James Rolfe / James D. Rolfe / Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN) / Rex Viper and Cinemassacre / Screenwave - Now with not much grieving about a 41-year old man still making videos on YouTube. We're the balls on the dick.

James probably just got a random email from Stuttering Craig asking him to record a bit for his new dumb "Real Game Awards" thing and did it as a favor since ScrewAttack helped boost the Nerd in its early days. It's a minute long clip that he probably did in one or two takes.

He's not even remotely as terminally online as all of the Resetera faggots or the Gamergate 2.0 grifters think he is. Guy's famous for basically avoiding any kind of personal online drama just short of his videos declining hard after selling Cinemassacre to Screenwave. Total nothingburger that people are probably never gonna let him live down, unfortunately.

You know, I really don't think I've seen many or any people with his hairline. It's a reserve mail pattern, going away more in the middle then the sides. I've seen guys like 8-bit guy with weird patches in the middle I guess. This is worse somehow.

Another Goobergate would be a wet-dream come true for all the grifters who talk too much about games but never actually play them.

There was a wet fart of an attempt at Gamergate 2.0 recently after obese unemployed grifters heard fragments of an idea of "ESG" and Blackrock and DEI from meme infographics.
But it didn't pan out, firstly due to high /pol/tard intersection poisoning discussion to be about jews, and secondly (and most importantly) because there was no cheating whore involved to fire up the drama.
Once again proving that only WOMEN GET IT DONE

The Angry Video Game Nazi strikes again!

They should have just played Dear Feeder's playthrough and called it a day.

This is a big hullabaloo about nothing. He's going to get out of this unscathed as the only places giving him shit are resetera and some of the woker subreddits. The thing is, him being perpetually offline has come back to bite him in the ass a bit because I think if he had done a tiny bit of research he wouldn't have taken part in the award ceremony due to the other people involved in it and the obvious wider political implications. It's clear he was just doing it as a favor to Stuttering Craig.

Yeah like James being terminally offline actually did hurt him a bit like the whole plagiarism fiasco with Monster Madness because James is content to read scripts only than actually research now.

But it will definitely get worse since this is another contrast between Doug and James, which is that Doug appears to be more aware of the things that are going on online whereas James is perpetually stuck in the 90s and early 2000s.

It is also why I think James is a cow since he is so offline that it ends up hurting him with how blind he is to the wider internet landscape.

AVGN's "grift" is the same grift it has always been- a boomer screaming profanities about shit he hates. It may be cringe, but it's authentic, a real slice of a bygone era. That very fact seems to inoculate him against the need to interact with Current Year one way or another- anything current would not, ironically, be dated enough for his brand.

Personally, I think that's pretty based. Teflon Don, meet Bulletproof Bimmy.

 

[Scritti Politti]

This is even more impressive considering all the morons he always surrounded himself with, it's always them catching all the shit because they engage, Bimmy #Doesn'tHaveTime for that shit.

Perhaps this is by design; lots of successful leaders have surrounded themselves with retards and idiots to make themselves seem more reasonable, and to act as lightning rods cf. Nixon and Agnew.

 

[Autistic Nonetheless]

If Gamergate 1.0 lead to the election of Donald Trump then we can only speculate at what horrors lurk at the end of this road.

The Game Dude would never be seen at a Nazi Party

 

[30+GameOvers]

A summary of the drama, which is the most inane and impotent whinging I've seen online about video games since that girl made an Animal Crossing character with buns in her hair.

Breaking news: Reddit, trannies and Resetera are UPSET about something

Actually, this is not breaking news, this is just an everyday occurrence.
This drama feels incredibly forced and lame, most importantly not very interesting. Wake me up when Bimmy makes an actually interesting review and/or stops losing hair, maybe then I will actually pay attention to him again.

 

[RybenZ999]

To be honest AVGN is the last guy I expected to get tangled up in this kind of stuff. The dude is pretty apolitical for the most past.

Time to binge watch the AVGN again. Think I might go beyond 2015-2016 as that's when I lost interest.

It isn't worth it. That Majora's Mask video is the only good episode from the last 10 years.

 

[Administrator Flotsam]

But it didn't pan out, firstly due to high /pol/tard intersection poisoning discussion to be about jews, and secondly (and most importantly) because there was no cheating whore involved to fire up the drama.

I like to think it as one of the few signs that people matured and learned not to take the bait.
Even in GG1.0's case, the cheating whore quickly lost relevance and it was only carried forward by the grifters who made their money trying to trigger the other side into doing something that could be pointed to and laughed at.

I'd say I still have a passing interest though; but only if its feasible to see total gamejourno death without the drama getting messy.

Tho he may have joined stonetoss in a couple of satanic rituals where they try (and fail) to re-grow their lost foreskin.

 

[Donkey Kongus]

Wow, look. Nothing.
Fred Fuchs wouldn’t take this shit sitting down, just saying.

 

[Patrick Bateman]

In my opinion, AVGN's biggest flaw is that he’s just not funny anymore. I'm curious to see what kind of baggage these justice warriors are carrying—I sense a bit of troll’s remorse.

 

[No Batty Boys in Jamaica]

Hitler was famous for his hatred of bad videogames for sure. So this checks out.

The only game Hitler played was Animal Crossing New Horizon. He appreciated the volkisch theme of creating a utopia while evicting ugly villagers.

 

[30+GameOvers]

That clip did get a chuckle out of me, so good for Bimmy, I guess. Anyone who gets triggered by this needs to checked into an asylum, so no surprises for any of the usual suspects here. It will be funny if Bimmy just ignores the drama, or is so out of touch with the internet going ons that he doesn't even know it's happening.

He did play Meinkraft too.

To be honest AVGN is the last guy I expected to get tangled up in this kind of stuff. The dude is pretty apolitical for the most past.

I expect because of the woman he has had children with and her magnum opus post about the AVGN movie. They probably vote straight democrat anyway. James is probably too detached as autistic as he is about movies. To be any sort of online politisperg.
I would bet their politics are normie tier and don't really get mentioned. His book gave us a look at how James sees himself. He is too oblivious and self absorbed to get involved in internet politics.

Once we get Musk to xweet about Gamergate 2.0, it's over for SJWs.
