One of the best Irate Gamer parodies.

I've seen quite a few Irate Gamer parodies from recent times. While some of them leave more impact than others, Third Rate Gamer was the first one I saw, and one of the best. (Funny enough, I found Third Rate Gamer before I even saw the real thing) Every episode starts with a Stylistic Suck Episode Title Card done in Microsoft Paint with his head photoshopped in, and misspelled writing. I also like the theme song that plays before it. The actual episodes are blatant Take Thats against Irate Gamer, with So Unfunny It's Funny humour to match. I like how in his review of Super Mario Bros 1 and 2, he has a bomb lying around his house for no good reason. There's also the end of his Home Improvement review, where a dinosaur sprite from the game comes to burn his TV, then it cuts to a black screen with TRG getting his viewers to give him money for a new TV, and then says they can continue to pay him even after he has gotten a new one. Plus the scene in his Little Nemo review where he escapes from the police, they show a background of a house and a picture of somebody riding a bike with his head photoshopped over it, with the white background still intact! Third Rate Gamer is a parody of So Bad, It's Good, and it works. I could name a few other Irate Gamer parodies I find good, but this is my favourite, and one of the few high-quality ones for that matter.
