Though he puts that issue aside and starts playing the game on his NES. While the terrorists in the game are able to take 3/4's of John McClain's health away, the Nerd's biggest complaint for the game is the dark areas that only light up when you enter the area which makes it inconvenient when there's a terrorist lurking in that area and you don't know it unless you go into that area. ...

S2 · E14Bugs Bunny Birthday Blowout 2007-08-07 · 9 min
The review starts off in the same fashion as a Looney Tunes short film. The Nerd reviews Bugs Bunny's Birthday Blowout which is nothing more than a poor man's Super Mario Bros. style slide scroller game. While the game is generous of providing extra lives, it however suffers from being unorganized by having breakable blocks placed over bottom-less pits and enemies that can hurt you even if you hurt them. Upon reviewing the game the Nerd is visited by Bugs Bunny himself, which the Nerd gives out his hatred by beaten the daylights out of the poor rabbit while trying to ...
S2 · E15Atari Porn 2007-08-22 · 10 min

And just for fun, the Nerd reviews other Atari adult games only to find that each one either made no sense in how the game play is mastered or how the ideas for the games looked like they were thought up by sick minded game developers.
S2 · E16Nintendo Power Memories 2007-09-04 · 15 min
The Nerd does a tribute to the magazine Nintendo Power by showing selected ads that were made exclusive to the magazine, the posters, the walk-through content, and the fan letters that are answered by the staff.

Before the Internet became more common to use the only way to know how to beat a game is by magazine subscription.

S2 · E17Fester's Quest 2007-09-18 · 9 min
Dressed as every member of the Addams Family, the Nerd reviews Fester's Quest, an overly long and overly difficult game that he deems is not worth the effort. He destroys it with Gomez's train and moves on to the movie licensed game on Sega. Another creepy and kooky game.

The Nerd returns home with his newly bought 2600 games and starts to play the Leatherface game first.

Only to discover that most of them are less connected than the other. Which in the end he concludes that the franchise doesn't need to have a well explained time-line when each game is worth playing without knowing what occurred in any of the other games.
S2 · E24Rambo 2008-01-22 · 13 min
With the upcoming release of the fourth Rambo movie, the Nerd reviews Rambo for the NES. The game suffers from four problems which are: confusing navigation on the landscapes, pointless chat options, unnecessary use of animals as enemies, and the idea of the screen blinking red when low on health. The Nerd also reviews some other Rambo games but couldn't find a single one that actually is fun to play. He feels the games should of taken advice from Contra on how to make a commando theme game more fun.

S3 · E2The Wizard of Oz 2008-03-04 · 11 min
The Nerd plays the Super Nintendo adaption of the 1939 Wizard of Oz movie. Something that can't be made into a good game. Mainly due to the addition of weird enemies and locations that don't look like something you'd find in either the movie or the original books. The Nerd's main complaint is the large number of glitches the game has where various platforms make the characters in the game fall through. While playing the game, the Nerd is visited by the Cowardly Lion who won't shut up through out the review.
S3 · E3Double Vision: Part 1 2008-03-25 · 10 min
The Nerd does a review on the two competing consoles to the Atari 2600 Intellivision and Colecovision. He starts his review on Intellivision first and also does a review on most of its games. His main complaint is the controller for the Intellivision makes playing the games harder. Despite how most of Intellivision's games are knock offs of already popular Atari games. He's also amused by the fuzzy sound quality of the voice synthesizer that is only compatible to certain Intellivision games.
S3 · E4Double Vision: Part 2 2008-04-08 · 8 min
The Nerd does a follow up to the previous review by showing us the features of the Colecovision. The controllers aren't any different from the Intellivision, while most of the games are as bad they look. His main complaint is one of the add-ons to the console is a device that allows you to play Atari 2600 games on the Colecovision. The Nerd found it hard to believe the competitor of Atari was allowed to sell such a device. Cause in today's gaming market it wouldn't be allowed when it can create multiple lawsuits.
S3 · E5The Wizard and Super Mario Bros 3 2008-04-22 · 10 min
The Nerd decides to review a good game for once which is Super Mario Bros. 3. Before he reviews it, he talks about the movie The Wizard which is how American gamers first learn about the game as it was a product placement along with the NES Power Glove. While the Nerd doesn't find the story for The Wizard to be great, he did admit that it holds a place in the gaming community. After putting his review on the Wizard aside he starts to play Super Mario Bros. 3, while it has a lot of hard parts it is really fun to play, however the Nerd couldn't help but notice the game ...

S3 · E7The Indiana Jones Trilogy 2008-05-21 · 17 min
In honor of the release of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, the AVGN reviews the games based on the original trilogy.
