Wow...

[Famidrive-16]

He's right, that demo is awful. Random ending, though.

[kainemaxwell]

Wow, crappy game. The lion was the funniest part of the review.

[Famidrive-16]

He just uploaded a short documentary called 'Cinemassacre 200', about his past of working on movies.

... and again. Great review, but what's with all the graphic scatological imagery?

[HYB]

The lion killed me.

, oh man ... he's really got it down to a science now.

It's a perfect balance of in-depth reviews of awful games AND funny costume/prop/FX gags that never seem to go on too long or get too self-indulgent.

And as far as the people questioning all the vulgarity and scatological humor ... have you NOT either followed AVGN's reviews since the beginning and/or watched them all from his archives?

It's not like he started out calm and sanitary and degenerated into this ... he's been using terms like "assload of fuck" since the beginning, and has been using FX "crap shots" for at least year now.

Oh man, that was great. Probably my favorite part was when the clock started "attacking" him. Oh, and great outtakes at the end too.

I'm not complaining about the curse words, that's fine. But it's him using graphic depictions of CRAPPING OVER THINGS AND PEOPLE that irks me.

I dunno. It just seems... too juvenile.

I get where you're coming from - it's definitely not for everybody.

But, again, if you're familiar with his catalog of work (especially the non-AVGN movies he's done) you'll know he's a big fan of old-school "splatter" effects shots ... obviously NOT limited to blood and guts.

Gosh, AVGN shit pickle tattoos are surely beyond the call of duty, no matter how much you like his videos! http://cinemassacre.com/AVGN/Nes_Nerd.html

Those tats are fucking awesome. Everyone needs to have joke tattoos so respect for the guy/guys who got them.Besides they're done well, I see a lot of bad VG/joke tattoos, so that's a plus.

Anyone like to donate for a shit pickle tattoo on me XD? Ah, I love bodmod.

To be honest I think the Angry Nintendo Nerd goes through phases. His earily video's were really funny, and didn't really need any extra goods to make them classics. His second phase seems to be using characters and special effects more. They were funny, but not like the originals. Lately, he seems to be going for more serious reviews, while still using the above tactics. Don't get me wrong I really enjoy his video's, yet wish he would return to his roots per say. I do look forward to new video's on a semiweekly basis. O_o

The angry Video game nerds next video is up. It is called Double Vision Pt. 1. Here is the Link: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/32245.html

This Part is mostly about the Intellivision.

[Coldguy]

Wow...a ton of DP love in the episode. Logos, pictures, and NAVA findings...oh my!

[ryborg]

Damn straight SNAFU is a good game. Great review overall. I actually wish it were longer because as much as I like the Intellivision, there's a lot of crappy games to laugh at.

I noticed he was reading the How to Win at Nintendo games books by Jeff Rovin in the intro. I wonder if he'll ever rip those.
