Link to original post: [drupal=3856]My thoughts on AVGN[/drupal]



While I do not normally enjoy or like crude and humor exclusively based on foul language, I do find AVGN comical at times and I have to say aside from some points here and there, I have to say that over all his show is enjoyable to watch even if it is contradictorily to what I normally enjoy. One aspect of his show that I find most inserting is the fact he focuses on for the most part exclusively bad retro games (though a few times he he has played some good retro games such as Super Mario 3, Ninja Gaiden (IMO), ect.). Many of the games where rather obscure before he reviewed them (Dr. Jekyll and Mr.Hyde, Bugs bunny birthday blow out, ect.) as well as various systems that as a semi-modern gamer (Long story) did not know much about such as the Atari jaguar, The Odyssey, and the Sega 32x add on. I do find it rather interesting learning about the systems of the old days. Even playing some of the games of old (The good ones) I find them to be fun and enjoyable even if they are though as nails inside a metallic bunker. So even if I do not enjoy the humor of the show all the time I enjoy the video gaming history lesson, and occasionally his humor as well. So that is just my thoughts on the subject, and I recommend his videos to the gamers who have not seen the videos, unless your are easily offended by foul language in that case stay away.

AVGN da bess. :awesome:
I really do enjoy the history lessons and his opinions about the games that he play. His humor is what draws me in to keep watching. The only thing is that he usually reviews bad games with a couple of exceptions like Zelda and the Castlevania series.

Oh, I did not know that is the name of a bird. Ok, will edit and change, also for future reference can you please if possible avoid quoting a complete opening it looks kind of messy and messes up the blog.

I love watching AVGN. Too bad his latest episode sucked in my opinion.

His best reviews IMO are: Rambo, Die Hard, Superman 64 and Action 52.
