Guest Announcement: James Rolfe the AVGN

Mark P. Tjan — Wed, 16 May 2012 17:00:00 +0000

He’s gonna take you back to the past. To play the sh***y games that suck ass. And he’s gonna be at ConBravo!

Ladies and gentlemen, making his first Canadian appearance, we’re proud to announce the Angry Video Game Nerd – James Rolfe!

One of the pioneers of internet criticism, James has done everything from boardgames to crappy movies, including his sketches as the AVGN, his Board James reviews, and tearing into real life with You Know What’s Bullsh*t. A no-nonsense, take-no-prisoners critic, James helped shape what online webshows have become, and you’d better believe he’s bringing the rage. Come see his panels, his Q&A, and so much more as the AVGN hits Burlington.
