Still does AVGN sporadically. James and Mike and his new show Rental Reviews are still going and he does sponsorship shills the hell on them. He shills for new shit everyweek now so I'm guessing he isn't making as much money after the adpocalypses since I think Youtube is his primary income.

I honestly prefer his older videos. The low production value is part of the appeal for his show, in my opinion. It's sort of like these Peter Jackson horror movies pre LotR that turn out to be more comedic than scary.

>in April of last year (2015) he bought a half million dollar house
This right here makes me doubt this entire thing. He's been doing videos in the same house since 2010, why the fuck would he buy a second house?

Youtube pays shit, which is why he has to shill for advertisers. I'm glad at least he makes the shilling interesting, but god do I hate his friends.
I don't like jew Justin Silverman in his videos either.

His last good review was the Game Boy Accessories one.
After that it's all trash imho.

People shit on Kojima a lot because they think Tomokazu Fukushima is what made the series good, but they forget that he added a lot of the really batshit stuff to the series.

which is funny cause mike's quite passive-aggressive with him, especially when he's playing better than him, must be the 'tism

Kojimbo is a fraud. Fukushima made the games.

since this is an AVGN and friends thread of sorts, has Pat and/or his sperglord co-host come out and apologised for spilling their spaghetti over Diablo Immortal yet or are they sitting there pretending that the autists that give a shit about their gay podcast are the type to eat their abuse?
I really like James and Mike and even though the videos can be kind of boring when they're doing their Monday game vids they look like they genuinely enjoy the games they're playing and each other's company and it's almost wholesome considering how cynical and ironic everything is today
the video rental reviews aren't good though and the one fat sperg is brutal to listen to

Steam needed a kick in their nuts. The fees they've started charging developers are insane. Almost better to avoid steam altogether and just go retail at the 22% they charge.

Mike's a gigantic fucking egomaniac.
He's only humble around James sometimes as an attempt to balance it out.
