btw you are really the shizzle. AVGN is awesome. My other favorite was the dragon from my past video. Nostalgia is a good thing i think. Just wanted to show as a fan my gratitude for the videos. So thank you for entertaining me. Go PA. yay!
all i can say is i think james fans should support him in his movie endeavor nostalgia critic made his so bout time james made his yea there wont be and avgn for a while but if we get a future length movie out of this. then all the power to em
I used to have those Jurassic Park games on the genesis. They were actually a couple of my favorite games (I was really into Jurassic Park when I was a kid). I actually got pretty good at those games, and got very far in them. Don’t remember if I ended up beating them though, they’re tough as hell.
Great episode James…I take off my hate to the AVGN feature film project. Keep up the excellent work and I hope to see you on the big screen someday soon
When you mentioned you were making a movie, I had a feeling you were saving E.T. for it. Glad to see it is in the works. I have really enjoyed all of the different short films you make so I am excited to see a feature-length film.
Ahh, you finally got around to Jaws. You know, the earliest memory I have of that game was I was in some department store in the US(I’m Canadian) and I recall being in a section that had the game up for display and for play. I think I recall that day also as the day I bought Legacy of the Wizard, and I also recall my brother teasing me about something that I would eventually find out to be Wrecking Crew. Man, I’ve got all sorts of NES related memories. It’s not like today where you can just walk into a store and get a game. No, back then it was an event that was etched into your mind for ever.
How sad is it that Jaws is one of LJN’s better titles? lol
BTW how hilarious would it be if “Super Schindler’s list 3D existed?”
I was laughing so hard at the Jurassic Park 3DO minigames. They must have been high on crack. ET Go Come sounds like a low budget porno haha
That was great! xDDD
I can’t wait for the movie now dude.
If it comes out in theaters, I am DEFINITELY seeing it! No force will ever stop me, god damn it! O:<
Wow, I guess we know what the Nerd has planned for the movie. I do think this is the perfect time for the break; even the Nerd made a comment in this vid about the poop scthick getting old (and then following up with a funnier joke). AVGN is already a movie-worthy character. Let’s save the best shitty games for the film and see what he can do with them.
Lol, I’m watching it right now but I thought you were gonna take a break with AVGN. I’m glad though since it’s a big surprise and now you’re tackling some of my most hated games.
Great video, James! And I just have to say, BEST DAMN CLIFFHANGER IN INTERNET HISTORY!!! Can’t wait for a chance to see the movie. The break in Nerd videos sucks, sure, but it’s going to be well worth the wait.! Besides, there’s more Board James and You Know What’s Bullshit coming this year, and I’m really excited about that. I always thought Board James should be a bigger part of what you do.
In any case, good luck with the movie! I would gladly do whatever I could do get that bitch a theatrical release!!!
I don’t know if there’s something wrong with my flash player or something, but I saw “(random blurry colors) The Movie.” I’m assuming from the announcement and peoples comments that it was AVGN The Movie.
Ever since I saw the video announcing the AVGN movie I knew that the review in it was going to be ET. There’s no other game worthy of an AVGN movie. I am ridiculously excited for this now.
Good work James, nice video. I think its great that you put some detail into the character of the Nerd, and ET is almost like a weak point to AVGN; like Superman and his Kryptonite, the Nerd can’t stand to play one of the most hated games of the 20th century, and honestly, one of the attributing reasons of the video game crash of ’83.
I wish you good luck in your feature film effort. Hope everything goes according to plan and without a hitch during development.
it was kind of predictable something was going on with et when he took the game box. then i expeted he would talk about et on a continued video, or maybe delay i. anyways, the drama was really funny, and continuing it in the movie gets me really really excited. i hope it might be done by 2013 or less. Is this the last nerd episode untill the movie?
Great video James, you reviewed a few games I have been waiting on for awhile: Jaws and the Jurassic Park games, those were ones I played as a kid. Best of luck with the movie. You should set up a paypal account or something similar that people fans can donate to.
Son…of…a…bitch…lol! I knew you were gonna do that. Good review James. Very classic AVGN. Reminded me of videos like the Atari 5200 and Simpsons reviews. Can’t wait to see the movie come to fruition. Take it easy and hope to see the Nerd back in full swing very soon. : )
I like the first Jaws film (I have the 30th anniversary DVD), the 2nd film is a bit of a rehash, and the 3rd and 4th films are crap …just like all the Jaws games.
I’m one of those people who likes “Hook.”
Super Schindler’s List 3-D. Man, that was hilarious and unexpected.
Man, there were alot of games based on the first Jurassic Park film, but that was to be expected, because it was the biggest film of 1993. I also find the 3DO game weird as Hell.
I was wondering if it will be E.T. on Atari that you’ll review on your movie. Good luck, and God speed.
Glad you haven’t reviewed E.T. the Extra Terresticle. Everyone else has anyway. Plus, given the history of its production, who could expect it to be a good game, right?
Well looks like the next episode after your little “break” will be about E.T. Still James, i say that you need to make some episodes where you review some PS1 games since i think you’ve only reviewed like 1 or 2 games in that console i believe.
Well i hope that everything goes well in the AVGN movie and the other movie your playing a role in.
ha I was like noooooo when you had the cliffhanger at the end. I hope your movie is a huge success and I hope that it is in a theater near me. I would go to see it opening night. I cannot wait for it. I would think that it would get done reasonably fast by movie standards because you already have the script completed but what do I know about making movies. Keep doing what you love and do not work too hard.
As soon as AVGN said there was going to be a review in the movie, I KNEW it was going to be E.T. It’s finally coming. And great review James. Just the kind of review I’ve wanting from you.
I cant beleave u have reviewed my most hated games in my childhood thanks James for reviewing The Jurassic Park Games i hated those games so much the films where amazing and wonderful and the games remind me of what shit can do to great games. by the way what happen to your facial hair? oh well great review James can’t wait for E.T. I Hated The Jurassic Park Games!
Great, great review. I especially enjoyed this one, as I have played the Genesis Jurassic Park games, and watched someone play through Jaws. My friend beat Jaws in a few hours, maybe less, if I recall. Not exactly a horrible game, but worth the price of an NES cartridge back in the day? Hell no. Rental, maybe.
Jurassic Park and Rampage Edition for Genesis were both great fun. They do have some issues and BS, but are good games, for the most part. I beat both all the way through with both characters. I didn’t realize the games for the other systems were something totally different! Thanks for the education!
Ooohhooohoo so we finally see what the AVGN movie will be about. I am looking forward to that. I wish you all the best of luck on this movie venture, and we’ll be pulling for you, man.
I’ve been watching you since the Angry Nintendo Nerd days on Youtube, years ago… and I’ve also loved your other videos you’ve done… this will be the pinnacle! Oh man, it will be awesome! Can’t wait, man!
Haha! I knew it.
Since James made the video update on “future AVGN plans” I knew E.T. was part of it because what better game for the nerd to review than the one that almost destroys an entire industry.
James good luck with it, if you have to take a break I, personally, wouldn’t mind. I know you work really hard and I really want to see that movie, I’ll fucking buy it
I wish you all the luck.
By the way, I don’t know if you’ll read this (I wish you would) but I’m a fan of all your work, my favorite being “The deader the better” I just go crazy watching all that blood.
I had all the SEGA genesis Jurassic Park games and i loved them. I spent many hours replaying them and I thought Rampage was AWESOME!!!! i think you may have been a little harsh.
You were jerkin my meat and balls until I was about to shoot man glaze all over the place and then YOU STOPPED RIGHT AT THE EXACT MOMENT OF MANGASM!
Fuck, we can’t wait another month or 10 , for the AVGN movie…you MUST put this beast to rest, destroy the evil shit log that is ET for the 2600, goddddammnnntttt AVGN!!!!! Damn YOU!
Such an excellent episode before the hiatus. Favorite part was the BTTF2 reference, and I must’ve missed the reference to American Movie (guess I’ll have to re-watch sometime).
Looking forward to AVGN: The Movie, and am hoping it gets some sort of theatrical or festival release whenever it’s completed.
Hey, James. You’ve missed Jurassic Park 2: The lost world on Sega. It is got nothing to do with the movie but, it’s one of the best games in sega library and it is worth checking out. Best jurassic park game on old consoles.
Hey James, are you using a different microphone in this video or something? The audio sounds a bit muffled and not as crisp and and bright as all the others, either that or maybe the software is encoding the audio differently?
I actually had the SNES version of Jurassic Park. I burst out laughing when you said “THERE”S NO SAVE FEATURE!” And you’re right, you can’t play the game in one sitting, it would take too fuckin’ long.
This was a damn good episode, and it’s great to finally know when the E.T. review is coming. Excellent way to hype up the movie, I’m fucking stoked. It will be better than having a magic leprechaun come and bring you beer.
Say what you will about the NES Jurassic Park, it had some seriously catchy music! It was instantly familiar when I heard it in the background, even though the last time I heard it was when I was playing the game back when it was new!
I recently completed Jurassic Park on SNES using savestates/emulator. It always bothered me that I never finished it. The lack of a MAP really pissed me off, but I managed it somehow. Then I was treated to a classic Ocean Software ending, “congratulations, you have completed the game, now fuck off”.
E.T. can’t possible be as bad as its being made out to be, can it? I always thought Atari (and all era consoles) had a capped suckage factor. So now I’m really curious to see the movie follow-up to this.
Holy shit James!!!! I swear, I was just thinking about all the Jurassic Park games today, going through each one in my head. I was looking at an old GamePro on the toilet. It had The Lost World for the Sega Genesis. I was thinking about how SNES and Genesis both had overhead and sidescrolling versions. Jurassic Park for SNES and Lost World for Genesis were both overhead and Jurassic Park plus Rampage Edition for Genesis and Jurassic Park 2 for SNES were both sidescrolling. For Playstation, there was The Lost World plus a Special Edition and Warpath, a fighting dino game like Primal Rage.
So yea, I was thinking about all this today while taking a shit. No, I am not shitting you. I’m dead fucking serious.
Let me say this. It was the best way to advertise your movie. There’s no need for a trailer anymore. You just made everyone excited by now.
First, I thought: “oh shit…he’s going to play it. please don’t play it, I’m not prepared for this yet”
Then I thought: “oh..he’s just advertising..for the movie maybe?”
Then at the end” Oh, shit…he took the game out of the box…he’s going to do it!!!”
This was just perfect! I couldn’t imagine a better way to prepare the fans for this.
Though I think Jurassic Park games would have been a more appropriate title, I really liked this episode. It was kind of back to the basics style. Though I do wish you talked about the SNES version of Hook (BTW, yes, I like that moivie).
That would be pointless Etkar. He should wait until he has some footage to.. you know, TEASE us with. Otherwise all you’re going to see is some dumb video with text in it that isn’t reflective upon the quality of what the final product is going to be anyway. He’s already teased us enough with his two articles on the subject. The next announcement he makes on it should either be production blogs or a trailer.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but weren’t there plans for another Jaws game on the NES at sometime? I clearly remember as a kid seeing a screen shot for a totally different Jaws game in the coming soon section of Nintendo Power. I was really excited, but never saw the game made.
LOL this one seems like one of the classic AVGN vids. So simplified and filled with awesome ANALogies. “I didn’t even move the length of a gnat’s dick!”
One day, The Angry Video Game Nerd should make an appearance on The Big Bang Theory. That’s a crossover I’d watch. How would they do it, I don’t know. All I know is it’d be nerdtacular!
I own a atari 2600 , and I recently found the ET game and played it, good lord I have never played anything as horible as that game its imposible to play, I bet that game got atari to go bankrupt . Any ways good review James and that Snes Jurasic park the chaos continues was awesome I use to play that game with my neighbor when I was a kid for hours it so fing hard
I own ET. I am probably gonna be the first person to say this, and people are probably gonna criticise me or laugh at me, but I don’t think it’s really as bad as people say.
I still think it’s a very, very bad game, but I have honestly played worse games. It’s kind of like Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde, which I’ve also played. It’s not as bad as everyone says, but it is still very bad.
Mind you, I hate Strider for the Mega Drive, so what do I know.
Great episode!!!!!! I hate tht there won’t be another episode for a while, but hopefully there will b great things from Cinemassacre between then and now.
Now that the Nerd is on hold, so that the movie can be made, what does the future hold for a DVD release of these four episodes?
If you ask me, I think these episodes should be added to the DVD of season 5. That way, the DVD will have 17 episodes, just like the first season. With that, there’s at least 4 hours and 40 minutes of reviewing alone. If you add special features on top of that, you have a decent DVD release. You would have a decent release anyway, even if it was just the 13 episodes of season 5, but adding these four would make sense, considering how the show is pretty much on hold until the movie gets out.
I don’t know, maybe this isn’t the right place to ask this kind of question, and I’m not sure if either you James, or you Mike, will even see this comment, but I hope you will consider it.
Great Video James..I played that jaws game when i was a kid..I never had the patients to beat it…..Keep up the good work..Im looking forward to your AVGN movie…Here is a animation i released about a month ago..Ill have a new one out in about a week..Im doing my best to complete one every month.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls4GDGOfg60
Suck a tease sir! I cannot wait for the movie! I had a feeling that ET would be saved for the movie. I hope there’s a scene written in there where The Nerd goes to Arizona and digs up a copy of ET.
haha, the title of the “ET GO COME” game is german!
“UFI und sein gefährlicher Einsatz” means:
“UFI and his dangerous mission”
whoever the fuck UFI is…cuz its not ET… cuz ET’s german name is ET
so who is UFI?
I knew it! I figured, the way you were staring at that cartridge, that it was a set-up for the AVGN movie. This was a good episode! I can survive not seeing the AVGN for a while. I can’t wait to see what you create!!
Question and a comment:
Where’s that “Hill Valley having an antique shop opening in 2015″ line from? Back to the Future?
I ended the video after it said to be continued. Based on other’s comments about the movie tease at the end, I had to rewatch the end. I didn’t know there was more text after “to be continued.”
I was five when my parents brought home an Atari 2600. E.T. was one of the first games I ever owned and was THE first game I ever beat. I tell people this and they usually don’t believe me stating that “The game can’t be beaten.” Lies. I assure you it can and to this day I defend it as NOT the worst game ever made. Ever played Baseball for ATARI? That’s a turd. Pull down on the joystick and swing. Homerun everytime. What the shit is that? The biggest pile of shit I think I’ve ever played was also a Spielberg movie game, and previously reviewed here: Indiana Jones for ATARI. How can anyone think that POS is better than E.T.?
I liked Jurassic Park for NES and SNES (SNES was once in a while for me back when I was a kid). I wasn’t lucky enough to get Zelda but Jurassic Park was my first over head adventure game. I’m willing to admit not every Jurassic Park game was good, but there is a few actual good ones and can’t wait for the reboot that takes place during/immediately after the first movie.
Good movie James! I like the topic you chose. I wanted to point out that the past few videos you’ve made have become hazy an strange colored towards the end of the video. I’m not the only one who has noticed this and I think you should check them over and make sure they’re ok.
Man I remember the pain of Jurassic Park on SNES, no save feature and only 2 weapons that really did efficient damage to the dinos, especially all the bs with collecting everyones keycard and traveling in circles around the map. I recall when I played and beat the game, I had the SNES on for like probably 2 days straight. Also you gotta love how when you win, you’re on the top of the high score list but it doesn’t matter since it goes back to the preset madeup initials once your turn the game off
I always thought that my joystick was broken while playing ET. I remember playing it, stretching the neck and then nothing. I couldn’t do shit…. I preferred Kangaroo!! LOL
ET for the Atari 2600, you can only put it off so long…hey, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a reviewer actually BEAT it. they keep getting hit by the federal agents before they can collect the phone pieces and quitting in frustration.
Another awesome episode dude! I can’t wait for your movie! I know its going to be epic like everything else you guys have done.
Super schindlers list 3d.. man I hope thats in the movie LOL
As scary of a sight as E.T is for the Atari.. I still can’t help but think that “Taboo the Sixth Sense” for the NES is the worst game of all time… Every time I look at the game I feel enraged to a point of blackouts.. and blood covered clothes.. just kidding! but not about Taboo.. its the worst
Best of luck with the movie! catch ya on turtle tuesday
To Sacia and Killzone – He isn’t going anywhere so I don’t understand where your getting your information from. He said he is gonna take a little break to make other videos in his other series. He can’t make other videos when he is always working on the AVGN. You make it sound like he is never doing AVGN again. Learn to comprehend what people say instead exaggereating the truth you dumbasses.
So is ET for the 2600 more bad then Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for the NES? What about the other ET games? I have a copy of ET and my mom loves it. I have tried to play it but never can really get anywhere.
I may have only recently signed up to cinemassacre but I’ve been watching your videos for a while and I just want to say your a hugely talented and inspirational person James. Good luck with the AVGN movie, I’m really looking forward to watching it!
Excellent build up to the movie James! Words cannot express how excited I am!
Jurassic Park is one of my all-time favorite movies. I own the Rampage Edition as well as the SNES game. The SNES Jurassic Park has some kick-fuckin-ass music in it. I agree wholeheartedly that the biggest problem with that game is that it has no save feature. I don’t know how many time’s I’ve sat down to finish it, only to get pulled away.
Again, awesome episode James, can’t wait for the movie to get in motion!
Now that’s more like it! Funny, to the point, and full of background. That’s all you really need with an AVGN (nothing real over the top like the 100th). The jokes worked here, and you keep us hooked even after the video. Fantastic. This episode is probably one of my faves now. Like I said before, your complilation vids are the best! Keep ones like this coming James!
Oh yeah. I also have JP on genesis. And wow is it more fun to play with the raptor! The human dies too quickly. It’s fun a bit later into the game, until you have to figure out how to open doors. (I couldn’t EVER.; which stopped me from beating it). But yeah thanks for talking about it.
P.S. (You’re back)
Oh shit man whats rong with Avgn?!? He goes from hating Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde to laughin about inspecter Gadget to looking scared as if he saw……i dunno be creative about somthing scary…. but anyway nice one and i gotta admit i actually LIKED Jurassic parc 2….well mostly the contra style part but f*** do i hate those DAMN MINES!!!

Just when I was about to call you an E.Tease, you make me fall in love with you again!
Expectations are through the ROOF! FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!
April 7, 2011 at 12:06 am
Great video, James! And I just have to say, BEST DAMN CLIFFHANGER IN INTERNET HISTORY!!! Can’t wait for a chance to see the movie. The break in Nerd videos sucks, sure, but it’s going to be well worth the wait.! Besides, there’s more Board James and You Know What’s Bullshit coming this year, and I’m really excited about that. I always thought Board James should be a bigger part of what you do.
In any case, good luck with the movie! I would gladly do whatever I could do get that bitch a theatrical release!!!
April 7, 2011 at 12:08 am
my god man, not ET! uve been saving that one, is now the time? good luck man, i think ur gonna need it
April 7, 2011 at 12:08 am
Awesome episode James, can’t wait for the movie!!!!
April 7, 2011 at 12:11 am
That 3DO Jurassic Park looks like a shitty version of a game they would release on the Wii now for 20 bucks.
April 7, 2011 at 12:13 am
Good luck with the movie, now we know why you never reviewed E.T. The Extra Testicle =)
April 7, 2011 at 12:13 am

An AVGN movie?! :O Best of luck with everything!
April 7, 2011 at 12:18 am
Good work James, nice video. I think its great that you put some detail into the character of the Nerd, and ET is almost like a weak point to AVGN; like Superman and his Kryptonite, the Nerd can’t stand to play one of the most hated games of the 20th century, and honestly, one of the attributing reasons of the video game crash of ’83.
I wish you good luck in your feature film effort. Hope everything goes according to plan and without a hitch during development.
April 7, 2011 at 12:20 am
it was kind of predictable something was going on with et when he took the game box. then i expeted he would talk about et on a continued video, or maybe delay i. anyways, the drama was really funny, and continuing it in the movie gets me really really excited. i hope it might be done by 2013 or less. Is this the last nerd episode untill the movie?
April 7, 2011 at 12:21 am
Whenever you need support from your fans, we’re all ears!
April 7, 2011 at 12:23 am
I always thought Jaws was the best LJN game, but thats like saying “In the name of the King” is the best Uwe Boll movie… they all suck!
April 7, 2011 at 12:24 am
Damn ya blue balled me hard on the ET review cant wait for the movie! James D. Rolfe for president 2012
April 7, 2011 at 12:27 am
Great video James, you reviewed a few games I have been waiting on for awhile: Jaws and the Jurassic Park games, those were ones I played as a kid. Best of luck with the movie. You should set up a paypal account or something similar that people fans can donate to.
April 7, 2011 at 12:29 am
Super Schindler’s List 3D needs to be made. Now.
April 7, 2011 at 12:32 am
Son…of…a…bitch…lol! I knew you were gonna do that. Good review James. Very classic AVGN. Reminded me of videos like the Atari 5200 and Simpsons reviews. Can’t wait to see the movie come to fruition. Take it easy and hope to see the Nerd back in full swing very soon. : )
April 7, 2011 at 12:35 am
Awesome concept for an episode, James.
I like the first Jaws film (I have the 30th anniversary DVD), the 2nd film is a bit of a rehash, and the 3rd and 4th films are crap …just like all the Jaws games.
I’m one of those people who likes “Hook.”
Super Schindler’s List 3-D. Man, that was hilarious and unexpected.
Man, there were alot of games based on the first Jurassic Park film, but that was to be expected, because it was the biggest film of 1993. I also find the 3DO game weird as Hell.

Glad you haven’t reviewed E.T. the Extra Terresticle. Everyone else has anyway. Plus, given the history of its production, who could expect it to be a good game, right?

awesome Back to the Future part 2 reference. also i cannot wait for the movie. Please get it done.
April 7, 2011 at 12:37 am
Well looks like the next episode after your little “break” will be about E.T. Still James, i say that you need to make some episodes where you review some PS1 games since i think you’ve only reviewed like 1 or 2 games in that console i believe.
Well i hope that everything goes well in the AVGN movie and the other movie your playing a role in.
April 7, 2011 at 12:38 am
ha I was like noooooo when you had the cliffhanger at the end. I hope your movie is a huge success and I hope that it is in a theater near me. I would go to see it opening night. I cannot wait for it. I would think that it would get done reasonably fast by movie standards because you already have the script completed but what do I know about making movies. Keep doing what you love and do not work too hard.
April 7, 2011 at 12:38 am
Awesome job, James. Hit that movie out of the park.
April 7, 2011 at 12:38 am
As soon as AVGN said there was going to be a review in the movie, I KNEW it was going to be E.T. It’s finally coming. And great review James. Just the kind of review I’ve wanting from you.
April 7, 2011 at 12:41 am
he does have a donate paypal button on the home page of cinemassacre.com It is hard to miss
April 7, 2011 at 12:48 am
Hook for Sega CD was actually pretty good.
April 7, 2011 at 12:57 am
I cant beleave u have reviewed my most hated games in my childhood thanks James for reviewing The Jurassic Park Games i hated those games so much the films where amazing and wonderful and the games remind me of what shit can do to great games. by the way what happen to your facial hair? oh well great review James can’t wait for E.T. I Hated The Jurassic Park Games!
April 7, 2011 at 1:00 am
Great, great review. I especially enjoyed this one, as I have played the Genesis Jurassic Park games, and watched someone play through Jaws. My friend beat Jaws in a few hours, maybe less, if I recall. Not exactly a horrible game, but worth the price of an NES cartridge back in the day? Hell no. Rental, maybe.
Jurassic Park and Rampage Edition for Genesis were both great fun. They do have some issues and BS, but are good games, for the most part. I beat both all the way through with both characters. I didn’t realize the games for the other systems were something totally different! Thanks for the education!
Ooohhooohoo so we finally see what the AVGN movie will be about. I am looking forward to that. I wish you all the best of luck on this movie venture, and we’ll be pulling for you, man.
I’ve been watching you since the Angry Nintendo Nerd days on Youtube, years ago… and I’ve also loved your other videos you’ve done… this will be the pinnacle! Oh man, it will be awesome! Can’t wait, man!
April 7, 2011 at 1:07 am
hey CptRavyn your not alone the same thing happen to me i didn’t even know what it said Blury colors the movie?
April 7, 2011 at 1:19 am
Haha! I knew it.
Since James made the video update on “future AVGN plans” I knew E.T. was part of it because what better game for the nerd to review than the one that almost destroys an entire industry.
James good luck with it, if you have to take a break I, personally, wouldn’t mind. I know you work really hard and I really want to see that movie, I’ll fucking buy it
I wish you all the luck.
By the way, I don’t know if you’ll read this (I wish you would) but I’m a fan of all your work, my favorite being “The deader the better” I just go crazy watching all that blood.
April 7, 2011 at 1:21 am
I had all the SEGA genesis Jurassic Park games and i loved them. I spent many hours replaying them and I thought Rampage was AWESOME!!!! i think you may have been a little harsh.
April 7, 2011 at 1:30 am
lol i predicted this 1 day before he announced it. Anyway can’t wait.
April 7, 2011 at 1:34 am
I’ll buy the movie, please provide a link/way to buy it. Loved this episode.
April 7, 2011 at 1:41 am
What a cliffhanger ending!
Looking forward to the AVGN movie
April 7, 2011 at 1:45 am
I laughed so hard my face hurts! (^.^)
Can’t wait for the movie, it’ll be great – I can feel it in my tippy-toes!
April 7, 2011 at 1:52 am
You were jerkin my meat and balls until I was about to shoot man glaze all over the place and then YOU STOPPED RIGHT AT THE EXACT MOMENT OF MANGASM!
Fuck, we can’t wait another month or 10 , for the AVGN movie…you MUST put this beast to rest, destroy the evil shit log that is ET for the 2600, goddddammnnntttt AVGN!!!!! Damn YOU!
April 7, 2011 at 1:53 am
Another American Movie reference!
man.
April 7, 2011 at 2:07 am
Such an excellent episode before the hiatus. Favorite part was the BTTF2 reference, and I must’ve missed the reference to American Movie (guess I’ll have to re-watch sometime).
Looking forward to AVGN: The Movie, and am hoping it gets some sort of theatrical or festival release whenever it’s completed.
April 7, 2011 at 2:16 am
Hey, James. You’ve missed Jurassic Park 2: The lost world on Sega. It is got nothing to do with the movie but, it’s one of the best games in sega library and it is worth checking out. Best jurassic park game on old consoles.
April 7, 2011 at 2:25 am
Hey James, are you using a different microphone in this video or something? The audio sounds a bit muffled and not as crisp and and bright as all the others, either that or maybe the software is encoding the audio differently?
April 7, 2011 at 2:37 am
Jaws sounds like an early version of pokemon. Walk about… fight things… power up… fun fun fun fun.
April 7, 2011 at 3:03 am
I actually had the SNES version of Jurassic Park. I burst out laughing when you said “THERE”S NO SAVE FEATURE!” And you’re right, you can’t play the game in one sitting, it would take too fuckin’ long.
April 7, 2011 at 3:07 am
This was a damn good episode, and it’s great to finally know when the E.T. review is coming. Excellent way to hype up the movie, I’m fucking stoked. It will be better than having a magic leprechaun come and bring you beer.
April 7, 2011 at 3:10 am
oh you asshole!
April 7, 2011 at 3:36 am
Now this is a vintage AVGN episode. Great job!
If for some reason you find yourself near Pittsburgh while shooting the movie, hit me up!
April 7, 2011 at 3:48 am
Say what you will about the NES Jurassic Park, it had some seriously catchy music! It was instantly familiar when I heard it in the background, even though the last time I heard it was when I was playing the game back when it was new!
April 7, 2011 at 4:22 am
Great episode !!! I love u so much man , plz have sex with me
Cant wait for the movie.
April 7, 2011 at 4:38 am
Amazing episode James! Really hope the movie can be purchased/downloaded/watched or what the f**k ever also here in Switzerland!
April 7, 2011 at 5:17 am
I recently completed Jurassic Park on SNES using savestates/emulator. It always bothered me that I never finished it. The lack of a MAP really pissed me off, but I managed it somehow. Then I was treated to a classic Ocean Software ending, “congratulations, you have completed the game, now fuck off”.
If you like the music in the NES version, it’s ripped off from Comic Bakery for the C64: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf29ShkoAiA
Looking forward to the movie; I know people who use the word “epic” are douchebags, but I’ll take the heat and say it’s going to be EPIC.
April 7, 2011 at 5:36 am
E.T. can’t possible be as bad as its being made out to be, can it? I always thought Atari (and all era consoles) had a capped suckage factor. So now I’m really curious to see the movie follow-up to this.
April 7, 2011 at 5:54 am
Holy shit James!!!! I swear, I was just thinking about all the Jurassic Park games today, going through each one in my head. I was looking at an old GamePro on the toilet. It had The Lost World for the Sega Genesis. I was thinking about how SNES and Genesis both had overhead and sidescrolling versions. Jurassic Park for SNES and Lost World for Genesis were both overhead and Jurassic Park plus Rampage Edition for Genesis and Jurassic Park 2 for SNES were both sidescrolling. For Playstation, there was The Lost World plus a Special Edition and Warpath, a fighting dino game like Primal Rage.
So yea, I was thinking about all this today while taking a shit. No, I am not shitting you. I’m dead fucking serious.
April 7, 2011 at 6:08 am
Let me say this. It was the best way to advertise your movie. There’s no need for a trailer anymore. You just made everyone excited by now.
First, I thought: “oh shit…he’s going to play it. please don’t play it, I’m not prepared for this yet”
Then I thought: “oh..he’s just advertising..for the movie maybe?”
Then at the end” Oh, shit…he took the game out of the box…he’s going to do it!!!”
This was just perfect! I couldn’t imagine a better way to prepare the fans for this.
James, you rock!
P.S. I think it says DINO on the Floppy disk
April 7, 2011 at 6:57 am
Super Schindler’s List 3D was too much, I honestly couldn’t stop laughing for a good while.
Thanks for this.
Yeah, I knew you would save ET for the AVGN film, what better choice?
April 7, 2011 at 7:00 am
i knew E.T would be the review in the movie!
April 7, 2011 at 7:27 am
Though I think Jurassic Park games would have been a more appropriate title, I really liked this episode. It was kind of back to the basics style. Though I do wish you talked about the SNES version of Hook (BTW, yes, I like that moivie).
April 7, 2011 at 7:44 am
James, you really should make a teaser trailer for AVGN: The Movie before you start filming the movie…
April 7, 2011 at 8:10 am
That would be pointless Etkar. He should wait until he has some footage to.. you know, TEASE us with. Otherwise all you’re going to see is some dumb video with text in it that isn’t reflective upon the quality of what the final product is going to be anyway. He’s already teased us enough with his two articles on the subject. The next announcement he makes on it should either be production blogs or a trailer.
April 7, 2011 at 8:36 am
hahah he is teasing us with ET.
April 7, 2011 at 8:43 am
Worse than the rip-off ending of Back to the Future II.
“We need a bigger ass” was funny.
April 7, 2011 at 8:53 am
is this the one???? are you gonna review et in this one???
April 7, 2011 at 8:59 am
This is the Nerd as I know him.
Gameplay + witty comments and some Nerd scenes.
Thanks!
April 7, 2011 at 9:01 am
yey!!! more shitty games!
April 7, 2011 at 9:14 am
Correct me if I’m wrong, but weren’t there plans for another Jaws game on the NES at sometime? I clearly remember as a kid seeing a screen shot for a totally different Jaws game in the coming soon section of Nintendo Power. I was really excited, but never saw the game made.
Anyone else remember that issure / screenshot?
April 7, 2011 at 9:18 am
my wish was half granted, i cannot FUCKING WAIT FOR AVGN THE MOVIE!!!
April 7, 2011 at 9:30 am
LOL this one seems like one of the classic AVGN vids. So simplified and filled with awesome ANALogies. “I didn’t even move the length of a gnat’s dick!”
One day, The Angry Video Game Nerd should make an appearance on The Big Bang Theory. That’s a crossover I’d watch. How would they do it, I don’t know. All I know is it’d be nerdtacular!
April 7, 2011 at 9:34 am
I own a atari 2600 , and I recently found the ET game and played it, good lord I have never played anything as horible as that game its imposible to play, I bet that game got atari to go bankrupt . Any ways good review James and that Snes Jurasic park the chaos continues was awesome I use to play that game with my neighbor when I was a kid for hours it so fing hard
April 7, 2011 at 10:01 am
I own ET. I am probably gonna be the first person to say this, and people are probably gonna criticise me or laugh at me, but I don’t think it’s really as bad as people say.
I still think it’s a very, very bad game, but I have honestly played worse games. It’s kind of like Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde, which I’ve also played. It’s not as bad as everyone says, but it is still very bad.
Mind you, I hate Strider for the Mega Drive, so what do I know.
April 7, 2011 at 10:35 am
Great episode!!!!!! I hate tht there won’t be another episode for a while, but hopefully there will b great things from Cinemassacre between then and now.
April 7, 2011 at 10:36 am
I also have another question for you, James.
Now that the Nerd is on hold, so that the movie can be made, what does the future hold for a DVD release of these four episodes?
If you ask me, I think these episodes should be added to the DVD of season 5. That way, the DVD will have 17 episodes, just like the first season. With that, there’s at least 4 hours and 40 minutes of reviewing alone. If you add special features on top of that, you have a decent DVD release. You would have a decent release anyway, even if it was just the 13 episodes of season 5, but adding these four would make sense, considering how the show is pretty much on hold until the movie gets out.
I don’t know, maybe this isn’t the right place to ask this kind of question, and I’m not sure if either you James, or you Mike, will even see this comment, but I hope you will consider it.
April 7, 2011 at 10:37 am
What a great episode, James!
Laughed so hard at the casual-driving part!
I’m really looking forward to your movie!
April 7, 2011 at 10:52 am
Great Video James..I played that jaws game when i was a kid..I never had the patients to beat it…..Keep up the good work..Im looking forward to your AVGN movie…Here is a animation i released about a month ago..Ill have a new one out in about a week..Im doing my best to complete one every month.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls4GDGOfg60
April 7, 2011 at 10:54 am
Suck a tease sir! I cannot wait for the movie! I had a feeling that ET would be saved for the movie. I hope there’s a scene written in there where The Nerd goes to Arizona and digs up a copy of ET.
April 7, 2011 at 11:05 am
haha, the title of the “ET GO COME” game is german!
“UFI und sein gefährlicher Einsatz” means:
“UFI and his dangerous mission”
whoever the fuck UFI is…cuz its not ET… cuz ET’s german name is ET
so who is UFI?
April 7, 2011 at 11:11 am
@MotherFucker Mike
Thanks
April 7, 2011 at 11:13 am
I’m so freaking stoked!!!!
April 7, 2011 at 11:34 am
WWE The Rock cit:
FINALLLYYYYY!! E.T. HAS BEEN PLAYED BY AGVN!!!
EPISODE 102 ENTERING ON STORY OF THIS SITE!!
GREAT!
DVD ?? I HAVE A DVD WITH ALL EPISODE DOWNLOADED IN MP4 FORMAT!! GREAT COLLECTION!! EVERY 101 EPISODES IN 2 DVD!
April 7, 2011 at 11:49 am
I knew it! I figured, the way you were staring at that cartridge, that it was a set-up for the AVGN movie. This was a good episode! I can survive not seeing the AVGN for a while. I can’t wait to see what you create!!
April 7, 2011 at 12:04 pm
Question and a comment:
Where’s that “Hill Valley having an antique shop opening in 2015″ line from? Back to the Future?
I ended the video after it said to be continued. Based on other’s comments about the movie tease at the end, I had to rewatch the end. I didn’t know there was more text after “to be continued.”
this is great work james
April 7, 2011 at 12:09 pm
So far this season has been awesome and this episode is no exception.
Which Steven Spielberg movie do you like the least?
Good luck with the movie!
April 7, 2011 at 12:24 pm
Jaws, Hook, and Jurassic Park…one of these games is based on actual events.
April 7, 2011 at 12:53 pm
I was five when my parents brought home an Atari 2600. E.T. was one of the first games I ever owned and was THE first game I ever beat. I tell people this and they usually don’t believe me stating that “The game can’t be beaten.” Lies. I assure you it can and to this day I defend it as NOT the worst game ever made. Ever played Baseball for ATARI? That’s a turd. Pull down on the joystick and swing. Homerun everytime. What the shit is that? The biggest pile of shit I think I’ve ever played was also a Spielberg movie game, and previously reviewed here: Indiana Jones for ATARI. How can anyone think that POS is better than E.T.?
April 7, 2011 at 12:56 pm
I liked Jurassic Park for NES and SNES (SNES was once in a while for me back when I was a kid). I wasn’t lucky enough to get Zelda but Jurassic Park was my first over head adventure game. I’m willing to admit not every Jurassic Park game was good, but there is a few actual good ones and can’t wait for the reboot that takes place during/immediately after the first movie.
April 7, 2011 at 1:08 pm
super schindler’s list 3d
XD
April 7, 2011 at 1:20 pm
Great review and build-up to the movie James… can’t wait for it!
April 7, 2011 at 1:21 pm
Good movie James! I like the topic you chose. I wanted to point out that the past few videos you’ve made have become hazy an strange colored towards the end of the video. I’m not the only one who has noticed this and I think you should check them over and make sure they’re ok.
Can’t wait for the movie!
April 7, 2011 at 1:22 pm
can’t wait for the movie, i hope it comes out soonish
April 7, 2011 at 1:24 pm
Man I remember the pain of Jurassic Park on SNES, no save feature and only 2 weapons that really did efficient damage to the dinos, especially all the bs with collecting everyones keycard and traveling in circles around the map. I recall when I played and beat the game, I had the SNES on for like probably 2 days straight. Also you gotta love how when you win, you’re on the top of the high score list but it doesn’t matter since it goes back to the preset madeup initials once your turn the game off
April 7, 2011 at 1:25 pm
I always thought that my joystick was broken while playing ET. I remember playing it, stretching the neck and then nothing. I couldn’t do shit…. I preferred Kangaroo!! LOL
April 7, 2011 at 1:49 pm
ET for the Atari 2600, you can only put it off so long…hey, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a reviewer actually BEAT it. they keep getting hit by the federal agents before they can collect the phone pieces and quitting in frustration.
April 7, 2011 at 2:07 pm
Great video. I’d like to offer my services on the movie. Don’t live far. Will travel. @pskeen0927 on twitter.
April 7, 2011 at 2:27 pm
Another awesome episode dude! I can’t wait for your movie! I know its going to be epic like everything else you guys have done.
Super schindlers list 3d.. man I hope thats in the movie LOL
As scary of a sight as E.T is for the Atari.. I still can’t help but think that “Taboo the Sixth Sense” for the NES is the worst game of all time… Every time I look at the game I feel enraged to a point of blackouts.. and blood covered clothes.. just kidding! but not about Taboo.. its the worst
Best of luck with the movie! catch ya on turtle tuesday
April 7, 2011 at 2:28 pm
To Sacia and Killzone – He isn’t going anywhere so I don’t understand where your getting your information from. He said he is gonna take a little break to make other videos in his other series. He can’t make other videos when he is always working on the AVGN. You make it sound like he is never doing AVGN again. Learn to comprehend what people say instead exaggereating the truth you dumbasses.
April 7, 2011 at 2:33 pm
So is ET for the 2600 more bad then Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for the NES? What about the other ET games? I have a copy of ET and my mom loves it. I have tried to play it but never can really get anywhere.
April 7, 2011 at 2:38 pm
I may have only recently signed up to cinemassacre but I’ve been watching your videos for a while and I just want to say your a hugely talented and inspirational person James. Good luck with the AVGN movie, I’m really looking forward to watching it!
April 7, 2011 at 2:41 pm
Great episode! And said with much respect – James, you are one hell of a cock teaser!
^_^
ASS! FUCK! SHIT PICKLE! COOOOOOOOOOOCKKKKKK!
Best wishes!
April 7, 2011 at 2:41 pm
Excellent build up to the movie James! Words cannot express how excited I am!
Jurassic Park is one of my all-time favorite movies. I own the Rampage Edition as well as the SNES game. The SNES Jurassic Park has some kick-fuckin-ass music in it. I agree wholeheartedly that the biggest problem with that game is that it has no save feature. I don’t know how many time’s I’ve sat down to finish it, only to get pulled away.
Again, awesome episode James, can’t wait for the movie to get in motion!
April 7, 2011 at 2:47 pm
Also I have to agree…this is some sort of cinematic masterpiece. What I mean is, this is the most epic cliffhanger that has ever existed.
April 7, 2011 at 2:48 pm
One last comment @ the people who say “I’ve never seen a reviewer who has beaten it”
Niero, founder of Destructoid.com has beaten E.T. Ask him about it :p
April 7, 2011 at 3:19 pm
Now that’s more like it! Funny, to the point, and full of background. That’s all you really need with an AVGN (nothing real over the top like the 100th). The jokes worked here, and you keep us hooked even after the video. Fantastic. This episode is probably one of my faves now. Like I said before, your complilation vids are the best! Keep ones like this coming James!
Oh yeah. I also have JP on genesis. And wow is it more fun to play with the raptor! The human dies too quickly. It’s fun a bit later into the game, until you have to figure out how to open doors. (I couldn’t EVER.; which stopped me from beating it). But yeah thanks for talking about it.
P.S. (You’re back)
April 7, 2011 at 3:31 pm
Oh shit man whats rong with Avgn?!? He goes from hating Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde to laughin about inspecter Gadget to looking scared as if he saw……i dunno be creative about somthing scary…. but anyway nice one and i gotta admit i actually LIKED Jurassic parc 2….well mostly the contra style part but f*** do i hate those DAMN MINES!!!
April 7, 2011 at 3:33 pm
Btw pls as you or motherfucker mike to do et. PLS!!!!!!!! I DONT CARE IF YOU DONT HAVE A ET SUIT ON JUST DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!
April 7, 2011 at 3:36 pm
if the spoony one manadged to reveiw E.T while in pain from losing his wisdom teeth then the AVGN should be able to do it fine!
April 7, 2011 at 3:36 pm
why no title card?
April 7, 2011 at 3:42 pm
The jaws game looks unbelievably boring; I congratulate you for sitting through that.
I laughed so hard at that last Jurassic Park game, so random.
Can’t wait for the movie! I saw Spoony’s review of the game, so I’m interested in what you will come up with.
