The fact that James can still consistently make great episodes of this show after 15 years is astounding.
To think This show is 1 year younger than me, yet I can still watch new episode of it.
12. Stuff he didn't bother showing anyone doesn't count.
@@PubliusAfricanus AVGN started in 2004
@Shannon Shaw 15 now...
Willz __ what do you mean? I still enjoy it
The Ha Ha Ha room must be one of the most twisted things a game designer ever put in a game.
I guess they just fucked up and forgot to make an exit in this room
Or they just put it in there to mess with us lol
I thought the same thing, ha ha :p
The original GBJ room?
They knew the game was shit and that was definitely a deliberate insult.
As much time has passed between the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde episode of AVGN (June 2004) to now (August 2018), as the time between when Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was released (April 1989) to the AVGN episode about it.
In case ya'll didn't have a reason to feel old today.
holy crap lol
cool
*y'all
Just thought I'd be that guy.
TheErlex I think you got your math mixed it ? It’s been 14 years since the Dr Jekyll episode . 1 year off but still that’s a long time gap in between the years.
Hole. E. Shit
"It's not like Scorpion from Mortal Kombat actually throws scorpions at people."
That would just make him more dangerous.
He became DVorah number 2.
He can turn into a giant scorpion in MK4
Don't give Ed Boon any ideas!!!
@@KTtheKomic At 6:36 What happened?
Well, he's not Darth Vader who can turn into a scorpion.
Go ahead Nerd, Make My Day...
Evan! What are you doing here?
yea, he still got it ; )^^
Yeah make my day of putting a half life reference and sonic in the mix for me....
Evan Lefavor:
The Nerd should play “Clean Larry” for a change!
Duke, is that you??
Gotta love, how casual James is with the ”Ha Ha Ha” -room, not even really bothering to rant about the game literally making fun of you. At this point, he really has seen everything. 😆
A new AVGN before I go to sleep.........I do feel lucky.
SilverShion yes
SilverShion haha
I'll watch it at breakfast xD
punk
A new AVGN before going to work.... As a punk, I do feel lucky indeed.
James has not once begged for likes or subs in any of His videos, He lets the audience decide if He's worthy of our viewership, for that reason alone I have always admired James as a youtuber from day one all the way back to the early days of youtube
He hates what I like tho, how dare he
@King Kong Fan Did Luigi ever get King Kong back to New York to protect it from Godzilla
It's a really unnecessary thing to do anyhow. There's a Subscribe and Like button right there. Unless someone is physically unable, they'll tap both if they enjoy your content. You don't have to ask
James Rolfe is old school UA-cam content creator.
That is so true! I have never noticed that
There's another "HA HA HA" type moment in the sewer. If you go down a wrong ladder, the ladder disappears and you get trapped and have to reset. I owned this game so I played it A LOT. During the city level, one of the rooms has a dresser with grappling hooks which you need to get through the Alcatraz level. You select it on the select screen during the cliff part and it becomes your primary item. I'm not sure if you get these if you use the "Bird" password. But either way it takes a lot of trial and error to find the rightspot to stand to use the grappling hooks since you only have 10. And there are random boulders falling from above. I would never even try playing this game without the "Clyde" password.
Oof, man! What a painful, painful childhood.
Does it say hahaha on the sewer
I'm still baffled that they would make intentional dead end rooms without any warning like that, or is it some obscure reference to the Dirty Harry movies as well?
Blackleg Melloi Nope but if I recall correctly I think there was a dead body down there. I need to play again to find it. I can’t find any reference to it anywhere.
Plasma Octopus not that I’m aware of.
All these years later and the theme song, even when covered by someone else, still makes me smile and leaves me feeling good.
That "ha ha ha" room is possibly one of the most cruel things I've ever seen put into a video game. It's more what you'd expect in a modern ROM hack, and not an official game. Even worse being in what's already a pile of shit.
From what I hear, the King's Quest games did stuff disturbingly familiar to that as well.
Well, that's true. There's one where you can stick a lockpick up your own nose and stab your brain. 🤣
I guess it was the time before game studios figured out such boundaries. Super mario lost levels had lots of dead end with suicide options.
Yeah, but that let you game-over and escape the situation without having to start from 1-1 again.
The pick your nose thing is from Hero's Quest (renamed as Quest for Glory). The puzzles in that were less complex and so there were fewer dead ends.
"Being that this is a Konami Justifier, the most powerful light gun in the world" killed me 🤣🤣🤣
Ikr
Nice
Blow your label clean off!
That remix at the intro was great!
Nice to see another classic-styled AVGN episode.
NintendoFan agreed. Loved thenchunky metal riff
The 44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world.
Bounces off a big dude's chest like a ping pong ball.
+Rhino 'n Chips
the statement was never true, even back then^^ 44 mag is lovely nevertheless
I hate you for making me chuckle at such an awful pun.
That is because he loaded it with .44 Specials in the films.
Should’ve had the colt single action army, 6 bullets.........more than enough to kill anything that moves
Pools Closed
Untrue. The Colt Single Action Army used the .45 Colt round. Colt later developed the .45 ACP (widely used during the time of this movie) as its equal but for semi-auto pistols. Both of these were weaker than the .44 Magnum.
As a side note: you never load six in an old single-action pistol.
Watching you for 10 years.
And still amazed by your genius movies.
code- Rno : je suis fan absolu de James. Depuis presque 10 ans. Ce mec est mon inspiration principale à être sur youtube et faire des courts métrages. Il est mon Dieux. Un symbole de créativité er de virilité. Il a sortit son film au cinéma. C'est le boss absolu du game.
code- Rno : ho poutain... me parle pas du joueur du grenier. Pour moi il n'est qu'une pale et fade copie. Comparer les deux c'est faire insulte au génie de James Rolf. Je suis sérieux.
Agreed
no u
Watching the nerd since 2008, too!
Avgn: is there any city with this much crime?
Me: Chicago
Chiraq you mean?
*Detroit
Or any Liberal/Democrat city :D
Birmingham
Napoli too
30% comments actually talking about the game.
70% just weren't aware that the AVGN series has been using various remixes of the intro all this time.
Are you the 9 percent?
You forgot the cynical percentage of comment trolls who have nothing better to do than whine about other commenters' comments.
The Music is actually genious
After the very intense Earthbound episode (which was amazing), it’s kinda refreshing to go back and see a traditional nerd style episode.
Yeah this one really brought me back to the 2000s, lol.
Too mellow imo, old nerd would've gotten much much angrier and exaggerated. But I love AVGN and I love James Rolfe, just happy to see he's still doing things and not completely disappearing like so many others from the primordial age of UA-cam.
One of the OG youtubers.....this guy helped me get through some tough times in my life for almost a decade
Alana Rae same here holy shit. A new avgn episode gave me hope in life.
His videos do a lot for all of us. He is truly amazing
Man, that's a kick ass intro cover.
His name is Nestalgica. He makes kickass video game covers and some tv show covers. I want to make my own cover of the AVGN song too
@@Consolous collab?
Unfortunatetribes metallica
Sounds good? Best cover ever!!
This has been the sickest cover yet! I mean honestly, this intro was badass!
Ahh my favorite show on UA-cam...!
You're a close second mate!!
ProtoMario BUT PROOOOTOOOOOOOOOOOO
ProtoMario
but Proto
Mine too ProtoMario, mine too.
BUUUUT PROTO YOUR SHOW IS GOOD TOO
Lmao that ending was so satisfying
Movie: Dirty Harry
Game: Filthy Harry
ljn vesion coverd in shit
Book: Harry Potter
Yay, I'm not alone.
Sequel: Biohazardous Harry
Trilogy: Toxic Harry
“Each crowbar can only be used once” that is so stupid and I love it.
Marathoned the whole series. Love how crisp and clear the gameplay footage in the new AGVN episodes are. Also miss the random videos like Zelda timeline, and confusing movie titles. But I guess that's for his other series now. The Halloween timeline episode was great!
It’s been clear for a while
How long did that take you?
I've seen every episode but I took it over a month. If you did it in 1 sitting (marathon)... I guess it would only take one day but fuck that's... almost the whole day?
same
I marathon the series all the time
I always like to watch AVGN episodes at the beach.
it's the middle of the night...
chatotalks you do realize its not the night for the entire world right?
nice sydney rule34 pic
Why at the beach
chatotalks well yeah, but I always remember a time of being at San Onofre and watching the action 52 videos. It was a good day that one
So I kinda just made it a tradition
The lady who gives you extra lives is like the ladies in Zelda 2 who “Restore your health” if you know what I mean......heh
its funnier in Zelda though cause they actually go in a room together and you see them close the door
Pffff. What, no Golgo13 reference???
Damn she likes to help guys out 🤣
RIP Dirty Harry Game
1990-2018
"Snakes in the apartment just slithering it up". That one got me lol
Dirty Potter and the Ophidian Flats o/
It's funny, I had rewatched all the Dirty Harry movies a few weeks ago, and I could have sworn you had done a video on it. So I go over to the computer and to my surprise, no AVGN review of Dirty Harry. Then to my surprise a few days ago, you put out a trailer for this video. You have no idea how great this is.
John Tucker
I think that was Jontron, his anti drug episode iirc
John Tucker OMG Good Timing, Man!
The nerd still making good content after all this time
I've been watching for 12 years, fuuuuck. James has still got it
Andrew Gerety yep
not you damn... so long. Feel old already
The jokes are pretty stale though
fascinatinglist you probably think Mall cop 2 is a funny movie stfu
I love how whenever the Nerd includes “parody” moments in his episodes, they usually stay on topic in relation to the game he’s reviewing. Unlike the Nostalgia Critic, who just references whatever random movie he happens to be a fan of. A fine example is his review of Fant4stic, where he performs a parody of the “...But I can carry you.” scene from LOTR, even though The Lord of the Rings has nothing to do with the Fantastic Four.
AVGN is like South Park and Nostalgia Critic is like Family Guy.
@@jelanitoons what, one's run by an overrated liberal and the other by normal guys having a laugh?
Already one of the top ten best endings in AVGN
nik700 or top ten anime battles
top ten worst openings too.
Jeffery Jeck RRRRRRRREEEEEEE!!!!!!
GET OUT NORMIE!!!1!1!1!!1!1!1!1!one!!1!1!1
and openings as well
Not by a long shot.
If you think collecting cocaine is bad, you should review Takeshi's Challenge.
Csúb - Az Űrmedve NOOOOOOOO! Seriously have you seen that game?(life experience?) It's too much for any man women or good to take it's one hell of a challenge all right.
10/10
10/10, 100/100
BEST GAME. *BEST GAME.*
Pay alimony or punch
out of this house
get it?
Jared Connell ... go away
If u just glance at the dirty harry cover he looks like Hugh Jackman
Jackman wishes he was as badass as Eastwood.
Do ya feel lucky, bub? Well, _do ya?_
Ah, just posted the same thing! Shoulda scrolled down.
Huge Jackman
He's Wolverine from the X-Men movies
*"Geez, is there any city with this much crime?!"*
Uhhh, Chicago? Lol
Minneapolis
Clearwater
@@Skeletty1710 Where is Clearwater located? 🤔
I guess you have to ask yourself one question: Should you re-watch this video six times or only five?
19thHour seven
Is this James’ burner account? 😂
Well, with all of the confusion I kind of forgot.
Re-watch what? He skipped all game.
eight times
i like how since he cant yell swears as much because of his kid but he made up for the lack of swearing by adding more visual jokes ^_^ been watching for at least 9 years minimum.
He's a father!?
The #6 Runaway Guys Fan yeah he had a daughter a while back he talked about it when he was doing updates on the AVGN movie and when he showed jontron arround the cinnemassacer video store he talked about how his daughter tore apart one of the boxes trying to open it. shes arround 5 or 6.
Night Exorcist why would swearing with his kids around matter my dad always swore around me all the time he still does and I'm 32
92Dups dont you start too leave his dad out of this
The impression at the end was on point.
"The city is trying to kill a police officer in broad daylight!"
This aged well.
Why?
@@gezi5927 900 officer casualties since the riots started 🤷
Gezi5, I see. Man on a mission. :D There’s a lot more comment sections to go through.
It's now reality in some cities.
Especially those controlled by liberals.
There are a number of uninformed alt righters in this comment section. Just here for the jokes I guess.
The Godfather of Gaming reviews is back ^_^
My Dad beats me I'm sorry your dad beats you
Yeah, but unlike the godfather of abridged series, this godfather has gotten worse with time.
My god. You shot Castlevania! You monster!
gutz1981 I'm sure he's not the only gamer from the 80's who's brought harm to that game.
That's what I noticed in that whole sequence, too. Castlevania Bloodlines gets overlooked enough as it is
I’m pretty sure it was Simons Quest...
Probably a video effect
gutz1981 An innocent caught in the crossfire
The "Ha Ha Ha" Room: Because why reward players for exploring?
That room was obviously the work of the Joker.
3:41 the "crowbar made out of Crows" joke. Pinnacle of comedy
The "Ha Ha Ha" room is just a giant middle finger from the game developers.
I know what u mean. Assholes to the very end lol
*Man, is been a while since the last AVGN Episode.*
I know is been a month, whatever!
BowserLover Gaming lel
BowserLover Gaming why it takes thaaaaaaaaat long?
seriously -_- apart from cg parts it looks pretty normal
BowserLover Gaming I feel the same. This series has a charm to it.
probably because James has 2 kids and he has to take care of them sometimes.
Alpaslan Topcu the guy does have two kids to take care of, including one less than a year old. he can’t exactly prioritise the video over them
always a great day when there's a new nerd! and he went back to the NES!
Gran Torino: The Film: the Game
Win
All you do is sit there and say “ Get off my lawn”. 🤔
That exists?
What are you spooks up to?
Level 1, make sandbag walls 5 feet high.
I don't know why but that remark about Dirty Harry turning into John Travolta is the funniest damn thing to me
I’m happy when a new AVGN video comes out
Same...
Same he like never makes these anymore
Since he did the movie and had a family he stop avgn a lot
Me to I'm very happy and pretty glad when a new AVGN video comes out as well Jason Becker
I think that's horrible James Rolfe has stopped doing avgn a lot since he made that fantastic AVGN movie and he had his fantastic family Captiankirk games
The justifier reminds me of the good ole days when Konami made things worth buying.
Invest in Konami's Retro Hardware and Software.
KWKBOX KOJIMASAGENIUSDONTEVENTRY2SAYSHITABOUTHIM
THEGUYISAHACK
At least Konami's letting Nintendo use Snake in Smash Bros. Ultimate....that's something...right?
KWKBOX Metal Gear Survive was great. Don't @ me.
This intro represents how far we’ve come from 2004
In 15 years, I want the Nerd to review Road To Hell Retribution
*Ride to hell retribution
@@thefriendlymadman229 Dance Dance Revolution*
And hello neighbor
Cuz it sucks
TheGmodMagician Hello Neighbor dosent suck
@@NoahDaArk he should review sny fnaf game
Whatever happened to the Nintoaster?
2zporygon It's toast.
2zporygon it actual name is a Nintoaster II
it broke i heard this on someones matts stream of the delux version of the angry video game nerd game
Yo momma
He fixes it. Had bread crumbs in it.
"Bullets bounce right off him!"
Because he's a bouncer
The intro is absolutely awesome.
You should review the Catwoman game, based on the Halle Berry movie.
lol best comment
GreenDog
That must be a train wreck
Or Batman Dark Tomorrow
I agree with you Tyrant, Catwoman must be reviewed before this year ends!
I need to see the Nerd play Takeshi’s Challenge!
Oh now thats a challenge.
Punch > Pay Alimony
I'm sure he tried but he probably threw the console in acid halfway through
like Aphrodite rising from the sea foam of Uranus's severed ball sack...
Oh my goodness yes!
This game looks like it could have been really good with some improvements in controls and level design. The foundation is definitely there.
This game is above average for a nintendo game. Hes a good video game youtuber but i believe hes a below average gamer. He gets stuck on pretty easy shit alot of the time. Like the platform jump to the box is easy and the jump in the mountain he showed is childs play
True, but a lot of it is for comedy and he may just make a bigger deal out of it just to add to the humor.
That could be said about a lot of them.
Another thing to polish this game:
Remove the “Ha ha ha” room.
"Is there any city with this much crime?"
Yes actually, it's called Detroit, Michigan.
AdmiralManta or the Bronx, NY.
Chicago has the most in the US
deezy81 It's where my grandfather grew up.
Try going to Camden, NJ
Detroit, 2048, Android takes over the world
Yes! A metal intro :D
Exsactly what I was thinking
EpicZEVEN Metal has been kicking ass this year and in the years prior lmao
1.5x it becomes thrash metal
now we need a djent intro!!!!!!!
Now I just need the tabs
3:50
Who does he think he is? Sonic the Hedgehog? Ooh, good material for "Hedgehog for Hire"!
"Is there any city with this much crime?"
Detroit, maybe?
robot laws
Chicago
I'd love to go there someday
If you're gonna have diarrhea, you might as well splatter the toilet seat while you're at it - AVGN 2018
Feels like a classic episode ^_^
I agree!
Marky Dav yeah
I love the original intro music but when James does the alternates (Metal, punk, techno, etc) it just makes the episode even more epic. Thanks for all the work you do AVGN!!
I can’t believe this episode is 6 years old already. I remember when it came out!
I love how James Rolfe stays as fresh in 2018 as he did in 2008. Literally nothing about this video feels stale. Same Nerd, Same Shit, Same Fun!
That for the most part is false, in my opinion. This is one of the worst AVGN videos I have seen
Alright. I mean, I think it's decent. Personally I'd say the worst nerd episode is Berenstain Bears.
There was a time (I think 2011?) where most of his videos were more about his opinion of games and spending 90% of the episodes doing unrelated stuff instead of picking out actual flaws with the chosen game and making goofs about said flaws.
Thankfully he eventually returned to making quality videos.
I think Berenstain Bears was an amazing episode.
4:20 Hey look! Its Michael Jackson from Smooth Criminal
Exactly what I thought! Jajajaj!
@@kintarogold1483 bruh
How's it going, dude? Stayin' away from the cocaine?
BWOOOOOAAAAOOO
Get out of here, Frank. Ya buzzkill.
Just gonna drink some OJ
Legendary comment
It's alright It's alright It's alright
This episode was phenomenal. I may even go so far to say it...
...rocked me like a hurricane.
Yeah that's right.
This game is so bad someone should Send Me An Angel.
Chill down and feel the Rhythm of love that James keeps on giving us.
I would be so mad if the game gave me a dead end room with Ha Ha Ha on the wall....
The game had some interesting concepts. A pseudo-open-world.
Released around the same time as River City Ransom.
Glad you didnt finish level 1. The "Toymaker" boss at the end of that sewer segment would have made your blood boil.
This might just be the best rendition of the theme song. That bass guitar goes pretty hard 🤘🏻
This guys deserves more subscribers
Coltonandgen he deserves way more though, he's been working on AVGN since 2004 and he's been bringing us quality content since day 1, I kinda wish cinemassacre would be more mainstream.
How bout if all his current subs donated a quarter a year. He'd be set for life.
he'll reach 10 to 20 mil soon just keep subscribing to james
Soundwave 84
I agree, people like Logan Paul and whatnot have like 17 million....AVGN definitely deserves more than 2 million subscribers.
I've been saying that since I was 10 in 2014
Omg ive been waiting for this episode for so long and it was so worth it!!
Me Too I Hope There is A New AVGN Halloween Episode This October.
3:35 "Actually the crowbar snaps in two."
Jontron Claws of Heugh reference?
One of the best channels on UA-cam man. Such good production and solid content. I’m on a binge right now.
AVGN stopped drinking...
It didn't help numb the pain he gets from playing shitty games.
I'm glad he stopped pretending to drink in his videos. He was drinking water out of those Rolling Rock bottles, it was so cheesy.
if James wants the character to change, let him change.
He is dad now so
You shoot it and it bleeds blood instead of chunky diarrhea? That's a real missed opportunity.
Don't give him ideas.
The day you stop making avgn. Is the day I leave yt.
Agreed
Your videos scare me .....
people become so attached.....they're the fans who James wants to avoid
@@troywright359 that makes no sence. If im attached, then Im a big fan and James likes his fans? Lol
@@troywright359 there are creepy, stalker kind fans that no one wants and then theres just dedicated fans.. Tik Tok is definitely not on the creepy side
I believe level 3 is also a reference to ”Escape from Alcatraz”, so it’s, like, a double-reference.
I don't know. I mean, if Scorpion from Mortal Kombat would throw at me a CD with Scorpions Greatest Hits, I'd be a happy man.
Hooray for the AVGN! Your series is amazing and I’m at season 7 right now after 7 days of binge watching the series, keep up the good work!
Kalle Nordvall I watched the video without looking at the date and only now realized this was just 1 day ago. He’s really good at keeping his videos consistent and enjoyable
Sounds like it’s time for you to experience Board James
I'm a simple guy. I see new AVGN episode, i press like.
AVGN: "Is there any city with *this* much crime!? The whole city is trying to murder a policeman in broad daylight."
Portland, Chicago, Seattle, Minneapolis, Oakland:
Gotham
@Brendyn Johnson just Gotham in general
That ending 😂
I'm surprised this isn't an LJN game.
It was Mindscape, the publisher who made “Paperboy” and other bad games.
4:19 I didn't know Micheal Jackson was in this game.
Well he does look like one smooth criminal.
AVGN:Is their any city with this much crime
Me: Arkham City
Detroit, Chicago and Gary
You should do the Tiny Toons games for your next episode.
Harri927 they are far too good :)
Wait, Tiny Toons on NES? That's actually a really good late-release NES game. Only big problem is that it's REALLY easy. Lucked into a copy myself for only $3.
If I had any special request for an episode it would be to review Shadowgate. I know people consider that one a classic of the point-n-click genre, but to me it feels like trial and error bullshit for most of the game.
Unless Bugs Bunny is in the room, than no, he is not going to
I already watched this on amazon, but I watched it again on youtube. Still enjoyed. Keep it up Nerd!
This was the perfec tthing to brighten up my day. Thank you AVGN! (:
Welp...it made your day! :DDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Agreed
I agree with you FrostDrive
Perfecc
7:00 Oh, that's low. Who ever thought of including a 'Ha Ha Ha Room' that softlocks the game?
This game reminds me of classic SpoonyOne before he became a raving lunatic on Twitter.
SnicketySlice dare i ask?
Yeah, got that vibe too.
I'm dirty dan
That's where I saw this before, was driving me crazy, thanks.
SnicketySlice Njju
lol Clint looks like wolverine on that pic :D LOL
Rami Al-Omari Clint could played wolvie easy 40 years ago. He's a dead ringer for Logan
That was just from Sudden Impact, he looked fine in thr movie, so it's just the photographer that made that mistake
Clint was the inspiration of Logan's look.
When ever Im having a hard day I find myself watching your videos to help cheer me up. Thank you James
Love the attention to detail, ended up firing six shots during the scetch at the end, just like ya expect out of Dirty Harry iconic six shooter.
Amazing intro remix by Nestalgica!
