Title: Classic Game Room reviews the Core Grafx
Post by: c0ldb33r on September 07, 2013, 09:05:30 AM
Nice CGR video about the CGFX.
I like the end - (spoiler): I LOVE THE PC ENGINE
Also, I didn't know you could use a Gen 1 Genesis AC adapter/video cables for a CGFX.
edit: Apparently he also reviewed Final Soldier ()

Yeah he's apparently starting to obey the PC Engine properly now. I hope he make more reviews.

Me too but his reviews are almost nonsensical but entertaining for sure. I sent him a bunch of neo geo stuff, mostly my doubles. I never miss an episode.

People,have been bugging mark to review more TG16/PCE games etc for a long time now.Once he got a donation he was able to 'which seems to be,how he reviews most retro games these days.

a core grafx donation? judging his stuff he owns, he could buy a DUO and few master piece games easily with some of his tip money.

Yup the coregrafx is a borrow he mentions it in the review.He could,buy a duo but i think his $ is tied up in the arcade cabs.

Yeah not a fan either. I've seen a bunch but always wish I had my life back after I watched it. I don't understan why his channel is so popular. I don't think he's amusing/informative/entertaining at all and him bitching about getting a loaner and having to return it two episodes in a row was really shitty.

You can buy a CoreGrafx shipped for the price of a new release game at a retail store. CoreGrafx and white PCE systems are so cheap that it's not worth shipping both ways to lend one, as you could just buy one for not much more than the cost of all the shipping. It'd be cheaper to just buy one if you're dealing with Canada Post.

Based on his Ridge Racer 7 "review" he should've showed off how arcade accurate Xevious is. Not to mention the SUPERIOR pc-e version!. :D
I'll lend him my copy.

He's a SEGA fanboi for sure. But I still like what he does. Very tongue in cheek and very little seriousness. I would love to see more turbo reviews however.

Post by: roflmao on September 11, 2013, 06:04:04 PM
I've been a long time fan of CGR, but now that he's reviewing PCE material it's a bittersweet feeling. His show gets so many views it's inevitably going to even further increase the cost to purchase obey.
His latest review of Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu () made me lol more than once, and now I'm pretty sure I'll never be able to pick up even the PCE version for a reasonable price.

Someone should bite the bullet and donate a PCE Duo-R or Duo-RX to Mark, I don't know if he'll buy one himself and he really should play CD games too... all he actually owns is a US TG16.
And yeah, he's not impartial for sure, and I don't always agree with his reviews, but regardless, he's a great reviewer, definitely at least one of the best on Youtube.

donate that shit to me instead, I'll make opionated videos. I'm tired of all this suggestion members here should donate to these youtubers, reviewers, ect. when they have money to but shit on thier own. How about he takes some of the money he gets from his youtube channel and buys his own. why should the good members here bear the burden for others. I'm sure he's an agreeable guy and all, but what makes him a better recieptent then any member here that can't affoard a Duo?

Mark posts a review pretty much every single day, you know, and the quality level is consistent (in the main channel; the "CGR Undertow" subchannel with those other guys is mixed in quality). Most videogame Youtube channels definitely do not get anywhere remotely near that volume of content, not unless they're connected to a major website... he has both volume and quality, a very rare combination.

Why should we donate anything to him? Seems like he does good enough on his own to be to afford a Duo. Regardless I think his reviews are really just ramblings. If he likes it that much why doesn't he just buy one? Oh wait! He was asked/told/persuaded to do these reviews.

(http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png) I owned a 1989 Ford Festiva L (burgundy red) when I lived in CA. I loved that golf cart (very little maintenance, great gas mileage). The only reason I sold it was because I could only tow one vehicle across the country.
ON TOPIC: The CGR guy isn't a serious reviewer...he has refined (dare I say "perfected") his shtick to the point where he is consistently amusing to me. Some of the aspects of CGR that annoy others (for example, he repeats himself all the time) have grown on me...and I admit that there are FAR WORSE THINGS out there. As entertainment, I like CGR. Yup, I like him.
That said, I really don't like the ostentatious display of materialism in CGR. Mr. CGR does not need to impress me with his cavernous hangar chock-full of vehicles and video game paraphernalia. By all means, show me the game and hardware when it is relevant (I like that), but that's it. Many scenes in the show feel like pap from MTV CGR CRIBS...
(http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)
DISCLAIMER: I haven't watched his PCE episodes.

I've never seen this addressed: what is a "journalistic review"?
This CGR guy doesn't seem to have any journalistic knowledge, credentials, or ability. He doesn't do simple background research on many of his topics, his shares his opinions and sometimes misinformation is all. That is not journalism.
edit: oh I see he no longer prefaces his videos with that "A Journalistic Review" nonsense.

I have always thought that he meant that mostly as a joke. Note how now it says "The cure for the corporate review" -- kind of a new way of saying the same thing. It's probably part dig at the questionable quality of a lot of professional game reviewing, too... not sure on that point though.
However, Mark has been doing internet game reviews on and off since 1999. First person on the internet to do a video review show, apparently... or at least that's what he's said before on the show. Even if you are absolutely right that he doesn't research the games he's reviewing enough and thus often doesn't mention a lot of important information, he's been doing this for a long time, and that's got to be a "journalistic" qualification of some kind for sure!

I've been subscribed to his Youtube channel for some years now, and have probably watched most all of its videos. They're definitely not all good, but enough are that I definitely find it worth continuing to watch. That is not the case with Undertow, I often skip those...
As for the questions about free stuff, yeah, I'm sure he could buy that stuff himself, but I can understand how people who have been receiving lots of free stuff wouldn't feel the need to bother, when they get so much stuff sent to them for free... he probably has to buy the modern games they review, though, unless they're sent press copies.

I would love to know how much ad revenue CGR generates. I know that the only folks who make any decent money are the ones with THE BIG NUMBERS (subscribers, views, viewing time, desirable demographics of viewers, etc.). It seems that CGR might make some $$$, but how much? And how many hours does CGR invest in creating content?

Post by: Jibbajaba on September 20, 2013, 10:25:05 AM
As I understand it, the average is about $2.50 per 1,000 views, but there are too many variables at play to really nail it down. I have no doubt that he is making a full-time income off of YT, but remember that it comes with NO benefits. Making YT videos is fun, and if you can make some scratch on the side then that's awesome, but I sure wouldn't want my mortgage payment to depend on it.

YT has a metric for how long folks watch a video...plus more sophisticated measures...I know advertisers care a lot about the demographics of the audience because they want to target advertisements.
Not all age/gender/race-ethnicity/etc. intersections are equally valuable to advertisers...
My videos, for example, attract women over 80 years of age, and children under 1 year. NO MONEY IN THOSE DEMOGRAPHICS. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)

Just like with other image-based businesses, his cash cow is likely his merchandising. Although encouraging donations of all kinds has been proven to be lucrative as well.

Well I don't want to make anyone jealous, but I just checked the Analytics page on my YouTube account, and I'm up to $0.46. So we're living large over here at Classic Gaming Quarterly...
In all honesty, the fact that I've made 50 cents on like 11 videos in less than two months really isn't bad. It's more money than my website has generated in its entire lifetime. You can definitely see the potential in regularly uploading decent quality content, as the money grows nearly exponentially, since more videos -> more views -> more subs -> more views. I haven't uploaded anything in a couple of weeks, but need to get back on the stick. It's the voice-over stuff that's a pain in the ass.

Hey now, that's nobody's bidness! But more than 46 cents. :)
I'm currently editing a video with this Classic Game Room guy in it. Looking at the audio waveform is humorous because of the crazy amounts of space between random words in a sentence. But rarely ever spaces between actual sentences. Many random pauses in his speech.

Post by: Trenton_net on October 06, 2013, 05:30:31 AM
IMHO, I thought the review was rather shallow. He could have spoken more about the expansion, add-ons, variants, kinds of video outputs, etc. If he really wanted to go for the gold, he would have opened up the TG16 and PC Engine to compare the insides to see why one is bigger than the other.
But I do realize the PC engine was on loan. But that's so lame, because given his popularity there is no real excuse for not picking one up for his own review.

His reviews border on the nonsensical. He mostly goes for the laughs, but they come off as corny and quite forced.
I will say he has a bunch of committed YT supporters. Anything remotely negative aimed at their beloved Mark and you can be sure they'll be up in arms.

The comments on that video are awful. Most people are talking about the KFDMF reference or whatever instead of the game. Anyway the next episode of whatever my show is (forget the name at the moment) will also have Insanity. :)

Seeing him playing Frenzy while blasting that soundtrack made my day.
That was hilarious.
Maybe this will trigger a surge of Xbox Live purchases. I think if I sell, like 90 more, I actually get paid like 30$ from them!
