100%. James a legend in the FGC, and for good reason. One of the few people still in the scene who has been there since the earliest of early days. I can listen to him talk FGC history all day. His enthusiasm is unmatched and it always translates perfectly to the audience. Almost all of my favorite moments over the years involve him calling the match. Daigo VS Valle at SCR 2010, Kusoru VS FChamp at Final Round, Infiltration Hakan VS PRBalrog at Evo, Valle Hugo VS Bonchan Sagat at Evo where his excitement is just explosive haha, etc etc.
Thank you for having James Chen on! He's been my favorite FGC personality since I first saw him commentating Wednesday Night Fights with UltraDavid over a decade ago! The long hair suites him, too ^_^
These are so much fun. Love playing along, love getting to know the players a bit better. They are always so fun and humble. The questions are always challenging but not crazily so. JM makes a damn good game show host. I just wish these kinda things came out more often :)
I appreciate all the work that's going into putting this kind of content together. Hope its fun for you and for the guests cause I'd love to keep seeing it pop up.
I love the lifelines because I’ve definitely seen top players get coaching even though no coaching was allowed and also them getting preferential bracket treatment. Not in official tournaments but that definitely used to happen during the sc4 days and prior
The only time I saw James Chen blink was when he didn’t know why Nakano Sagat was wearing a tee shirt with a 1993 on it during a CEO ST tournament. Nakano won a 1993 st2 turbo snes tournament with sagat.
i have never played a fighting game in my life besidesmortal combat 3. suck at playing them but love fighting game content. love jmcrofts, justin wong and max
I've always thought counting the first active frame as a startup frame is really dumb. Startup frames = frames the move is starting up, but not yet active. Active frames = frames the move is active, and can land a hit. Recovery frames = frames that are no longer active, but you still don't have character control.
I as well am a pot monster Mr Crofts 😂🥴 but prolly wouldnt win tho lmao i only know like 2 of the questions each round 😂 anyways another great video 💪🏾
thats not even all of the gokus. there’s goku’s dad, goku’s oldest son (in adult form), goku’s oldest son (in teen ssj2 form), goku’s youngest son fused with vegeta’s son, goku possessed by zamas fused with another zamas, goku potara fused with vegeta, monke goku fused with monke vegeta, and goku fusion dance with vegeta with blue hair. and ginyu can body change with goku mid-match. and super baby 2 can steal your goku’s assists mid-match.
The jmcrofts FGC gameshows are some of the best FGC content on TH-cam. This stuff really needs to be seen by more people, it's epic.
Very much second this
So much work to do stuff like this. You're a hero JM, top 5 FGC content creators
Free
When's the watchmojo top five fgc content creators vido
@@StrigWilson LOL
I miss James Chen's voice during during tournaments. The whole SF4 era and highlights would not be the same without this man commentating it.
Agreed

That was cool! I miss offline tournaments and James commenting. His dad jokes are always on point.
You mean: "Allright! That's cool!"
JM trivia is the best, we need another jmpardy some day
Thank you for having James Chen on! He's been my favorite FGC personality since I first saw him commentating Wednesday Night Fights with UltraDavid over a decade ago!
The long hair suites him, too ^_^
Me, rolling a fat joint: I am something of a pot monster myself.
Love this content! Amazing that you got James in your game show. FGC icon
James got some magnificent hair
"Six characters with Goku in the name" is exactly what I was hoping DBFZ would NOT lean on
He's so happy! I adore James' vibe, laughing through absolutely everything. I love your gameshow content, thank you JM!
So great to see James Chen more "in person"... just realized I hear him in like hundreds of game broadcasts but never really knew too much about him!!
that was awesome jm
totally didnt expect james chen wow xD
These are so much fun. Love playing along, love getting to know the players a bit better. They are always so fun and humble. The questions are always challenging but not crazily so.
JM makes a damn good game show host. I just wish these kinda things came out more often :)
I love James Chen's enthusiasm about everything FGC. I always catch myself geeking out with him subconsciously.
13:41 JMCrofts channeling his other self: Sean Evans
jmcroft gameshows during any major tournament would be so godlike
Looking forward to James Chen coming back for the pot monster tournament of champions!
I love these gameshows as a relative FGC noob, exposes me to a lot of stuff I don't know about history and the games I don't play. Keep it up!
Always love the game shows. Very clever.
Jmcrofts and Sajam are doing an amazing job with the FGC game shows! I love the content they are putting out
I appreciate all the work that's going into putting this kind of content together. Hope its fun for you and for the guests cause I'd love to keep seeing it pop up.
Love this series already, excited to see some of my fave FGC faces show up.
I'm not surprised by this thumbnail. James Chen is a name I've known since the GameFAQ days!
JM this is some top quality content man, I could watch it all day. Great work!
Loving this series! Awesome to see James on the show! He's rocking the lion's mane!
I read james chen and I always get that unblockable feeling that I need to smash that like and watch instantly.!
Fantastic show, questions, and especially guests! Thanks jmcrofts!
These fgc game shows are the best! Keep ‘em coming. Top tier content!
Cool stuff bro. Love seeing you guys promote fighting games and getting to see fighting game ogs
Loving the variety of your content for the FGC man! Really creative, entertaining, and informative!
Love these! great job all around
This was great! Thank you for the entertainment
Man, everytime JM makes a gameshow I always imagine hosting it at EVO or at some tournament xD
this one was a banger! You never miss with these, JM
The very first version of the raging demon input did not have the HP at the end so that would have been an acceptable answer too
True, the demon wasn't in regular Super Turbo and debuted in Alpha 1. For some reason, the console version added the extra input.
James whipped and naenaed all over this quiz this man is a wizard
Thanks for the great content JM! I am a very casual fgc player but really love your work. Appreciate the effort in these videos, very entertaining.
tihs show is so fun to play along with
I made it out of pools btw :D
James is a treasure of the FGC
Damn, I knew almost them all! Would have failed on the Gokus and ClearLamp questions only!
I need more fgc gameshows in my life.
Loving the content Crofts! Keep it rolling!
much love brothers, take it easy. great stuff.
As a fighting game nerd I love playing these along.
Keep em coming JM :)
You’re not a nerd… you’re a geek.
I love the lifelines because I’ve definitely seen top players get coaching even though no coaching was allowed and also them getting preferential bracket treatment. Not in official tournaments but that definitely used to happen during the sc4 days and prior
That frame knowledge!
James is like a walking encyclopedia of FGC knowledge..
Getting some Hot Ones vibes and I'm all for it
When I heard "modern nomenclature" I knew it was a wrap
These are so fun to watch!
This is delightful and fun :) Great work
that slumdog millionaire moment with the broken gamecube reasoning out SoulCalibur was hilarious
I may not be as smart as a pot monster but I am roughly as smart as a pot buster
Been waitin for this
I would love to be on one of these, JM really make the best fgc trivia games 😭
LMAO that pic of julio answering his phone feels like it was forever ago (it was only 5 years tho iirc)
The only time I saw James Chen blink was when he didn’t know why Nakano Sagat was wearing a tee shirt with a 1993 on it during a CEO ST tournament. Nakano won a 1993 st2 turbo snes tournament with sagat.
Love JM Content especially the game shows. Also I’ll have you know I got the goku question and the raging demon question right 😂😂
Love this stuff. Keep going jmcroft
i have never played a fighting game in my life besidesmortal combat 3. suck at playing them but love fighting game content. love jmcrofts, justin wong and max
The fact that he skipped the goku question lol
new respect for james chen lmao this dude REALLY knows his shit. listen to him spectate 3s or sf2
unrelated but that suit is looking soo good dude
what a god! I miss when James cries with Seth after Grand Finals
Time to get Ultra David on this man!
The game shows are my favorite FGC content. Keep em coming!
I was confused on that Goku question does he wanted the name "Goku" without rearranging the letters or names with the letters G O K U on them
James chen has amazing hair, wow.
Poison Ivy is in Injustice 2 I thought that was Swamp things super. Immediately got mixed
You must do a jmpardy with Justin, James and Max. Battle of the FGC OGs
Wait! When did James Chen get that luxurious mane?
This was great.
Im a diff kinda POT monster
I’m willing to pay for this.
I wish there was a way we could play too I love these game shows
I love these!
I got literally EVERYTHING. Damn I'm good 😏
I love this kind of content, keep it up!
I just wish that James would’ve busted a freestyle
Go figure, the most prolific commentator of the FGC for the last 20+ years destroys trivia on FGC…
That hair is what my hair wishes it could be
jm is moving on up.
Some gameshow music and sound effects would be cool.
I've always thought counting the first active frame as a startup frame is really dumb.
Startup frames = frames the move is starting up, but not yet active.
Active frames = frames the move is active, and can land a hit.
Recovery frames = frames that are no longer active, but you still don't have character control.
You dont have a playlist with your gameshow?
I do a lot better with the questions about the games than the ones about tournament rankings or famous players. These game shows are great though. :)
What a monster!
I like this show a lot.
Other than the spoilery title, great video!
Nice questions here.
My man making content Wich makes the community live
I as well am a pot monster Mr Crofts 😂🥴 but prolly wouldnt win tho lmao i only know like 2 of the questions each round 😂 anyways another great video 💪🏾
My boy James repping that Asian hairstyle. Loving it
SICK love me some Game Shows
Tbf, there are actually 7 Gokus. Bardock may not be named "Goku", but he got the Goku hair and Goku ignorance 🤣
Shun Goku satsu is a form of Goku
Commentus Maximus
the announcers i got the vs wrong lmao
i am south asian and james chen looks like my auntie who cooks fried rice for me 😋😋
Mfslayer_ would be comedy on here
thats not even all of the gokus. there’s goku’s dad, goku’s oldest son (in adult form), goku’s oldest son (in teen ssj2 form), goku’s youngest son fused with vegeta’s son, goku possessed by zamas fused with another zamas, goku potara fused with vegeta, monke goku fused with monke vegeta, and goku fusion dance with vegeta with blue hair. and ginyu can body change with goku mid-match. and super baby 2 can steal your goku’s assists mid-match.
