Best Internet Game Reviewers
If you havent seen these guys, you should check em out.
James Duncan Rolfe is an American actor, comedian, filmmaker, film and video game critic, and internet personality, best known for starring in the web television series The Angry Video Game Nerd, a joint production of Rolfe's Cinemassacre Productions, GameTrailers, and ScrewAttack. If your looking for reviewers it's hard to find many that compare to THE nerd. The original grand daddy and pretty much first video game reviewer, you have him to thank for even making gaming reviews a genre.
As much as I like AVN, this guy has no equal,
I've watched his show since day one, my favorite is the Pitfall one, I think its Episode 76
I laughed my but off, and showed it to everyone and they laughed as well
P.S His movie is really funny too.
He called the Atari 5200 a ginormous closet. He called the Sega CD a deformed parasite. He called the SNES a piss-colored Fisher Price toy. What's not to like? He even dissed Nintendo World Championships 1990 for the NES!
I love his reviews on video games, especially the CDi games. As much as I love the Nostalgia Critic, he isn't a game reviewer. He reviewed only 2 games (they were funny I have to admit).
"Very proffesional, very methodic, very thorough. Although ignorants frame him of being a raging yelling nerd, he's actually a very nice guy that only gets angry when he feels gamers are being ripped off or abused by the cold hearted gaming industry. The guy is the voice for every gamer who thinks the gaming industry could do better for all the money and support it gets. Thanks to reviewers like him, more of us get quality over quantity and he should be more relevant."
He went to the VGA rewards to tell the host what they were doing wrong. He professional, but funny when appropriate. He's not biased towards any game series. He even gave bad reviews to sequels of games that he loves, example Fable III, Dragon Age 2 or 3 not sure which one, and the Elder Scrolls Online.
My go to guy. I just wish he reviewed more. If he says it sucks, it sucks. If he says its good, its because he's an actual fan and has fallen in love with it himself. He will even make fun of big review sites for giving mediocre games good reviews. The guy you can trust.
His reviews are quite honest, and he accurately addresses the most important aspects of the games he reviews, and is not afraid to go against mainstream opinion. He is also a badass and one hell of a funny guy, he's the best!
His reason for sounding so negative in his reviews is actually really sound. It's so that the truly brilliant aspects of a game can shine through and so that the negative qualities can be used as lessons for future game designers on pitfalls to avoid in general game design.
He is hysterical! How he isn't at number 1 is beyond me! I've nearly pissed myself in the past listening to him!
Zero Punctuation is consistently funny, like actual laugh-out-loud funny. Recommended.
Has any other reviewer here done a review entirely in limerick? No? Then Yahtzee for #1.
Jonathan "Jon" Jafari, best known by his internet pseudonym JonTron, is an American comedian, reviewer, and internet personality. By far the best one ever. Every one of his videos is so memorable with his lines of words. I don't know how to describe them, but he deserves to be number 1.
All I should need to say as to why this guy should be number one is simple. It's these next five words.
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts.
I rest my case.
Jon is not only an incredibly charismatic and funny guy, he also has really high original quality content...The scarcest of things you can find in Youtube
Provides funny and witty analysis with each video.
Nostalgia Critic is an American web series created, written, edited, directed and performed by Doug Walker. He's not necessarily a video game reviewer, even though he reviewed a game only once. Either way, the Nostalgia Critic is insanely funny and always keeps his quality fairly fresh.
Only internet celebrity that's as funny as stand up comedians.
Why is he on this list?!? He does movies!? Either way he gets my vote.
The best YouTuber ever. Hands down
I actually feel that he is one of the only good critics out there. He makes honest reviews about games that I enjoy. Also Fringy is an awesome critic as well you should check him out because he's only got a few subscribers.
Like his objective approach to first-impressions of video games.
Juan ortiz, or as some call him johnny, is a fantastic reviewer. He started out with a show called, the super gaming bros, with his brother elliot. But since elliot decided to stick to the lets play channel they have (super gaming bros. Play, with john, elliot, and their friend matt), he's decided to do the review show alone, and renamed it, Johnny vs. The world. Johnny is great, because he doesn't try to be funny, it comes naturaly, and he doesn't just get angry during reviews, he actually reviews them really well, by adding plot summaries, in depth analysis on games, and has his funny moments as well. He's a professional animator as well, and has some pretty funny animations to. So chech him out! He's Personally one of my favorite reviewers, and definitely deserves more subscribers!
He's such a critic
Really enjoy his videos! Both on his main channel and his second channel! To me it's just really enjoyable. What I also like is that he often doesn't swear, it makes his content a bit more for everyone.
This guy is hilarious. His videos on Hey You Pikachu, Tomodachi Life, Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 and the MySims games are some of his best, but almost all his videos are great.
What an immature, childish dweeb of an internet game reviewer! I prefer Classic Game Room, Wiiviewr, and Angry Video Game Nerd.
Not for everyone, still awesome.
While fighting bad publisher actions and being one of the most prominent video game reviewers to hit Konami's unfair business practices, Jim sterling, son, is my absolute dominant pick for best Reviewer. He not only researches his subjects and is honest to a point where most others would balk, but he's man enough to look towards the general public and game company employee treatment such as Hideo Kojima of Metal Gear. He is without a doubt an egotistical yet forward thinking person who fights bad games simply because of how much he *loves* good ones- If there's anyone who deserves to be on this list... its Jim Sterling.
Blunt, direct and mostly honest, Jim is a one of kind type of critic
Caddicarus (James Caddick) is a British YouTuber who started YouTubing around May of 2012. He makes reviews on Sundays, with the Caddicarus show, and he makes random videos on Wednesdays with the Caddy show. Absolutely love his tastes and sense of humor. His videos never get "too weird" and they never get stupid. You get a good sense of the atmosphere of a game and when he loves a game, you can feel it through him.
His videos are a bit long, but I am glad they are~
Honest, british, clever whats not to love?
The Spoony One is probably the only game reviewer that is both funny and entertaning. All of his videos are funny as hell.
If anyone is reading this right now, please go and watch his Ultima retrospective, I think it is one of the best videos he has done.
Jared Knabenbauer (born August 28, 1985), better known online as ProJared, is an American YouTube personality. He is best known for his video game reviews and videos related to Dungeons & Dragons. Knabenbauer also worked extensively with various YouTubers outside of his own channel. Full Reviews done by PJ are entertaining, and his genuine frustration with a lot of the junk out there comes through in humorous ways (having PeanutButterGamer scare the pee out of him during a Pocky & Rocky review was really ' funny.) Unfortunately, he wastes a lot of time on Monster Hunter & Pokémon when there are a ton of games out there which would be fun to watch him review. On the positive side: He tagged Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde (possibly the most impossible game in existence on the old NES) and Hydlide (AUGH! ) as two of the worst games in existence. Also not afraid to note when a game sucks despite the hype, and doesn't need scads of scatological references to make his point.
He usually does 1 minute review videos which gives a short but concise synopsis on what the game is and whether it's any good. But when ProJared actually buckles down to release a full review he's one of the best reviewers on the internet, be it YouTube or professional gaming site. Bonus points for using the entire 10-point scale as well
One of the only honest reviewers ever, and gamings greatest hope at future quality control. Simply Hilarious, Entertaining, Honest and Unbound by bias. He understands the gaming industry's BEST and WORST aspects, and his Thumb up/Thumb down system, as we all know, is tried, true and, with his meaty explainable usually faultless. Only one close to him is Joe, well worth a watch
I appreciate genuine people. Mack is genuine people.
Why isn't he number one? Like what the actual!
No fanboy with this guy.
Should be higher on this list. He's honestly one of my favorites!
He's not good as the avgn because the nerd did better job doing it but he's a good reviewer.
So what's your thoughts on him.
I Prefer him over mr enter.
This man is never afraid to go against the mainstream opinion and is exceptionally good at explaining why and how. He is one of the few reviewers out there that just talks about any little thing he can find with little care about how long that may take. At the end of any of his videos even if you disagree you will know where he's coming from, guaranteed.
Articulate, and in-depth critiques about game design.
Disgraceful that MatthewMatosis is this low yet mouth breathers like Angry Joe are at the top
Whilst he does not possess as much comedy as the AVGN, he is still funny and he does very well at analysing games such as the terrible Bubsy 3D.
I know everyone gives him a hard time and accuses him of copying AVGN, and for the most part this is true, but he's still funny and at least tries to go in his own direction and not just copy the sensation that is AVGN.
For the asses who hate him for supposedly copying avgn, go yourself please.
He rips off AVGN and isn't funny in the damn slightest!
The Irate Gamer is not funny or entertaining.
