The 1980’s was an amazing time for computer technology – this was the time frame the concept of the microcomputer came into its own, bringing the ability to own a fully functional computer system into the average home. Computers however are strange machines, compared to what we normally have around our houses. Everything else we […]
Dragons Lair was an amazing game for its day. At least, an impressive one, anyway, for appearances, if not for gameplay. It used a LaserDisc system to play video clips that the player would react to, making decisions to progress in the game. Think “Quick Time Events” in games like God of War, Shenmue, and […]
That’s right, we’re doing back to back Nerd episode reviews. In this case, we hit the second half of the Halloween 2007 videos, the other Atari 2600 game James bought in the last episode… Halloween. This game is, debatably, a little better. It’s got it’s own gory elements, much like Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but at […]
Here we have the first of the Halloween 2007 Angry Video Game Nerd videos. This one focuses on the rather rare Atari 2600 game “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre” which is based on the movie of the same name. At least, it’s supposed to be, but given this is Atari, things are, well, up for […]
As promised in the Nintendo Power episode, the next video James did for the Angry Video Game Nerd covered the NES game Fester’s Quest, a rather unique video game adaptation of the classic Addams Family franchise. The entire episode is really a tribute to the Addams Family, with James playing all the members of the […]
Here we go, time to cover one of the more popular episodes of The Angry Video Game Nerd! This time around, the Nerd doesn’t take a look at a game – oh no, he takes a look at the one thing that every kid who grew up playing Nintendo wanted other than the next new […]
Well, I knew this one was coming. A relatively infamous episode of The Angry Video Game Nerd, this video focuses on several video games produced for the Atari 2600 that were of a less-than-proper nature, shall we say – the legendary “Atari Porn” games. Yes, seriously, video games for the Atari 2600 that were focused […]
Time for another episode in the same style as Spider-Man or the 2006 Halloween episodes – this one is another one split between gameplay footage and a review, and some live action storytelling with James and his friend Mike Matei. In this case, the game being covered is “Bugs Bunny’s Birthday Blowout,” a game released […]
There we quite a few games in the early 90’s based on the television show “The Simpsons” and in this video the Nerd takes a look at two of them for the NES.
For Independence day 2007, the Nerd reviews Independence Day for the Sony PlayStation!
Yippee ki-yay motherfucker! Another frustrating game based on an awesome film si what the Nerd is playing today — in this case Die Hard for the NES.
In another much-loved episode, the Nerd does battle with the nightmare that is Silver Surfer on NES.
The Nerd takes a look at another Sega Genesis add-on, the 32X.
In this Angry Video Game Nerd video, the Nerd takes a look at the Sega-CD console, an add-on for the Sega Genesis which, as the name suggests, used Compact Disc media for game storage.
Spoiler — it isn’t very good.
Time to look at various Spider-Man games! This time the Nerd is joined by the man himself. That, sadly, doesn’t make the games any more enjoyable.
