Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 59: CD-i Part I – Hotel Mario – Episode Review

It’s time for the Phillips CD-i episodes of the Angry Video Game Nerd. Not one, not two, but three episodes were devoted to this console and some of its games. Namely, the ones featuring Nintendo properties. For a very, very brief back story, the CD-i (Compact Disc Interactive) hardware was the end result of Phillips […]

Reddit And Computer Elitism (Or, How Not To Actually Answer A Question) – Part 2

Yesterday I told the story of what happened on Reddit when my friend Prince Watercress decided to ask a relatively simple tech support question in the Windows 10 subreddit. To put the relatively long story short, while one person provided actual advice (from their own experience) which didn’t solve the problem but was still helpful, […]

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 58: Frankenstein – Episode Review

Moving directly on from the previous episode on Dracula games, we have James covering games based on the Frankenstein story, with a nice little twist thrown in for his classic Halloween theatrics.

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 55: Battletoads – Episode Review

Moving on from the relative disaster that is the Deadly Towers review, we get to an Angry Video Game Nerd episode that’s much better – Battletoads. Battletoads, developed by Rare (the same people who would later create titles like Donkey Kong Country and Goldeneye 007) released this rather well loved game in 1991. It blended […]

Another Adpocalypse? Cry Me A River.

Apparently, in the YouTube scene, we’re going through another “Adpocalypse” — a situation on YouTube where advertising revenue takes a dive because advertisers got pissed about something some big YouTube content creator did and YouTube decides to be more strict on what content can actually be monetized on the site. For those keeping track, this […]
