The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

We now get a Behind the Scenes look at how James does an AVGN Episode.

Note: 35 Minutes Long.

He spent a ton of money just on the equipment to make a episode. He get's paid by Viacom. Since Game Trailers is bought by MTV and Viacom Owns MTV and Game Trailers so he get's paid by Viacom. It was a great video. I will watch it again when I get home.

Too bad the actual game review took less than five minutes. Watching Rolfe at work was interesting, but, to be honest - i haven't learned anything new from his demonstration and i'd prefer a normal AVGN episode instead.

But I think that's the whole reason he did a "Behind the Scenes" deal.  Because of the fact his review was so short.  It's a cheap way of adding in time. :)

Don't be so picky about it. And ungrateful. I for one liked the video. It was a good way to show us how he makes each episode. I enjoy it.
