  • The Nerd dons his leather hat and whip, and delves into the holy grail of bad video games, as he looks at a collection of games based on the Indiana Jones film series, made for the Atari 2600, NES and SNES. This is Angry Video Game Nerd episode 48.
    Indiana Jones. A pop-culture icon and legend. One of the first heroes for generations of nerds worldwide. Originally released in 1981, Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark was a smash success. With Harrison Ford in the lead hot off the Star Wars Trilogy and George Lucas teaming up with Steven Speilberg it was a perfect storm for a phenomenon.
    Naturally, the franchise would get a video game treatment to capitalize on the success of games and the movies at the time. In this installment, the Nerd reviews to Atari 2600's very cryptic and surprisingly dense Raiders of the Lost Ark game.
    With the continued success of the movies the sequels also got 8 bit renditions. We also take a look at the Temple of Doom on NES, as well as the Last Crusade for NES. There is some hope as the Nerd ends with a mini-review of the SNES Indiana Jones Trilogy which finally gets the platform version right.

The whip, by contrast, came around the mid-2010s, even a little bit _after_ Miley Cyrus' infamous twerking incident with Robin Thicke. And it also has nothing to do with making a whipping motion. "Whip" is a slang term for a car.

      Well, to me IJ IV has the issue than SW VII - if you forget what franchise they belong too, they are fine movies. But when you consider them as the latest addition of their franchise, they are disappointing.
      They have different problems, but there is one terrible thing they have in common : they rely way too heavily on their predecessors using "hommage" scenes. I am going to watch IJ or SW to watch an IJ or SW movie, not to feel like I am looking at the family album with a nostalgic feeling ! And yet this is the feeling I had about both of these films.
