Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

It got stale, but it's not Jon's fault. It's hard to pump a lot of creation into something like that.

He's a talented guy, he'll make another Machinima, and if it's any good like Hard Justice, it should be great.

I've stopped watching it, but I know it had some great moments. One of the reasons why I can't bear to watch it is how he portrays Halo 3 as being something its not.

about 4 years slow if you ask me. He hasn't produced anything good in years, and the best stuff he released was only "meh".

It's been more about the story now, but it's still fairly amusing.

Machinima is just cancer now.
Just absolute cancer.


Remember the last time it uploaded an actual machinima? Like back in 2009.

OT: Maybe this wouldn't be happening if he milked the series, even going as far as cancelling other shows which were also good but reviving arby n the chief too many times.

Seriously, why the hell would you cancel Deus Ex machina 1 episode before the finale but continue arby n the chief after ending the series several times?
Dues ex machina, he ran out of material for and didn't really care for it after a while. I liked the show, but you can see him getting fed up with his own writing as the story went on.

Arby 'n the Chief isn't very funny anymore.

There might be a nice gem every episode or so, but now it's just "supr seris hackor on haloz" with people making conversations in a game as if it were RL.

ITT: People who clearly know good machinima

I don't know why it's popular to hate on Arby N The Chief, I've been a fan since "Master Chief Sucks at Halo 3" and Jon has come a LOOOONG way since then.

I think that the shows prime was season 4 and 5, but that doesn't mean Seasons 6 and 7 were terrible. I believe that the overall mood of the later seasons is what gives it that essence that the characters go through.

Season 7 may "suck" because it's so depressing, so you can understand what the gang is going through. I know it's the final season, and I gotta say I applaud Jon for doing everything he can under the circumstances he's been in lately.

Also, Greg ftw.

IMO, the sad thing about this story is that hard workers are laid off every day, but when a guy that gets paid to make youtube videos is worried about losing his job he blogs about it and it gets spread over the internet.

Yeah but these hard workers don't make products, with their names on it, to potentially millions of people. Meaning they aren't as well known.

Also, never visit any tabloid press sites.

Straight Edge.

Respect to Jon CJG and I have a certain amount of nostalgia for his videos but everything comes to an end and to be honest the series has been on its last legs for awhile. He doesnt produce nearly the amount of content that he did and is occupied with school aswell.

He helped launch the channel sure, but it didn't help when he went through his pretentious phase in 2008 and alienated his fans. RIP DigitalPh33r 2006-2012

I'm not saying that this guys not a hard worker. I'm just saying that plenty of people go through stuff like this. People who work their whole lives to get a job and need it to support a family get laid off, and this guy is making a blog based off unconfirmed, conflicting information from several people. If he really didn't want to cause his fans any worry than he wouldnt be posting based off what he admits are possibly untrue rumors.

I guess Jon likes to keep us updated even if it's bad news. I mean, I'd rather hear this now than hear that he was cut later on.

before I stopped watching Arby n the chief, it felt like the show was becoming more and more limited due to the fact that the microsoft voices only add so much expression and you could predict 98% of chiefs lines with 1 of 7 words. I think Jon is a good director but its time for him to branch into something new.

Meh, the show has really gone downhill, same as RvB. Trying to add too much drama to a show that was originally about getting some laughs out.

Also, Jon CJG is an egotistical ass.

What did he do/say? I haven't seen the show in years, but I remember it being entertaining.

This so much.

I was thinking that for Season 7 he should get some voice actors from RT to be like extras, like maybe Michael or Burnie.

I still watch it, but Jon has forgotten what made Arby n the Chief famous, the laughs. Those laughs are rare in the new episodes.

Funniest Byte so far

Literally had me in tears the first time I watched from laughing so hard at so many things at once
