Angry Video Game Nerd (Episode 58)
Frankenstein
Back in 1880, it’s safe to say Frankenstein novel author Mary Shelley didn’t play video games… Yet even she’d tell you that if you stitch together a group of broken parts (terrible weapons, confusing level-design, impossible jumps) you end up with something pretty ugly that’s hated by everyone..
Fast forward 128 years and welcome to the second part of the 2008 AVGN Halloween special. This time devoted to Frankenstein (or y’know… his monster) and it’s diabolical appearances on home consoles.
With the aid of a very special-guest reviewer to share in the misery, The Nerd has dug-up three not-so-classics from the 8 and 16 bit era which are clunkier then the main protagonist they feature. He’ll be going green with re-appearing bosses, knock-off Street-Fighter moves and infuriating password screens. Enough to make anyone wish theyd never been born (again).
He’ll also discover that the monster he’s created isn’t just sat with him on the couch but embedded deep within his soul, forcing him to carry on torturing himself with terrible games until it destroys him. He should really have listened to Doctor Waldman…..
