Battletoads

One of the best games in the NES library, Battletoads had only one major flaw... but don't tell Corey that.

Great Episode

but seemed a little short, but I could watch AVGN all day. Also, I loved it at the end where they had the outtakes, always a good laugh to see people break character.

Awesome

I had the exact same problems when I played with my brother. Good stuff to see it again after all these years.

How amusing... is that all you can muster?

super spiffy

Great video as usual. Could've been a lil longer

He summed it up perfectly. A

He summed it up perfectly. A classic from an era when challenge was desired and Big N wasn't worried about making it accessible to as many people as possible by making it so a toddler could win.

The game was very hard, but full of greatness and win.

I have only one problem with that review; They keep referring to a couch when it's clearly a futon.

Kyle finally came out!

I think it's awesome Kyle was actually in the game review. I still remember how games were back then, much more challenging then they are now. Back then, you didn't care that much about the ending, just that you were able to beat the game!

Are you ready to be disciplined?

Lol x 1000!

Very good ep, just like I expected.

The part of the pause screen was priceless.

Tell me about it...

The pause screen dance definitely deserved a lolazer!

awesomeness

I loved this review, it was short and to the point. Still I wonder how awesome it would have been had a cameo from Corey coming through and destroy the Nerd's copy of the game, and getting his reaction to it.

That would be funny.

Corey vs. AVGN. I'd like to see that. It could be like, "AVGN Battletoads: The Alternate Ending." :D

That episode was hilarious

That episode was hilarious.:)
I liked Kyle's participation in it.
He deserves that.

Battletoads was a great game but hard as hell.

And just for your information, James, there are no Siamese bulldogs.;)

Now excuse me while I go hum the Battletoads pause theme...

Corey: Did you say, Battletoads?!?!?!?!

I do not in any way speak for Corey...
Don't kill me Corey.

Lol awesome episode as usual I have wanted to DVD for AGES but I gotta get some more money in my account first.

Hilarious

That's me and three other friends taking turns playing 2-player Battletoads. I'm surprised you guys even made it to level 3!

Short review though. My personal opinion is that the review could've been 4-5 minutes longer at the end, focusing on how shockingly hard single-player Battletoads is.

Is it a coincidence...?

That just a week or two after that AWESOME "Corey hates Battletoads" vid that the AVGN would do a vid on the very same game?

You should totally make a follow-up vid. That was one of the funniest ones I've ever seen on screwattack.

And the AVGN video was a nice change of pace. We haven't seen Kyle in the vid since.... Spider-Man I think. I always loved his songs. Especially his take on Spider-Man and Nintendo Power - in fact, I have them on my ipod!!

It was a good review. I have

It was a good review. I have a couple of complaints though. Why was it so short? How come he didn't get to the other BattleToads games?

An ok episode

I thought it was too short and really didn't actually get into the game very much. I liked the extra stuff with Kyle but it seems they did that at the expense of actually covering the game. It was still entertaining but I would have like more in-depth about the game.

And I must admit I agree with Corey, I REALLY hate this game. Great graphics, even great gameplay, but they really screwed up with the difficulty. They should have put in an option for difficulty levels, although levels like the speeder one I'm not sure it would have helped since it was sometimes almost just plain luck whether you hit the ramps correctly or not.

Kyle FTW!

In comedy terms, for me this was one of the best AVGN videos that I have seen to date. And the adition of Kyle in a more active and envolved way was just perfect. Notice in the end, he seens even more pissed then James xDD

Now the only little problem: it was kinda short. You could have showed other versions of Battle Toads in other consoles for example.
But aside from that, it was just plain awesomeness :)

It's nice to see Craig is...

...posting this on the front page again and on time. AVGN deserves no less.

Anyways the ep was amazing. I love when James does stuff with Kyle. His Spider-Man review is still one of my absolute favorites because of the hilarious interaction between the two. The best part of this one has to be the flashbacks with Kyle. Gut busting stuff.

Let's see Corey review this game!

I want to see Corey review this game and give it the hatred-filled blast it really deserves! Call it Angry Video Game Corey!

Corey officially became my favorite Screw Attack talent on the day that I discovered that someone else out there hates this game. Why... WHY do people like this game? Challenge is one thing, but this game spanks your ass, even if you have Game Genie.

That's not challenge! That's retarded cheap! This is the game that sparked my hatred for Rare. Still, at least you aren't freakin' collecting bananas!

Lol

LOL, that made me laugh quite a bit. That was another great AVGN review.

I personally think that you should include Kyle in more of your reviews, especially if you decide to review games with multiplayer capabilities.

I think this is my favorite episode of AVGN in a long time!

The transition from the theme song right into the episode was freakin' awesome! And I loved the whole bit with Kyle. Great stuff, there!

Very funny episode! Great work, James!

Return to form!

Im not saying the newer episodes have been bad, far from it, but it just seemed like it was getting a bit repetitive albeit still funny. This is the most i have laughed at AVGN in ages and Kyle is brilliant.

Excellent

Such a great game.

I honestly hope you plan on putting the bloopers at the end of your videos from now on, they're pretty damn funny.

it is so true me and my

it is so true me and my friend tried and we didn't get far

Battletoads is the shit!

Battletoads is the shit!

hours upon hours of old-school awesomeness...

aahhh... fond memories of this game kicking my ass into the wee hours of the morning

Battletoads could've easily

Battletoads could've easily been one of the best games ever, but it had to be ruined by retarded shit like that goddamn racing part and the stupid bending snake that you have to climb around on! fdkjljafklagd

Battletoads Blows!

This game isn't good, it's horrible. I just spent the time using savestate to get to the end of this game on the genesis and it's cheap death after cheap death, getting hit by things off screen, mis-jumping and dying cause the screen only lets you see 1/4 of the screen in front of you, insta kill enemies and bosses and just so much piled on difficulty bs that when I finally got the the end....it was the worst ending I've ever seen in my life. The Condor guy says something about bottling The Dark Queens Charisma so they could make a fortune then....SEGA logo....BS!!! I saw the NES ending too. it's better but it's still bs for all the things you have to go through to beat it. This is THE most over rated game I've ever seen in my life. What is wrong with all you people who say this game is good, ARE YOU ALL NUTS!? I'd rather floss my rear with barbed wire than play this game again! It's a piece of CRAP!! They made this game to contend with the TMNT and it shows they put little to no thought into the actual game design other than to keep you playing as long as possible and not to see the ending.

YOU CAN BE KILLED BY RUBBER DUCKIES!!!

WTF!!!
