It's so funny to me that Contra, which was a ripoff of every action and sci-fi flick of the 80s era more or less, was a great game while all the actual game versions of things like "The Terminator" and "Rambo" sucked.
I get the feeling that it's because that the company's that made the games that were based on the movies were relying on the popularity of the movies themselves to camouflage the shit puddles that were the games whereas contra had to hold up itself all by it's lonesome and it greatly succeeded
You know what's really weird? Nearly every shooter game James played in the past he mentions Contra, which is a really badass game. He did a Castlevania marathon since he always mentions it, how about making a Contra marathon of different Contra games both good and bad? I bet that would be very interesting since James always seems to bring up the name Contra in a lot of these old episodes. One of these days he will I bet.
The music in the Sega CD version is awesome, because it was Tommy Talarico. Who also did the music in MDK, Wild 9, Skeleton Warriors, and the Earthworm Jim games.
jokerswild00 That's Nobuo Uematsu, or rather Nobuo Uematsu is in his own league not challenged by anyone ;) So in that case you might be close :) Uematsu is nr.1
Besides the actual sky-high quality of the videos, what I REALLY like about AVGN is the fact that he, unlike many other reviewers today, not only respects other people's opinions but makes clear that he's not gonna knock anyone for having their own, or force his on anyone else. And plus, he looks forward to the newer games and plays those, too. So here's a guy who looks to all ends of the videogaming pantheon and therefore has a 100% complete perspective on what it is he talks about. And I'm sure such a universal view and level of respect helps the video quality, too. Deadass, other people could learn from him.
One thing I really like about the NES Terminator game is that unlike almost every other game in existence, you don't take damage from simply touching enemies. Also, there is an infinite life code. B, B, up, left, and A on a second controller.
@@zyzzy-ko4ww This is an episode but your point still stands. I wonder if the Nerd ever acknowledged that in a future episode. I know James missed some things in several of the games that he played in the past.
"Making me put a wrench on a controller is that what you want to do with your life?" That line just makes me laugh so much. I love how we'd do things like this to have the game automatically play for us back then.
That music is the worst I've heard in any video game. My ears are bleeding. It's like the program they were using for making the music was having a seizure, and they decided to use what came out of it.
Dear James, I was wondering if you could please review all the bad robocop games! Examples being: robocop 3 for the snes is ok, but hard and the god awful Titus robocop game for the xbox. They was a ps2 version and gamecube but it was so bad it never made out of japan, not to mention robocop for Nes was a big disappointment... Love your vids! Sincerely, some guy
No, don't bring up RoboCop for Xbox. I remember playing that right off the heels of Halo. It was so bad I had to play Halo; Max Payne, and KOTOR just to get the flavors out of my mouth. FPS and RoboCop should have been a match made in heaven instead it was a pile shake made in hell.
@@nicholsjoshua15, like he said on this video, it's time to purge the Robocop on the XBOX inner demons out, and only a new review fromthe AVGN can save us all from that disaster, LOL! I mean, this game is ASKING to be humiliated!
The NES Terminator game could've been awesome, because they originally gave the license to Sunsoft, but during the making of the game the license expired. They changed it around and published it as Journey to Silius, which is a simple but fun platformer. Kinda sucks that it wasn't released as the Terminator game, 'cause maybe then more people would've bought it.
The reason the original music on Sega CD is so awesome is because it was composed by Tommy Tallarico, the legend who would go on to compose some brilliant music for games such as Wild 9 (an underrated gem), Earthworm Jim, Prince of Persia and the 2000 Spider-Man video game. He now does Video Games Live. Total legend.
The wrench tactic totally works with the game Rygar as well. As a kid I used tape and a pile of some coins with an NES Advantage to leave Rygar sitting there killing enemies in a place where they re-spawned infinitely.... I think I left it on while I was at school, by the time I came back I was totally powered up and was able to beat the game pretty easily!
When he left it running overnight, I thought he would have 0 lives in the morning due to arithmetic overflow, b/c the NES can't understand numbers bigger than 255.
there was a terminator game for the genesis he forgot to mention. I thought that was pretty good. and here's the best part, it has the terminator theme. it's classic 16 bit sounding but it's still the theme.
I have only seen the first Terminator movie, but I will see the second one eventually. The first Terminator game you mentioned had potential, but it looks like it is barely even playable without the use of an emulator.
Liquid Ocelot But it's the idea. Just play MGS3, when you find the handicapped guy, he says that the idea on Metal Gear is it having legs. This could be a test of the upper part, tho, lol

drokan bazckos Or if the game is a pile of ass like some of these crap Terminator ones. If a game is literally _unfair_ to the point of un-playability, then I really don't care if I cheat at it or not. If the game is fair, then yeah, I only cheat if it is for shits and giggles after beating it fair and square, or perhaps a PC game with console commands that help extend the life of an already great game.

I do that all the time just to set up extreme challenges for myself or to cause massive chaos in a level. =D
Great video, but there was one version of Terminator 1 that was left out, the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive version of this game. It actually wasn't bad even though it had only 4 levels and it also has the Terminator theme. Its probably the 2nd best version of this game, right behind the Sega CD version of course.
On an AVGN kick because watching videos is the only way to make the hurt of my dad dying pause. I’m glad I have something to make it go away for a bit and he has so much content.
If john connor sends his father back in time to conceive him, how was he originally conceived? I see that they are in like a time loop but I mean how would the very first john connor be conceived
@@valen9835 depends on the rules that they have involving time travel, in Terminator traveling time is on one single timeline that can be changed, others have each travel through time be a new universe with a changed timeline
The Sega Genesis version of Terminator is actually quite beatable and is a fun run and gun game! With Great music like in the Sega CD game! unlike this SNES one where it just seems like one level that loops endlessly!
***** No doubt about that one! He loves his Nintendo systems (and I think we all agree he loves the shitty NES/SNES games as well lol or making fun of them on the internet at least!) but he does give the Genesis its props here and there like in his XMEN video he mentions how Clone Wars was the best in the XMEN 16 bit games, and also recently I remember he was playing ToeJam & Earl on one of his other programs claiming it was one of his all time fav games. Though your right he does lean a bit towards Nintendo stuff.
All right, i'm back, i'm all refreshed, ready to play some more Terminator with all new extra Lifes! All six! SIX? ONLY SIX? You're motherfuckin' funny, James. :D
The funny thing about 6 lives being the maximum is that it's actually a bug. The maximum amount is actually supposed to be 7, but because of an oversight during game development and a weird way the game tracks amount of lives, it ends up being 6 instead.
It’s crazy how long ago these videos came out. Theses reviews are timeless. Every 6 months or so I always find myself going through the back catalogue for a good laugh.

It really makes me wonder why Konami didn't make games for the Terminator and Alien series.
@@reservoirfrogs2177 better than Alien isolation? That games so good.
Yeah,it is pretty weird.
5:55 When James said "I'll be back" I was really hoping he would come back crashing his car through the wall and ramming into the tv.
Me to
That would be awesome, and it would be a great Terminator reference, but that would damage his set.
Or he wouldn't have a house.
True.
@@PearangeProductions or...you know... *computer graphic effects*
James is so talented at making these videos. No wonder why retro video game reviewing exploded after he got it going
He was the one who popularized it. Hell he pretty much created his own genre of game reviewing.
To think he started making these for real way back in 2006. That's impressive.
GunvorPlays 2004.
Well yeah, but I mean when the series took off.
GunvorPlays True but think about it. He has been doing this shit for nearly 13 years. He was there at the fucking birth of RUclips.
The graphics and music are so depressing
like my life
The Deadpool That's not what the song is called
To be fair it is trying to reflect a post-apocalyptic dystopia
Its terminator why would it be the opposite of depressing 😂
You know what's really weird? Nearly every shooter game James played in the past he mentions Contra, which is a really badass game. He did a Castlevania marathon since he always mentions it, how about making a Contra marathon of different Contra games both good and bad? I bet that would be very interesting since James always seems to bring up the name Contra in a lot of these old episodes. One of these days he will I bet.
you know what id bet, that he'll play Raid 2020 3 years from now.
Is it just me or does he mention Life Force every time he plays a space shooter game?
He mentions Life Force because it's arguably the best space shooter on the NES, so being a classic-game nerd that's his go-to.
In my opinion Contra and Metal Slug are equally good.
Eddie Metal Slug was release WAY past the NES lifespan (maybe). Nerd mentions Contra since it was innovative to the genre itself.
The Terminator has one kick-ass theme!
this comment dint evem have a reply intill 4 weeks ago
Typhlosion4President T2 was even better!!
2nd film theme was Over9000 times better
Yep, and only the Sega CD game has it. The Sega CD game is the only good Terminator game in existence.
Great workout music if you want to get ripped like Kyle Reece or jacked like the Terminator. It's the ultimate cutting and bulking tune.
The music in the Sega CD version is awesome, because it was Tommy Talarico. Who also did the music in MDK, Wild 9, Skeleton Warriors, and the Earthworm Jim games.
Not to mention Pac-Man World Rally.

Funny thing James didn't notice, shooting the spears earn points too
That definitely would’ve saved him that huge reaction lol.
This is 3 years too late, but around 8:05 there. He got 100 points for firing at that spear.
Wow, cool that you noticed that :P
And no continues. Great.

And now i can play with all my extra lives all 6…
The nerd's face at 8:46 after having to start all the way back to the beginning of the game after losing his lives was dead-on priceless.
Keep in mind, a lot of 80s hair also got into that blender. That can mess up a lot of things.
HEAVY METAL!!!
Nice Niko pfp!

That music is the worst I've heard in any video game. My ears are bleeding. It's like the program they were using for making the music was having a seizure, and they decided to use what came out of it.
It is undeniably bad, but it oddly sounds intriguing at the same time. I don't know how the hell that works.
You think this is bad wait until you listen to crazybus theme
Edscratch23469 I did, and I have no words.
This music is heavenly compared to Crazy Bus's theme (as Edscratch23469 said) and Winter Games' Speed skate theme... *shudders*

Same. Ded 😂😂
I really enjoy that original music from the Sega CD Terminator. Would love to have that track, actually.
Funfact, if you have the Sega CD Terminator game, you can stick it in a CD player and skip to track 2 and you can listen to the game's music.
FedorovAvtomat , Yooo! That's great.

Its in itunes you can buy it now

Myself: "A rainbow, of SHIT."

Yep, the 4-kids of video-game.
its laughing joking numb nuts

You know how the inverted cross is often used as an anti-Christian symbol?
The inverted rainbow symbolizes hatred and despondency.
The NES Terminator game could've been awesome, because they originally gave the license to Sunsoft, but during the making of the game the license expired.

Shows how far they've gone from making crap like Terminator, Mario is Missing and Bebe's Kids to The Simpsons: Hit and Run the Prototype games.

He loves his Nintendo systems (and I think we all agree he loves the shitty NES/SNES games as well lol or making fun of them on the internet at least!) but he does give the Genesis its props here and there like in his XMEN video he mentions how Clone Wars was the best in the XMEN 16 bit games, and also recently I remember he was playing ToeJam & Earl on one of his other programs claiming it was one of his all time fav games. Though your right he does lean a bit towards Nintendo stuff.

Terminator for genesis is kinda fun, but it's VERY short. Terminator for SNES is a mess.
All right, i'm back, i'm all refreshed, ready to play some more Terminator with all new extra Lifes!

7:50 Wall-E on steroids.

If you're wondering, there actually is a good Terminator game on the NES; it's called Journey to Silius.
has someone made a ten hour loop of that five second loop yet? asking for a friend
The funny thing about 6 lives being the maximum is that it's actually a bug. The maximum amount is actually supposed to be 7, but because of an oversight during game development and a weird way the game tracks amount of lives, it ends up being 6 instead.
I fucking love Terminator on Sega C.D. It rocks!
I remember the Terminator 2 credits.
"Play the hit Nintendo game by LJN!"
nope
2:05 "hey! over here!"
It’s crazy how long ago these videos came out. Theses reviews are timeless. Every 6 months or so I always find myself going through the back catalogue for a good laugh.
My favorite part of the video is 8:47
