Re: Review: Angry Video Game Nerd 1 & 2 Deluxe - A Double-Dose Of Accomplished Platforming Action

@Jakiboy Whilst the Nerd isn't really my cup of tea, my SO enjoys AVGN, and I enjoy his more straight forward playthroughs with Mike Matei.

Thing is with the Nerd, he nailed the character first try, found a winning formula, and hasn't deviated much. He knows what people signed up to see, and he's loyal to that, even if it is stupidly over the top faux anger at bad video games. He has fun, the show is fun, and he has kept committed to it.

I think that's why he's still going after 12 years, not going to lie. He's still enthusiastic, he still plays a role the audience loves, he's got momentum to keep the show going for a long time.

Funny thing is, I'm the one who's going to get this on the Switch. I love Nintendo Hard and Kaizo levels games, but my SO doesn't lol

@Malcrash There was always the Mortal Kombat movie (the original, the sequel was trash), and I thought it was great. Just great scenery, and good music. Plot was a little on the nose (it IS Mortal Kombat), but I thought it was an alright experience overall.

Also the Sonic OVA from way back, which nailed the feeling of the games.

I love living in California (small town USA here), but it's California. I'm sure we're convinced breathing the air will give you cancer.

It's likely due to lead solder, or some other nonsense, that really shouldn't be an issue. Just my state being silly.

(What's weird is that we're perfectly willing to overlook the number 1 cancer pollutant in the state so LA can have their cheap water. Just saying.)
