My only problem with the DVDs is that they strip out all the licensed music/videos. Which isn't a problem as much nowadays, but for something like the Wizard/Mario 3 episode, it kind of sucks.

Winter Games

I loved the game on my CPC.

 

[HUELEN10]

AAAA
:lol

That was awesome.

 

[ntropy]

holy shit @6:03 :lol

Mario 2 and Mega Man...something in the intro? Now he's trolling on purpose :lol

 

[maniac-kun]

awesome episode :lol

 

[drizzle]

I wonder if he buys/receives from his viewers/has doubles of every game cartridge he destroys on tape. Otherwise, wouldn't that just be destroying his collection? Sure, Winter Games is just 1.00 USD on ebay, and I know he sells some of the stuff he used in his videos, but still....

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Awesome, as usual. His expressions during the ice skating... :lol

 

[Red Scarlet]

All the scenes are from ice/winter-themed levels from games.

 

[Davey Cakes]

Wow. The hatred was really flowing through James in this episode. His frustration with Winter Games seemed more real here than it has in the past with other games, even Red Hood. It was hilarious to see him get so angry and then just do everything to the cartridge that the label tells him not to.

I laughed harder at this ending than I have in a while. Good job, James. Your sacrifice of this shitty piece of plastic will be remembered for many Winters to come.

"I'm surprised it's not called 'Cat Tit Bingo'".

Episode delivers.

"Burn motherfucker, BURN!"

 

[red shoe paul]

The ice skating controls had me giggling. :lol

:lol

All i know is this reminds me of Amirox everytime he does something to a game he doesn't like lol...

 

[Darkmakaimura]

I liked this game but I owned it for the C64, along with Summer Games and World Games. The ice skating wasn't that bad when you use an Atari 2600 controller.

 

[Iron_Scimitar]

Fred Fuchs :lol

 

[NameGenerated]

Am I the only one that knew freestyle skiing was sometimes called hot-dogging? It pretty much ruined the joke for me, although I did laugh at cat tit bingo.

 

[Iron_Scimitar]

Love the ice stage music from DKC <3

 

[ReiGun]

The ice skater falling looked so sad. :lol

Episode delivers.

Came to post this :lol

 

[ZZMitch]

Cat Tit Bingo... I lol'd

 

[Flakster99]

Oh shit, :lol
What an utterly fantastic episode this week. :lol

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

I remember playing this at a friends house many years ago. Even as a young boy I thought the speed skating controls were ridiculous.

 

[aaaaaa]

At least the NES version didn't have that cross-country skiing event -- what an impossible waste of time that was.

 

[AtomicShroom]

:lol :lol :lol :lol

Awesome episode!

Welcome back, Nerd!

It was superb. You change the direction on the joy (or dpad) as skater stretches his leg. It's not some stupit button mashing.

It played like shit.

 

[Rayven]

:lol fred fuchs

to be fair, i played the shit out of this game as a kid and hot dog aerials was the only event i was able to control. The rest were unplayable.

 

[Project Midway]

Commodore 64 version was great! Better graphics and controls were better with a joystick.

[SlipperySlope]

good episode. Love how he does what the game tells him not to do.

 

[JRW]

lol what a horrible port, it runs choppy on NES even when compared to the C64..and the audio is crappy..

Case in point:

NES version (Bobsled): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6ZTa-iUE_o#t=2m27s

C64 version (Bobsled): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1XkE9aucqk

We used to play Winter Games on C64 back in the day and it was VERY playable (and popular). NES got a crappy port.

 

[Steeven]

Love his face when he listens to the fucking music :lol

I really hate it when people bump this thread when there's no new content just to write shit like that.

 

[POWERSPHERE]

where can you watch this that ISN'T game trailers?

Yeah, it was awesome on the C64! Summer Games, too!

 

[Trakdown]

Next one is one I've been waiting for:

 

[Red Scarlet]

youtube, I think.

Next one is one I've been waiting for:

I watched spoony's review, I don't really remember much at all about the game. I beat it when I was little but never played it since then. I'm sure ANN will get rightly pissed off at it.

 

[Rufus]

Stop whining and subscribe to his RSS feed to keep you updated on his stuff instead of relying on a forum thread...

 

[Rufus]

youtube, I think.

With quite a delay. The winter games one isn't uploaded there yet, for example. (There's only a trailer.) I guess it's part of the deal with Gametrailers.

 

[mjc]

Youtube has a pretty good archive of his videos, I think he uploads them himself actually.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

man he's sporting a sweet atari jacket

Ah, I know I rewatched some of the older ones (like..BttF old) there, but never looked up the newer ones on youtube.

What about Screw Attack? Or is that gametrailers too?

 

[Lost Fragment]

IIRC, the ones on YouTube are at least a year old per his deal with Gametrailers.

 

[flamesofchaos]

I believe GameTrailers has a one or two year exclusive deal for his AVGN videos and then he can repost them on cinemasacre and/or youtube.

 

[Zombie James]

I wish his stuff was on iTunes at least. Browsing through Gametrailers on my iPod is painful.

 

[theinfinityissue]

I usually just haunt his website, cinemassacre.com, whenever I smell an update in the air. If you like the AVGN stuff, you'll find a lot to like there as well, like Board James. Whenever a new AVGN comes up, it's almost immediately on his front page with a direct link, no GT browsing involved.

 

[POWERSPHERE]

Yeah, thought i'd give it a shot, but not funny. Isn't he ment to be angry? He's mostly just mildly displeased whilst not even attempting to play the game. Hmm.

 

[darkwings]

why did he say it was ski jump when it obviously was freestyle?

 

[Papercuts]

Yeah, thought i'd give it a shot, but not funny. Isn't he ment to be angry? He's mostly just mildly displeased whilst not even attempting to play the game. Hmm.

Err, which one(s) did you watch?
