Angry Video Game Nerd Season 2 Episode 11 The Simpsons

The Angry Video Game Nerd is back and he's taking on one of the most beloved franchises of all time: The Simpsons. In this episode, the AVGN explores a handful of video games that are based on the long-running TV series. Every Simpsons fan knows that the show has a history of producing merchandise that falls short of expectations, and video games are no exception. This episode takes the viewer on a nostalgic journey through the evolution of Simpsons video games, from the early days of the NES to the modern era of consoles.

As usual, the AVGN pulls no punches in his critique of these games. In his signature style, he delivers scathing commentary on everything from the graphics to the controls to the content itself. He explores some of the most notorious Simpsons video games of all time, such as Bart vs. the Space Mutants, Virtual Bart, and Bart's Nightmare. He also ventures into the more obscure territory of Simpsons arcade games and pinball machines.

Along the way, the AVGN enlists the help of several guest stars to help him investigate these games. He brings on a Simpsons expert to shed some light on the history of the franchise, as well as a pinball aficionado to offer his insights on the Simpsons pinball machine. In addition, the AVGN receives some unexpected help from an unlikely ally: the Nostalgia Critic. This crossover episode features appearances from both of these internet personalities, as they team up to tackle the worst of the worst in Simpsons video games.

Perhaps the most amusing part of the episode is the AVGN's assessment of the different levels in some of these games. From the painfully unforgiving jumping mechanics in Bart vs. the Space Mutants to the bizarre dream sequences in Bart's Nightmare, the AVGN gives a detailed breakdown of what makes these levels so frustrating. He takes issue with everything from the logic of the puzzle solving to the placement of the enemies to the sheer ridiculousness of the scenarios themselves.

Of course, no episode of the AVGN would be complete without some wild antics and over-the-top stunts. In this episode, he pulls out all the stops, including a hilarious impersonation of Homer Simpson, a mock TV commercial for a Simpsons game, and even an on-camera drinking game that involves taking a shot every time he dies in one of the games. It's all done in good fun, but it adds a level of entertainment to the show that keeps the viewer engaged and entertained.

Overall, The Simpsons episode of the Angry Video Game Nerd is a must-watch for anyone who grew up playing Simpsons video games or watching the TV show. It's a trip down memory lane that offers a humorous take on some of the most beloved and reviled games of the franchise. Whether you're a die-hard Simpsons fan or just a casual gamer, this episode has something to offer. So sit back, pour yourself a Duff Beer, and enjoy the ride.
