No, The PlayStation 5 Won’t Play Every PlayStation Game Ever.

This rumor has been circulation for quite a few months now, but it really got into gear this past weekend when an article was published on comicbook.com (yes, a comic book website… what they are doing covering games is beyond me) saying that, based on speculation from some guy called “HipHopGamer” (someone I’ve never heard […]

How “The Wizard” Became One Of My Favorite Films Ever

Today, December 15th, 2019, marks 30 years since the film “The Wizard” premiered in theaters.

For those of us in the late 80’s and […]

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 87: Ninja Gaiden – Episode Review

This time we have another big production from the Nerd, this time on a very well known game that happens to be one I personally had as a kid (I actually still have my original copy) and have strong memories with — Ninja Gaiden for the Nintendo Entertainment System.

The Key Problem With Cloud Gaming

Another Garbage Game List: Polygon’s “100 Best Games Of The Decade”

Coming hot off the heels of IGN’s terrible “Top 100 Games of All Time” list Polygon, another top notch dumpster fire gaming “journalism” site decided to publish their own top 100 list, this time on the “Best games of the Decade” spanning 2010 to 2019.

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 78: Wayne’s World – Episode Review

Wayne’s World is an absolutely classic early 90’s film. While one of many films based on Saturday Night Live skits, it maintains a cult following to this day.

Wow, Microsoft actually got this one out somewhat early this month! Impressive. What may or may not be impressive, however, is the selection of games given to us Xbox Live Gold members this October.
