Seriously, that was good, and I get annoyed by faux angry geeks putting on lame demonstrations. He had great footage to back up his rants... great stuff.

i actually had fond memories of TMNT as a kid. yeah it was hard, but there were patterns, tricks and glitches you could use to get through the game.
and i actually enjoyed the underwater dam level where you have to defuse the bombs. i think i actually managed to get through it without losing any life a few times. not sure though... it was a long time ago.
anyway, this guy should be a special guest on angry-gamer.net. he'd fit in so well :lol

Don´t hit me for my bad english plase
For me the game in NES wasn´t difficult since the NES controller was better than a lot of PC controllers and NES version had less difficulty than PC AT counterpart.
For example, Bebop (the first boss of the game) needed twice of hits in PC AT version and some of the enemies that appears in the Bebop to Rocksteady part of the game in PC AT doesn´t appear in the NES version until a more advanced part of the game.
Pussies, they are the same people that say that MegaMan 2 and 3 are harder games, I believe that my little brother can beat them in a conteporary game.

as much as he is right about how hard TMNT is playing it at a young age made me such a better gamer.
i could actually play to pixel perfection thanks to that game.

I'm pretty sure that the sewer scene is actually in the third level and after the first scene with the small gap, although he showed the scene in the sewer first. When you first played it, you always thought you had the jump because why would a game developer insert a gap if you didn't have to jump. It was really annoying.
I think I beat the third stage 3-4 times but always died really quickly in the fourth level. I think they had no qa back in the days... this game would have been pretty good (great graphics, sound, big leves, not too repetitive) but the difficulty was incredibly flawed.

while he right about most of the games (except castlevania2), i think he tries too hard with his insults and rolling rock
ill give him an internet life of 1 month before he gets really annoying

This guy's great and I hope to see more from him in the future... watched the Karate Kid video, and he is so dead on. What a frustrating game... can make it to the final stage but then after that its just impossible, since the enemies are like impossible to hit.

Makes you want to play it again? That's like saying watching him play J&H makes you want to play it, period. No, he reminded me why I hated these games. I played bad games like TMNT, Roger Rabbit, Jaws, and Super Pitfall when I was a kid just because our family was poor and we would go long periods of time without new games.
I would never play any of these games today, but I still have fond memories of certain aspects of them. Super Pitfall and Jaws were the first free-roam games I ever played and Roger Rabbit directly led me into playing adventure games, most notably the Lucasarts ones.
THAT SAID: just keep your fond memories within and don't let them out. You'll only hurt yourself in the end.

That's great stuff, I remember the damn sewer level in TMNT, unbelievable. Also :lol at that pizza in the room with the collapsing walls, how the hell are you supposed to get that.
I'm totally with him on Castlevania 2, I totally think it's the worst of the older console games and I've never understood people liking it over a classic like Castlevania 3.

His face when he realizes he can just walk over the opening in the sewer level, instead of jumping, is priceless. His rant after that is well-deserved.

I think you and I are the only ones who found the dam level easy. The next level with the damn sewer jump (featured in his video) was what always didt it for me. I actually got to level 4 ONCE. Lame.Scrow said:

The tool-assisted time run of TMNT is pretty cool. I was laughing at the ending with the classic Engrish translation "You have excelled my skills" :lol. To get through the sewer the person just basically runs through everything and takes damage sacrificing two of the guys.
His Castlevania II review actually has some valid points. The gem thing was retarded.
What's interesting is that it has some really neat ideas that I would like IGA to try and do. Make a kind of living town and kinda string the world together. It does have some ridiculous "NES GAME" stupidity though. :lol at the last level having no enemies. But I like how actually FINDING the castle was part of the game. It's too easy now.
The TMNT review was absolutely gold. I hate games like that.

**** TMNT, I played that game for months on end, never reaching past the 5th or 6th level.
I'd love to see a review of Star Tropics. Talk about A) annoying as shit and B) making NO SENSE AT ALL. Let's use a magic ****ing yo-yo to kill things. And fat Hawaiian guys!

The Castlevania 2 review was awesome and incredibly accurate. I played this game for the first time back around 2003 when I was going through all of the Castlevania games sequentially, and it was one of the most frustrating gameplaying experiences of my life (you know, aside from the bats in Stage 6 of Castlevania 1). I finished it, but not without having to visit GameFAQs every hour to figure out why I was stuck.

I dunno about you guys but i never had that much difficulty in the dam part.
