Back in April of 2018 I wrote a short article for the 32nd Anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster titled “The Chernobyl Disaster – Calls To The Pripyat Fire Dispatch.” It was a simple article where I shared a video I had found by the same title which had audio recordings of calls made to firefighting […]
I mentioned a while a go that I’ve had a few idea on content I’d like to write — namely, a couple of review series which I think would be pretty fun to do, and would attract an audience. As you can imagine I naturally enjoy writing about things that I, well, enjoy. That’s obvious, […]
Alright, we’re at the end of the Angry Video Game Nerd Phillips CD-i Trilogy! What a terrible show it’s been so far. I mean, the CD-i and the games presented, not the Nerd, he’s great here! Honestly these are some pretty good “golden age” Nerd episodes, and this one is a great ending to the […]
Here we go, it’s finally time for the Zelda CD-i games. Oh man, I can only imagine how hyped the fans of the Angry Video Game Nerd were to see these episodes. The video clips from the games were legendary in the early days of YouTube (being often used in many comedy video edits) and […]
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 […]
It’s the 4th of July and, in what’s becoming a tradition here, instead of typical fireworks I like to celebrate online with something with a little more power behind it – rockets. Old launches, more recent ones, it doesn’t matter to me, I just enjoy seeing these machines do their thing. These aren’t all going […]
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, […]
My buddy Prince Watercress had a bit of an issue a few nights ago. After updating his PC to Windows 10 build 1903 his system would start up in the middle of the night which, as you could imagine, was a bit of an annoyance to him. Now, Watercress decided to ask on Reddit, namely […]
We’re at the end of the month, which means another update article on this chaotic little site I like to call my digital home. We’re at the middle of the year now – 2019 is halfway done and so far, eh, it’s been an okay year. I’ve been busy, a bit more busy than I […]
Microsoft pushed it till the very end of the month again, but here we go: Another month, another set of free games with an Xbox Live Gold membership! I know I often am disappointed in these lists, but each month I always hope for the best from the upcoming lineup, as you never know when […]
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. James is playing the Nerd as Dr. Frankenstein (or, well, Dr. Franken-Nerd, I guess, to be accurate to the story) who creates a […]
Is it Halloween already? No, not really. Not at all — it’s still June right now, but this is where we are in the Angry Video Game Nerd series and as such today we’ll be looking at an episode focusing on games based on the Dracula story. The Nerd isn’t doing the most obvious ones […]
A few years ago I wrote an article titled “My Top 10 80’s Songs That Aren’t By Michael Jackson.” That article was written with the intention that I would do a top 10 Michael Jackson song list, and as you can tell from the title, this is that article. Today, June 25th 2019, marks 10 […]
It’s been quite a while since we last looked at a Computer Chronicles episode, and I thought today would be a good day to rectify this. Today we’re going to take a look at an episode from 1991 involving file compression. Yes, exciting, I know. In all seriousness it is a somewhat interesting topic – […]
Ah Dick Tracey. That name takes me back to the early 90’s quite well. As this episode of The Angry Video Game Nerd explains in its opening, Dick Tracey was a major motion picture release in 1990, based off of a somewhat obscure comic strip from the 30’s. While there had been other media based […]
