The Official Angry Video Game Nerd Discussion Thread

[kupomogli]

I'm at work so unable to watch the video, will give my opinion later.

I've always liked Street Fighter 2010. Have never thought of it as a bad game. Only thing about the game is it's somewhat difficult.

...but I was kind of disappointed when I saw that he was reviewing this game...

This is, bar none, the funniest AVGN complaint I have *ever* read.

Sorry Kupomogli, you've been usurped.

[Gentlegamer]

I rented this game many years ago. I remember three things:
1. Good graphics
2. Hard as hell
3. Had nothing to do with Street Fighter

Seems like the Nerd hit those major points.

[chrisbid]

im glad he managed to work in a crack about the voice work in street fighter i

seriously, the intellivision and odyssey2 did a better job than a late 80's arcade game

[Snapple]

He was all over the place in this video, but it worked out pretty well. He got an excuse to crack jabs at Street Fighter I and Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game. And he seemed to give SF2010 its props for the things it did well.

[Zap!]

My only gripe was he said something like "Why no Guile, Chun Li (or some other SFII character)?" Kinda hard to put in SFII characters when they haven't been invented yet lol. But great video, I enjoyed it and it was nice and long.

Off topic but why was the Turbo Grafx CD-ROM game called Fighting Street? The Nerd seems to blame them for getting the name backwards, but I think it goes deeper than that. Licensing issues?

Actually the AVGN doesn't find the game bad either.
Nice vid.

I was about to reply about that complaint, but then saw you replied first and realized, "Well. We can't have more than one person replying to that complaint. Someone might complain that Nature Boy replied first."

Now I am the original replier to Nature Boy's reply. Don't reply to it or you risk someone complaining.

I'm just glad that the Nerd finally did something with the Turbo Grafx and the Saturn. The side reviews of Fighting Street and Street Fighter: The Movie are what made this video for me.

[Jorpho]

I also quite liked it. (The opening montage was rather nifty too.)

Also, buttf*cked up the dick? That's a new one.

[Pezcore343]

Sweeeeeet

Yea seeing him do those makes me want to see more reviews of games on those systems.

[emceelokey]

Oddly enough, I was thinking of this game when I was coming home form work today. I was just thinking that the year has finally come and it totally was off the mark for what the then future would look like.

[Raedon]

About time he threw the TG16 and Saturn in the mix.

And now I'm the original replier to your reply, bringing it full circle.

And what's so funny about me expressing my initial disappointment about the Nerd reviewing a game that Spoony One has already reviewed? I felt that Spoony had already done this game justice in his review, so the Nerd's time would be better spent reviewing a different game, that's all; in the end I liked the Nerd's review, as always. I just plain don't get why my "complaint" is funny.

Grate video

I just plain don't get why my "complaint" is funny.

To be honest it had a lot to do with how I read your comment. I can't explain it in words I don't think - suffice it to say you're probably not alone amongst those who don't get the humour.

What are we supposed to do with the grated video?

Fun fact: Spoony reposted his review yesterday. And this was at the botttom:

"PS: Suck it, Nerd! I was here first!" *laughs*

[kupomogli]

Even though James was pretty much expressing his dislike towards the game, it seemed that he started to move over to the fact that he enjoyed the game later on in the review.

One thing that is very true that James stated in his review though. "You get frusturated to where the skill you've got starts to weaken." The more you die, you get pissed off, you don't play as well because you're not thinking clear, etc.

Anyways. Thought the review was really good and actually liked the Street Fighter and Final Fight references thrown in. Basically a full review then a bit of bonus.
