In 2007, Bores stumbled upon the YouTube craze of game
reviewers that reviewed old video games in an angry manner popularize by James
Rolfe. Finding the whole genre inspiring, Bores decided to add himself to
the mix of the 200 plus reviewers by satirizing other reviewers with
established fan-bases. (ie: AVGN, Armake21, PlayItBogart)
In April of 2007, Irate Gamer was born. Having a background in film, many
people quickly took notice and asked for more. After numerous requests,
Bores decided to do just that. After releasing a few more videos done in
his spare time, YouTube took notice and featured 2 episodes within a span
of a month on the front page of YouTube which popularized the show, and
Bores went on to partner with Google.
Critics of the early show labeled Bores a copy of other
reviewers, but overlooked his goal of paying homage to the guys that came
before him. Despite the critics feedback, the first season of the show
was done out of love for the Genre and the people who spawned it.

During the next season however, Chris now had a fan base of
12,000 demanding more episodes. The satirical nature was dropped and his
own voice began to shine through to evolve the Irate Gamer show into the
second most popular video game review show on YouTube, By adding in story
lines, special effects, a cast of reoccurring characters, cut scenes, and
video game world interactions, Chris quickly went on to hold the
prestigious award of the #55th most subscribed channel on YouTube, and
has since been featured in a variety of articles and publications
worldwide.

Chris went on to achieve many accolades. The Haunted
Investigators show become the most popular Ghost Hunting show on YouTube,
"History of Video Games" and "Irate the 80's" both
became critical success’s, and Bores has been praised for his extensive
coverage and interviewing skills at video game events.
Currently Chris is finishing up a huge story arc in the
Irate Gamer series, continuing the History of Video Games saga, and
working on a new ghost hunting documentary that will shake up the
paranormal community for years to come.
