I'm still not over those Screenwave people having links to an (alleged? convicted?) pedo. Like, I sort of feel it taints the whole channel, especially since there were rumors circulating on reddit some days ago that one of the guys at Screenwave helped the dude cover his tracks.

Is this new information or something?

That subreddit should have been quarantined/banned ages ago. This is the same group that have tried to claim James is being held against his will in a Britney-esque conservatorship by his wife and Screenwave.

The Cinemassacre Truth is a conspiracy hivemind on Q levels of insanity, and it's best to just avoid them.

So...is everything bad I've heard just not true? I'm 100% not trying to spread any misinformation. I thought it was real and I'm sorry if I've been led astray.

Anything that originates on CinnemassacreTruth is an outright lie, or at the very least heavily skewed to fit a narrative. It's all nonsense that can be ignored.

Cinemassacre Truth is good for some memes but some there are so obsessed with it all.

Whoever owns the remnants of LJN just handing it over to James does seem reasonably plausible.

Cinemassacre Truth is crazies doing memes, but I think the part about them associating with a pedo is true, but not currently. I think the fat guy did defend the pedo a little more than it was comfortable.

Honestly the worst thing about them is that like 2-3 of them started acting like big shots, and the Cinemassacre subreddit was like who the fuck are you guys. That shit was pretty funny

100th episode: story-focused battle with a giant robot
200th episode: clip show

Still, I hoped he would do an LJN leftovers episode. I'm glad that he did it even if it relied heavily on previous footage to fill time. The LJN saga is finally complete.

Just watched it. It was basically a clip episode, normally stuff like this is done because of budget constraints so I'm guessing this will be a multiple episode event or something.

Dude, its part 1 of a 3 parter. He had to lay the groundwork and remind us of the games he already reviewed.

It is. This one only did movie-based LJN games, and there's a second part coming.

There's also the subplot of the Nerd hiring that guy to make a new/good Back to the Future game.

I didn't read the description, so my bad. This does look fun though.

So they're really doing a video game, so the AVGN episode was both crummy commercial and a clip show. Son of a bitch!

And Cinemassacre Truth is both people taking things way too far and former/current fans with legit criticism. I think it was them that first brought out the plagiarism issues.

Much better. I figured the later ones were going to be less clip show-y after seeing the categories. There's still a ton he hadn't covered

Just watched the episode, I'm glad there wasn't as much re-used clips in this episode and he's reviewing ones he hasn't covered yet. Some were pretty funny, but other is the typical over reaction unfunny bits. I'm looking forward to the final episode of this trilogy though.

It's a fact at this point that they're taking advantage of James. He hasn't kept up with technology since his college days and has less knowledge of common sense shit than even the dumbest geriatrics. The only reason he refuses to play games on the PC/Mac is because he legitimately thinks the only controllers for it are joysticks.

They convinced him that it would take months to get simple gameplay footage of a PC game and then had him give them a shitload of money to buy unnecessary equipment and other things for it.

Enjoying the mini-review portions, but not particularly thrilled with the "making a game" storyline (although I did get a good laugh out of replacing the clocks with hourglasses). Would be great if there's something awesome to pay it off in part 3 beyond just "we're making a AVGN game for the actual NES" although I'm not getting my hopes up.

LJN never made any games, they bought the license and let third party developers rush out the games.
They hired Atlus, Sanritsu, Westone, Beam Software, Rare, Software Creations, Rocket Science Productions, Sculptured Software, Bits Studios, Probe Software, Acclaim, Gray Matter Studios, Realtime Associates, Iguana Entertainment, Condor, Inc., Blizzard North, Western Technologies Incorporated, Rage Games, and Broadsword Interactive to make their games.

They're rushed, farmed out to "two guys in a basement" studios, most of the budget goes to licensing, and the developers get little more than a rough synopsis and "finish it by the film's release!" to work with.

The gamedev subplot is covering this nicely.
