The Angry Video Game Nerd is back with another episode of classic game reviews and rants. In season 4, episode 22, he tackles the often-overlooked NES title, Hydlide.

The episode begins with the Nerd introducing the game and giving some background information on its development and reception. He includes some clips from other gaming personalities who have reviewed the game, both positive and negative, before diving into his own thoughts on the game.

As he starts playing, it's clear that the Nerd is frustrated with the game right away. He highlights the confusing layout and lack of direction, noting that it's difficult to even figure out where to go or what to do. He also points out the clunky combat mechanics and lack of any compelling story or characters.

Despite these issues, the Nerd is determined to see the game through to the end. Throughout the episode, he shares stories about his own experiences playing Hydlide when he was younger, and how he was never able to beat it.

As the Nerd progresses through the game, he encounters more and more frustrating obstacles. He gets lost in mazes, struggles with the vague magic system, and gets frustrated by the overly difficult enemies.

Despite his frustrations, the Nerd doesn't hold back on the jokes and colorful language that he's known for. He calls the game a "big steaming pile of clunky jank," and describes it as "the gaming equivalent of a colonoscopy."

As the episode draws to a close, the Nerd makes his final push to beat the game. He comments on the repetitive soundtrack and laughable boss battles, and finally reaches the end of the game.

Overall, the Nerd's review of Hydlide is a scathing critique of a game that many gamers may not have even heard of. He highlights all of the major flaws and frustrations of the game, while also injecting his own brand of humor and personality into the mix. Fans of the Angry Video Game Nerd won't want to miss this episode!
