Good summary! Eventhough I don’t particularly enjoy Irategamers videos (I find the whole shtick extremely played out), I respect him for being a fighter. He seems to have a fairly good work-ethic as well, writing both books, keeping multiple channels alive, doing ghosthunts/lectures and more… this is impressive considering he seems to be mostly a one-man-band. AVGNs output for example is very slow nowadays and he has a whole team behind him.

There's a simple reason why Chris Bores didn't directly address the AVGN controversy earlier in his career: The internet was a much more unforgiving environment at the time. After all, this was also the same era where admitting to enjoying all six Star Wars movies was considered the worst thing anyone could ever say. That’s how insane the internet was back then. Copying someone else's content was often viewed as a serious offense, even more so than actual crimes. Even if Chris Bores had addressed the situation, he likely would have continued to be a target of hatred, with people reacting by saying that admitting it wouldn’t improve the situation or make the criticism go away. The reason Chris chose to respond years later was that the internet had become more forgiving and understanding. During that period, concerns over content theft diminished in comparison to other issues, especially with the growing number of KZbinrs who had been exposed as real-life criminals who committed actual crimes, which made Chris look like a saint by comparison, especially since, and speaking from personal interactions, he's actually a very nice guy and surprisingly down to earth given that he used to be THE number one target on KZbin. Additionally, Chris received more re-evaluation thanks to several people who had previously criticized or even antagonized him coming to forgive, accept, or befriend him. This is especially notable with Mike Matei, who was the second most vocal critic of Chris, outside of Batdan. Mike eventually got along with Chris, whereas Batdan continued to hate on him, even after Chris and James Rolfe collaborated, going so far as to antagonize James. That behavior is just pathetic. Overall, this is why Chris Bores didn't directly address the controversy right away: Doing so likely wouldn’t have diminished the hatred he received, at best only slightly. The hate wagon would have continued regardless. However, over time, Chris has found a way to positively engage with his audience and move forward, demonstrating that, against all odds, it is indeed possible for someone to achieve growth and redemption.

But seriously, you're just bitter that Chris went from being one of the internet's most hated figures to becoming more respected, earning critical re-evaluation of his content, starting a family, and even becoming friends with James Rolfe. Meanwhile, you're still stuck in the past, refusing to move on like Chris or literally anyone whose name isn't Batdan or Silent Rob. It's like you're clinging to the dial-up days, back when edgy language was all it took to get attention. Newsflash: We’ve evolved. Maybe it’s time you do the same and get a life.

I got a blast of nostalgia watching this video. The Irate Gamer was my first exposure to the angry reviewer genre, retro gaming, and gaming history on KZbin. I wasn't aware of the AVGN or any allegations of plagiarism or poor reporting thrown at Chris. I just enjoyed the videos as a 9-10 year old kid. I watched pretty much everything Chris would put out at the time, even the old ghost hunting stuff. His initial coverage of the first Skylanders game is one of the factors convinced me to buy the game and become a big fan of the franchise. It was around 2012 that I became aware of AVGN and jumped onto the "Irate Gamer sucks" ship. For some time I would watch DJ Cuell's and DLAbaoaqu's videos commentating on old IG videos. After that I just left the Irate Gamer behind, became a teenager, and moved onto newer, better gaming channels on KZbin. Years later, I would be made aware of the Puppet Steve stuff through one of Guru Larry's videos. It was surreal to not only see Chris still uploading videos, but to know it was easily the most successful thing he had ever done up until that point. He was still doing the Skylanders stuff too! Beyond that, I let Irate Gamer stay in my past. I'm glad him and James were able to bury the hatchet and work together. I might just go back to watch the old Irate Gamer videos for the hell of it thanks to your video. I know you said the recent ghost hunting stuff wouldn't be mentioned, but I wish you covered his involvement with Nick Rekeita, Ethan Ralph, and the Sonichu Medallion curse. It was easily one of the most hilarious things I've seen from him. I hope Chris continues to have success online, even with the ghost hunting stuff.

I found him and AVGN in 2008 and started watching their content, I even went on their websites. I always watched AVGN without stopping. But I think around 2010 or so I saw some controversy surrounding him, I don't remember all the details. Well I stopped watching him after that. Until 2014 when I saw the video of his response to the Archfiend. I watched their back and forth and then I subscribed to him, I have not subbed to him previously since I didn't create a KZbin account until around the beginning of 2014. I believe I stayed subbed since.

Looking back, I am glad I handled all the hate between the 2 fandoms the way I did, by having nothing to do with any of it. I enjoyed both Irate Gamer and AVGN. I watched both of their content, and had no interest in keeping up with the contraversies. I occasionally pop over to Chris's channel and watch some episodes, and I pop over to James's channel and watch things over there. I'm really glad I never jumped into the drama and simply just watched videos for entertaiment when I had some free time.

I used to have a massive "so bad, it's good" soft spot for Chris right until he made an episode of his podcast about his theories surrounding the death of a Power Rangers actor... pretty much right after it was revealed he passed away (I think it might even be the same day), with the description that said "Yes, I'm going there" or something like that. He quickly removed and re-uploaded it at a later date before removing it for good. I swear that this was a thing, where's BatDan when you need him? That was when my opinion of Chris changed a lot. Still, I hope that his obsession with all things occult doesn't influence his and his family's private life.

Weirdly enough I kinda have gone through 3 phases of "opinions" on the Irate Gamer myself. When I first found him as a kid, I thought he was hilarious and could rival AVGN (helped too that I didn't really understand what plagiarism was as a 9/10 year old and thus didn't understand why people hated him for that). Then in my teenage years and especially as I went into my AVGN fanboy phase, I really started hating Chris, especially after learning about some of the "awful" things he had supposedly done. Now as a 24-year-old, I kinda am just like "whatever" on the guy. I don't think he's notably good, but he certainly is far from the worst content creator and person on the internet for sure. Truth be told I really don't think he deserved much of the hate he got. In a lot of ways I think Chris kinda just had bad luck on his side, what with his sudden rise to fame back in the day when such a meteoric rise was rarely seen on KZbin (or the internet in general for that matter) and the fact that he also happened to be an angry reviewer during a time when pretty much everyone who reviewed games in that fashioned was getting knocked for being an "AVGN ripoff" and when James was at the peak of his success. Funny enough, in some ways, with James's recent scandals and controversies and the fact that it's been revealed that a lot of his own recent work has been plagiarized, you could almost argue Chris has gotten the last laugh in the end and that the tables have been turned for him. Regardless I do wish him well, and I am glad that the two of them have, if nothing else, at least resolved their "bad blood" so to speak.

I hate-watched him. I would say yes, while he was really unfunny, that somehow made his videos funny and entertaining. It was one of those so bad that it's good things. Except it was bad.

Regarding SNES vs Genesis, you could technically argue that the Genesis came out in the US to compete with the SNES. While it came out first, it was marketed in a way to beat the SNES which was out in Japan already and the marketing team knew what they had. Retro actively speaking I do believe a lot of things Chris did. He may subconciously copied the AVGN and watching his videos just to 'know' what he shouldn't copy is not gonna help. Him stopping to watch him to get fresh ideas are the way to go. The thing I appreciate about the Irate Gamer are that he was so bad that it is good and I honestly like his content more than modern AVGN to the point I stopped watching AVGN before the movie came out. Also the Irate Gamer parodies that came out where gold (minus the one from Lowcow Linkara who is what people believe Irate Gamer is acting like. I would like to watch a Linkara Parody of Irate Gamer). Also a channel I like to watch and I am subbed to JustSomeRandomClips has some hilarious clips about all the 'angry reviewers'. It started as a nitpick of Irate Gamer but over time, like how we started to look more critically instead of jumping the bandwagon, he also went over other angry reviewers including AVGN and Nostalgia Critic. I think they are hilarious. Besides, who can forget No Date Gamer who sadly removed his channel, but his videos are still around I think. The most recent videos I liked from Chris were the Jurassic Park videos where AVGN appeared randomly. Otherwise, I moved away from his channel.

When you got to the part about MUSCLE, I was about to suggest you to watch the BigAl2k6 video about MUSCLE where he calls out Irate Gamer for not knowing the basics of the game he reviewed, but I'm very glad you know about BigAl and included it. You should do a history and retrospective of BigAl in the future because he was involved in a ton of drama in very early KZbin regarding his calling out of Narutards, and his PETA and Jesus Camp videos, as well as an early example of someone having their channel falsely mass flagged to get their channel deleted. A fair amount of his old videos still exist on youtube on archive channels. He's still active to this day so maybe you could even get ahold of him for an interview. That'd be wild to see, because he was the very first content creator I remember enjoying when KZbin was still in its formative years. @BigAl2k11100 is one of the archive channels with a ton of his older stuff Loved the Irate Gamer documentary you did as well. Excellent work as always 👍

@@foof811 thanks! A BigAl2k6 video is a great idea. I believe Asalieri is in contact with him so it might not be hard to get ahold of him for an interview. Might keep that in mind for later. Glad you enjoyed the video!

Are you a child? This stuff happened years ago, Chris owned up to everything he did and made up with James, they even did a video together. I think you need to move out of your parents' basement and get a life.
