James, are you okay? What are you doing?

[@supersleepygamer1925]

I can see James hearing about this and thinking it's so absurd that he should review it, but in the past he would have went through the trouble of making a setup where someone was forcing him to play the worst of modern games. But no. This was just... I don't know. Not exactly a prime example of AVGN IMO.

[@Game_Hero]

not just hearing about this, but playing it during James&Mike mondays, one of the most hilarious things
