid, I guess one of my first games ever. Really liked the soundtrack.
Discovered you through RetrowaresTV's The Video Games Years (during the now-mythical chubby long-haired bearded era). I seem to remember watching a video of yours shortly thereafter where you explored some creepy abandoned buildings. A weird mall and others. Didn't even have anything to do with video games. Very strange. Haven't really looked back since. You're one of my all-time faves for sure. Keep it up. Right up. PS. My favorite vid of yours is probably the LGR Plays Goat Simulator. Hearing you cracking up uncontrollably every ten seconds was totes worth it yo
@@karlimo4034 do a little research before responding to a six year old comment. All of the standard definition videos were edited to video tapes before upload. Obviously he has been uploading longer than you've been alive.
@@dwarf365 Asking you is my research and it proved to be fruitful. I think he using tapes means that his video camera was VHS format, because back then you could skip VHS altogether by using your crappy webcam, your IPHONE 2 camera or your DVD videocamera like AVGN did. Windows Movie Maker and iMovie were out back then, you didn´t need VHS tech to edit stuff.
This was an interesting review. I can see how the dialog in your reviews is a little bit different, but still it fits in with all your reviews! I hope for 5 MORE years of videos.
I only re-discovered your channel recently, you seem to have a lot of great stuff up. And your commentary is always funny. The "LGR Thrift" series is always inspiring but I don't have that kind of cash and I can't drive so... I am stuck in my crappy town! -From a fairly new sub, but has been watching your reviews on The Sims stuff for a while!
Hi! Keep up what you're doing. You're really good at it. Ironically your videos aren't as lazy as the other reviews I've seen. Happy fifth Anniversary! ^^
I regularly watch your videos, because they are quite entertaining and I enjoy someone reviewing the games I played during my childhood. Just wanted to say thanks & keep em coming. :)
Congratulations on 5 years! This channel's come a long way since then in terms of video and audio quality, although I do miss the older intros! I didn't have much of a problem when I played the game, although the graphics are definitely terrible for the time, as were the cameras. The AI issues seem like exactly the same sort of thing newer NFS games started doing.
dang I think I found you as early as 2009 but didn't get really into it until like 2011. Glad to see after all these years you're still doing great! keep up the good work and I'll continue to fanboy on your comment section (and facebook)
I'm fairly new to your channel. What brought me to it was the Oddware segments you did. I really like seeing all the weird stuff I'd never heard of. The history videos you've done are also cool. If I'm not mistaken you did one on the history of PC game audio. Hopefully you'll do more along those lines at some point. Keep up the great work! I really love your laid back style.
Mate you are great. I've been looking for a long time for a gamer reviewer that can use little to no cuss words. It shows that you put a lot of thought into each video you make. Thank you.
I've found your channel a few weeks ago (actually it's been a month, I think. I'm not sure. Recently. Yeah, recently.) and I really liked what I found. Being an enthusiast of old hardware and software myself, your videos fills me with enjoyment. Like someone else said in the comments, you have a calm voice, chill attitude and little to no cursing. I really like when someone makes good content WITHOUT swearing all over it. It's good for a change to find someone who can make good stuff with keeping a good vocabulary at the same time. I hope you keep on more five more years then five more and so on. :) I just wish/hope that someday, since you mentioned you still got "a million" games to review, that you eventually makes a video on King of The Road (Hard Truck 2 King of the Road). That's still to this date my favorite truck driving game of all time and I really miss playing it. Sadly it is too old and my computer too new. It won't run. :c So yeah. Cheers!
I quite liked that old soda can intro. Congrats on 5 yeas! Although I have only been watching your videos and have subscribed for little over a week or more and I honestly don't really know how I found you (I think the first video I saw of yours was your review of Blood and 7th Guest I watched it a long time ago) Sill have to watch the last few of your MS-DOS game reviews I haven't watched yet, so better go do that. Looking forward to seeing what is next. I especially like your MS-DOS game reviews, thrifting and oddware videos.
I remember Test Drive 1 on the Amiga 500..was one of the hardest games. Your only view was from inside the car. Naturally due to hardware restrictions in 1988. It was a really nicely detailed interior, and different for each supercar, which was pretty awesome. It was also way more in the simulation category, with no assists. You were just sent out there to crash into cars more or less.
holy crap, I saw your atari 2600 review when it came out, and it's been 5 years? I hope you keep it going for at least another 76 years or so. Congrats Clint
Toshiba remote at 2:25? (yeah that's a weird thing to notice, but I have the same remote.) :P Congratulations on 5 years of LGR! Your videos always make me happy. :)
Congratulations!! You are awesome!! I dont even like games but I enjoy watching your non-sims videos. You definitely have mastered a way to channel your comments in a more comical way, although with the same unforgiving trurhfulness which I find enjoyable! All the best for the next five years and more, Clint!
Oddly enough, when a game review is so hyperbolically negative like this one, it makes me want to check the game out for myself and it's almost never as bad as people say.
I first found you about a couple of years ago when I was looking up on info of Disneys Coaster & since then I watched most of your videos. Sure watching this I got the nostalgic back when I first found you & looking thru the back catalogue of videos, which shows that this was in the spirit of your old videos, yet also it shows that you improved with 5 years of youtube behind you. It could be a good experiment if you remade this review & see what a Modern Clint can make out of this & compare.
Haven't been following you the entire 5 years....but on my days off I think I have caught up. I think I first came across your videos about a year ago because you did a collab with someone from TGWTG or someone on youtube mentioned you...either way it was a nice find and I always look forward to your work.
I remember when I descovered you (perhaps a year ago), I used to play your videos on my netbook only to falling asleep to your voice. Just becuase how calm it is and that I dont like falling asleep surrounded by a total silence
Woop, watching for 4 years. I'm glad to see this series getting better and awesome-er after all this time, always makes me smile to see one of these show up in my sub box. :D Also, I have recently looked back to when I was younger, yesterday in fact. I found a game I used to play called Alien X. It was terrible.
Wow man, that's pretty buzzy, I believe I've been watching your vids since 2010, so 4 years. I haven't watched any of your older stuff in a long time, I forgot how far you've come in this time! This review was pretty hilarious in it's own special way... but yeah, you've really improved a great deal in over-all production value. Anyway, keep up the great work Clint, I hope you'll be around for another 5 years, I know I'll still be watching if you are. Peace out
"It sucks because it blows".... best line of the day so far :D
Truly a quote for the ages. XD
Damn you! Was about to write the same thing!
But the logic and truth in the line can not be questioned ;D
The Bookieman Everyone will remember.
4:59 - Aliens from your anus? 0_o
"So why does it suck? Because it blows." True poetry there Clint.
Congrats on five years! Here's to five more!
The stripes on the Viper are not aligned! How did they fail to notice that! All they had to do was open the texture in frickin Paint and move the white stripes slightly to the side!
it's not that simple they would have to redo the entire texture
@@minsin56 NOT WITH A FRAME OVERLAY, they could of isolated the stripe location and implanted it easily, they got lazy, great game though played the shit out it back in the day
@@jhot2478 they did not know about that back then
ALL YOU HAD TO DO, WAS FIX THE DAMN TEXTURES PITBULL SYNDICATE
Happy 5 years but oddly enough I been watching you six years. I am writing this from the future.
Heh, well I actually have been doing random videos on UA-cam for longer than 5 years, so it's possible :)
Lazy Game Reviews I like your channel because you have a very familiar personality. You remind me of some childhood friends from back in my childhood.

I am from the FUTURE FUTURE, 10 years is very possible and I look forwards to seeing what will happen for a 10th anniversary video!
Only found you recently through your Thief 2014 review... went back and caught up on everything I could since. Keep up the good work man!
I remember playing Test Drive 5 at a friend's house when I was younger. We would put in the cheats for invulnerability and stopping opponents and making your car jump when you honked the horn. We'd laugh hysterically for minutes at being able to bounce around the map thanks to the ridiculous physics and the opponents couldn't do anything.
The soundtrack for that game kicked ass. And it was ridiculously easy to mod the vehicles because their models and stats were packed in individual zip files

Keep up the good work, Clint....Because you can.
This was an awesome video! Its great to see how far you have come. One thing I do miss is the old intro ( mostly for that awesome piece of music). Keep up the good work!
YES! Its that awesome intro song again.
You grace UA-cam with your charm and wit, so thanks for the wicked videos, man! They really helped me through a rough patch in my life. Here's to many more!
wow its june 29th, happy early 7th anniversary
Thank you!
Man, I can't believe I'm subscribed for 2 years on this channel. Keep it up with the good job!
Congrats, man! I only found you about two and a half years ago so I can't claim hipster status as someone who has been here from the beginning, but I always look forward to a new review from you.
Always found the name kind of funny, considering how you show off the boxes, manuals, look into and explain history behind the development and companies of the games, explain genre conventions and compare them to contemporary games. That's anything BUT lazy, and part of the reason I love your vids so much - you're clearly passionate about this stuff and I usually end up learning something.
Here's to five more!
Perhaps its the games that are lazy and not the reviewer. Look at them sitting there on the shelf feeling all smug about themselves, just because they're classics.

Happu anniversary! I discovered you after wanting to buy some sims 3 Eps and you just so happen to have everyone of them covered. I thought they were so informative and funny i must gave watched them all 2-3 times while downloading the games.
Wow You really have come such a long way from those days. That really was a fun video. Also Congrats on doing this for 5 years already!
Keep up the good work. One of my fav channels so far. Its dat voice. Loving the retro reviews. The Salve Zero review made me dig for my copy again so I could play it.
i started watching your channel back in 2010, i was 6 years old at the time. With your channel i discovered the "amazing world of old computers". Now, 8 years later, i'm still watching your channel.. i just want to say "Thank You" for this amazing content.
I noticed the joystick in the background while you were sitting there. And I remember getting a lot of compatibility issues trying to get old(ish) joysticks to work with the newer software. I'd imagine the same holds true getting new joysticks to work on old systems.
Think there might ever be a time when you will touch upon the subject of joysticks and such peripherals in general? I remember them being a much larger part of computer and gaming culture back in the day than they are these days.
Either way, congratulations on lasting five years and turning this hobby into a full-time job that can support you. Here is hoping to many more.
Whoa, that was like a blast from the past!
I was always curious to get it from a thrift shop near work, it was for PS1 but at least I ain't regretting it now!
Awesome vid!
Man, look at little Clint thinking he had already been doing this for a long time
Your videos are by far the most interesting, entertaining, informative and original in the realm of gaming on youtube. Thanks, and keep up the good work!
Congratulations Clint! In spite of your 'Lazy' tag, your videos are well structured, researched and written. I'm glad this has turned from a hobby into your job-hobby. A lot of people probably don't realise the effort you put in, but I can imagine it's more than they think. I've been a subscriber and avid watcher for a few years now, and will continue to be so in the future. Cheers.
I'm so happy about this. I missed the old intro! That was not so long ago and it already made me nostalgic. I'm so glad that the show is going better than ever, you deserve it. Happy five years, Clint!
PS: Sorry for stopping the spanish subtitles! :C I had some trouble and i don't have currently the time to do them, but when i finally find the time to make them, they will be back. Cheers from Argentina
This was my first racing game experience when I was a kid. Didn't get a console until I was a bit older, but my parents always let me play games on the PC, this was my first game after playing Tonka games and other things like that, always had a soft spot for it regardless of how it looks and plays compared to newer/better stuff. I certainly had fun playing at least.
Congratulations and thanks for "reviving" these old classics. I remember playing Test Drive 4 when I was a kid, I guess one of my first games ever. Really liked the soundtrack.
Discovered you through RetrowaresTV's The Video Games Years (during the now-mythical chubby long-haired bearded era).
I seem to remember watching a video of yours shortly thereafter where you explored some creepy abandoned buildings. A weird mall and others. Didn't even have anything to do with video games. Very strange.
Haven't really looked back since. You're one of my all-time faves for sure. Keep it up. Right up.
PS. My favorite vid of yours is probably the LGR Plays Goat Simulator. Hearing you cracking up uncontrollably every ten seconds was totes worth it yo
Almost at another 5 years! Been with ya for a long time (VHS days) and hope you have many more years to come.
What VHS days?
@@karlimo4034 do a little research before responding to a six year old comment. All of the standard definition videos were edited to video tapes before upload. Obviously he has been uploading longer than you've been alive.
@@dwarf365 Asking you is my research and it proved to be fruitful. I think he using tapes means that his video camera was VHS format, because back then you could skip VHS altogether by using your crappy webcam, your IPHONE 2 camera or your DVD videocamera like AVGN did. Windows Movie Maker and iMovie were out back then, you didn´t need VHS tech to edit stuff.
Congrats LGR, I only started watching recently and I'm loving the show!
One of my top favorite channels. I'm probably your biggest fan in Brazil, keep doing that great job man.
Congrats.You're one of the best on YT. I look forward to your reviews greatly.
This was an interesting review. I can see how the dialog in your reviews is a little bit different, but still it fits in with all your reviews! I hope for 5 MORE years of videos.
I only re-discovered your channel recently, you seem to have a lot of great stuff up.
And your commentary is always funny.
The "LGR Thrift" series is always inspiring but I don't have that kind of cash and I can't drive so... I am stuck in my crappy town!
-From a fairly new sub, but has been watching your reviews on The Sims stuff for a while!
Hi! Keep up what you're doing. You're really good at it. Ironically your videos aren't as lazy as the other reviews I've seen. Happy fifth Anniversary! ^^
I regularly watch your videos, because they are quite entertaining and I enjoy someone reviewing the games I played during my childhood. Just wanted to say thanks & keep em coming. :)
I hope you do this forever. I enjoy your stuff. I started watching you a few months ago, quickly headed to one of my fave youtubers.
Congratulations on 5 years! This channel's come a long way since then in terms of video and audio quality, although I do miss the older intros! I didn't have much of a problem when I played the game, although the graphics are definitely terrible for the time, as were the cameras. The AI issues seem like exactly the same sort of thing newer NFS games started doing.
dang I think I found you as early as 2009 but didn't get really into it until like 2011. Glad to see after all these years you're still doing great! keep up the good work and I'll continue to fanboy on your comment section (and facebook)
I'm fairly new to your channel. What brought me to it was the Oddware segments you did. I really like seeing all the weird stuff I'd never heard of. The history videos you've done are also cool. If I'm not mistaken you did one on the history of PC game audio. Hopefully you'll do more along those lines at some point.
Keep up the great work! I really love your laid back style.
All the power to you LGR!!! Great to hear you're having a fun time doing this. Good luck to you going forward.
My goodness i love your sense of humor! And your videos always cheer me up.
Hey man, been with you since almost the beginning, still remember the days when your videos only got a handful of views. Keep on truckin'.
Mate you are great. I've been looking for a long time for a gamer reviewer that can use little to no cuss words. It shows that you put a lot of thought into each video you make. Thank you.
I've found your channel a few weeks ago (actually it's been a month, I think. I'm not sure. Recently. Yeah, recently.) and I really liked what I found. Being an enthusiast of old hardware and software myself, your videos fills me with enjoyment. Like someone else said in the comments, you have a calm voice, chill attitude and little to no cursing. I really like when someone makes good content WITHOUT swearing all over it. It's good for a change to find someone who can make good stuff with keeping a good vocabulary at the same time. I hope you keep on more five more years then five more and so on. :)
I just wish/hope that someday, since you mentioned you still got "a million" games to review, that you eventually makes a video on King of The Road (Hard Truck 2 King of the Road). That's still to this date my favorite truck driving game of all time and I really miss playing it. Sadly it is too old and my computer too new. It won't run. :c So yeah. Cheers!
Fan sine the start! Got really nostalgic when I saw and heard your oldschool VHS intro :)
cheers to your success! Buying the original Test Drive at the old Egghead software on 4th ave downtown Seattle in the summer of 1988 is a fond memory.
I quite liked that old soda can intro. Congrats on 5 yeas! Although I have only been watching your videos and have subscribed for little over a week or more and I honestly don't really know how I found you (I think the first video I saw of yours was your review of Blood and 7th Guest I watched it a long time ago)
Sill have to watch the last few of your MS-DOS game reviews I haven't watched yet, so better go do that. Looking forward to seeing what is next. I especially like your MS-DOS game reviews, thrifting and oddware videos.
I remember Test Drive 1 on the Amiga 500..was one of the hardest games. Your only view was from inside the car. Naturally due to hardware restrictions in 1988.
It was a really nicely detailed interior, and different for each supercar, which was pretty awesome. It was also way more in the simulation category, with no assists. You were just sent out there to crash into cars more or less.
holy crap, I saw your atari 2600 review when it came out, and it's been 5 years? I hope you keep it going for at least another 76 years or so. Congrats Clint
Happy anniversary! I love this show, you are literally my favourite reviewer on UA-cam.
6:17 Rolling around at the speed of sound
Happy Anniversary LGR!!! Looking forward to what comes next!!
Toshiba remote at 2:25?
(yeah that's a weird thing to notice, but I have the same remote.) :P
Congratulations on 5 years of LGR! Your videos always make me happy. :)
Congratulations!! You are awesome!! I dont even like games but I enjoy watching your non-sims videos. You definitely have mastered a way to channel your comments in a more comical way, although with the same unforgiving trurhfulness which I find enjoyable! All the best for the next five years and more, Clint!
Thank you for making videos I always look forward to watching!
Oddly enough, when a game review is so hyperbolically negative like this one, it makes me want to check the game out for myself and it's almost never as bad as people say.
Congrats man! Great videos - You'll be making them for another five years easy.
That's why I like LGR reviews. Don't let the scripts play you.
Happy Anniversary!(I hope i can meet you early.)
its been a year now ive been watching your videos and i realized I never subscribed to your channel, great stuff!! love you PC game reviews!!
Nicely done and congrats on 5 years :)
I do miss your old intro tune though!
I first found you about a couple of years ago when I was looking up on info of Disneys Coaster & since then I watched most of your videos.
Sure watching this I got the nostalgic back when I first found you & looking thru the back catalogue of videos, which shows that this was in the spirit of your old videos, yet also it shows that you improved with 5 years of youtube behind you.
It could be a good experiment if you remade this review & see what a Modern Clint can make out of this & compare.
Hah, interesting review.
Happy anniversary!
Very interesting and made me laugh. Happy Anniversary!
Every time i see your videos i can't help but feel relaxed and laid back. Happy 5 man
Haven't been following you the entire 5 years....but on my days off I think I have caught up. I think I first came across your videos about a year ago because you did a collab with someone from TGWTG or someone on youtube mentioned you...either way it was a nice find and I always look forward to your work.
I remember when I descovered you (perhaps a year ago), I used to play your videos on my netbook only to falling asleep to your voice. Just becuase how calm it is and that I dont like falling asleep surrounded by a total silence
Woop, watching for 4 years. I'm glad to see this series getting better and awesome-er after all this time, always makes me smile to see one of these show up in my sub box. :D
Also, I have recently looked back to when I was younger, yesterday in fact. I found a game I used to play called Alien X. It was terrible.
I think you did a great job! Also I am so happy you brought back the old intro! I love that one, thanks LGR!
Wow man, that's pretty buzzy, I believe I've been watching your vids since 2010, so 4 years. I haven't watched any of your older stuff in a long time, I forgot how far you've come in this time! This review was pretty hilarious in it's own special way... but yeah, you've really improved a great deal in over-all production value. Anyway, keep up the great work Clint, I hope you'll be around for another 5 years, I know I'll still be watching if you are. Peace out
That old Venetian Snares intro still gets me going!
