The Bandai RX-78 Gundam Personal Computer

Hello again! Glad to be back. I've been really wanting to do a video about this thing for a while. Especially since it seems like practically nobody else has. I guess the combination of it being (1) very rare (2) very expensive (3) pretty crap has something to do with that.

The shop (and alpaca farm) shown in the video is called Forgotten Worlds and is located in Stewarton, Scotland. I have no idea how so much Japanese gaming STUFF ended up in a field in Scotland, but hey! I also have t...

The Infinite Review / 36 / Christmas Special 2021

Hello everyone. It's that time once again. I won't go on and on this time, but I DO have to do some thank yous. The Christmas video was particularly challenging to get done in time this year, so I want to express my gratitude to everyone who supported me along the way. I don't think I would have gotten over those last few hurdles without you.

I also have to give a huge thank you to... all you. The patrons who kept The Infinite Review a thing throughout 2021. None of the...

Guess who's back? Back again? Fan favourites Gavin, Richie and Sean once again endure The Infinite Review Podcast to bring you a lifetime supply of: Wet Socks. Pepsi Max. Robot Stepdad. And more!

This podcast also features MORE THAN ONE game. Will Richie's Game be one of them? Maybe!

That's Bass.

The Infinite Review / 35 / Rave MacBeth

Hello again! My apologies, it's been a while. I won't bore you with the details, but a combination of both technical and life stuff kept me from putting out a new video. (I also played Disco Elysium.) Thank you all for baring with me! I actually have a bunch of video ideas piling up now which I can't wait to get started on. But first I guess I better make a Xmas Special for 2021. If you would like to contribute to this year's mailbag, please send anything you like to mechagamezilla@gm...

Matt Watson Drinks Sparkling Water

Joining me on the Infinite Review podcast is Rich YouTuber Matt Watson. No, really!

We chat about first time meetings, online sincerity, that NASCAR thing, Las Vegas and some upsetting Aladdin information. Matt also becomes my first guest to enter the Infinite Review Confessional Booth. But does he confess? I can't remember, so I need you to listen to this and let me know.

I must extend a huge thank you to Mat...

The Infinite Review / 34 / Building a PC

Well hello! While I was really happy with the positive response to the Evangelion video (only 40k views to go before you get that Rebuild review, folks!) I did want to go back to something dafter for the next one. And I really really did need a new PC. I have done for a while now, and it seems I finished this new one just in time. (My current PC suffered at least three catastrophic crashes during the making of this video, almost as if it knew it was being replaced.) I have to...

Schindler's Kill List

Joining me on the podcast this time is Hbomberguy from YouTube! In this meandering chat we discuss nickname origins, Jack the Ripper's contribution to British culture, the cowardice of Steven Spielberg, the rising bar of online embarrassment, a radiator and EVEN manage to sneak in some VERY up to date videogame discussion about Hades.

The Infinite Review / 33 / Neon Genesis Evangelion

Finally I'm giving the people what they want: an old man rambling about anime in a shed.

But before I get into that, I have to talk about the incredible response to my recent Thank You post. Yes, this is another thank you. Your kind messages absolutely crushed the nagging doubts I was having. I may have a modest audience and that may be unlikely to change, but I can't complain as long as the people ...

Thank You

I have wanted to write this post for a little while, but kept putting it off. I will try to keep it brief.

The viewing figures for The Infinite Review have been steadily declining for a while now. Maybe it's the algorithm, maybe it's the rise of tiktok or vtubers, maybe I am simply not as entertaining anymore. Whatever the reason, it is discouraging. I know it's unwise to judge the worth of ones work on Internet Numbers, but the rate of decline is stark enough to make me worry about rea...

The Infinite Review / 32 / E3 2021

This Is E3 is BACK for its second annual show! Despite the best efforts of Big Gaming to destroy us - here we are, bringing you all the latest news from about three weeks ago.

A huge thank you to all my patrons who make the Infinite Review possible, and another huge thank you to my lovely cohost Sean. Not just for agreeing to appear in this nonsense, but for allowing me to invade his home for the entirety of E3.

A bonus podcast will be made available shortly for $3 patrons, and it...

Joining me on the podcast this time is Lord Mandalore of MandaloreGaming. We recorded this back in January, so I'm glad to finally be putting it out there!

Somehow we end up discussing forests, cryptids, lucky charms, warhammer, mall planning and confirm the existence of alien life.

This podcast features a fanmade sting - a short song inspired by John's Tire Conspiracy. The sting is by Marc, which...

The Infinite Review / 31 / Fatal Deviation

While the reception of the last video was very positive I couldn't help notice a lot of people saying "this video made me want to die" and while I personally didn't think it was THAT depressing I did figure you all needed something lighter this time around. And it doesn't get much lighter than Fatal Deviation - the best martial arts film made in County Meath in 1998.

Am I trying to say that Jimmy Bennett is the William Wallace of Ireland with this video? I'm no...

Joining me on the podcast this time is old* favourite Richie Morgan. With some help from  Werner Herzog we tackle several subjects and furniture items. Be warned: this podcast features EXPLOSIVE celebrity exposes.

The Infinite Review / 30 / The Future

Hello! I hope you're all keeping well. Today I'm talking about the future, which used to be everyone's favourite. Now everyone hates it. The original plan for this video was to make it about all the things we should be looking forward to, but after doing some research it seems like even the positive outlooks are followed by a "but..."

So this video changed a lot while I was putting it together, but I'm happy with the end result. I hope you enjoy it too! And if you want to share...

Miracle Mile

Well now, this is an odd one. Joining me on the podcast this time is writer/director Steve De Jarnatt! Steve is best known for directing the 1988 cult classic Miracle Mile, which just so happens to be one of my favourite films. It's a film best seen knowing nothing, and this podcast will include spoilers, so I'd recommend watching it beforehand.

We discuss Miracle Mile, as well as several other ...

The Infinite Review / 29 / Super Mario 3D World

Gosh, all that World War II stuff was a little heavy, wasn't it? How about something lighter? The response to the Star Trek: Bridge Crew video so positive that we're now boldly going to the mushroom kingdom on a diplomatic mission to kill Bowser for good.

I must thank Richie, Gavin and Sean for going on this journey with me. They made it a lot of fun, and after the research-intensive last video this was a great way to wind down again. I was only thinking last night how happy I ...

An Enhancer of Reality

The trial never ends.

Victor returns to the podcast a year after his initial "Good Person" twitter trial to see how public opinion has shifted (or not) in the past 12 months.

A heads up for podcast listeners: Sometime between now and the release of the next podcast episode, you should try watch a film called Miracle Mile (which I believe is available on Netflix). If possible, do not watch any trailers or google it in advance. It is best seen with no knowledge of w...

The Infinite Review / 28 / The Nazi Films About Ireland

I'm back! Is it too late to say happy new year? Sorry to have been gone so long, but don't worry - I've been busy the whole time. I have a few things in the pipeline now that you should all be looking forward to. Another reason this video took a while to come out is it took a lot more research than usual. It's a very odd story that many people do not seem to be aware of. I hope you all find it as interesting as I did.

As always, a bonus accompanying podcast will be released to $3 patron...

The Infinite Review / 27 / Christmas Special 2020

Hello all! Normally the patreon post is the first thing to go live, but this year I thought I'd try do a youtube premiere watchalong. If you made it, thanks for tuning in! I was very nervous (for some reason) but was delighted with how well it went.

I must resist repeating what was said in the video, but I must extend a thank you to all patrons. I only say it each time because it's true: The Infinite Review would not exist without you. I am eternally grateful for your support.

Monkey Nuts

Joining me on this episode of the Infinite Review Podcast is PROPER youtuber Mr. Clemps! (See? Told you I'd get a new guest eventually.) Perhaps inevitably, we discuss Final Fantasy - but also Halloween, my horror film pitch, and entirely justified stage fright.

There's also an invaluable as always update from Dr. Victor. Enjoy!

The Infinite Review / 25 / The Constellations

Good news! It's not about videogames this time. Three videogame-related videos in a row? I know, I'm sorry, and it won't happen again.

This video fell foul of a problem I raised in the last podcast. I definitely over-researched. I read three books for this one, and how much info actually went into the video? I'd rather not think about it. Nevertheless I am very happy with how it turned out. I am so thankful for everyone who supports the Infinite Review and makes it possible for me to do...

Well, it was bound to happen. Everyone has gone away. But I can't let that get in the way of your bonus podcast, can I?

It was a little nerve wracking sitting in front of a microphone and talking to myself for this long, so I want to thank everyone who sent questions, even if they didn't make it in. I got a lot of good ones, and if this podcast is even slightly entertaining it's thanks to them. I do hope you enjoy this one, because if you do I can do this again sometime - and if not, I ...

MORE videogame content? Lucky you! This video pretty much had to happen, after the high drama brought on by THE INCIDENT. I have to thank everyone again for the help they provided during my massive all day stream for keeping my spirits up, and making this video possible. I would also like to thank Sean for providing some excellent art.

As much as you're all loving the videogame content, I will say that there's a 9...

As you probably guessed, my guest on the podcast this month is... the only other person I've seen in weeks! Yes, Sean joins me to discuss all manner of things. Spice bags, Casper, UNO, (This is a very UNO heavy episode, get excited!) the elements, BTS, and an explosion.

We also hear from Dr. Victor who has, as usual, a bewildering update for us.

Please enjoy! And remember: be careful what you wish for
