This is the point where, from a historical perspective the Angry Video Game Nerd start to really get interesting – the “Double Vision” episodes. For those previous years, the character and the series were generally focused on games from the Nintendo Entertainment System, with some branching out Sega Genesis and Super NES topics with only …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 43: The Wizard Of Oz – Episode Review
The Wizard Of Oz episode of The Angry Video Game Nerd is one I consider somewhat pivotal at the very least in my personal experience with the series, as this is actually the first episode of AVGN which I saw when it was new. I recall a friend and his brother watching it in early …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 42: Virtual Boy – Episode Review
Time to get into Season 3 of The Angry Video Game Nerd, and this particular season starts off rather strong with the Nerd’s review of Nintendo’s first true failure of a gaming system, the Virtual Boy. The Virtual Boy is quite the unique console, seemingly designed for virtual reality, it really never got much further …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 41: Rambo – Episode Review
Time to finish off Season 2 of The Angry Video Game Nerd, and we have quite the review to go out on – Rambo, on the NES! Now, this is a game I actually had for my NES when I was a kid. I have vague memories of playing it and not having a good …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 40: The Legend of Zelda Timeline – Episode Review
We have another odd Nerd episode here – one discussing the timeline for “The Legend of Zelda” game series, at least as it was in 2006. This comes off the previous “Movie and Video Game sequels” video, but was shelved, only to be tweaked a bit and released in January 2008, making it out of …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 38 / 39: An Angry Nerd Christmas Carol – Episode Review
It’s time for the 2007 Christmas Episodes – An Angry Nerd Christmas Carol! This was a pair of episodes released in December 2007 which follow the classic holiday story of “A Christmas Carol” but with the Nerd replacing Scrooge. Christmas is still key, of course, but the idea here is how it relates to the …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 37: Dragon’s Lair – Episode Review
Dragons Lair was an amazing game for its day. At least, an impressive one, anyway, for appearances, if not for gameplay. It used a LaserDisc system to play video clips that the player would react to, making decisions to progress in the game. Think “Quick Time Events” in games like God of War, Shenmue, and …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 36: Halloween – Episode Review
That’s right, we’re doing back to back Nerd episode reviews. In this case, we hit the second half of the Halloween 2007 videos, the other Atari 2600 game James bought in the last episode… Halloween. This game is, debatably, a little better. It’s got it’s own gory elements, much like Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but at …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 35: Texas Chainsaw Massacre – Episode Review
Here we have the first of the Halloween 2007 Angry Video Game Nerd videos. This one focuses on the rather rare Atari 2600 game “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre” which is based on the movie of the same name. At least, it’s supposed to be, but given this is Atari, things are, well, up for …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 34: Fester’s Quest – Episode Review
As promised in the Nintendo Power episode, the next video James did for the Angry Video Game Nerd covered the NES game Fester’s Quest, a rather unique video game adaptation of the classic Addams Family franchise. The entire episode is really a tribute to the Addams Family, with James playing all the members of the …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 33: Nintendo Power – Episode Review
Here we go, time to cover one of the more popular episodes of The Angry Video Game Nerd! This time around, the Nerd doesn’t take a look at a game – oh no, he takes a look at the one thing that every kid who grew up playing Nintendo wanted other than the next new …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 32: Atari Porn – Episode Review
Well, I knew this one was coming. A relatively infamous episode of The Angry Video Game Nerd, this video focuses on several video games produced for the Atari 2600 that were of a less-than-proper nature, shall we say – the legendary “Atari Porn” games. Yes, seriously, video games for the Atari 2600 that were focused …

Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 31: Bugs Bunny’s Birthday Blowout – Episode Review
Time for another episode in the same style as Spider-Man or the 2006 Halloween episodes – this one is another one split between gameplay footage and a review, and some live action storytelling with James and his friend Mike Matei. In this case, the game being covered is “Bugs Bunny’s Birthday Blowout,” a game released …
