* CreatorBacklash:
** He has admitted that his 2011 review of ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsArena'' has "aged...''quite'' poorly", and might consider revisiting it in the future to "give it some fresh coverage more fitting to [his] current standards." He even went so far as to downvote the video in his ''Skyrim'' review, uploaded exactly ten years later.
** In general he has expressed distaste for a lot of his old videos, mainly for the sluggish narration and being much too harsh (or occasionally too forgiving) on some games.

* TechnologyMarchesOn: Occasionally, if Clint slips up on explaining something about what he reviews, the viewers will ask how something even works. For example, he reviewed the [=IBM PC110=] palmtop PC, which could double as a phone. He forgot to explain how the phone actually works (it's a landline phone) and people thought it was a cellphone, asking where the SIM card goes (of note, SIM cards until 1996 were credit card sized, not like the smaller ones we're probably used to seeing today).
