Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN) episode 195: Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures. Also known in Japan as "Hello! Pac-Man." Pac-Man 2 is a side-scrolling adventure game in the Pac-Man series. Instead of being a maze game like the majority of its predecessors, Pac-Man 2 incorporates light point-and-click adventure game elements. The Nerd is playing the Sega Genesis version. He joins Pac-Man exploring and interacting with the world and characters around him. Take on a task, and then take a wild ride on a mine cart or set off on an intense hand-glider flight while fending off some unrestful ghosts. This game was coined "the first ever interactive cartoon" by the game's manual.

Okay
I know there is a snes version of this game played by JDG
James, yet again you make another awesome episode of AVGN 🦝👍
@@PhilosophyRaccoon as usual
This was probably the Calmest and least chaotic Nerd episode yet.
I guess that's the ending joke - it's different than all the others.
Maybe that's why it has an ending like that
@Sukeban Deka Saki Sanobashi But he already became Stop Skeletons From Fighting
They are all pretty tame these days ..
Not a bad thing. This is the best modern era episode I've seen. Not amazing, just reminds me more of earlier stuff.
I used to play this game for hours. Sometimes with no intent on advancing, but just to mess with pacman. Pacman being chased by bees will forever be one of my all time favorite gaming memories
Me too. Loved this game. Its almost like maybe it was meant for PC like a point and click game
Prototype for Kick The Buddy
Honestly I just like to see Camie beat up by fatgum.
Don't ask why.
i used to play this a lot
@@birdmasterthecaffeinatedowl Lol same i loved it and i agree this will work better on pc
All these years later and 'Fred Fuchs' still makes me giggle like a child.
Same
Nice
Not really I dont laugh at these episodes anymore it's such a same I'll all like james and AVGN as the past ones where classics however what he's putting out now is d- and that's being kind
yes, lol ever heard of Ken Fuchs?
WHOA SPRAY SOME HOLY WATER ON THAT LIKE BUTTON
He's the mildly inconvenienced video game nerd
He'd rather go to a local cafe and have no wifi access
He'd rather lose the tv remote and have to get up search for it for the next twenty seconds
@@W.2026 this is the best comment reply EVER
@@W.2026 He’s gonna take you back a few years
To pretend to rage at games and keep his career
definitely a lot more toned down than his earlier stuff.
@@W.2026 He's gonna take you back to the past, to play some not so appealling games, that somewhat irritate you.
Fun facts this is the shortest AVGN episode since December of 2017
Ah yes, since the teras kasi episode, I think that might still be the shortest
And the most generic as well.
He's slacking
Funny, I could've sworn I remember back in his earlier days since 2006, one of his shortest was McKids, Wally Bear, Master Chu and the Drunkard Hu to name a few
You actually looked that up? That's cool
"You just gotta put up with Pacman's emotional outbursts."
I deal with that enough on an everyday basis.
What actually from Pacman himself,,now that would be pretty cool,,lol..
You got pac man as a pet? Dude... I feel like i should call the cops
Hey, you're the funny twitter guy who draws big bazoonkas. ily
"You just gotta put up with the Nerd's angry outbursts."
@@paul_warner We used to do that, not many more :'(
Thanks for featuring our recording we appreciate all the love that has come our way!
Ska ska ska
It's an incredible rendition... Thank you for arranging and recording that version
I think the nerd can also benefit from just exploring the WEIRDEST games out there, not just the WORST. Crazy reactions are always fun.
You know this engine would have been perfect for a 2D horror game
There’s clock tower on super famicom
Kinda reminds me of the original Clock Tower. Not quite, but its there familiarly.
When I was younger, I was stuck playing it at a funco for like 2 hours. See, my mom just forgot I was out with her, and left me at the shopping center until she realized I wasn't home for dinner.
I had nightmares about this game.
Well said. The devs probably had a grandiose idea for this system
Here’s the thing: Pac-Man 2 _is_ a horror game
Ever notice how James always says wolf like “woof?”
Well, he is from Jersey.
Maybe you hear it like woof?
The 2 words that always annoy me are "Mountain" and "Button" they're definitely not "Mowden" and "Budden" like he says lol
burry
the L is almost silent anyways, would you rather he say it in a thick nordic accent?
The delivery on "wow. Guess I'm gonna play that now" was perfect
He may not be as angry as before, but I love when he spuns these old game trivia on us. That being said, this one definetely had something strange going on. The pace and energy are very toned down.
Not trying to pull a "Gladiator", but I was still entertained. He has highs and lows, but even James' lows have always given me a few smirks. Always happy to see the new content indicator for Cinemassacre.
Considering the subject of the video, I have to wonder if that was deliberate.
He's still as entertaining to me as he was years ago, but it's obvious he's mellowed out with age, in which isn't a bad thing imo
People forget he’s now Middle Aged this is normal
He probably got a billion requests for this over the past decade only to find out it's not really bad, just a novel idea executed poorly. Man's too old to farm outrage when there's actually bad games still out there
Was watching “Return to Oz” and guess who’s name shows up in the credits? Fred Fuchs. I couldn’t believe it.
Return to OZ, love that movie, better than Wizard of OZ for me, i just love how dark it is.
That's because Fred Fuchs is actually a film/TV producer who worked on the *movie* Bram Stoker's Dracula, and happened to be involved enough with the video game tie-in to get a mention in the credits, spawning the running gag.
return to oz and dracula? now it makes sense
Watch Dracula episode
She was also in the Godfather credits
I can't believe you shot Pac-Man right in his Power Pellets.
fully functional ones too, the game is very clear that is his kid and he made it boning ms pacman.
Pacman is into cbt
Right in his Gum Monster
CBT
The absurdity of the game paired with the Nerd’s relatively understated delivery actually made this video funnier
Is it just me or did this episode seem very... mild? Compared to previous episodes?
Imagine living in a house that's just a giant version of your own head.
Lol, that's so weird, i always wondered how weird their Neighbours tought about it, it happens in Tails house and protagonist from pokemon rescue team too
I'd ather live in a pineapple under water somewhere.
@@BrickmanZero Or Donkey Kong who has an entire island shaped like his head.
@@GuestZer0 Also, the upgraded base in the original Pokemon Mystery Dungeon
This episode should have been the Nerd critiquing a handful of the Pac-man spin-offs.
Who do you think this is? Present day cadicarus?
@@dyingstar24 No, the early 2010's nerd that would do a deep dive into an entire back catalog if there wasn't enough meat on the bone for a single subject.
@@FIXTREME it was a joke....
@@dyingstar24 I figured that, but it still deserved being said 👍
How did you access the other games? For me he's just talking about one pacman game.
I've been following you for years. Can't express how big part you played in making my days joyful. I remember studying at university for countless hours and my biggest reward at the end of the day was to watch one of your videos in peace 😊 I hope you stick around for many more hours to come Cinemassacre!
6:57 I like the VERY small noise.
That Ska rendition of AVGN was so pleasing to hear!
Ska is the music of those who unworthy of dambationbut nobody wants around.
Once the guitar came in, it immediately made me think of Reel Big Fish, lol. While it didn't sound like what they make normally, it was definitely familiar!
huh?
Brought me back to my teen years 🤣
Tf is Ska?
This game is so surreal, it feels like pacman is a punching bag in a sitcom but they made it a weird point and click game instead..
This Pac-Man game is pretty much a video game starring Meg Griffin.
even the avgn intro song felt like a sitcom opening song
Y’think this is surreal try looking up the cartoon. They tried Flinstone-ing the character.
This seems to be the shortest AVGN in the last 4 or 5 years! That's pretty incredible. Also...James was playing the AVGN 2. That's meta
@@Xykaru that's not true lol. The episode is fine. You're doing too much
@@Xykaru what
Best ending ever. "All that we see or seem. Is but a dream within a dream." - Edgar Allan Poe
Aw man. I loved this game when i was a kid. But boy, was it hard.
Me too
I always wanted this game as a kid but my mom always said no. She knew!!!
Caught On Video: Brawl On Venice Beach Boardwalk
Oh cool! Im seeing you everywhere now
@@dogemaster-hm2ce 👁️ _ 👁️
As frustrating and obstinate as this game could be, it was still kind of amusing to see all the ways you could die. One being that you get doused in ketchup by an angry hotdog vendor and for some reason that counts as a death?
Oh and the soundtrack was great. Really helped take the edge off of the more difficult sections.
Getting doused in ketchup by an angry hot dog vendor results in death? Is that stuff mixed with acid?!
Slingshot at Lucy (no, not that Lucy) also counts as a death. Seeing Pac-man wanting to punch you for that is hilarious though.
Pac Man has a cataclysmic tomato allergy. Not only is it lethal to him, it causes his corpse to release noxious spores that zombify passerby.
This game ruined my childhood...
Really? It was incredibly simple and fun. Hardest part imo was the hang glider part. Pretty much a point and click game.
You ruined my childhood.
My cqmp counselor ruined my childhood 😢
Same
6ix9ine ruined my childhood
9 min video. 1 minute of Adverts. Feel like I'm watching broadcast TV
Pretty tame episode. If my Mom was like, "whats this AGVN about?" I would show her this one as to not emotionally scar her for life.😇
The Crossover with Captain X was pretty tame as well
Angry game video nerd
Honestly I kind of prefer it. The nerd character is fun and all but James is really down to earth and chill. It’s clear he’s passionate and it comes through a bit more when he’s just doing his thing.
But that’s just me.
Until you show her the cu- i mean gum monster
“Let’s all be adults here!”
“I’m going to paint his town red!”
Wouldn't it be paint his town white in this case?
@@alphagiga4878 no, those are just my favourite lines from two different reviews of the same game.
We still got Fred Fuchs references to this day. I love it. 😆
Anyone else feel like this episode had some time constraints or something?
4:03 - Pac-Man channeling his inner Al Bundy. I love it.
This game was so fun as a kid. I remember laughing and being amazed with all the secrets you could unlock. still fun to play on emulators.
Someone gets it!
I also loved this game as a kid. While I was originally expecting a platformer (like Pac-in-Time) I ended up loving the unique nature of Pacman 2: The New Adventures. It was a lot of fun and I loved all of Pacman's wild reactions (especially when he got angry and started cursing at me. LOL).
This game rocks. People just hate ir because they were expecting a classic style pac man
My favorite as well!
I really liked this game as a kid, played it a lot on SNES. Loved the animations, especially all the funny faces pac man do.
7:28 Riptide plays.
"Now that we're friends..." Making a lot of assumptions Pac
This makes me want to play the masterpiece, Pac Man World
That was a sidescroller, right?
What about Scatman's World
Pac Man World is my favorite PS1 game
Also try championship edition.
anubis rex is one of the hardest bosses I have ever beaten.
7:37 don't you mean "get our minds out of the cutter"? Wait a minute....
one of my childhood heroes 😂 so glad to see you’re doing well and still uploading, james! best of wishes!!!
He should give the Atari 2600 version of Pac-Man the Nerd treatment because it and the infamous ET game nearly killed the video game industry
I'm very grateful he is still making AVGN videos after all these years, but man he really has just become the "Somewhat mildly irritated video game nerd"
I prefer him being a bit more chill and building up the anger, instead of him immediately screaming his lungs out.
He doesn't have the time to get angry anymore.
getting older also mellows you out too. he started doing these videos back in 2004 remember
I think some fans can agree that the lack of angers is the least of the issue unfortunately
I think he’s great and don’t have a problem like a lot of other people seem to do. Everybody’s a critic
Now you know the true meaning of friendship. Shooting power pellets at your friend
7:50 Is that blood? That's kind of odd for a Pacman game.
7:48 Okay, His reaction saying the monster's name wrong got me laughing a little XD
I actually had plans to get this game, it's got a charm that no other game had ever had.
James needs to go back to his old shirts.this is too clean.
This. And his old style of making videos. He's pumping videos out like they're on an assembly line now. Same exact formula, every video is the same. I know he's a busy family man but this is just depressing when you compare it to his old content.
There's no originality anymore.
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 I don't mind the actual new vids, but there's no aggression anymore....no clever wordsmithery or frustration behind it...
One of the things that makes the older videos so different is the music. The new ones mostly use stock audio, but the older ones used a bunch of old-school videogame music and chiptunes. It seems minor, and it took me a long time to notice, but it makes quite a big difference. I also think the older videos had more elaborate and exaggerated jokes, which is funnier to me. I still like the new videos, however, and since we're getting close to episode 200, James might be planning something big for that, so let's see what happens.
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 James has made it clear that he hasn't really had a passion for AVGN for almost half a decade now, but he still wants to keep doing it because he wants fans to be happy.
I was mesmerized by this game as a kid. I dont know why
Me too. Played it for hours but never really got that far. Forgot this game existed and now I must find it and beat the whole thing.
"Look, we all know what it looks like let's just all grow up and get our minds out of the gutter!" :D LOL
3:40 HEY, where's that classic Nerd FREAKOUT?! It took me a while to get the milk bottle after dealing with farmers, bees, and the classic Sideshow Bob gag the rake. That is, if you know how to get the bottle...
That stuff probably doesn’t faze him anymore so he thought it wasn’t worth mentioning
And how about getting those cartridges for Ms. Pac-Man
@@lordofchromium1534 After the stuff he's seen, that would make sense
Never expected AVGN to cover this game. It's a guilty pleasure of mine. Infuriating, yet so charming and harmless adventure title with some great spriteworks!
That Ska Punk cover of the theme was amazing, great video Nerd
I cannot get enough of AVGN. I just want more. I keep watching the seasons over and over, and I just want more!!! Love ya James. Thank you for everything you do.
Hey, still better than PacMan on Atari 2600.
facts
But not better than ms Pac-Man on Atari 2600
The opposite
Fortunately, Ms. PacMan on the 2600 is fun.
Think on a tiger handheld would be better the 2600 version 😂
I hope all is well James, this one didn't feel like it had the usual energy of previous nerd videos.
Based on the ending i think it's meant to be a parody about how Pac man 2 is different from the usual pac man stuff.
It was pretty empty
It’s been like this for 2-3 years now to be honest. I think he is just burnt out
Maybe he is tired and don't want to do this anymore
@@sloppynyuszi Funny, people saying the exact same thing for well over 5 years now. I wonder when those "2-3 years" took place exactly .
A former neighbor and I used to lend our games... And I borrowed Altered Beast, Sonic The Hedgehog 3 and PacMan 2: The New Adventures.
Countless hours of playing in Saturday and Sunday with some snacks and soda. Miss those days.
Two of them are on the switch because of the Sega Genesis classics compilation and Sonic Origins
6:50 now we are friends XD
That glider section remined me of... Takeshi's challenge
Didn’t it take JonTron 2 years to beat that section?
@@schmoop3660 Yes. And I think the Nerd should give it a go as well.
@@ZekeAxel that could be a great review, I liked this one but I don’t think this game had enough material for a full episode so Takeshi’s challenge should be perfect!
@@schmoop3660 there its an takeshi's challenge game?
@@schmoop3660 wow 2 years? That is outstanding dedication
4:23
"He will just walk off this cliff like a f*cking Lemming"

@@johncoffta1428 :|
Really
3:10 reminds me of the music video for Money For Nothing
I like the pixellated AVGN at 8:28 :-)
I wont lie, I've been waiting for the Nerd to review this for at least a decade. Pretty disappointed the video is not even 10 minutes long.
There's really not much to say about this game. It's pretty simple and it's only 4 levels.
Yea hoped there would be a angry rant about how this game has nothing on common with classic pacman games and that its too childish considering even in 1994 most pac man fans where already older but this game seems to be for toddlers that would have not been able to remember when pac man was big.
@@belstar1128 And how there isn't that much "adventure" on it, as you're basically doing Pac-man's daily tasks.
Tac-man already did it 😉
He did only play 21% of it.
This didn't really feel like a complete episode. We got roughly an 8 minute review that really didn't say much and then just abruptly ends.
Well ....old school I guess. I loved it!
There is not much to talk about the game itself
That's exactly how his earliest reviews went. Typically, he wouldn't even show the game's ending.
@@gjergjaurelius9798 But even in the castlevania series insulted more
@@akiradkcn then why make a whole video about it ?
The editing in this episode is weird, generally they cut a couple of seconds too late (idk if on purpose or not) but this time, the scenes showed up way earlier and we see james waiting befote comenting or reacting to what ead happening.
"The Slightly Irritated Video Game Nerd"
This game is a fever dream.

Did you say fever 🤒
I'm sorry but I'm going to have to ask you to step to there other side of the comment section .

I never thought that I’d ever need an AVGN Ska-punk intro in my life until now
Finally someone acknowledges it. Isn't it awesome?

This was a frequent rental of mine at Blockbuster. Used to enjoy watching Pac-Man's different reactions as I shot up the neighborhood with the slingshot. It was like being a part of a cartoon which was super cool in the 90's. Awesome episode Nerd!
3:02 They obviously ignored or didn't know about Dragons Lair.
I used to play BOTH Versions as a Kid.
The Minecart was REALLY difficult to deal with, but it was still fun to play.🙂
Have you discovered the secret minecart level?
me too, but for some reason I got higher percentage on genesis but never 90+ on snes
@@thetokutickler I recommend
7:27 well if theres going to be a third avgn game i think i know who one of the bosses is going to be.
the nerd didnt seem too angry tbh
Should've gotten some flower seeds, threw them on the table, and walked into the backyard kiddie pool with his pants down.
I love the little sigh he does, right before drinking the rollin‘ rock.
the "Look Look" thing is actually a running joke in my family because of how CONSTANTLY infuriating it was.
Hope he has fun making these. I imagine doing this for so long might be tireing
I feel he might call it quits once he hits the 20 year mark, or scale back how many AVGN episodes he makes in a year.
@@Metal7771 im cool if he slows down. Ive been watching since around 2009 or 2010 and have seen every epsiode. Hes been in my life so long it will be sad when he calls it quits but I understand.
I kinda feel he coulda talked more about the game...like maybe some of the strange interactions that happens to Pacman or something
This just seems like the game equivalent of those tom and jerry cartoons where they had to keep the crawling baby from dying

It really is

I wish AVGN would go back to the classic videos like the Sega CD and give it the proper treatment. Like I would have loved to see more gameplay. But also I want to see it explode
6:39 Pac Man doing the Nerd face.
I cant believe he made it to level 3, this game is incredibly frustrating
I remember when I was about 14 years old, I had broken my hand and I couldn't play anything. I had this game and I beat it playing with just one hand. It was maddening, entertaining, and the only game I was able to play for at least two months that went by very quickly. It's funny, it has surprising things if you let yourself be surprised.
4:26 I thought he called him a “lemon” 🍋 for a second there! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
If there's ever an official final episode, you absolutely positively HAVE to get Fred Fuchs on it.
We must come together to find this mythical creature.
Please.....thats too traumatic....to imagine life without AVGN?
All roads lead to Fred Fuchs.
@@A2Z83 I’m pretty sure there was another Fred Fuchs. Only because to me, it doesnt make much sense to do juat one game and then go back to doing movies.

This game looks great visually, and I like the idea of game that combines elements of games like Shadowgate and Lemmings. It may not be executed correctly but I like where they were trying to go. Sometimes when you try to Innovate you don't always hit a HR.
Let us all appreciate that James is still around and makes us happy with classic reviews like this one. My favorite youtuber since 2007. Thank you Nerd =)
oh man I still remember when we got this on the Genesis. Hours were invested!!!
Seems like the editing is off on this video. The flow is odd.
You know what this episode needed? Fred Fuchs, complete with him saying "Ain't I a stinker?" at the end?
4:16 Look ! A rolling rock !
The ska-version of the intro is super catchy!
It's not too often you see an AVGN episode of a game you've actually played before.
Ableit when I played it, it was the SNES version.
Had this game on SNES as a kid, and absolutely loved it hahaha. This video is going to rule. ps I'm still waiting for that math blaster review in 2021
Ayyy, This was a Favourite of mine
'Number of 'breakthrough' cases on the rise of L.A. County, but data show the vaccinated are still strongly protected
Ayyy, I have that!
Which Math Blaster? The original, Mega Math Blaster, or the 2000's Math Blaster? Personally I like Mega Math Blaster.
Ahhh, math blaster. I grew up on the ages 9-12 one, with all of the monkeys. That or the the one where you collect garbage in space.
Just seeing a new AVGN video uploaded put a big smile on my face, thanks for everything
I actually loved this game when i was a kid, i had no idea what to do, but i still liked it.
