Jim, how do you respond to allegations that you are “phoning in” your segments of Jim and Yahtzee’s Rhymedown Spectacular?
That said, I love your stuff. Thank god for you.
I know you’ve mentioned the xbone and ps4 a lot on Jimquistion but what is your feeling on Nintendo? Do you think they will be able to recover from the marketing gaff that is the Wii U?
I enjoy your Movie Defense Force Videos, but is there any movie that you feel is completely undefendable. It is so bad and so awful that there is absolutely no redeeming qualities worth defending?
Jim, how would you describe your perfect video game? what would be in it, and what would the storyline be?
Livin’ Thing or Telephone Line?
