Angry Video Game Nerd

[DarhkFox]

new episode should be today. I'd also reccomend checking out some of his movie reviews etc. Enjoyed the Karate Kid one and the blood special effects one was quite funny.

[Down by Law]

Just been watching the last one, Ninja Gay-den. It's really funny, guy is great. I really like his 'continually confused about movie titles' video he did on youtube as well.

[Vimster]

That Neo-Geo song is epic .

[Chadruharazzeb]

He seems to be slowing down considerably with this. Be a pity if/ when he finally runs out of steam.

[Gambit]

Well he does an awful lot of other videos on Cinemassacre, not just AVGN.

I recently went and watched a load of his older ones. The funniest was by far a 3DO game called Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. Seriously, that's what the game was called.

[Chadruharazzeb]

That's one of my favourite Nerd vids. Awesome stuff.

[Lorfarius]

New vid due up in the next few hours

[roskelld]

Sweet, I've been checking the site over the past week or so hoping to see a new one.

[DarhkFox]

Yeah James only updates AVGN once a month now. He still does the little side projects but its kind of obvious he is more into the movie making than AVGN. At least he is sticking to his roots of what made him noticed anyway.

[Lorfarius]

He has always said since the beginning that he only started AVGN as a side project and now uses it soley to fund his movie side. Good on him if people are willing to fund his dreams so to speak.

Also if you've not seen the recent Game Glitches episode then you're in a for a treat.

The Rocky stuff at the end is proper lol, but genuinely quite freaky!

[Qazimod]

Thank Christ we can embed these. Gametrailers has been crippling my PC lately with all it's flash adverts and things.

[Gambit]

Great ending to the Zelda 2 one.

[Josh128]

Both were great, but the glitch one is one of the funniest I've seen so far. Good job Nerd!

[Qazimod]

I don't post about AVGN updates loads over here, but I thought rllmuk folk might be interested in a new one revisiting the Back to the Future games...

[roskelld]

That was incredible. James is a bloody great film maker, his editing really brings together a great sense of emotion. That ending was so good, I had to vocally let out a sound of joy when he booted Super Back to the Future II and the proper music kicked in.

[Qazimod]

Yeah, it's a shame that he's not focusing on AVGN stuff as much as he used to; his recent ones have been great, and he has an amazing enthusiasm whether he's talking about crap games or brilliant ones...

True, but i think whilst AVGN got him noticed, his real love is film itself. Hence why he only does a video a month of AVGN now and spends a lot of time doing film related stuff.

I would reccomend people check out all his other stuff, ddon't just stick to AVGN. He has a crapload of great stuff on the site.

[Josh128]

"Ahhh you fuckin processing, STOP BEING SO BLAST!!"

^^

Nerd when cursing the Genesis version of Back to the Future 3. I almost pissed myself when he said this. SF BTF 2 looks decent! I love this guy...

[Lorfarius]

He's planning on making his own AVGN movie:

awesome. this is one of those films i wouldnt mind donating to.

[patters2.0]

I find it truly amazing that he manages to put himself through the pain of playing some of those awful games. Imagine spending 2 hours trying in earnest to play that Back to the Future II & III on the NES! I remember having a demo of BTFIII on the Spectrum (the same horse riding level) from a Your Sinclair cover tape. It was total arse, and I think at that point I realised that movie tie-ins were generally worthless.

[roskelld]

Awesome

Probably his most epic battle scene.

Oh yeah, excellent! It made me LOL when he got Rob his gyro! This guy is a mad genius.

[Qazimod]

Mm, I saw that the other day. It gets a little silly towards the end, but the main coverage was fantastic.

[DarhkFox]

The Star Wars one is pretty funny (ep #99)

[Oh Danny Boy]

I love that one about the Genesis vs snes battle.

Seen it ages ago made me laugh loads

which one about the genesis v snes battle? i can't find it

[Qazimod]

It's been more than two months since a new episode, but the wait was worth it

[robotattack]

I didn't think too much of it. Being 5 years behind the rest of the world I only just recently discovered AVGN and have now seen all of them, and this one didn't hold up that well to me. Perhaps it was because Kyle was badly ad libbing lyrics through it, but it just didn't seem to flow that well or seem as funny. It was more like one of the Mike and James commentary videos. Maybe there wasn't enough swearing or poo references. I did laugh at the "where did the hair go" bits though.

Still, Ikari Warriors looks like a right bitch to complete. I had it on the Amstrad and never really got that far in it. I don't know how the layouts of the levels compare to the NES version but I'm glad I didn't persevere. Because you could get in tanks and have two players I always just thought of it as a posh version of Commando.
