Honestly, the caliber of the competition is beneath you. I enjoy the Game Overthinker precisely because it operates on a level of thought far above most of the other material out there, popular things included. I feel that the comparison here diminishes you, but if you want the votes on this, you've got mine.
hard truth: your vids on screw attack suck loading wise, they lag a lot and the audio isnt even close to the visual so stop posting them there, we dont like it and i bet you dont either.
If it's not too much trouble could you please post that video here on youtube? I went to the link in the description but the video there lags a lot (the audio gets very far behind the visuals).
Gaaaaah, I can't seem to find any info on screwattack!
But judging from a few of the comments I have seen here, it seems you won the contest. Well, all I have to say is ... AWESOME!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! YOU ROCK!!!!!!
Moviebob, A-Fucking-Plus! You have really gotten me thinking about this. I think I'll be writing to our people. Our Senators. You've got the right idea and the best "metaphorical" weapon that this turn of the century's gamers have ever dared to dream for. I want to say thanks. For all of us.
Weeks ago, this video really gave me enthusiasm, and I ended up emailing the two senators of California, my state. But don't be alarmed when one of your viewers does what you ask. I put a lot of thought and reasoning in my email, I was polite, and I sounded professional.
Since I didn't expect them to take any sides of this arguement (I doubt any senators actually do), I did ask that they vote against potential gaming censoring laws, and take the intelligent-sounding 14 year old's word for it.
I love how VVG haters (Often Soccer Moms) seem to have a bone to pick when they are the ones who should of watched little Peter as picked out GTA4 instead of having a facial and abandoning him at EB. Plus the fact that they are too STUPID to read the ratings befor purchase (In Australia, VG have the same rating as the Movies (G, PG, M, MA and R) so it's not THAT much of a problem.
One of the topics I'd like to see you do is these fucking organizations treating video game addiction like a disease. These websites are fucking stupid.
While, out of principle, I don't think pre-teens should be allowed to play violent video games, there is in fact no direct corrilation between video game violence and actual violence. In fact, it's been found that more often than not it has the opposite effect and helps to curb violent behavior. A serial killer may have the same video games as a average upstanding citizen.
Regardless, this should be an interesting episode.
I don't think the Game Overthinker will win, sadly. From the comments I've son on Screw Attack, the majority of the commuity doesn't want to think, it's all "I don't care just scream, yell, and swear and entertain me". Sad, really.
But, there is still hope, so I hope you win Game Overthinker.
actually, i think he will win. i watched and read comments for both vids and while both sides got praised and bashed, more ppl were bashing the japanese guy. also, game overthinker had at least three more pages of comments than the other guy
There's been some very great discussion going on in the comments section for that video from the G1s that are actually smart enough to actually have a brain and be using it unlike the other so called G1s that just want comedy and the usual same old crap that ScrewAttack already has which has already been done to death over a million times by now!
Things are definitely looking in the Game Over Thinker's favor which I'm absolutely very happy and pleased to see happening.
I don't really know how well the contest is doing, but I'm starting to think that some of the G1s on the ScrewAttack forums are voting for Psychotaku.
I don't wanna end up watching yet another vrntertainment show based on video games even though Psychotaku's show is talking about Japanese imports! But I strongly feel that ScrewAttack needs a show like Game Over Thinker that will MAKE PEOPLE THINK and have people offering they're very own opinions on whatever topic GOT is talking about!
And I absolutely do hope that it's not Psychotaku, because if Psychotaku wins, then I'm not even going to bother visiting or having anything 2 do with ScrewAttack, but that's just me and my own opinion.
I'll still watch the Angry Video Game Nerd on GameTrailers which is still a part of ScrewAttack, and I'll still watch "Hard News" and they're Video Game Vaults & Top 10s, but that's all that I'll ever watch from ScrewAttack if Psychotaku is announced the winner at SGC in the next week!
Wow. Radnom dedication to something really stupid. SA has great videos and you should not stop watching their stuff because they did not do what you wanted. The clips fo the week for instance are pure gold.
Dude, he hasn't even won yet and the contest isn't even over either! Don't go jumping to conclusions like "he's probably going to go the whole AVGN route" because we don't even fucking know how it's going to workout if he does win, which HE SHOULD win!!
Just wait until the winner is announced at SGC, which I do hope and pray to God almighty is the Game Over Thinker in my very honest opinion!
The biggest change is seeing yourself in the video. Although it wasn't for long, I'd advise against making yourself a focal image; keep your focus on your message, because that's where you shine. Other game vloggers create personas to make up for their lack of quality content, which only adds to the ingenuine feel.
You also wore a Bowser shirt in the video. It's cool, but also kind of looks like you're pandering to the audience in a "look, I really AM a gamer!" sort of way. Don't overdo it!
Another enjoyable installment...and I've really been waiting for one, too! I've noticed a few changes to your usual format, and thought I'd share my thoughts on them...
At one point you suggest those who act out in a way you disagree with to smash their faces into a wall. If I recall correctly, this is the first time you've been directly offensive toward your opponents. PLEASE don't slip into this. What you have to say is too worthwhile to be eclipsed by the "abrasive" tone others employ.
I used to love ScrewAttack, but not so much anymore. It's now just a "failed" attempt a frat guy gaming site. Every other video has the guy with the 5 year old haircut (Destin) yelling at the camera and trying to be "EXTREME" in a humorous way, but just not coming across as anything but an idiot.
I'm not gonna say SA sucked when Tom left, it sure started to stink around that same time.
Bah, my point is, I would LOVE to LOVE ScrewAttack again, and having you on the site would make it GREAT.
thank you... and you are laying.. moviebob you have benn on screen in the oscar's episode in the escapist... so dont lie to me :( also... !! damn good transformer review!!!
And there's alot of so called G1s out there that are saying absolutely ridiculous and stupid shit on the forums like "The whole contest was rigged so Game Over Thinker could win" abd all sorts of absolutely obscene, ridiculous bullshit like that from these so called G1s who don't even have a fucking brain to let alone use to even try and comprehend or even come to terms or realize that the reason that why Moviebob is posting these promotion vids is to ENCOURAGE people to go 2 the site and vote
I voted for you Moviebob, and you absolutely MUST win this contest! I don't really see Psychotaku that entertaining even though he does have some stuff going for him, but not very much.
Everyone who hasn't voted for Game Over Thinker go sign up for ScrewAttack forums and vote until the SGC starts, we must have the Game Over Thinker as the newest feature on ScrewAttack no matter what all the bashers and haters have to say who aren't fans of him or his videos!
On that subject matter in the vid..I'll be honest with what I think, you know what really needs to be done. Gaming Companies need to start lobbying, The reason politicians haven't said anything nice about video game is because they're not seeing any money from us...they know that the gaming industry is making more money now than the film industry...and unlike the film industry....they're wondering where there share of the money is...0o
I like how you make interesting, in-depth 10 minute long videos while Psychotaku makes 30 second trailer looking videos and all the morons over at ScrewAttack vote for him without any good reason whatsoever.
I'll be frank, I like OverThinker a LOT more when he's talking about our hobby rather than getting into more of that pointless "US vs THEM" bullshit.
I know one little comment isn't gonna steer where you choose to go with your next episode, but I just want to say that delving into the deeper meaning behind games and their characters and the psychology involved in playing games and how it differs genre to genre would be a hell of a lot more entertaining than being preached at for 12 minutes.
Wait, the first time? What about those pictures of yourself as Mario? The Duke Nukem spoof? Your "Dark Knight should win Best Picture and the Academy needs to treat superhero movies with respect" video?
I just think it's odd that you have to compete in this contest. Why didn't Screwattack automatically pick you up? I mean you were competing against people like yahtzee in their own 1337 awards. I'm just saying.
I liked the comparison to the comic book industry. So few people realize how horrible it really was. Only 3 comics survived interruption of publication during that time: Batman, Superman and Wonder woman. And they only survived because they went by the "rules" and toned everything down.
Yeah moviebob I saw your episode 24. I always loved that topic, and got real heated about censorship. I normally say look at all the other violent mediums, and how society was fine then. And how the ignorant still wanted censorship. I never thought of bringing up a games deeper meaning, or mass market.
I really like how you idolized both the AVGN and Zero Punctuation, and now you're actually on BOTH of their sites. Not bad, eh?
And didn't you appear on screen for the Oscar show (arguably that wasn't Game Overthinker, it was MovieBob) and in that DNF skit with the cigar? Don't want to pick holes, but...
I believe what you're trying to say in the 25th episode is that you are indeed a real American and you are in fact fighting for the rights of every man. Am I correct?
What I don't understand is how anyone sees Psychotaku as a challenge to GameOverthinker. I'm not bashing the guy but seriously, what has he done? I've searched all over and have only found ONE video by him. Also a website but everyone has one of those. Does he have a YouTube channel? Honestly I'd like to know what makes that guy popular enough to go against GameOverthinker, besides speaking in Japanese.
In all seriousness, I think Psychotaku makes a TERRIFIC show - it's an extremely odd premise but he nails the delivery and commits to the premise 100%. He's incredibly talented and creative as hell.
I agree that Psychotaku is a great show that deserves more credit than a lot of people give him. True, his latest video was probably the weakest so far, but the video quality is much higher than most internet fare, and I'm sure things will improve as he does more work. I think a lot of hate against him comes from blind fans of yours not giving a chance because he is running against you. You'd think fans of somebody called the "Game Overthinker" would use their brains a bit more than that.
Hey there Moviebob, there's a user on the ScrewAttack forums who's falsely assuming that you're "stealing content" by downloading pictures that are copyrighted from other sites as IGN, The Simpsons, and other various sources and can't even get it through his thick headed skull that you're using these images under the fair use policy, as well as clearly missing the point of you're videos entirely!
His user name on the forums is Ice-Climber by the way just to let you know.
Not all images are fair use. Unless they are given proper citations then it is plagarism. Now I do not know if Moveibob here cites his stuff somewhere but I will sa that half of Youtube posters plagarise content unknowingly.
Jesus christ, I checked out Psychotaku's videos and it reminded me why I left the screwattack forums.
I'm sure you'll win, hopefully by a landslide, but the fact that anyone can vote in favour of Psychotaku's horrible fucking videos shows how truly awful that community is.
And congrats again on your success with the excapist and now SA, you deserve it :)
We had a speaking competition a few months ago and my topic was similar to yours. The given speech time was 8 minutes, my speech took 14. At the end, everybody was blown away by my "smart fighting", even elder teachers who previously prejudiced video games came to me at the following brake and wanted to discuss this topic with me. I had the feeling that most of them believed me and at least overthink their prejudices. So what I want to say is, that if you fight smart, you can achieve something!
LEAD US!!! This video is the best of all that you have done! I have seen it, you have more Intelligence than any gamer I have ever seen! If you lead the charge for this debate, I would follow you to hell and back!!!
Your Game Overthinker videos are great! They really inform me about how to stand up for video games. They help me become informed! Hope you win, you deserve it!
Hey, you've been on Camera before... yeah it was for Moviebob movie type stuff, but your appearance is no longer jarring.
Further: You are too harsh on Wertham; he was just a victim of the all too common assumption of correlation meaning causation. In his extensive work with juvenile delinquents, he found a LOT of mass media worship among them. Imagine if video games were nothing BUT vapid, gory GTA clones. That WAS comics in the 50s. Superheroes had already died out, killed by Crime comics.
I'm the furthest thing from a fanboy you'll EVER get... but I have to say you earned this one, man. Your episodes are always awesome... and I'm trying to earn my degrees to teach college level classes. I hope that tells you something.
Everyone join ScrewAttack (even if you don't like them) and vote for the Overthinker! We would be guarenteed to see more of them more frequently! C'mon, guys, don't let that annoying Japanese wanna-be AVGN win!
amazing video, but PLEASE put it on youtube, screwattack's player can really fuck up my proccessor on longer videos and im sure youre fans with slower computers are having similair problems
Kick some ass *figuratively* and take names man. Every time you've requested that you help you out in some way, I've been there and I always will be. I've already voted and here's hoping you win.
bob, i know you recongnize my handle i write after everydamn video, cause you say everything ive thought myself(i like yo am an older gamer/comic fan) and yeah, my mom is one of those , fox news watching., belivning video games cause violince ppl and what she want now? a wii ...which is what im going to get her lol, like you said , we need to fight smarter and good luck on the contest, your toot talented not to get famous for this
But there's also alot of assholes on the ScrewAttack forums who are against Game Over Thinker and saying alot of false, fabricated bullshit about him to try and steer people away from voting for him which needs to be reported to the forum mods.
Game Over Thinker for the finals and for the newest feature as part of the ScrewAttack lineup for the most epic win!
I'm a daily SA forum-goer and you're partially right. But it's because the Overthinker is a divisive character. The competition with Psychotaku is close. Both video series are excellent. I went with the Overthinker though. His videos are highly thought provoking, even if I don't always agree with him.
It might be 1:13 AM in the morning right now when I saw this vid, but fuck I am going to watch your episode, because screw attack needs someone like you and intelligent semi N - Fanboy who says it like it is!
Oh and I like pretty much all your videos too, better than psycotaku anyway.
Damn bob, for some reason all of the Psychotaku fans absolutely HATE you! No idea why. I looked at the thread and all of the people voting Psychotaku were saying things like "OMFG IF I SEE GOT ON THE SITE I'M GONNA NEVER COME HERE AGAIN ASKLDHAJSDH"
This isn't the first time we've seen you on screen in the Overthinker, sure you were heavily obscured in the Duke Nukem Forever riff, but you were still there. Also, the Oscar vid on the Escapist.
i hope psychotaku doesn't win, he's kinda lame. you really have the type of voice the gaming community needs. you actually provide some insight in the gaming industry, and aren't just "OOOH LOOK AT TEH GRFX!!!"
Psychotaku isn't even that entertaining to me because he doesn't go very in depth about the import games that he reviews and he tries too hard to look like Naruto with his ridiculous outfit.
I tried giving him a chance, but he just absolutely doesn't fit the ScrewAttack lineup to me whatsoever. Game Over Thinker absolutely has to and MUST win, fuck all the bashers and haters who say otherwise on the ScrewAttack forums!

I'll be frank, I like OverThinker a LOT more when he's talking about our hobby rather than getting into more of that pointless "US vs THEM" bullshit.
I know one little comment isn't gonna steer where you choose to go with your next episode, but I just want to say that delving into the deeper meaning behind games and their characters and the psychology involved in playing games and how it differs genre to genre would be a hell of a lot more entertaining than being preached at for 12 minutes.

I liked the comparison to the comic book industry. So few people realize how horrible it really was. Only 3 comics survived interruption of publication during that time: Batman, Superman and Wonder woman. And they only survived because they went by the "rules" and toned everything down.

Yeah moviebob I saw your episode 24. I always loved that topic, and got real heated about censorship. I normally say look at all the other violent mediums, and how society was fine then. And how the ignorant still wanted censorship. I never thought of bringing up a games deeper meaning, or mass market.
goldeyeblue 2 years ago
I really like how you idolized both the AVGN and Zero Punctuation, and now you're actually on BOTH of their sites. Not bad, eh?
And didn't you appear on screen for the Oscar show (arguably that wasn't Game Overthinker, it was MovieBob) and in that DNF skit with the cigar? Don't want to pick holes, but...
Also, I'm definitely voting for ya'll. Well done.

What I don't understand is how anyone sees Psychotaku as a challenge to GameOverthinker. I'm not bashing the guy but seriously, what has he done? I've searched all over and have only found ONE video by him. Also a website but everyone has one of those. Does he have a YouTube channel? Honestly I'd like to know what makes that guy popular enough to go against GameOverthinker, besides speaking in Japanese.

In all seriousness, I think Psychotaku makes a TERRIFIC show - it's an extremely odd premise but he nails the delivery and commits to the premise 100%. He's incredibly talented and creative as hell.
moviebob 2 years ago
I agree that Psychotaku is a great show that deserves more credit than a lot of people give him. True, his latest video was probably the weakest so far, but the video quality is much higher than most internet fare, and I'm sure things will improve as he does more work. I think a lot of hate against him comes from blind fans of yours not giving a chance because he is running against you. You'd think fans of somebody called the "Game Overthinker" would use their brains a bit more than that.

Hey there Moviebob, there's a user on the ScrewAttack forums who's falsely assuming that you're "stealing content" by downloading pictures that are copyrighted from other sites as IGN, The Simpsons, and other various sources and can't even get it through his thick headed skull that you're using these images under the fair use policy, as well as clearly missing the point of you're videos entirely!
His user name on the forums is Ice-Climber by the way just to let you know.
BigBoss198387 2 years ago 2
Not all images are fair use. Unless they are given proper citations then it is plagarism. Now I do not know if Moveibob here cites his stuff somewhere but I will sa that half of Youtube posters plagarise content unknowingly.

Jesus christ, I checked out Psychotaku's videos and it reminded me why I left the screwattack forums.
I'm sure you'll win, hopefully by a landslide, but the fact that anyone can vote in favour of Psychotaku's horrible fucking videos shows how truly awful that community is.
And congrats again on your success with the excapist and now SA, you deserve it :)

We had a speaking competition a few months ago and my topic was similar to yours. The given speech time was 8 minutes, my speech took 14. At the end, everybody was blown away by my "smart fighting", even elder teachers who previously prejudiced video games came to me at the following brake and wanted to discuss this topic with me. I had the feeling that most of them believed me and at least overthink their prejudices. So what I want to say is, that if you fight smart, you can achieve something!

Hi moviebob,
I believe this was one of your strongest videos to date! You're definitely going strong into the finals.
I do think this video had a bit of a dictatorship/preaching air to it, which I didn't enjoy. But nonetheless, it was an excellent entry.
I can tell you put a lot of heart into this one.
Best of luck

Hey, you've been on Camera before... yeah it was for Moviebob movie type stuff, but your appearance is no longer jarring.
Further: You are too harsh on Wertham; he was just a victim of the all too common assumption of correlation meaning causation. In his extensive work with juvenile delinquents, he found a LOT of mass media worship among them. Imagine if video games were nothing BUT vapid, gory GTA clones. That WAS comics in the 50s. Superheroes had already died out, killed by Crime comics.

But there's also alot of assholes on the ScrewAttack forums who are against Game Over Thinker and saying alot of false, fabricated bullshit about him to try and steer people away from voting for him which needs to be reported to the forum mods.
Game Over Thinker for the finals and for the newest feature as part of the ScrewAttack lineup for the most epic win!
BigBoss198387 2 years ago 2
I'm a daily SA forum-goer and you're partially right. But it's because the Overthinker is a divisive character. The competition with Psychotaku is close. Both video series are excellent. I went with the Overthinker though. His videos are highly thought provoking, even if I don't always agree with him.
TomeOfDarkness 2 years ago
It might be 1:13 AM in the morning right now when I saw this vid, but fuck I am going to watch your episode, because screw attack needs someone like you and intelligent semi N - Fanboy who says it like it is!

Psychotaku isn't even that entertaining to me because he doesn't go very in depth about the import games that he reviews and he tries too hard to look like Naruto with his ridiculous outfit.
I tried giving him a chance, but he just absolutely doesn't fit the ScrewAttack lineup to me whatsoever. Game Over Thinker absolutely has to and MUST win, fuck all the bashers and haters who say otherwise on the ScrewAttack forums!
