He changed it twice. After this episode, he moved away the second time. Also, what do you mean "the visuals are different"? What do you think it is, a Hollywood soundstage? James is a filmmaker, but he doesn't have THAT kind of budget.
Let it also sink in that the span of time between the game’s release and this video’s original airing is now smaller than the span of time between the video and now.
I'll bet he knowingly ended the video that way so it could come back as the 'Nuclear Man Cartridge' version, and he could then hurl more epithets at it if desired..
"That's like saying the shit that I took last night was better than the shit I took the day before." - AVGN Still my favorite line by him. Never gets old.
If you're constipated 1 day, and it's smooth (not diarrhea-grade) the next, you may think the later one was better. Ah, a smooth one that leaves you feeling like your blood circulation thanks you; that's a thing.
Yes, I know it's a joke. Hopefully I didn't ruin it.
I’d have to agree with both points! I know AVGN is a character and he exaggerates some of his rants sometimes…but the way he delivers this line and his rant after playing Batman Forever really feels like James Rolfe is legitimately ticked 😂
I bought this game for 2 dollars at a pawn shop. Figured it would either be a steal, or money I wouldn't miss. Now I think I'd have been better off buying a lottery ticket, or a drink, or a half gallon of gas, or a shitload of Ramen noodles. Something, anything that I would've gotten more out of than I did this game
This day 10 years ago, my friend introduced me to the Nerd, and it was this very video. I was only 12 years old and straight away I absolutely fell in love with this series. 10 years on, I guess nothing has changed
The beta version of Superman 64 (Nintendo of course) was actually not that bad. It had no ring levels what so ever. The problem was that about a month before release, Warner Bros. demanded the game be remade because of certain reasons. Look it up on youtube or something. There was also a PS1 version made by Titus too. It was a good game with great ratings, but by that time, Titus' license for Superman had ran out and they couldn't release it. It's a shame because they both were going to be good games. Don't blame Titus. Blame Warner Bros. for ruining the game.
A bit funny how the game was downgraded with every single change from the ps1 version. I want to know what the fuck was the development process behind this game because there's no way the final release is final at all it looks more like a fucking alpha test version.
minigunexo Don't forget it was during that N64 and PS1 era when games based on movies became utter garbage, with Goldeneye being one of the very few that was good.
+Jon Michael Halsey The game actually sold really well ironically. Back then reviews weren't as big so it was more common for people to just blindly buy a game without having a clue about the actual game play. Hence why so many people were unfortunate enough to buy that game lol.
+copper4eva I remember reading about this in Nintendo Power. They were going on about how great the graphics were and how realistic the criminal fighting was.
A: Time passed from when the game came out to when AVGN reviewed it. B: Time passed from when AVGN reviewed the game to the moment I am typing this. I seriously can't believe B > A.
you know whats funny? if you wait at the title screen for a while you get a demo replay of the game dev's attempt at this peice of crap. and at the end he gives just gives and says f this! and even the developer is not able to fly throught the damn rings!
"This game isn't even 10 years old!" You're right, it's 20 years old now! I can't believe this review came out so long ago. It's amazing how time flies.
Games would have cards like that to input passwords from so you couldn't just copy the game to another floppy and give it away. (you could just copy the codes though...)
"can you believe this game is barely 10 years old?!?!" well now i can since its 2018 but can you believe this fucking game is almost 20 years old?! and memories of playing it as a child still scar me.
There should be a DC animated movie where someone gets kidnapped, so Superman goes to save them. He swoops down and lands on a nearby highway only to see giant floating rings forming an irregular path. In the street in blood is written "If you want to save your friends, you must solve my maze." He is immobilized by flashbacks and another hero has to step in.
The "Superman 64" episode is iconic but I can totally see why there was a follow-up several years later. The Nerd mostly focused on the infamous rings after all! 🤓
+JoystickLad And this is why I don't look to IGN for most reviews. "You can't go fast in Sonic Lost World," guess that's why it's possible for people to beat stages in a fucking minute.
leohpndbz Because they're infamous for giving stupid scores for illegitimate reasons, such as their most popularly joked about review about Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, "7.8/10, too much water"
Look on the bright side. At least you only rented it and got stuck with it for a weekend, rather than buying it and getting stuck with it for months/years.
The story for this game is that you are Superman, you are stuck in a virtual reality game designed by Lex Luthor, and you must complete this virtual reality game in order to save your friends/loved ones (who are never seen outside of the game's intro and ending). Since Lex Luthor designed the virtual reality you are in, it stands to reason that everything would be designed to prevent Superman (i.e. you) from winning. Lex Luthor discovered the only way he could actually defeat Superman: bait Superman into entering a glitch-infested, virtual reality game of Lex's own design. In the 90's TV show, Lex Luthor is a corrupt business man, not a game designer!
This game might as well be called Puppy Dog Obedience School, because Superman doesn't get to do anything heroic. You spend almost the entire game performing whatever demeaning tricks that Lex Luthor demands. It's the classic villain plot "Make Superman fly through 75 hula hoops in one minute or die!" followed by the evil plan "Make Superman fly through 75 MORE hula hoops in one minute or again... die!" SPOILER ALERT! Level 2 is "Retrieving Lex's Slippers" and Level 3 is "Learning to Shit on the Paper."
*In the game making office* Guy: Alright, we have to make a Superman Game... Any ideas? Other guy: I got it! Make him fly through rings, pick up cars, then fly through rings again! Guy: Amazing! *Everyone claps*
I remember getting my 64 back in 98-99 i was at kmart about to pick a game it was either this or winback this is where i made the worst decision of my life.
I did the same. Except it was between this and smash Bros. I chose this because my friend down the street had smash bros on his n64. Then that kid died of leukemia and I was stuck with Superman 64.
Wow. When this episode came out, Superman 64 wasn’t even 10 years old yet. Now, we’re coming up on 3 decades. In just 5 years it’ll be 30 years old. That’s crazy.
Superman: so what games have you had lately? Batman: well i have the arkham game series the lego batman series and scribblenauts unmasked what have you been doing? Superman: Superman 64! Batman: oh sounds good! (after playing the game) Batman: you were seriously in this game?! Superman: I KNOW! AND I REGRET BEING IN THIS!(hurls in a ball then cries)
You got lucky I was stupid as a kid I spent $59.99 on this piece of shit I gave my money back to my mom and I got as far as the garage facing darkside. This game sucks!!
This is by far the best AVGN theme remix I've ever heard, and I always this is the episode for it. I always think it's the 100th episode, then Street fighter 2010, then AVGN fangames, then Odysee, one time I even checked the Megaman one!
i remember renting this game from bb and thinking holy fuck im going to destroy so much shit anf fuck up everyone because SUPERMAN! i cried that whole week.
That C64 game doesn't look so bad. But, yeah, all you have to say about Superman 64 is Titus. The lesser known deformed cousin to LJN. And hell, Titus are actual developers, not publishers who have no concept of quality control or standards.

Fun Fact: This is the last AVGN episode before James moved into the basement, where he has filmed all of his subsequent episodes up to now.
Jonathan Szuhai I noticed that 2
Jonathan Szuhai no that's bible games 1 that was his old apartment this is in his basement but the visuals are different
He changed it twice. After this episode, he moved away the second time. Also, what do you mean "the visuals are different"? What do you think it is, a Hollywood soundstage? James is a filmmaker, but he doesn't have THAT kind of budget.
And James was living in his parent's house before episode 3
He moved again in 2015

The story for this game is that you are Superman, you are stuck in a virtual reality game designed by Lex Luthor, and you must complete this virtual reality game in order to save your friends/loved ones (who are never seen outside of the game's intro and ending). Since Lex Luthor designed the virtual reality you are in, it stands to reason that everything would be designed to prevent Superman (i.e. you) from winning. Lex Luthor discovered the only way he could actually defeat Superman: bait Superman into entering a glitch-infested, virtual reality game of Lex's own design. In the 90's TV show, Lex Luthor is a corrupt business man, not a game designer!
And the antagonist switches to Brainiac at the end.
3:50 “why not the John Williams theme”
Later on he realized it was based on the Superman Animated series
This game might as well be called Puppy Dog Obedience School, because Superman doesn't get to do anything heroic. You spend almost the entire game performing whatever demeaning tricks that Lex Luthor demands. It's the classic villain plot "Make Superman fly through 75 hula hoops in one minute or die!" followed by the evil plan "Make Superman fly through 75 MORE hula hoops in one minute or again... die!" SPOILER ALERT! Level 2 is "Retrieving Lex's Slippers" and Level 3 is "Learning to Shit on the Paper."
***** and third. and fifth. and seventh....
+Jonathan Szuhai are you actually defending superman 64?

"That's like if they made a Batman game where all he does is just play hopscotch"
Yep, its Batman: Dark Tomorrow
I had the GameCube version as a kid. It was... sad.
Did AVGN go through rings for throw the cartridge to the sun?
Um.... maybe?
Shad40001 if he have pass through all them, he's a fucking pro
This comment made my day lol
Boris Nedev lol :v
***** NO, he just went to the sun without any rings. That part was when I wanted to name him SuperNerd.Why:Because he had a shirt with an S on it.
Watching in 1786
Nice.
Nice.
Kek
No body!
+A Banana How did you get wireless signals to travel through time portals, assuming that's how you're watching in the 18th century?
That computer game looked better than the 64 game!
by better you mean infinitely better.
The devs to the level designer: Hey can you make some creative levels?
The level designer: *R I N G S*
*In the game making office* Guy: Alright, we have to make a Superman Game... Any ideas? Other guy: I got it! Make him fly through rings, pick up cars, then fly through rings again! Guy: Amazing! *Everyone claps*
I remember getting my 64 back in 98-99 i was at kmart about to pick a game it was either this or winback this is where i made the worst decision of my life.
Winback is Resident Evil 4 on an N64. Superman 64 is...this.
I did the same. Except it was between this and smash Bros. I chose this because my friend down the street had smash bros on his n64. Then that kid died of leukemia and I was stuck with Superman 64.
sneaky_D buddy...
That fucking sucks
This should have been the 64th episode.
Good one
Last episode I checked the episode number then exclaimed shit
+Kaelen O'Hea Ikr? That would've been fitting as fuck. :)

+Kaelen O'Hea Nice 64 likes
Wow. When this episode came out, Superman 64 wasn’t even 10 years old yet. Now, we’re coming up on 3 decades. In just 5 years it’ll be 30 years old. That’s crazy.
Yep, 2008 was a little while ago indeed!
Superman: so what games have you had lately?
Batman: well i have the arkham game series the lego batman series and scribblenauts unmasked what have you been doing?
Superman: Superman 64!
Batman: oh sounds good!
(after playing the game)
Batman: you were seriously in this game?!
Superman: I KNOW! AND I REGRET BEING IN THIS!(hurls in a ball then cries)
this game is also superman's kryptonite
Lmao !!
Superman was also in Scribblenauts Unmasked. So was Cyborg.
WHY DO I GOTTA DO THAAAAAAAT
i cracked up at that line!
SO MUCH ROOOOOOOOOOM
So anyway you get this comic book storyline thing, and then-
*loading screen*

PROBABLY TWO WEEKS LATER WHEN YOU FINALLY GET TO PLAY THE GAME you’ll find that it’s actually pretty decent
5:08 Now the game is almost 30 years old

axelfoley20 Yup
+Nope Guy yep*
These videos give off such an old school cozy vibe, they're so nice
Man, Superman must be really cursed when it comes to video games lol.
"This game isn't even 10 years old"
And now we live in the year 2017 where this game is 18 years old. My god does time fly.
I crash landed my time machine in 1207 BC, and now I have to wait all the way back to the 32nd century if you want to talk about time.
7:30 Maddest he's ever sounded except when playing Batman Forever.
This and the batman review were my favourite videos XD
@@Spectre32 Same. I love DC.
I hated this game. Rented it from Blockbuster, got frustrated with the rings and controls, and took it back the same day.
Nathan Schneider literally same here. either that or I popped in super Mario or super smash Bros and didn't touch it again until I had to return it.
Nathan Schneider At least you were smart enough to just rent it.
Imagine going to Blockbuster on Friday night, before a 3-day weekend, and unwittingly renting this.
Actually, just imagine going to Blockbuster.
😃
You got lucky I was stupid as a kid I spent $59.99 on this piece of shit I gave my money back to my mom and I got as far as the garage facing darkside. This game sucks!!
Nathan Schneider
Same!
"Why not the Superman theme? You know the John Williams one?"
Or the Superman: The Animated Series one.
They used the John Williams Superman theme for the Commodore 64 game.
@@TheScribe1.0 it wasn't based on The Animated Series.
This is by far the best AVGN theme remix I've ever heard, and I always this is the episode for it. I always think it's the 100th episode, then Street fighter 2010, then AVGN fangames, then Odysee, one time I even checked the Megaman one!
i remember renting this game from bb and thinking holy fuck im going to destroy so much shit anf fuck up everyone because SUPERMAN! i cried that whole week.
That C64 game doesn't look so bad.
But, yeah, all you have to say about Superman 64 is Titus. The lesser known deformed cousin to LJN. And hell, Titus are actual developers, not publishers who have no concept of quality control or standards.
