Video: The Angry Video Game Nerd: Superman

When I saw that the adorable Angry Video Game Nerd was doing Superman, I got all excited. I was hoping to see the utter nightmare that is Superman 64 melt his brain and send him into apoplectic fits of rage. But no, unfortunately, that's a story for another day. Instead, he takes on Superman for the Atari 2600 and Superman on the NES. As expected, the 2600 game is only the vaguest representation of human figures, but that's to be expected. What I found fascinating was the quasi-anime style of the NES game. That one I've never played, so I thought it was hilarious to see a big-headed baby version of Superman talking to an anime Statue of Liberty. And why does Superman have to ride the subway? Huh? As usual, the Angry Video Game Nerd is absolutely hilarious, but the language is not safe for work or sensitive ears. And man, sometimes I worry about that boy's sanity... how much longer before he snaps?

Adorable? Really wootini?

I still don't really find him funny at all. I like nostalgia being looked back at and laughed at and made fun of for various reasons as much as everyone else. I guess I just enjoy it when it's done with a bit or intelligence and wit.

Saying fuck and shit every 10 seconds does not equal those things.

Superman for the NES didn't look that bad, did it? It's a NES game that mixes action with RPG elements like talking to people or chosing between a variety of attacks like it was the rage at the time. And the talking Super Deformed version of the Statue of Liberty was fun.

Heh, I actually played the hell out of both games, back in the day. I enjoyed the NES one as far as I can remember.
