No offence, Matt Chat, but video is not for you. There are many people on youtube who do much nicer videos. Some have trained for it some just more talented. That IS my two cents. I would like to see you do more articles (and books) instead of wasting time with youtube.

Hello, Mr. Laffer. I, for one, have found "Matt Chat" to be very entertaining and informative on an adult level. It may not be a "Hollywood" production, but it is devoid of the usual "this M....F...'ing game sux!" commentary with death-metal soundtrack type video's I have seen on Youtube. I guess I'm too old to get a kick out of that kind of stuff.

There are MUCH, MUCH less polished videos on Youtube, as anyone can see. I'm always open to find cool videogame reviews and commentaries, but I haven't found much else that I regularly like, so if you have any recommendations, I am open to viewing them!

"Matt Chat" is a mature, informative and increasingly slick video presentation that gets me pumped up with every episode, either in a nostalgic sense or in an "I need to play that game (again!)" sense. And Matt is one of the cooler video hosts I've seen on videogame commentary. He has an easy personality, and his in-game commentary is intelligent and generously gives glory to the games in question. Other game commentary videos I've seen are often more about the "host" being outrageous and profane, attracting attention more to host than the games themselves.

I've seen some pretty cool videogame reviews on Youtube done by companies like IGN and such, but most of Youtube is "homebrew," which is what Matt Chat is. As such, I've become accustomed to overlooking technical deficiencies and homing in on the "meat" of the presentation. On the subject of classic videogame commentary, I haven't come across anything (yet) that matches Matt Chat.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. You've just read mine. And I don't know what Matt thinks, but I never listen to someone who tells me basically to "hang it up" if I am in pursuit of something and believe I can do it. The more you try, the better you become. And "Matt Chat" is only a few months old! Too young to kill it off when 'the human adventure is just beginning!'
