Ghostbusters (NES) - Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN)

Ойындар

f there's something bad, and you don't like it, then you need the Nerd. He's soon tackling something worse than ghosts, when he reviews Ghostbusters for the NES. This is Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 21.
Ghostbusters was one the one most popular and innovative movies of the eighties and a huge part of several generations childhoods. It starred Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Sigourney Weaver, Harold Ramis Ernie Hudson and Rick Moranis. The movie was a leap ahead in special effects in its day, and a legitimate phenomenon.
It was only a natural evolution that this franchise would translate to other mediums and with the video game boom of the eighties of course there had to be games made. What a great idea, we thought.
The game was published by Activision and released in 1986, a full 2 years after the movie. A game that had plenty of time to learn from the mistakes of the previous versions on Atari and Commodore 64, but instead chose to just port the same horrible game.
What's scarier than ghosts, ghouls and dodging drunk drivers? Stairs In this part one of a three part series, the Nerd reviews the 8-bit incarnation on Nintendo of the original Ghostbusters. We learn how NOT to make a movie adaptation and the heartbreak and anger from childhood that still resides in the Nerds heart. Also ghost vacuums.

    I just realised... the game is an endless cycle of chasing after things you can barely afford, driving around aimlessly, performing the same tasks over and over again while not being prepared for what really matters and being in constant need of gasoline. All while the radio is blasting the same song for all eternity. It is a perfect metaphor for adulthood.

    I used to wonder if he actually called a vacuum store, but now I think that's just Kyle on the other end. EDIT: Well, it may be two years late, but I finally figured it out; it's actually both. James called an actual store to ask about ghost vacuums, then had Kyle dub over the store employee's voice.

    Why "women"? The word " heroes* can be used for both man and women so the last line should be unchanged

    +CodeNameZ It was a reference to the fact that the new Ghostbusters movie has females in the lead roles for the sake of having females in the lead roles...

    Leopold Litchenstein Again the word "hero" have mean both male or female, I know he was talking about the Ghostbusters 2016 trailer but I am saying he could just write "heroes" and everything would be fine

    You can tell some programmer was so happy to finally finishing working on this shitty game, that he did not even bother to read the last string he programmed in for the ending screen. In fact, no one at the company bothered to check, they all were mentally exhausted.

    Why is the main building called Zuul? "Gozer the Traveller, he will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldronaii, the Traveller came as a large and moving Torb! Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the Meketrex Supplicants they chose a new form for him... that of a Giant Sloar! Many Shubs and Zulls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Sloar that day I can tell you!" Yeah, I don't know. It's just fun to drop that quote whenever possible. XD
