Gregory DG Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Man, I'm bummed. I really like Mark and his reviews. Not over the top crazy, but just goofy. Wonder if he's moving out of his building and packing up completely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Wow, I didn't think this would happen, not yet at least. I just met Mark for the first time over summer, at the ReplayFX show in Pittsburgh. He gave a funny seminar about the future of gaming (it was the Vectrex); then we were both in the audience during Eugene Jarvis' seminar. I bought a CGR mug among other things. I will need to drink out of it tonight in honor of Classic Game Room HD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Sucks but I think the "market" is saturated. And the internet is different today than it was years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Just bought some stuff from the CGR store. Won't be around much longer. Although, I feel like if I (and dozens of us) had bought this stuff earlier, he might not be closing shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutsy Doodleheimer Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 CGR is a great video game review channel on the net. I like Mark's sarcastic and dry sense of humor. He is what got me into wanting to add more to my video game collection. I need to get the beer mug before it is gone forever! I wish him the best on his future endeavors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyHW Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I'm bummed out about this news as well. Wonder what's going to happen to the arcade room he's got set up. Wonder what's going to happen to the guy from Undertow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nutsy Doodleheimer Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Here it is. My favorite CGR episode of all time. \m/TRUXTON \m/ from September 2008. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory DG Posted November 8, 2015 Author Share Posted November 8, 2015 I'm bummed out about this news as well. Wonder what's going to happen to the arcade room he's got set up. Wonder what's going to happen to the guy from Undertow. Wish we knew about the "Intergalactic Space Arcade" too. I'd imagine he's going to put it back into the storage unit, like how it used to be. I'm sure the rent for the offices and location cost and arm and a leg each month. Derek and the rest of the crew are laid-off. My guess is Mark can't afford to pay everyone as it is, so that's that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
