This honestly doesn't seems to be bad as it's progress, but the original criticism of this show is still there
The Irate Gamer, the most hated gamer there ever was (As now he done with his career surprisingly). The hate I sorta understand and somewhat agree with. The original episodes this guy made were like most people say, just flap-out ripoffs of AVGN (Angry Video Game Nerd) like his Back to the Future video and his Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles video. Just stealing a-lot of AVGN's lines such as "Cowabunga piece of S**t" and "What a S**t load of f*ck", and most importantly, the AVGN's popular line, "What were they thinking", this is totally I will agree, is unnecessary, and I'll honestly agree, that he does not have the rights to violating steal lines from AVGN. The jokes that were made, did absolutely nothing for me, and another is that there are a-lot of errors to find in these episodes which I'm not going to go through, especially his most infamous one, "Super Mario Bros. 2", tons of errors in that one, which makes it appropriate to be his most popular. But however, these episodes (According to me) are watchable. The Actor/Director/Writer of this Show, Chris Bores, sure did do a-lot of effort in making these episodes, and I'm not talking about the uncreative Script/Jokes but the action which is both that and his detailing about certain things like Video Game Series, toy lines, and etc., are like the only positive things I could even say about these early episodes. I absolutely loved it when he talking about the confusion of being a "Goonies 2" game, despite there weren't a second Goonies' film, and the example of the earlier Donkey Kong's Games, which was kinda of a nice example to be honest, now this may be a ripoff of AVGN's "Chronically Confused" Video, but it not that unacceptable like the other ones I already mentioned, and yet his "Goonies 2" is probably one of the few best videos of the first season. By the second season, things kinda comes slowly to a change, in which something I'm going to give Bores some credits for, for being smart at this moment, as the Irate Gamer's characters seems to slowly becomes his own, not just a typical Knockoff. His "Predator" review is probably another favorite of mine, and somewhat his Contra videos, but however they're some complaints but I'm going to bring them up however. Now the use of other Characters in this show by now seems to go a bit of a change too, now the previous season didn't seems to have that much of interesting characters, such as Tony, who is pretty much a "S**t pickle" ripoff, but here we have characters, despite they seems to already be characters that seems to be done before, like a Skeleton who seems to be a crazed fan of the IG, and is a obvious Homosexual, and the IG's evil Twin (Yeah pretty common to used) but they're fun to watch however and Bores did a good job writing them, especially Satan, who have just good lines in this show. By Season 3 and beyond, the whole concept of being a AVGN's ripoff is now completely faded away, and this is where things gets so better. This is where Bores prove to those highly Devout, but yet mindless AVGN Fans that he's not a Idiot like they think he is, by referencing the AVGN's review of "Sliver Surfer" in his review of the same exact game by admitting he knows he already done it, now that is GENIUS. His "Kool Aid" review was good, I thought the Kool Aid was kinda funny to see honestly, and his "Aladdin" review was alright, except there are some errors (The same exact ones seen in his early Reviews), but yet it was enjoyable. I truly thought his "Mike Tyson's Punch-out" review was hilarious too, and yet another of mine favorite. It is quite surprising that Bores decide to end this well-conversational series, but yet it was a good idea however, not because it was considered a bad show but it was to just to shut the Haters up once and for all.
Overall, I'm going to get this show not a high score nor a low score, but a average score of about 5, if you seen a episode of this guy that was most likely just a ripoff of AVGN, I suggest you watched a later episode like during season 3-5, I'm sure you'll most likely get a different look on this character from any of those episodes.
