The Angry Video Game Nerd

When the Nerd plays through some Mega Man X games which are more graphics and text than game play, he considers calling it quits (again). But he somehow gets transported back in time to 2007, 2006 and 2004 where he interacts with his past selves and review newer Mega Man games.

The Nerd delivers an NES classic, the infamous Paperboy. The game about delivering newspapers and having to avoid getting hit by every single inane object on the streets. It may sound easy, but the AVGN sets out to prove just how difficult and unrealistic the whole experience can be.

Television-to-video game adaptations more often than not are monumental disasters, and nobody knows this better than the Nerd, who decides to play the Beavis and Butt-head game for Sega Genesis. Did they over-complicate things? You bet your butt.

When attempting to review video games based on a beloved franchise from his childhood, the Nerd stumbles upon evidence of a parallel universe and realizes that everything he knew to be true might be wrong.

The Nerd and his clumsy pal Keith wreck the halls with some interactive Sega gear. These VR wannabes rank up with the Power Glove, Roll'n Rocker and all that other useless, overpriced shit we wanted as kids to look cool. Time for our heroes to try them out and see how poorly they worked. Hilarity and collateral damage will ensue.
