First Season
Is there any good reason why the first two AVGN episodes, from '04, are lumped in with the 2006 season? I would've thought they would a) represent a season in of themselves, or b) be considered to precede the "seasonal" formal altogether. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.224.209.163 (talk) 06:35, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Length of Table Cells
I want to get everyone's opinion on how information is being displayed in these tables. The content is growing everyday - and it has reached a point where it might be detrimental to the page. I would suggest that each Description Cell adopts a format with two paragraphs. The first will a list of the games/systems reviewed. We should replace the breaks with commas. The second paragraph would contain any special notes. Let me know what you think. Cheers! -DevinCook (talk) 18:02, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
- I agree with DevinCook. Having a break after every game title is very wasteful (only a few characters per line) and the cell heights vary widely (2 to ~20 lines). Same for the notes: break after each sentence (inconsistent at the moment) not necessary. Rror (talk) 21:56, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
- I would employ the KISS principle and have only data (games reviewed, time) separated by comma and no additional fluff (e.g., this is the first time Nerd destroys...). StevePrutz (talk) 22:37, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
Written by Mike Matei?
Matei is nowhere credited for writing/co-writing, and in this interview states that he is helping with many aspects of the episodes, but does not write his own parts. Rror (talk) 13:17, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
Rolfe writes the majority of show with occasional input by Matei. From the same article "I also play the games a lot with James. Playing games and coming up with ideas I think is often a more fun process for James when there is another person there" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.250.232.218 (talk) 02:15, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
Links to episodes
Wikipedia policy states that Wikipedia is not a repository of links. It is of course convenient to have links to all the episodes but according to the policy, isn't Wikipedia supposed to not be something like that? (Just as a notation, from the Finnish article of The Angry Video Game Nerd, the links to the episodes have already been removed.) Apoyon (talk) 19:49, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
- I agree to some extend, but this article is more like a list of WP:EPISODES (with title, date, 'synopsis') which also contains links to the videos. I know, it's not TV :) and there are no secondary sources, but they are not just bare links. Rror (talk) 22:00, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
YouTube Links
There has been a movement to change all links on this page to copies on YouTube. However, it is important to keep the links official with the links on the AVGN website. Some videos were published to YouTube before the show was picked up by ScrewAttack and GameTrailers. Once this happened, videos were published on the respective GameTrailers page.-DevinCook (talk) 14:15, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
Related videos section
I feel that there are too many irrelevant videos in the related videos section. Just because a video has Rolfe in it or it was made by him, does not automatically mean that it should go in that section. I think it should be limited to videos starring Rolfe as the AVGN (not in a cameo role) that do not fit into the regular episode list. Andy120290 (talk) 04:01, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
- I agree, after all this article is about the AVGN, not Rolfe.--Megaman en m (talk) 09:51, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
- I went ahead and removed some stuff. Some of it, like "James Rolfe – Meet the Nerd!," could probably go as well, but I am not sure. I will leave it to the talk. Andy120290 (talk) 17:02, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
I don't know how to make the change to correct the problem...sorry. but, something is wrong with the way the related videos section is displaying. It shouldn't be in the table above it, but should start it's own table. If anyone can fix it, that would be a great improvement to this already very useful page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brvman (talk • contribs) 05:52, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
Vandalism
Can anyone please re-edit the list of the episodes from Season 1? Somebody enlarged the boxes and put descriptions saying that James rip the Irate Gamer's videos. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.108.9.240 (talk) 16:52, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
Original Research
The current version of this article contains numerous little factoids included in the list that are fairly obviously Original Research. I'm referring to things like "first episode to not use the word 'fuck'". These do not belong and I think they should be removed. I'm just dropping a comment in case anyone has an issue with this. -Verdatum (talk) 08:09, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
Theme Song
Isn't there an episode where they play the full version of the theme song. I can't seem to remember which one it is... Dustman15 (talk) 23:06, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
It's the Sega CD Rewiev. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.196.232.252 (talk) 09:08, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
Nintoaster... so what?
Well, we can say that the nintoaster was used for the first time, on the Action 52 rewiev, but do we need to say that he keep using it? we can assume he will use it from now on. what do you think? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.196.232.252 (talk) 09:06, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
- I agree, him using it is very trivial, and not important in any way to the game he is reviewing. CTJF83 chat 16:53, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
Page needs simplification
We might want to remove the synopsis of each episode. As it stands now, the page might be considered an "episode guide" which is against Wiki policies. I suggest that the description cell only contains games reviewed. Otherwise, this page can become ridiculously complex. -DevinCook (talk) 13:32, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- Agreed, I've cleaned up before, but you know how IPs go... CTJF83 chat 02:13, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
