Don't know why this is getting dumbs, it's pretty accurate and I agree with a good majority of his points.

Because a lot of people here dislike Angry Joe
[QUOTE=Hakita;43135693]Because a lot of people here dislike Angry Joe[/QUOTE]
I dislike his "character" that is cussing and yelling and being generally obnoxious, but when he's more normal and relaxed, and not playing a role, he's pretty great with relaying his points. I agree with his opinions even when he's playing his character, I just don't like the unpleasant way he goes about it.
This though, was almost 100% spot on and I really am glad he agrees that Geoff is a good guy just trying to make the VGAs not crap. His ideas are very agreeable.
I hate fake laughter and his overall "angry" character. Otherwise he was spot on.
He needs to research Tyler The Creator before calling it 'Serious Gangsta Rap'
I was actually expecting him to mention the Todd & Aaron Mega64 skit. What with the general audience reaction to that being pretty negative (Honestly being a Mega64 fan, I can say that it's probably their worst skit yet)
From what I've seen, other than making Geoff uncomfortable, Joel was a bit shit. He made waaaay to many basement dweller jokes.

I just found his humour not a good choice for 3-hour show.

He wasn't right for the setting, particularly with the dead silence that Joe mentioned after jokes.

seemed to me like he was basically forced to go up on stage and read off these jokes
also he was drunk

Now I feel kinda bad that we've been making fun of him for so long. :(

I'm amazed he was able to watch the entire video, because I certainly wouldn't be able to watch a video that contains 20 minutes of someone shitting all over you.

Joel was the only person worth watching in the VGX other then Tyler the Creator.

He actually shat on Joel, the Loiter Squad, pretty much everyone and everything but Geoff.

Which I'm glad for.
Geoff is a pretty great guy when he's not being forced to do advertisements and gimmicks in order to keep his job. Really unfortunate that he's still ridiculed obsessively because that seems the "pope" character is the only way people know him.

VGA's/VGX is geoffs baby.
he had to sacrifice his soul to the god of dewritos for it but at least it is improved every year.
my only complaint this year was that there wern't any good unveils, which is why i mainly watch it. everything else felt like tim and eric assembled a awards show for video games and i laughed my ass off the entire time (I AM PART OF THE REMEDY MULTIVERSE).
Joel McHale was the only thing that made that show worth watching. He was playing the straight man to an ENTIRE AWARDS SHOW. Its like nobody in the awards show itself understood how utterly and completely off base they were except for McHale.

mchale is the only person in the whole show who genuinely cared about the games (except for the devs obviously)
you can see it come to the surface in no mans sky interview and dying light.

You could really tell when he was on or off script, I don't understand why when you have someone who can present so organically you'd have them so heavily scripted.
I dont think people understand that Tyler and his crew made that unfunny just to fuck with them. They've done these types of things before. Such as when a radio show did a live show with them, they weren't allowed to curse so they just made up some stupid ass lyrics instead.
What Joe doesn't get is the higher ups really don't give a fuck. Pander to the lowest common denominator as much as possible and there is a very large crowd of "stupid" gamers.
McHale asking Geof what games he likes and what he'll play and Mr. Dorito not being able to answer most likely because of promotion contracts was the singularity were McHale showed us what the VGX actually are.

No he gets that. That's exactly what he's trying to get Geoff to fight against.
I don't know, the whole VGX seemed fake and commercialy and Joel was the only part that was non-gimmicky and straight about it by calling everything out
As soon as I heard they even named it VGX, I lost all hope for the shred of legitimacy that might've been left.
