Nice to see Scott having a pleasant conversation with his Father
people often neglect to capitalize when referring to Him, good on you
I've seen this joke before lol it's really funny
Pffff I wasn’t even drinking anything but I sure spit it out lmao
He's a good son.
especially considering James is his actual Father. Nobody has ever believed Steve Wozniak's bs claims of being his official father.
Scott talking for two minutes at the start without cutting to James or hearing him react in any way made me think the whole video was just going to be Scott talking to himself pretending to talk to James lol
Only listen with the right ear bud to get that experince
Yeah, it might have been nice to have a setting shot
I am glad Im not the only one who thought that was kinda odd. LMAO I dont want to give scott too much shit, but you could tell he was sorta fanboying as he talked like 5 times more than james.
i was thinking the same thing😭
lol thought that too, but this interview is actually from November 2022
it would have been so funny if scott just kept talking and it never cut to james for the entire video.
At 43 minutes and 30 seconds he asks a question and it only cuts to James for half a second before the video ends
To me Scott is the only one who managed to capture the magic AVGN had, for a new generation. These two are fucking LEGENDS.
realist shit ive ever heard
real
I never got into avgn, ironically I got into his other series more, especially board james. But scott will always be a legend. Some of the stuff he puts up on this channel I actually like more than his regular channel. The vibes on Scott's stash are phenomenal 💯
But Scott actually talks about the games instead of just spouting curses constantly and calling every game shit?
@@Cr3zant Tbf he rarely covered games that weren't shit
The Nerd who hates Simon’s Quest meets the guy who owns Sonic Jam. Truly a match made in Madden 08 Heaven.
Best comment ever.
@@jumentoqueanimathe comment was Madden heaven
Took me a moment to realize how necessary my left earbud was for this video. When Scott asked James a question and then there was just silence, I realized something was up.
This is how I learned my left speaker is broken
Oh that sucks. I have hearing loss on my left, I was wondering what happened lmao
@@wdgaminganddisneyhistory6024 For a quick fix if you're on windows 10 you can search "Mono Audio" from your start menu and there's an option to turn it on. (It combines the left and right audio channels into one)
@@wdgaminganddisneyhistory6024 if you’re on IOS, there’s an option to make audio play from both sides equally
Bit weird they didn't fix this in editing, would've been easy to mirror left channel to both in post.
i only had my left earphone in when i watched this and thought this was a prank
The same thing happened to me!!!🙉
James' voice comes from the left channel, you must have had your right earphone on the left ear
Ew, breadtuber
@@AlfredFJones1776ok boomer
My left ear absolutely loved the legendary voice of James Rolfe
Thanks, this comment alerted me that my headphones were on back to front.
@@alyx4436 never go back to front
A father and son talk, if you will.
@TigranK115You know what they say, all fathers are sons, but not all sons are fathers.

100%..
@@EditUnivers75 This is a completely factual statement
Good to see father and son together.
Shut up
Yesir.
You never truly realise how much AVGN’s impacted Gaming reviews and Scott’s own show. Having a story arch that coexists with the review is how in like Chibi-Robo or the Christmas specials are some of Scott’s best
AVGN’s Jekyll & Hyde is Scott’s Chibi-Rob Ziplash
i honestly forgot scott's show is a game review show, feels like the games are just a side component.
@@poolpisser9000I gotta hard-disagree with that one-one of the reasons I love Scott is his ability to make genuinely informative content, if it isn’t a holiday special or purely-dedicated skit.
I think anyone who grew up with AVGN can clearly see how much influence he has had on Scott's content
It kind of surprises me that some people wouldn't notice Avgn impacted online game reviews a lot, but then it probably shouldn't since there are so many people online who were basically born yesterday.
Always great to see James Rolfe collab with other content creators, dude definitely is pretty pleasant to be around.
mmhm yup
Yes, certainly
Nothing but good memories
James is really in his wheelhouse when someone is praising him and telling him how great he is
Somehing feels off in this section
Two of the greatest gaming TH-camrs of all time coming together? It’s a post Christmas miracle!
You should see the intro to "Borderline Forever"
no
@@LaughNStalkAnd It’s a Bargain Bin Christmas
@@TheBcoolGuy fym "no"
True.
The Angry Video Game Nerd vs The Mildly Perturbed Video Game Nerd
Lmao 🤣
Screen Wave might’ve kinda ruined the brand, but James still seems like such a great dude. Whenever i see him actually saying his own thoughts he’s cool
Shame he has gotten lazy on his channel. Doesn't even write his own script anymore.
He's building back now that they're mostly behind the scenes. I still think he needs to build another Nerd room that doesn't feel so claustrophobic, but I legitimately think once the plagiarism thing happened, he realized he couldn't let these guys have so much power. He genuinely seems to have taken a lot of critique to heart. I know there was that video of him getting defensive, but it seems the tides have turned a bit.
Bro justy stfu with the tired repeat of same old bullshit. You dont even knows who writes what and are talking out of your ass based on reddit hateboner groups.@@supersanic1254
He’s a plagiarist, oh how the mighty have fallen
@@funky35791 He didn't plagiarize, the guy hired to write the piece did. He trusted ScreenWave to do their job they failed.
James was one of the first internet content pioneers imo. He was one of the first people (circa 2004) that showed you could make content, specifically FOR the internet, and it COULD be funny, and work out.
my brain cant decide if the audio is desynced of if he lost the footage and tried to ad-lib it to match lmao
Why is Scott a ghost
Gregorian
Always has been.🔫
These things happen
No hes the angel
I'm glad Scott gets to have the talk with his dad
You're the first person to come up with this joke. Congratulations you little comedian
if i see another scott and his dad joke imma kms
@@blackjesus6953do it
Crazy to see them in the same room after that insane rap battle
They are talking via video link tho bro.
@@OptimusSatanasis a joke
fr, but I guess real recognizes real at the end of the day.
rip jontron btw.
@@OptimusSatanasTf is a video link?
Scott talking with the progenitor of online video game content creation, this is incredible and some would say historic. Even after seeing Scotts specials with all the cameos of gaming TH-camrs both young and old as well as big and small, it still astonishes me just how much clout he has gained over the years. Happy New Year Scott my dude.
Scott and AVGN have collabed before.
Not to mention one of the largest creators to commit acts of plagiarism.
@@Ozzymandius1who, James rolfe or screenwave?
@@homelessend8557 James is the responsible one at the end of the day... stop treating the guy like a toddIer.
@redacted2275 um what?
1. not sure how asking a question means I treat him like a toddler, so maybe that's just a problem you have
2. Again, how is he the one responsible for plaigiarism?
James is an absolute legend of TH-cam/internet culture. 2024 will mark the 20th anniversary of his original Bad NES Games video, and that's just insane.
I feel like my childhood is talking to my adulthood
nothing but good memories
Cinemassacre was my first ever TH-cam channel I subscribed to. Still love the content. Thanks for this Scott and James.
Take a shot every time Scott says “like”.
Crazy that Scott went on the Cinemassacre podcast but didn’t get to do it with James and now we finally get to have a one on one between em
First time listening to a conversation, I can see why it's popular.
Underrated comment
The angriest gamer meets James Rolfe
That ending conversation when James talked about his book and Scott went right back to his original question was funny. He wasn't interested in helping him promote his book.
Take a drink every time Scott says like.
Inarticulate
This video saved my life
Uh-huh, oh cool thanks.
It has saved 540 lives. 540 of um!
im glad he got this interview done before 5:40
Oh! It's 5:40 gotta put the kids to sleep, good night folks!
This is the craziest collab I've seen so far on Scott's channel 😭
Scott also appeared on his father's channel one time to discuss... I think Nintendo Famicom Disk System games which were used on competitions
Your pfp...
@@Curlyheart :3
@@JackieBucks Twilight boutta end it all
Not long into the video yet but the questions are really interesting and the video is enjoyable to watch so far, hope to see more videos with James you can really see you admire him
So cool to see James as himself (I mean, not in character) happy to see he is alright! Happy holidays!
No time for James' audio to be fixed, mhm yep
Must have been 5:40 when they posted it
Is this comment meant to sound douchey or is that just me
@@SudsyDiamond Take a wild guess
@@redroninx289 i didn’t want to misinterpret but thank you for the subtle answer👍👍spread love instead
@@redroninx289 i didn’t want to misinterpret but thank you for the subtle answer👍👍spread love instead
Had my left headphone off and for a solid 3 minutes I thought Scott had just finally lost his mind
You can fix the audio in this video by setting your audio to mono. That fixed the issue for me.
James just REFUSES to speak into my right ear
I got into content creation a couple of years ago and I liked this video a lot, especially the behind-the-scenes thing of content creation. It gave me great insights into this. Thanks for making this video, Scott and James.
James and Ashen are really the fathers of all of this so it’s so cool to see you talking to him.
You could tell this was filmed a while ago when he still mentions Kieran was helping. Before he went on a garbage stabbing rampage and spilt all the dirt on ol Bim
Like Father, like Son 😍
Danksy is aware 🤘
Yoooooo, it's Danksy 🔥🔥🔥
stay dank 🔥
@@MINE_OK 😍
Someone needs to go through this whole video and count how many times the word "like" was used.
504
Amazing to see these two legends side by side! You guys are like father and son.
But, uh, why does James' audio only come from the left side?
Look at how scott's wearing his headphones
Because you need new headphones bro
@@misterranksz3950 No, you can easily tell because the music and Scott's audio come from both sides, but James' audio only does so from the left side.
But, if you are using a device that has only one speaker, or you have your audio configuration set as mono, is normal that you didn't realize.
Hope that he makes a conversation with Doug Walker AKA the Nostalgia Critic at some point.
easy to fix in post too
13:45 “Yeaahhhh”
Big Frankie fan btw
I love how chill these two guys are in real life.
James might be one of the nicest and most thoughtful creators on this platform. He’s always extremely respectful and appreciative of the community and culture he helped pioneer. I’m so thankful AVGN and Cinemassacre has been around as long as it has!
Seeing this reminds me of the time Scott was on the Cinemassacre podcast and James wasn't even there and he was stuck talking to 2 slobs.
No time to edit audio and sync it
yeah wtf, i thought i was hallucinating seeing his mouth go out of sync with audio
Big left earbud fan btw
It's more like "A Conversation with Myself and James Rolfe Chiming in Every Once in a While."
The comment about not liking audio editing when James' audio is only in my left ear is perfect.
With James not saying a word until about 3 minutes in, I thought this was some joke interview where there's actually no guest at all.
The real genius 900 i.q. move would have been each chanel uploading a version that is just the audio and video of each and making us do the work to get it together lol
NOW WE'RE FUCKIN TALKIN
Top tier comment 😂
95% scott, 1% BJames
It's nice watching the Rolfes together.
so good for you to interview to your dad Scott 😊😂
This video is 40 mins of Scott talking and 3 minutes of James agreeing to Scott’s leading statements. WE WANNA HEAR JAMES!
Woah this is just like the rap battle
such a nice video of scott talking to James Rolf's left speaker for 40 minutes
It's funny how after 2 minutes into the video, James finally says something lol
Mhm yeeeaaah
James creative process and all his behind the scenes stuff I think is just as entertaining as the episodes themselves
what a heartfelt moment between Dad and Son
James is such a legend one of my favorite internet personalities ever. Scott lives up to that legacy well.
i agree james is just the best.
@haveanotherpinacolada Sounds like you haven't watched any of his videos in the last 5 years
@haveanotherpinacolada His latest 2 AVGN videos (Jekyll and Hyde & Final Fantasy 6) are pretty good, I think some of the best stuff he's done.
@@jimmythegamer2231No, the comment could've watched the last five years and still concluded that they're bad. Use your brain.
@@jimmythegamer2231 clearly you havent. His channel has been shit for the past 5 years. Its embarrassingly bad, so bad I unsubscribed and cant even watch a full episode. You are in denial.
Uh, um, uh, um, uh, I like you James Rolfe. The end.
A blast from the past and modern day together. Didn’t expect this one
Why is James only in the left Audio channel???
Amazing interview with a hero of mine. Thanks Scott! FYI I heard James only in my left ear throughout, maybe it's just me but some centre would be ace
God Scott likes the sound of his own voice. Asks a question and then gives like five answers himself.
Speaking of post production, Scott didn't ballance James his microphone stereo level. RIP headphone users.
I see a bridge connecting two eras of gaming related videos. Such a sureal feeling to see this after following these two for so long.
Absolutely no plagiarism took place in the making of this video
You can tell it was all James when no plagiarism is present 😂
Those 43 minutes went by so fast
Being the same age as Scott and also being online for so long, I can't imagine what it's like having a conversation with James Rolfe. It seems like an opportunity you'd think you'd never get
Being the same age as James it's hard to imagine having a conversation with Scott. It must be so amazing.
@@PelinalWhitestrake_ lol nice 😆
For all the shit that people talk about James, and they do, you can't deny that he was one of the OGs of video content creation. I don't watch much of his stuff anymore, but, I watched ALL of his early AVGN stuff back in the day.
Could someone explain why there’s been backlash against James lately? I’ve been pretty “tuned-out” of internet drama for a while
@@gothicchad6293 aint no way AVGN movie ass??? I mean the new characters don't really fit in but I don't really remember it being that bad
Part of it was because...he wouldn't actually review ghostbusters? I have no idea either, to be frank. I've heard his friend Mike has been kinda hard to handle sometimes, but, meh. It's definitely blown well out of proportion in my view unless someone else can explain it better. @@5persondude
Yea, I don't know what the current situation is. I just heard about that and I know it got a lot of media attention. James made his name as a video content creator before anyone else, so, I respect him for that. I don't know what happened recently. @@gothicchad6293
My left ear thanks you, Bames (the guy who duck tapes tripods to the ceiling and can't plug mics in correctly)
Why are you even watching if you clearly belong to the truth circlejerk
little bro was yapping for over 4 minutes let the man speak 💀
You cant mix sound to come out of both left and right headphone? How long have you been making videos?
No way James lasted past 5:40
Scott and The Nerd, two channels I always end up falling asleep too from binging their videos lol
okay now if scott interviews jontron ima scream
Please reupload this with balanced audio
When the nerd started talking it made me jump with the difference in audio 😂
oh man i really wish scott balanced the audio between him and james for this video.
No time
@@redroninx289🤣
Interesting, I thought James would not have any time
ļé ľõĺ
Ah, it's the Windrammer himself!
I love Scott for his own unique content, and i have nothing but love and respect when i see him as the new generation and successor to AVGN
I'm both happy and proud, having experienced both of their journey and content.
The aftermath of the rap battle: they made up at the end and now have a calm and peaceful talk :3
Kinda surprising the Justin Silverman allowed James to talk on his own for more than 12 seconds without holding him at gunpoint or something
I wonder if those safety videos, James worked on can be viewed anywhere.
Its so weird to see scott not in a blue room with a desk or just his hands over a piece of carpet
my left ear is really enjoying this
Video of Scott talking with the occasional James comment lol
He's the angriest gamer your left ear's ever heard~
5:40 Nothing but good memories.
12:06 "Sometimes I just don't even do it" When talking about editing audio.
Yeah, man, we know. My left ear really enjoyed James.
Might want to re-upload with the audio in mono
Right audio track went out with muh kids
