My Gaming Collection (Now at Google Drive!)
I've become a fan of the AVGN as of late. Although I will admit that his very first choice for a review of Castlevania 2 got on my bad side, he has steadily evolved into a fantastic entertainer. The Battletoads episode was a damn good twist, and if he keeps delivering original and/or hilarious examinations like these... well, I guess I'd watch them?
That's it! Next stop: The Junkyard. Population: You!

I miss the videos involving actual story telling, like Halloween.
He should do more of those...or one huge one spanning several episodes.

Since I consider the Nerd having jumped the shark with his Deadly Towers review, I wanted to give a list on which episodes I believe are the best in order. I go to bed every night with AVGN episodes looping playing all night so its just not something I having done my homework on.
Top 20
1. The Wizard/SMB3
This episode had everything that showed why the Nerd was so great. It was entertaining,informative and hilarious.
2.Ghostbusters Parts 1,2,3
You could tell he was a huge Ghostbusters fan as a child that was so disapointed by amount of shitty ghostbusters games. Probably the funniest of all the nerd episodes
3.Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
He pointed out all the things about this game that we hated. His most globally popular video
4.Nintendo Power
Could be some people's number 1 and rightly so but I believe the other 3 mentioned were better for the Nerd Charcter but this was a fun episode that was well produced.
5.The Power Glove
Another great episode, it should be in anybody's top 5
6.Simons Quest
I still agree with the Nerd about this game and all his crtiques he made despite alot of people saying he is wrong. I mean cmon, who would know to crouch?
7.Virtual Boy
One of the last great nerd game reviews
8.Festers Quest
Probably the funniest skit in all nerd history was in this episode
9.The Karate Kid
The Nerds anger was at full blast in this game, We didnt see this quit amount of flat out anger again until the Wizard of Oz review
10.Silver Surfer
As a straight out game review across the board, this is one of his strongest.
11.Bugs Bunny Birthday Blowout
12.Die Hard
13 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III Movie Review Part 1 and 2
14.32X

23. Friday the 13th
25. Atati Porn
26.Back to the Future

37.Nes Accessories
38.Bart Vs Spacemutants
39.Spiderman
40.Indiana Jones Trilogy
Top 10 worst
41. Independance Day- Yeah this is a shitty game and I guess he reviewed it because it was the 4th of July, but there were many other PS games he could have reviewed that more people knew about that were alot worse.
42.The Nerd and Captain S- I could give 2 shits about Captain S and this episode meant to be some sort of crossover but turned out to be lame and unfunny and longer than it should have been.
43.Atari 5200- While it was nice finding more about this system, the whole schtick about the power adapter got old after spending 5 minutes on it.
44. Colecovision and Intellivision- Most of us are from the NES generation, and so is the nerd, so why doesnt he actually review systems that we grew up wanting play such as the 3DO,CDI or Jaguar. I just didnt give a shit about these two systems because their old and have no appeal with them having shittier graphic than the NES.
45. Superman- While it was an decent episode, he should have just spent more time on Superman64 and skipped this game alltogether.
46.Star Trek- Him ragging on Star Trek for the NES(One of my fav games as a child) showed that he was starting to run out of ideas. It was funny that he made fun of the fact of the extensive puzzle solving, but Star Trek wasnt a shitty game like he was trying to say.
47. Batman Part 1 - The Nerd started to get flat out annoying in this episode
48.Superman64- What should have been a good review turned out to be shit. It seemed rush and unispired,
49. Batman Part 2 - The Joker(Imma make you play shitty games Batman!!!!) got on my nerves and proved the Nerd is just reusing old gags.
50.Deadly Towers- The Nerd getting other people to review a game and it turned out to be a huge mistake. The Episode sucked and is clearly the worst Nerd episode to date and I mean by alot.

Some people like the radio, others like video game music, whatever floats your boat.
