Is this game a parody? Was the creator being "clever" by making a ridiculously long load time, poor controls, terrible hit detection, awkward animations, and a shitty extra lives system where it doesn't matter if you have lives anyways cause you start all the way over. Are you being "funny"?

This game is..is...kick FUCKING ass!!!

lol its a funny game

I Love This Game Its Funny And I Like The Game Over Screen And Its Not Bad At All

Yeah thanks for sending popup windows and error messages at me when I click the download link. You should really move the file to somewhere that doesn't do that.

It's pretty obvious, guys. Psychara himself pointed it out. I was going to, but I see another individual already beat me there. Thank you for alerting them early Psychara, though i bet one left AVGN entirely after playing it.

lol AVGN have to do a review on it

isn't it obvious? james is making you guys mad as hell playing a shitty game! you're becoming angry video game nerds!

WHAT ARE THE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS! I've read comments from both Mac and Windows owners who, like me, can't get the damb game running. My computer is brand new and I did exactly what Mike Matel said--(all 16 measly words). All I get is a message saying that no application I have can open it. What will then? It doesn't say. Somebody tell the AGVN he's got a turd in the punch bowl.

I don t have any of those problems but i have to say that i am on world 4 and on the boss you can t hit him without getting yourself hit :@

The only problem I have is the load time, but I'm able to do anything else while it's loading and it still works for me. I used to have a problem with the hit detection, but after a while I figured out that you have to be standing a little bit farther away from the enemies than your intuition would tell you. If you stand too close, i.e., close enough where the hand makes contact to the enemy, you'll get hurt. Stand a little farther back and you'll be fine.

Okay, here's the third problem, when I hit escape to quit the game my secondary harddrive almost fucked up because of a blue screen of death and cold self-reset...

5 minutes of loading? What were you thinking!? I can see the cheesy title was made in flash, I recognize those lines as I'm in flash since 2001. There's no game that loads for 5 minues, maybe DooM3 on an Atari 2600! I hope the worth waiting because if not I'm gonna be really pissed off. Like just what was the designer of this game thinking, the game will be that good the players will have the patience to wait up to 5 minutes or even more? No harddrive activity for such a long time...

Now it started.

Okay, I just tried to tell it in the Nerd style, but overall it's not a bad game. The only 2 problems that the game loads a friggin too much, the other is I don't like the bid-headed Nerd.

To the people whose game copy won't work:

You have to wait a while and you cannot do ANYTHING while it is loading. Then again, you wouldn't want to. This game is friggin' horrible.

The control is awful. You can't hit without getting hit in return.

The life system is stupid. You start at the beginning of a stage if you die in it and if you lose all your lives you just start the level over. There's no point to both lives and the pens that give you lives if you collect a bunch.

This game is abysmal. It's the kind of game James would pan. And, judging by Gavin Maclean's other games, he is just a plain terrible game designer overall. Each game of his I played blew.

I just wish there would be a sequel to the Angry Video Game. That thing was fun.

This game doesnt work! when i downloaded it and i left it to see what happened came back over 10 minutes later nothing still on the first loading screen

Why doesn't this game work for me I downloaded it twice and it still doesnt work. The picture of thw game pops up loads for like 3 minits then it says its not responding and I have to close the program. Is it doing this because my computer is Windows 7?

aw, I can't find a mac friendly version.
