Well, that was a very interesting review. I had never even heard of the Odyssesy, much less knew it was the first game system. As an ATHF fan I loved the appearance of Master Shake. And that Odyssey gun at the end was friggin' sweet. I guess that's the only redeemable quality of the system. And yeah, Shit Pickle>>>>>>>>>Nerdy Turd.

i miss SHITPICKLE….i even use that word when iam crazy..SHITPICKLE SHITPICKLE arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggg
-
Oh god, did he die? My condolences to his family. :sad: Goodbye, Shitpickle. Rest in peace.
Anyway, this review was kickass! Not that I was expecting less from the nerd. They always make me laugh, no matter how many times I watch them! After all, he's the ANNNNGRYYYYYY VIDEOO GAMEE NEEEEEEEEEERRRD!
-
The reason no one liked Shit Pickle was because it was…well, a dumb idea. It eventually got copied by Chris Bores (aka Irate Gamer) by using a Maple Story avatar. That in turn made the concept even worse.
That and James attempted a little spin-off for SP.

The "spin-off" you speak of actually came before the review and he was promoting it by using Shit Pickle in his vid. Not that it matters anyway, but just saying.
-
Oh I know. Was just pointing out that SP had further screentime outside of James' Wizard of Oz movie spoof and the Master Chu and Drunkard Hu review. :P
-
Nah I gots ya'. Hahaha
-
Nice review. I was hoping he'd review X-men: Mutant Apocalypse for the SNES since that's the only X-men game I really played and have very fond memories of.
-
Good one, but I hardly saw the angry side of AVGN. Regardless, still a pwnage review as always.

I agree. I mean, it WAS a good review, but James didn't get extremely mad, and his anger is what I like about his reviews.
-
I actually enjoy him reviewing better than his anger and antics, but ya, it's sort of his gimmick now, so the fans expect it. it's like homer simpson without the Do'h.

yeah thats a shot on the money..james should do over and over again the same angry attitude to every shitty game..when he have a good idea to show his anger he should do it..but if not he should just review the shit and give it in the end an angry view orso :)..i liked the x-man review was good shown and i like it ,when we see much of the game ..
-
Rewatched his Star Trek review since he posted it on YT. Still hilarious as ever.
-
star trek? I don't remember that.

Well, he's the Angry Video Game Nerd after all. You could take away the Do'h from Homer, and he still would be the same, but the whole concept of the AVGN is getting angry over bad video games, so It's essential.
But I don't mind, I like all his reviews the same, with or without shouting. -

With the upcoming release of Terminator: Salvation he's doing the Terminator games.
-
There we go, now that was a nice review. Got angry a few times, I'm happy of that.
And… has anyone noticed the nerd has gotten kinda chubby? Just compare him to his older reviews, he surely gained some weight there. o.O
-
was a good review…loved the part where he put a clamp on his controller,but after a few hours he still hadn`t more than 6 lives...LOL
-
Haha, i think it's his best video in a while…loved the 6 lives bit and the LJN cliffhanger.
-
I could understand why devs would make a game challenging, but awful to a point it feels unplayable? Good review. Those games were crap, though the last was seemed like something I would play.
-

second part of the terminator-reviews..
enjoy it
-
God I hated LJN.

Hey.. uh… bump.

TRANSFORMERS. OH BOY. -
that review was kinda dull, but only because the games were so lame. I liked the famicom bit.
-
I still have a collection of those Commodore 64 cassettes somewhere. I don't miss. At all. The cassettes or C64.
Is he going to make another episode about Transformers games? I mean I would guess there would still be plenty of Transformers games to cover.
-
I have a Famicom lying around here. All that japanese shit, mine for the taking (I have a lot of games for it).
And the review was OK as usual. But the nerd seemed a bit different. I don't know, it's not something I can explain, but he's different.
Just compare him to his older reviews. Now he's less energetic, less motivated to show us some hardcore fucking nerdrage. Maybe he's growing tired of it. I hope I'm wrong, though.
Nerd <3
-
The latest Nerd was pretty lame. The fact that the Famicon transformed and killed him at the end made it for me, since the review sucked so hard. There were some good parts as usual but this was as bad as that one he did a few weeks ago with the Nerdy Turd.
-
I think it's because we've already seen most of the funny scenarios we expect in his previous reviews.
-
This was the best episode in a long time.
It felt like a classic Nerd episode from 2006.
How is it as bad as the Odyssey review? God you people are picky. -

E3 really drains the hell out of people.

nicce video..and james..nicce you rly beat that suckgame..he`s the best
-
Regardless of this phase, he's still lovable as all hell!
-
New review is out: Mario is Missing.
Wow, that game sure sucked. -
New review is out: Mario is Missing.
Wow, that game sure sucked.Holy crap, i still remember the kid-me's huge disappointment when i rented that, haha. Gonna watch it now.
-
Ah yes, I remember these. You know, I must've like a PC version of the Mario is Missing game because from what I remember it didn't look anything like the NES or SNES versions. Hell, I didn't even get that it was an educational game. I thought it was just an exploring kind of game. Also, I did rent the SNES version of Mario's Time Machine, but I couldn't even figure out how to get past that opening room with the items in it Well, I'm glad I didn't end up bothering with them.
-
I rented that game too. though, it was kinda lame, and not what i was expecting. I did like learning some of that stuff. too bad there wasn't a canadian version.
-
Anyone see his latest Board James review on his site? Pretty weak overall, just a bunch of bad jokes using the f-word. Now one could argue that that is what the AVGN is built on but if you compare the two the comparison doesn't really hold up.

I thought it was pretty good. I'm actually starting to appreciate the calm side of the nerd. It's still entertaining, even if he isn't angry. And well, he isn't SUPPOSED to be, as this is Board James and not AVGN. And who was that guy? Is he the infamous Mike Matei (I honestly couldn't find even one picture of him, throughout my research on Google)?
Overall for me. Not the best, but a nice review.
-
both board james and the new avgn video rly sucked…
board james just showed the ad and than they played..not good at all..even mike matei did a good job when we can talk here about anything good..:ninja:
and avgn..he wasnt angry..the games sucked to make a review about...wasn
t funny in my opinion..les wait for the next review...will sure be better -
I know AVGN and Screwattack aren't the same thing, but– I just love how SA took Michael Jackson's death as an opportunity to do a Video Game Vault episode on Moonwalker... and make it nothing but immature pedo jokes. Real clever, guys.
-
It's a universal thought process. Everyone who's looked back at the game has made SOME KIND of jab at the possibility of the game telling us what was to come within his life.
And really, why is it suddenly taboo to make fun of Michael Jackson? Because he dead? Why was it okay to make cracks when he was alive, but suddenly you're an asshole for making jokes when he's dead?

It's called respect for the dead. There's nothing wrong with making fun of celebrities, but going out of your way to make fun of them because they're dead…that's kind of in bad taste.
-
Except…they weren't making jokes because he's dead. o_O
I mean, face it. The Michael Jackson that died isn't the same Michael Jackson from the 80s.
-
Just wait a couple weeks and we can make fun of MJ again. There's a thing called "Too Soon" and we should wait it out before we can call Jacko a pedophile again.
On-Topic: Anyone check out his Top Ten Dumbest Indiana Jones Moments? Honestly it wasn't that good. I liked the little history but they're popcorn flicks, they're going to be filled with dumb moments (though I agree the Fridge in Crystal Skull was stupid).
-
Come on, let's be honest. You know they did that episode because he died. It just gives me the impression that they said "Hey, Michael Jackson's dead! Let's insult him even more!" Plus, I got pissed when people made pedo jokes about him while he was still alive.
EDIT:AVGN himself was more resectful when he reviewed Moonwalker.
-

Well, I'm not gonna say anymore because I haven't actually seen the video. But I don't believe for an instant that the creation of this video at this point and time was just a coincidence. There's wrong with making tribute videos that may have some jokes and stuff. But if they were in fact making pedo-jokes as Super-Franky said…well, that just seems very disrespectful to me.

@Don:
board james just showed the ad and than they played..not good at all
Someone hasn't actually played a board game with a friend to get the whole point to the more recent Board James.
I do believe the point to Board James is to bring back nostalgic memories of old board games from most of our youth. Remember, that's more among the lines of James Rolfe, NOT the Angry Video Game Nerd. So obviously you're not gonna hear any "This game is aaaaaass." or "Fuckballs" in those videos.
He showed the ad, explained how it was played and basically recreated an exact situation (well, CG effects aside) of playing that type of game with a friend. Especially when one has a cheating bastard of a friend. :P
