You are not ready for this video. Seriously.

You'll notice the general theme of this week's episode is a reworking of an article I wrote several months ago, but the message has never been more apt than recently, given what certain videogame "experts" have been up to in the mainstream media. This week's episode simply had to be made. 

Even so, you are not ready for it. Not ready at all.

In this video you look like a 'big boned' guy from Green Day.
I hate Green Day.
That's why this is epic.
I love you.
Can you be my wife?

Wat.

Also, that slick purple tie-orange shirt combo is giving some serious Jack Nicholson Joker vibes.

Your right, I wasn't ready, not ready at all...

I heard that Citizen Kane was the Metroid of films.

I disagree. I feel that boner quest is our Citizen Kane.

I counted at least ten moments in there that would make amazing animated gifs. Anyone who has the technically know-how do do these things should look at the 2:00, 2:09, 2:23, 2:36 just for starters.

But I have a sinking feeling in my stomach that some tard of a "real journalist" will see this, take it seriously, and have it on some backwater news network.

That was amazing. Your art snob voice was great.

But let us show this video to fat movie critics that nobody gives a shit about. And oh ho HO! THEN we'll gain... something?

Jim, you are truly unrecognized talent. It was freaky, and I had trouble looking at your face while make up was progressively added. But enjoyable all around.

Sadly, Jim's final form is what I think of whenever I hear Anthony ramble on about indie games.

I always figured Altered Beast was the Citizen Kane of videogames since they both have werewolves in them.

@Bioautographical

No, I'm Dtoid's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Small, relatively unimportant, and no one has ever heard of me, but I have a few decent points. And a good sense of irony.

Michi is Dtoid's Gigli.

You were right. I was not ready for that. That was awesome.

You and Anthony should have a video debate on the topic.

I love these things. They're just so shitty that it's funny. You really freaked me out when you actually showed yourself with the make up though it waxs great that you progressively got more up yourself as the video went along. I still prefer your earlier ones but this was good.

Off topic: Has anyone read the DTOID channel comments lately? They really show the true face of youtube.

"LelouchX77 (2 days ago)

"adman63 (3 weeks ago)
has Jim Sterling died?"

I... was not prepared. watching this video is like going into the front line of a major conflict in a world war; there is simply nothing that can prepare you for it.
