***** Just paused it, wrote the numbers in a text editor with the same spacing and searched for a 'binary to text' converter (yes I said binary and it's ascii or w/e I am just stating what I searched for. :P). If you haven't seen or heard of them check it out, I find a surprising amount of hidden easter eggs written into games or media like this.
Had to rewatch this after finally getting to play avgn deluxe. Some really challenging levels and awesome music. I'm not a zelda fan but it would be cool to have an avgn rpg some day and maybe one day a Board James Board Game.
What button has you throw a passive aggressive tantrum and make a narcissistic video 'refusing' to review a movie because it has icky female people in it?
I'm sure this is down in the comments somewhere but, the purple cat isn't a cat, it is Tottoro from the Studio Ghibli / Hayao Miyazaki film My Neighbor Tottoro ^__^
Very easily considering that if a game came out after SNES then it's highly likely James and Mike haven't played it. They are both almost completely retro gamers.
Mike, you grew on me over the years man. I think a lot of us long time AVGN fans respect all the work you do for Cinemassacre. Also, love your streams too bro.
At the last stage in this video, the letters in the background are in Japanese Katakana and spell things like "Angry Nerd", "Boss", "Freak" and "Ass". Great detaile!
Me too but it'll probably take a while. Their own games sequel (from this video) has been out for a little bit and they're just now getting to it. Ryans been streaming it so hoping he lets Mike and James borrow it to record for an upcoming week since I think these are recorded a while in advance.
I personally loved it and I was a Doom and Quake 3 fan but I have also seen hardcore Doom fans hate it. More-so people from the PC hate it for being too "console like" whatever that means. But I enjoyed it for what it is, some fun action and gore and a decent multiplayer with a Mario Maker style map editor. It made me quit Uncharted 4 halfway through until I got every trophy in Doom. Both it and Uncharted have been really great releases back to back IMO.
Hey +Cinemassacre, I just wanna say that I love the videos, and the content still (After 4 years) I still tune in every episode. Keep up the cool videos!
Certainly an underrated gem! I was expecting a simple thing,full of AVGN references, but it is indeed a very solid plateformer too, which the industry is clearly lacking right now! Having a second one was already a surprise, but I can't lie that I'd love another one...just because.
The game actually looks incredible. Definitely an improvement. I enjoyed the Japan stage too, with Scrotoro and the Tanuki with big balls (as all tanuki have in Japanese folklore--they actually censored the ballsack on the tanuki boss for the U.S. release of SNES Musya, and that might be something to check out).
That's awesome!!! My correcting of the Ryu pronunciation made it into the video game. Japanese Major - money well spent. Great to hear James enjoying belting it out now!!! RYUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
James, Mike, I am slightly disappointed in both of you for not understanding all the references in a game both of you are in. Scrotoro is based on Tororo, a character from the Studio Ghibli anime movie My Neighbor Totoro.
+Fuckingflesheater It's ok, he corrected it the second time he tried to spell it. Maybe his predidictive text messed up? You sound kinda upset though. Want a hug?
I love how these kind of videos showcase the astronomical difference between the scripted Nerd and the natural James Rolfe. Some people tend to forget that even their favourite celebrities and entertainers are just people like you and me.
If it's not comin' to Wii U, I'm not buyin' it. 2020 Edit: This comment is from 4 years ago, I was a strange naïve person then, and so I kinda regret leaving comments like this, but I won’t delete it because it’s historical
+LOLHICRONO Are you one of those idiots that thinks that a game that is suitable for kids can *only* be appealing to kids? Sorry, but calling other peoples's choices of entertainment as "for kids" doesn't make you mature. Maybe when you grow up, you'll realize that.
James, pray your daughter grows out of the Hello Kitty thing, because every grown woman I've ever known that was super into Hello Kitty also happened to be freakin' insane. I dunno what the link is, but I'm sure there is one.
Daniel Williams Alright I went and watched one of your vids and the demo reel 2014 was interesting. But you still didn't need to make fun of James. Was unnecessary really.
I was wondering, were the songs heard at 0:12 (similar to "You're the Best Around" from Karate Kid) and 1:04 (VERY close to an old MIDI labeled "Zelda's Adventure overworld" or "zcdiovr3.mid") intentional references or not?

Will there be a 3rd one?
When is it going to be released on ps4
hi
@@DrewskiGames24 ello
Waiting for the Tiger handheld version... 😛
sequels in planning:
AVGN 3
AVGN 4
AVGN 6 (no 5)
Rolfe
Rolfe: Generations
Rolfe: Resurrection
James Rolfe
Don't forget The AssAssination of Shitty Games by the Angry Nerd James Rolfe
Followed by another game just called AVGN
no #5 is the fith ones name and its a rickroll 6 is james rofle
There is a fifth game, but it's called Angry Video Game NerdS, but the s is a stylized 5
Which sequels reference you use? Sorry but I still don't get it.
when Mike said assimilation, I waited for James to correct him by saying ASSimilation. i was not disappointed.
Same here.
I know lol. I love the way he does it, too. He does it perfectly, in his classic James/AVGN way lol.
Wow. This James guy looks a bit like the AVGN.
+TGE Sounds like him too.
+TGE If you squint he kinda looks like Board James to, and his voice almost sounds like the bullshit man. weird!!
+TGE and that mike guy kinds sounbd like the hippy, bugs bunny, and the joker!
weird
Marcelelias11 and that "critic" person kind of looks like nostlagia critic!
ZSXDFV 2 What an odd coincidence!
I like how the game is plagued with modern game references but they dont get any of them because theyre so old school
Like the thing from bioshock?
I didn't know I would miss James and Mike Mondays this much :(
James takes "playing with yourself" to a whole new level
Lmfao
"To alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems." -Homer Simpson
Hearing James read his lines as the AVGN in this game is _surreal!_
"Don't take shits, give shits."
I'm glad James still remembers that legendary fanmail.
Level design looks like a massive improvement this time.
20:25 - If you're curious CAT-209 says "F*CK YOU NERD" in binary.
ez boss ez life
***** Haha! Aww, well it's good to know others were curious.
Trevor Belmont That makes sense, though I'm too much of a scrub to make that distinction myself. :P
even some of the Japanese neon signs say something like 'f*ck you angry nerd'. Lots of Easter eggs in this game
***** Just paused it, wrote the numbers in a text editor with the same spacing and searched for a 'binary to text' converter (yes I said binary and it's ascii or w/e I am just stating what I searched for. :P).
If you haven't seen or heard of them check it out, I find a surprising amount of hidden easter eggs written into games or media like this.
10:40. Took the words right out of my mouth. Except it's MegaMan 5, not 4.
+JustinEvitable80 That's right. I meant Gravity Man's stage from Mega Man 5 - Mike
+Cinemassacre No oatmeal stage? I'm disappointed.
+Cinemassacre Will this game be coming to the 3ds like the last one?
+JustinEvitable80 Yup. Gravity Man's stage was great in my opinion.
Gravity Man's Stage, correct?
Mike : "Alright, this is gonna be hard."
James: "Master Sphincter's dead."
Mike : *mental equations*
How can James be so humble he’s sitting there watching a video game made about Him, imagine growing up and living to see that
Dude. This legit looks like a really fun game.
"Dont take shits, (only) give shits"
I get that reference :D
+TheCoDzillaPlayer Live like a Windrammer as you Fuck
Aaron Jacobson See futures in balls ;)
+TheCoDzillaPlayer ...and live like a windrammer as you fuck!
+TheCoDzillaPlayer Don't even take a shit if you don't have to!(Also I like Mike Matinee)
The 4 horsemen of the apocalypse.
Had to rewatch this after finally getting to play avgn deluxe. Some really challenging levels and awesome music. I'm not a zelda fan but it would be cool to have an avgn rpg some day and maybe one day a Board James Board Game.
Be careful what you react to, James! The AVGN could sue you!
+William J Plaud No, he is more like that guy that killed his friends who didn't even exist.
ChauNyan great movie plot.
You mean Board James.
TheFineAVGNs
+PJ Khamis Bold AVGN
"I love tight spots."
Mike, for you EVERYTHING is a tight spot.
Knew that was coming as soon as I heard him say that line.
If everything is a tight spot
then AVGN is a tight spot...
MIKE LOVES AVGN CONFURMED
+israel Ramos STOPITY
I am the man Mario Sith
they don't understand so many references. like the bioshock big daddy or Totoro.
Totoro is from a film though haha.
+Malango I think I overheard one of them say Totoro..
+Malango Would be nice if they find out eventually, for the gateway's sake.
richsoryu they didn't.
***** Yeah, I re-watched it and realized they were reading the text. at the bottom of the screen.
That cat is a parody of Totoro from My Neighbor Totoro!
7:55
-"I only approved it"
-"You approved ? Well fuck you!"
Russia loves you James!
Haven't played this one yet but I remember the last one having kickass music.
Will this play on my Magnavox Odyssey?
Magnavox oddesy is awesome
papacreeperBOOM The Odyssey doesn't fuck around.
+papacreeperBOOM you've never even seen one live
+TerryFGM ??? if your asking if I've seen one before then yes I have.
it only plays on vectrex
4:49 James: "LOOK AT THAT TIGHT SPOT" Mike: "I LOVE TIGHT SPOTS!"
"go for the D"
i died lol
+TechnoMaru glad i wasnt the only one that found that amazing lol
still funny

wow...
I'm sure this is down in the comments somewhere but, the purple cat isn't a cat, it is Tottoro from the Studio Ghibli / Hayao Miyazaki film My Neighbor Tottoro ^__^
Cinemassacre why did you stop The AVGN Series?
Mine Craft
They didn't, buddy. James just doesn't put out episodes as reguarly anymore due to other projects :)
How can you not know Big Daddy?
Very easily considering that if a game came out after SNES then it's highly likely James and Mike haven't played it. They are both almost completely retro gamers.
+Gamesta100 Mike said though that the PS2 is one of his favourite consoles.
elmo shell I know it didn't come out on PS2, the guy before me said that James and Mike likely haven't played anything past SNES.
+Liquid Ocelot I either missed him saying that or I just forgot. But yes Mike is more likely to have played a newer game than James.
+Gamesta100 That's not true at all, they regularly play PS4 and XBoner
Kaka and Kaki = Poop in Hebrew... maybe that's why nobody says that anymore ;)
Awesome video as always!
+Mr Dan INSANE > In French, "caca" means "poop". :)
It means poop in a lot of languages, and when an American says it it's usually as a nicer way of saying shit or crap.
Oh, really? I had no idea you Americans used it too lol!
+MncDssctn hehe I didn't know that, cool :D
+Asdertman LOL! I guess POOP makes the world go round.
Oh, fantastic! Will this be seeing a Wii U release?
I hope
Marioman59
Ditto! :)
Probably not
dixonjt89
We can keep our fingers crossed! :D
Aeddy35
Oh, you don't think so? :)
I want the next game to be called DAMNation
Great to have 20 minutes of James playing with himself.
Finally! I waited for a moment like this where they play their own game! Keep up the good work guys!
I watched James play with himself, Uh, that came out wrong, lmao
i love mangos
or is it mangoes
+Accidental49 Or did it...
don't laugh at your own jokes you asschappie
Ok
That "changing gravity" gameplay in the space stage reminds me of VVVVVV gameplay. Especially at 16:10
Seemed like a direct reference to it. Loved that game!
The level is actually named "WhyWhyWhyWhyWhyWhy". As in YYYYYY, referencing VVVVVV.
YoshBrosXD Yeah, that's what I meant... ^^"
Holy shit 1 minute in and I'm here. Love you, Mike
+Ron H aw, refresh got me :(
Yeah mike is awesome!
+Ron H I can't help but to always call him Mike "The Motherfucker" Matei XD
Because he's hilarious in that series.
Can't wait for the next game: "AVGN"
Avgn :unleashed
Avgn :colors
Avgn :generations
And
Avgn 06
19:28 that was Tottoro from My Neighbor Tottoro
right? kinda bummed they didn't know that.
It's a tanuki. Not Totoro.
+Cherokee Cain I'm talking about the enemy smh
+SZakiabba My bad. I didn't even notice Totoro fly in there.
+SZakiabba James called it Scrottoro at one point.
Mike, you grew on me over the years man. I think a lot of us long time AVGN fans respect all the work you do for Cinemassacre. Also, love your streams too bro.
4:30 big daddy right, how did Mike not know this.
Jalor218 fair point
+theannoyinggeek he admitted he doesn´t play fps
Oh, well it's his loss, the piece of rat anus.
That's what I noticed.
theannoyinggeek lmao, I thought you said "big daddy mike".
*Shoots Mike
Mike "You killed me"
James "Good"
17:16 Kyubey's face in the background
+zeoxdragon The Nerd just pulls a Homura and keeps shooting him.
"Beer makes everything better"
*God brings down his beautiful audio waves to the world in the form of a Mike Matei quote*
"You will be ASSimilated. Resistance if futile."

At the last stage in this video, the letters in the background are in Japanese Katakana and spell things like "Angry Nerd", "Boss", "Freak" and "Ass". Great detaile!
wonder if we'll ever see them play through the new doom. That's what I was hoping for this week
Me too but it'll probably take a while. Their own games sequel (from this video) has been out for a little bit and they're just now getting to it. Ryans been streaming it so hoping he lets Mike and James borrow it to record for an upcoming week since I think these are recorded a while in advance.
+Hans Rickam He's right though
That's a matter of opinion and last I checked its being incredibly well received by the vast majority.
I personally loved it and I was a Doom and Quake 3 fan but I have also seen hardcore Doom fans hate it. More-so people from the PC hate it for being too "console like" whatever that means. But I enjoyed it for what it is, some fun action and gore and a decent multiplayer with a Mario Maker style map editor. It made me quit Uncharted 4 halfway through until I got every trophy in Doom. Both it and Uncharted have been really great releases back to back IMO.
+Meavy Hetal What makes it bad? It would be nice to hear something else than "its best thing eva"
Amazing what you guys have accomplished... Simply being brave enough to do what you love and put it out there..
Mike:"You gonna get the D? Get the D"
James:"Yeah, I GOT THE D!"
Hey +Cinemassacre, I just wanna say that I love the videos, and the content still (After 4 years) I still tune in every episode. Keep up the cool videos!
no guys. its not hello kitty. its Herro Kitty
Actually more like Harro Kitty
+Khyra Ares hell-o kitty
kaka
Actually, it's Jello Kitty.
+Parker Peters actually it's oh harow rair! you werry well..
great video guys. I love watching you guys just bs back and forth.
Cmon, dookie dookie panic is pretty funny.
Certainly an underrated gem! I was expecting a simple thing,full of AVGN references, but it is indeed a very solid plateformer too, which the industry is clearly lacking right now!
Having a second one was already a surprise, but I can't lie that I'd love another one...just because.
Please do Super Mario Maker next
yessssss
Jesse Gomez Yes please.
The game actually looks incredible. Definitely an improvement. I enjoyed the Japan stage too, with Scrotoro and the Tanuki with big balls (as all tanuki have in Japanese folklore--they actually censored the ballsack on the tanuki boss for the U.S. release of SNES Musya, and that might be something to check out).
The smug expression of Mike's sprite: "I slept with your mom and you know it!"
I really appreciated the "Don't take shits, GIVE shits!" callback to the greatest bit of fan mail ever written.
Any word on the 3DS/Wii U version? Would love to play this on my 3DS!
I think this was the best run I've ever seen James have in a game, ever.
He's still got some Skillz!
Finally! A Rival Game Of PewDiePie's Legend Of The Brofist..
Nah
+Replica Soldier actually, yes
except this one is made for a real channel/youtuber
+Jason Andersen A Rival game?
AVGN Adventures came out 2 years early than Legend of the brofist.
+Dereck Gonzalez How when this is a sequel?
Man. I just want the AVGN. I want him to be angry and hilarious like he was before.
He released a new AVGN just this week.
Why does Hong Kong have Japanese in the background?
I can't read it, I can just distinguish between kanji and hiragana/katakana lol.
That's because that's part of Japantown in Hong Kong.
Fucking Weeb GTFO
Its actually hong dong the level
The signs said, "fuck off" "Freak Zone" and "Angry Nerd" @@SpunkMcKullins
it's not based off the series it's based off the character(s) love you guys, great stuff your doing
Guys, how about releasing a physical edition of your games (on 3DS, for example)?? :D
I doubt Nintendo would allow that.
VGL Studios Xbox one / PS4?
they did.
Well they did release avgn adventures 1 on the Wii U Eshop (no I'm not joking that's a thing they did)
That's awesome!!! My correcting of the Ryu pronunciation made it into the video game. Japanese Major - money well spent. Great to hear James enjoying belting it out now!!! RYUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
When James said Dookie Dookie Panic I had to laugh :)
Anybody else like the video before even watching the content? Haha gotta love it!!
6:00 is that a big daddy?
Has to be. The purple boss on a flying top also has to be Totoro--the mascot of studio Ghibli.
Love this game. Thanks for putting it on playstation
"I love tight spots"
Huh.
finally James and Mike , I was waiting for this game for you two to play.
I hope this game comes out on 3ds because it looks really fun
Nope but its coming out on the Nintendo switch or came out today for it
@@MrTyler189 already preordered on switch
@@brandonthetoyandgamecollector me too I can't wait I never got to play either game
the visuals and effects for the game is awesome.
James, Mike, I am slightly disappointed in both of you for not understanding all the references in a game both of you are in. Scrotoro is based on Tororo, a character from the Studio Ghibli anime movie My Neighbor Totoro.
+TheInunah Was thinking that.
+Fuckingflesheater It's ok, he corrected it the second time he tried to spell it. Maybe his predidictive text messed up? You sound kinda upset though. Want a hug?
Hi. Hi. Correct.
Shut up Wap. You didn't get any non-Japanese reference.
Hugo Mendes Yeah. They recognize all this obscure stuff and then the things that really aren't awfully obscure are things they can't identify.
I love how these kind of videos showcase the astronomical difference between the scripted Nerd and the natural James Rolfe. Some people tend to forget that even their favourite celebrities and entertainers are just people like you and me.
4:30 Looks like Big Daddy from BioShock. :)
Now we should have an AVGN games 2 featuring this game.
"Ya gotta have a challenge" *play on easy* lmao
Simply gives a lot of lives.
the commentary was HILARIOUS. long live the AVGN!
Are you guys ever going to do an AVGN episode of the Nerd vs Motherfucker Mike?
Following you since '07 James!!!!
"No one says coca demons anymore, I used to say cocky demons" Oh yeah? Well I called them tomatoes!
Its cacodemon and he says nobody says caca anymore.
Haha! Really, you could have called them anything and it would have been passable.
I think the diver suit dude is supposed to be a big daddy from bioshock. I mean a dude in a diving suit with a drill?
Holy shit, this game looks amazing.
Now if only there were a level editor...
I just bought the sequel expecting it to be very challenging and boy was i not disappointed. it is awesome!
WTF bro
its fucking 5 am... on a monday
+gatobrado that's when he does it...
im drunk as hell. 4:31 a.m. in Chicago
uzieric1 me too, quarter of 6 in NH
+EvtheNev Yeah i know! i was just startled by the notification haha
So whats your point? No ones telling you to watch it now. Its doesn't matter when he uploads, its fucking youtube. You can watch it whenever you want.
You mentioned Robbie Rist! He's a long time family friend, and one of the coolest dudes I know!
If it's not comin' to Wii U, I'm not buyin' it.
2020 Edit: This comment is from 4 years ago, I was a strange naïve person then, and so I kinda regret leaving comments like this, but I won’t delete it because it’s historical
+Illoosion It may. But you should be able to play it on any PC
+polystrate1 But there needs to be a nintendo console that says fuck again! It says fuck!
+John Doe "It says 'FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU......!'"
+Illoosion You own a Wii U? You're probably too young to play this anyway.
+LOLHICRONO Are you one of those idiots that thinks that a game that is suitable for kids can *only* be appealing to kids?
Sorry, but calling other peoples's choices of entertainment as "for kids" doesn't make you mature. Maybe when you grow up, you'll realize that.
Keep on keeping on guys. Love all the little references the devs threw into the game.
I noticed you had 50 lives. Is there a Konami code in this game?
+OmegaWeaponFFVIII up up down down left right left right B A Select Start.
I know, I was asking if that works in this game.
+OmegaWeaponFFVIII I think he's implying that yes, there is
*****
No, I'm just trying to bring back those memories. but who knows, there's 50% chances that any game could have the Konami code.
Don't you have 50 lives on easy mode?
The joy on James' face is awesome
Should add someone like Roll in the game.
Also why HK is mixed up with Japan city? >.>
Im buying both 1 and 2 tommorow for the switch. I hope james continues with his success as he had worked hard to where he is now.
The Japanese signs say Furiiku Zone (Freak Zone), Kawaii, Angerii Naado! (Angry Nerd) and Faaku yuu! (Fuck You!)
Why would they write かわいい in katakana?
+The Smexy Potato because they don't know hirigana?
+88DreadGT The whatagana?
+88DreadGT English words are usually represented in Japanese using katakana rather than hiragana.
So you lame ass Otaku could read everything.
I literally rewatched the AVGN Games episode last night XD
James, pray your daughter grows out of the Hello Kitty thing, because every grown woman I've ever known that was super into Hello Kitty also happened to be freakin' insane. I dunno what the link is, but I'm sure there is one.
Insanity isn't always a bad thing. It makes people creative.
KuroNoTenno as if creativity is the only driving factor in a person
well that's rude
James you deserve all the games and the movie based off of avgn
HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT A BIG DADDY FROM BIOSHOCK IS!?
eh, he's old. give him a beer and an atari.
you don't know who you're talking to do you?
Daniel Williams
No one is special. I really don't care to be honest.
+Daniel Williams Big Daddy is NOT yellow.
Daniel Williams
Alright I went and watched one of your vids and the demo reel 2014 was interesting. But you still didn't need to make fun of James. Was unnecessary really.
Daniel Williams
Also learn to take a joke after you give one.
I was wondering, were the songs heard at 0:12 (similar to "You're the Best Around" from Karate Kid) and 1:04 (VERY close to an old MIDI labeled "Zelda's Adventure overworld" or "zcdiovr3.mid") intentional references or not?
