I'm on my way to uni, but I remember him defending Penny Arcade and there was a picture of a dog involving something to do with rape - though there's a new thread about him now, and most of the stuff in the OP sums up why the Jimquisition irritated me. Also, I probably do have a bit of a thin skin when it comes to jokes about women, especially women who play games - companies like Valve and Bioware make it seem like we're progressing, so in light of their advances any setback seems magnified (I think). At least that's the best theory I can come up with right now. Bus time!
He's made stranger claims straight faced in the past.Necromancer Jim said:
That said I do think it's a joke. It's just a very bad one.

I'm somewhat glad the show's changed from the first one - less swearing, better sound quality, and he's got himself a podium so he can smash his fists to emphasise his point. It's an improvement the first one, for sure.
That being said, the MSPaint really stops the flow.
But, you know, you can't have everything. I'll keep watching for a while.
Thats it his done for, I would say it was nice knowing you Jim, but we both know we'd be lying.
If this week's video was a joke, it was a poor one.
Jim better pick it up, or I think I'll stop watching.

At first I thought this guy was a complete retard, until I realised this is probably irony.I still have no idea if he is serious. If this is all irony, the tits and lesbians on the thumbnails are a representation of the state of current gaming's sexuality, and the oversized sunnies are a jab at stereotypical maximum overmacho white male heroes, keep this show. If this guy is just what he shows, I dont wanna hear his voice again.
I though it was ok, sometimes humerous. I've been watching him on youtube though and so far I've found those to be better all around. Maybe give him a bit more time.
Looking like a slut has never been sexy. I do not share his views.
May sound weird but I actually need to be able to respect the person I'm gonna stick it to in order to even get it up.

Objectification for both genders is a grand idea, as is objectification for all sexual preferences - I am rather partial for petite, effeminate males providing they aren't Camp Gay about it.HankMan said:
However, the way this guy presents that outlook just grates my teeth. Seriously, I think I'm getting toothache watching his videos.
The problem with this guy is he's swinging at every target, and he's missing every target. He can't do serious, informative stuff like Extra Credits, he's nowhere near as funny as Yahtzee and he has less charisma than your average NPC.
Also, if he makes a video to prove how 'cool' he is by 'doing a Yahtzee' and slagging off everyone who complains about him as complete retards, I am lodging formal complaints against the site.
I like shock jock humor. This is good enough to stay.
This is not the best video series on this site, but it doesn't deserve to get booted.
And if you don't like it don't click the frelling link to the video!

Saw the two youtube ones in post 22 and decided to give him a strike 3.
Does this guy take his audience seriously ? I am seriously starting to wonder.
Perhaps the other sites he contributes to aren't as the escapist and he needs a seperate
atitude towards them.
Btw just because you claim to be a douchebag doesn't make it okay.
This might sound weird but he reminds me of jeremy clarkson without any flair.
a funny douchebag who everyone knows if a funny douchbag in the end is till funny.
This guy just comes over as someone who got punched in class too many times now found a way to vent. a regular , seen too many times regular "i think i know it and going to tell you kinda" douche
Anyways, going to watch nr 3 and hope for more of the youtube quality.
BTW stop with the boob & lesbian pics in your pics of your show.
You just degraded the entire comunity here *this isn't youtube, make a good show and you wont need those *wink wink*

Okay this one made me laugh. I will state that the first one wasn't as good but did bring up some good points. So did this one. If we're gonna be sexist, lets be sexist to both sexes XD Equal objectification!
All kidding asside, i think he's right. Mostly. Woman are always being objectified or ignored in games. If men were in bikinis like the women, we wouldn't see it as objectification. Don't believe me? Put the man in a bikini and the woman in full armor: It'll look like we're objectifying men.
But, i think i'd still prefer a range of "sexy" and "non-sexy" (what i mean is, characters that are "sexy" in different ways, not just the conventional, popular ways of today) characters who are well written and 3-dimensional.
