Apparently, less than a year after bankruptcy, gaming accessory maker Mad Catz is back! Apparently a company in China that was involved in the manufacturing side of some of their products purchased what remained of the company and brought the brand back, alongside many of the more popular and well received PC gaming accessories the […]
I’m a little late getting this one up – it’s already January, but this wouldn’t be the first time I was a little behind on getting to covering these. Right, let’s cut straight to this months 4 games: Van Helsing III, ZOMBI, Tomb Raider: Underworld, and Army of Two. On The Xbox One we have […]
Time for something completely different in my “what’s to come” kinds of entries. Instead of talking about my plans, I’m instead going to, by request, discuss what my friend Prince Watercress has planned for 2018. Yes, he actually requested that I write this article to help promote what he does. People who follow what I […]
Normally I would follow the proper order of releases for Angry Video Game Nerd episode reviews, but seeing as today is, well, Christmas, I felt it only proper to jump ahead and cover the 2007 Christmas Episodes – An Angry Nerd Christmas Carol. This was a pair of episodes released in December 2007 which follow […]
Ah, the Commodore 64. The best selling computer of all time, one that most anyone involved in the classic gaming scene is aware of, and those into old computers certainly must have at least tried to experience. What a better way to do this holiday than to go back to 1982/1983 and experience the in-store […]
In the interest of putting something out today (I’ve been a little under the weather the past few days), I’ve decided to break out this relic from YouTube circa 2006 – a video for a fictional game called CUBE! It’s actually a rather nice animation for what it tries to parody; late 80’s / early […]
For Independence day 2007, the Nerd reviews Independence Day for the Sony PlayStation!
Wow, we haven’t taken a look at Bits and Bytes since July! Time to get back to it. Bits and Bytes episode 8 deals with Simulation software and games which have an educational lean to them. While being an episode dealing with games, it does touch into some elements of gaming back in the early […]
Tomorrow marks the launch of the first expansion to Destiny 2 entitled “Curse of Osiris.” Just like Destiny 1, this game is going to give us 2 small expansions to freshen up content over the next few months, and then it’s safe to say next fall, about a year after the launch of the base […]
Following behind my previous article about hype culture, I wanted to discuss another trend in how upcoming things are discussed. This is something that goes in well with hype culture but deserves its own little bit of discussion: that is, when someone says something is “the future.” You will hear this one all the time […]
I’ve been meaning to write in detail about Destiny 2 for a while now – I’ve been playing the game pretty regularly and heavily the past month or so and have been enjoying myself quite a bit. One thing that I noticed but didn’t think about is that at the end of the game, once […]
Coming up on December already huh? Well, at least we know what the final Games with Gold titles for this year will be. That’s something, right? No? Well we’re looking at them anyway because, it’s just what I do around here. On the Xbox One we have Warhammer: Endtimes – Vermintide and Back to the […]
It’s been a while since we’ve last taken a look at the Game Players Game Tape series. In tape number 6 we have games from the publisher Ultra. Now, this is a funny one – the last tape was Konami games, and this one is Ultra games. Thing about that, for the few of you […]
Yippee ki-yay motherfucker! Another frustrating game based on an awesome film si what the Nerd is playing today — in this case Die Hard for the NES.
Today, November 7th, marks the release day for the Xbox One X, a console I’ve been waiting years for. Specification wise, the machine is a powerhouse, to be sure – currently, it’s the “most powerful” game console available, and honestly I want it. That simple. I want to go out and buy one today. Well, […]
