I feel the "angry reviewer" schtick only works when the game/movie is treated as part of a comedy act rather than joke fodder, bouncing off of its absurdity and letting it get the best of the character instead of just the character pointing and laughing at its flaws. The early Nostalgia Critic and JonTron videos did this well, and I feel the AVGN has kept relatively good thanks to it being essential for the titular anger and therefore unsubtractable.
