    I remeber they had a kiosk at the local mall which was selling used games. It was about ten years ageo, and I got A LInk To The Past and Dracula’s Curse and it was awesome.

    That was pretty good but the more I watch Pat the more I get the feeling he doesn’t like us. (His fans and internet time wasters alike.)

      You’re right, I don’t like my fans. That’s why I spent dozens of hours putting this special together for the fans to enjoy on Christmas.

      • djb123

        lol. ok then. Just seems like sometimes you make fun of the type of person who watches or creates internet shows. Makes me (most likely erroneously) believe that you have some kind of passive aggressive dislike for the whole genre. I still like your videos though.

          Don’t mind this guy Pat. If they’re too sore to take a joke on Christmas season, nothing is going to make them happy :D

          • djb123

            I’m not sore. I’ve watched Pat’s videos and enjoyed them for a long time. I love his site too. RWTV, CoTGW, and his site are all great and I never said I was mad at him in any way.

          • Lol

            CotGW isn’t Pat’s site…. Nor is RWTV…

          • djb123

            No, but Pat and roo are on RWTV and Roo’s 16 bit gems get featured on the punk effect. I am saying that I enjoy the whole of this community of content producers.

    at first when you started with the whole parody of lets plays, i thought this was going to be utterly obnoxious like a lot of LPs are, but when i saw the whole “its a wonderful life” skit, it was really enjoyable great video pat :D

    no wi want to check out the game theory and the other videos on your site post haste!

  • Big T

    I truly liked the opening part. The cameos were fine too, nice adaptation of this old classic.
    Also Frank does a pretty funny part.

    Loved it.  So many of the performances were hilarious.  Frank’s always great, but perhaps the show-stealer for me was MatPat and his ideas for new videos.  I think he should use that new outro for all of his work.

    Certainly one of the best “It’s a Wonderful Life” spoofs I’ve seen, for sure.

      You’re the show stealer Roo! coitus with your mom :D

  • JohnD

    Loved this. Nice all star line up!!  Frank saying “coitus” made my holiday.

    Lol Roo’s intellectual shit talking had me rolling.Everyone did a great job with their cameos. Loved it. Nice job Pat.

    Happy Holidays guys! Great stuff :D

  • Andrew

    Holy Frank Balls!  That was amazing!  You had me extremely nervous at the start, because I had no idea what kind of ride you were taking us on.  Game Chasers as greedy resellers killed me.  I can tell you guys really don’t appreciate those types ;)

  • Joakim Kilman

    Looooooooove your Cabal poster. It. Is. Awe. Some. My. Man.

    Happy holidays!

    Great video! I don’t really know how Pat influenced these guys SO much, but whatever :D It was really entertaining to watch.

  • Bob22

    How does Frank still not have his own TV show? Seriously :P

    And Roo was just awesome in there >_<
    As was James imitating Pat.

  • Brent B

    Seeing Roo play the latest FPS games instead of 20 year old RPGs, which I am also a big fan of, was almost too much to bear. All the other cameos were great, too. Fred sure must be talented to snag a beer without even being in physical form. 

    Frank, yeah, he’s just awesome, and it was great to see him in a major role.

  • DeanWhipper

    Very enjoyable, thanks Pat

  • Dups1822

    best line of this special frank: whats an internet show? hahaha awesome!

  • locoma

    YESSSSSS finally FRANK is the star! (almost?). Man is he fun to watch.
    Thanks for this Punk! I gotta check out all those producers you included
    in this video now. I loved Frank’s whole part in this as well as the
    link to the past’s fake bashing, and it was really fun seeing the nerd
    playing a spoof of yourself. Lots of great jokes, fun cameos and ideas in this video
    (also, the video itself looks really nice and clean as well).Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your colleagues!

    Oh, Pat. You adorable little ragimuffin. Your videos always seem to brighten my day. ^_^ I hope you had a Merry Christmas.

    that shit sucked.

      I’d like to see you do better…or even get people to care for that matter

      • http://www.retrowaretv.com Kevin Willingham

        Yes, good decision

    • http://thepunkeffect.com Pat

      You know, you have a lot of good things to say here (especially your final point), and I will take it under consideration for future reviews.

  • Wad

     I’m glad you made this video. I’m tired of Zelda games getting a free pass. They all suck!

    • http://thepunkeffect.com Pat

      I think you may have missed the point.

  • MagnetoCock

    I love the subtle “Top 10″ jab at ScrewAttack by the “game theory” dude.

    I love that Alternate Reality Frank was wearing a 17th Street T-Shirt and Reality Frank was wearing a Southern Illinois University T-Shirt. 

    This is a great video Pat.  I laughed through the whole thing and the alternates of all the Characters were great!
