James and Mike Mondays started out as a show that was kind of just there to pick up the slack of the fantastic Cinemassacre YouTube channel between the episodes of Angry Video Game Nerd, it now it's turned into a pretty solid little show in its own right, although it certainly has nothing on the Angry Nerd. It's really a very different kind of show, it's very plain, there's just James Rolfe and Mike Matei sitting there and talking as they play all kinds of games both old and new, but I find them fun enough to listen to, James seems like a very chilled out kind of dude when he's not in full Nerd mode, and the always lively and kinda scary Matei is hilarious when he gets all worked up and frustrated at a particularly tricky part of a game, but overall you can just really tell that these guys love this kind of stuff and I think that's what I personally like about it, I just like to watch this show and relax. Some of the best episodes are the multi-Part ones, such as the Batman one for the NES, a full playthrough where you certainly felt their pain! Not the very greatest that the awesome world of Cinemassacre has to offer but still a lot of fun, and regardless, for both retro movie and videogame buffs James Rolfe is still one of the best the internet has to offer, keep up the good work dudes!
