@SomeRandomIrishGuy ^^^troolll -_-

[boobiesareawesome200]

[xOniDotx]

@boobiesareawesome200  Satan*

[clownprince88]

Hope you can do a review of the Halcyon, probably the most rare of all videogame systems. I would consider it the holy grail of video game consoles, who knows if any even exist today.

It was so expensive nobody could buy it but i remember frothing at the mouth when i first saw it mentioned in electronic gaming monthly ( i think that was the name of the magazine from the 80s ).

Another excellent review, i enjoyed it

[clownprince88]

@clownprince88

Make that, the magazine was called Electronic Games, one of the best resources for videogame reviews in the 80s

[Ravenite1]

God damnit I knew the second he said "one would probably have to sell their soul" that some lame ass scene would follow with Satan that is basically pointless. And lol and behold here comes Satan parody... Predictable and gay.

[PaladinGear15]

@Ravenite1 then watch something else, this is youtube, it's not like videos are hard to come by on this website.

[ShY1CAS]

where's all da arcade footage....

[SilentHero2781]

Now al (smack) what the? (smack) mother f (smack)

[MinecraftianPony]

Rawr

[noyesnoyup]

In the early adds its says that the odyssey will work on any brand tv.

[624CMAN]

you could have said what the HAL

[rarguy34]

Rar

[ConnorsMobileChannel]

He cocks the gun really fast.

[majkeliusz]

The guns are very rare ?

I live in Poland, and we didn't have Odyssey but i got that shotgun. I broken it (i think one part felt off, but it work). Don't know where it is but i've got one.

[noname12327]

@majkeliusz that doesnt mean they arent rare -.-

[lookbehindyoumon]

Doesnt ,,rare'' imply it's hard to find? 30 seconds in the vid and I already spotted a stupid mistake. Cant wait to see the rest of the video.

[ManyFaces1999]

haha @0:44 funny

[metalpayne3]

Epic as in, my ass.

[awsumness123]

Thumbs up if you spazzed when you saw the gamecube in the backround. I know I did :)

[TheonlyZouga]

@awsumness123 I have that gamecube :), Although i think i only have extreme g 3 and zelda for it :/

[hazboy67]

awsome video dude



[jagarcia0705]

2:42 Gruppenfuehrer: [to Head Nazi, as they plummet off the bridge] I've always loved you.

Just in case anybody was wondering that line was from the super special awesome movie The Blues Brothers.

[313hummer]

4:44 sounds like avgn :O

[thealexpown]

Human error

[woskis9161]

OMG! JUST PULL OUT THE PLUG, IDIOT

[mcwooley]

I suspect the annoying-ass laughing dog from Duck Hunt has 1,160 accounts

[mcwooley]

3:15 Just to clarify, the Odyssey had no sound. But I do get his point, it's a boring game

[trevgauntlet]

so how much does the light rifle count?

[demonnogo]

@trevgauntlet On Ebay the sold some for around 300-500. Costly, yes. Hard to find, a bit. But he exaggerates it a bit.

[AmricanGir]

:D Gunslapped

4:26

[AmricanGir]

H.A.L

Hell's

Awesome

Luigi?

[gtafanboy32]

[cortezisbad11]

Maybe Hal is a slave from the evil gamer -.-

[cortezisbad11]

Maybe Hal is a slave from the evil game -.-

[StarGalaxy777]

[Mega911Gamer]

[booboowilson10101]

[Mega911Gamer]

@booboowilson10101 Herp a Derp

[booboowilson10101]

@Mega911Gamer Yup.

[silentf0e]

He didnt review cards 7 and 8 -.-

[TeamCritique]

You need to finish the series.

[typtyler]

you have a really deep sellion. it gives me the creeps.

[poisondragon100]

hal is a sith sent by dark vader to kill dave

[xxPatheticEmoxx]

I just wish he reviewed cards 7 and 8, though from the look of the other cards, I'm guessing it wasn't mind blowing.

[powerstar7274]

simon says to kill iirategamer

[sourman1231]

this is a copy of angry video game nerd almost

[guillaume958]

@sourman1231 i dont remember him doing 80s and video game history.....and they both video game reviewer



[mrxXnovaXx101]

@sourman1231 trol

[CodeGreen47]

Admit it, Ig's Oddyssey review is better than AVGN's. IG even presents us the rifle!

[dxmagma]

@CodeGreen47 Not even close.

[CodeGreen47]

@dxmagma What not even close? You mean AVGN's oddyssey review is better than IG's? No, definetly not.

[dxmagma]

@CodeGreen47 Yes, yes it is. Mostly because AVGN is able to accept the fact that the Odyssey came out so long ago that critiquing it by modern standards is A.) Impossible and B.) Retarded. Oh but this isn't a review, it's a "Retrospective" so the 2 can't really be compared.

[CodeGreen47]

@dxmagma Umm.. Ig's review explains the Oddyssey games more detailed that AVGN does

[dxmagma]

@CodeGreen47 Not really. "More detailed" is basically a shit ton of list gags. AVGN basically tells you what you need to know, what the flaws are and actually shows how they can be fun. On top of that AVGN doesn't blame the Odyssey for things it had no control over, like lack of graphics.

[sonicadx]

@CodeGreen47 I agree the guy your talking too is a fag id lol if he replied to this

[Rewayah]

Nice!!

Moving on to the next part! =D

[VonHendrixTV]

I laughed so damn hard at 4:30!!!! I thought i was gonna piss my pants!!!!

[norpolo]

oooooooooooohhhh

[343griffin]

This review is Epic!!!!!!!

[Alessandro32m]

good work

[AnimeandPSUfan]

ok ok ok ok ok ok ok the next time someone comments that he copied AVGN again will have there name in the death note!!! He did not copy him has anybody heard of the word inspiration the 21st century is full of it noting is fresh and original anymore you can only make something that's similar and better or worse. He made a video saying he got inspiration from AVGN so its y his reviews are similar. But cant we all just enjoy the videos instead of fighting plz.

[TheDopeyGamer]

@AnimeandPSUfan Last episode he stole a joke, it was like a paragraph, almost exactly the same.

[Trulsbk]

awsome

[RatedViciousBlaise]

2:39 wht ride of valkyries rock version is this?

[DarthUno]

EPIC REVIEW SINCE WHEN?! IT FUCKING SUCKS!!!

[LiviuJETIX]

man is the oldest gaming console insted the wii and psp or ps3

[batdanmn]

@LiviuJETIX Sounds deep, man.

[applejackman]

I love how people are arguing about the irate gamer being a rip off of avgn in the comments, and these aren't even his reveiw episodes.

[batdanmn]

@applejackman What can I say? IG haters are obsessed.

[CodyPlayStationGamer]

@batdanmn yes and apparently avgn doesn't give damn what irate gamer does, there are other gamer that review without incident and kinda do the same thing sometimes

[batdanmn]

@CodyPlayStationGamer Exactly.

[gadunka245]

lol satan XD

[TheEvalButterfree]

they always call those loght guns wrong eg that was a light replica of a SHOTGUN not a rifle

[batdanmn]

@97videogamenerd Dude, ElBri was joking. Chill.

[Xitaria]

Guys, He didnt rip off AVGN, Irate is mainly about new games, and AVGN is about old games, see the difference? They are both. great, so stop argueing

[batdanmn]

@Xitaria I agree with you. Saying that IG ripped off AVGN is an odd claim, because that's like saying Sonic ripped off Mario because they're both video games. They're just both video game reviewers. :D

[mazicscorp]

Wow, there is no doubt that this was stolen from AVGN

[walkerO97]

@mazicscorp How is this stolen from avgn.Avgn didnt even review the light rival,all he did was show it.

[mazicscorp]

@walkerO97 No I mean the entire thing with he console coming to life, down to the controllers as limbs. In fact the entire concept of a coincidentally angry gamer reviewing old consoles in a comedic sense is vaguely familier.

[walkerO97]

@mazicscorp Oh i see what you mean now.

[batdanmn]

@mazicscorp Nope. It's only natural for there to be similarities when two people review the same game or console because _they're reviewing the same thing_. Besides which, wasn't it AVGN who said: IT'S SATIRICAL. Nobody should care who reviews what first and when. There's no official signup sheet. If more than one person has seen the same video game or accessory, they can each express each other's opinions.

[batdanmn]

@mazicscorp What, is AVGN the only person who has the right to review the Magnavox Odyssey? You don't make any sense, kid.

[mazicscorp]

@batdanmn Perhaps I should explain further. Not only is he reviewing the console in coincidentally comedic angry faction, but he even did the same joke about a console coming to life and using controllers as appendages.

[batdanmn]

@mazicscorp "Comedic angry fashion" wasn't something AVGN has a copyright on. With that said, consoles coming to life isn't something that AVGN invented either. :D Or are you alleging that AVGN should sue the makers of Weird Science or perhaps he should also claim copyright on the story of Pygmalion and Galatea. :D As for using controllers for appendages, that has also been done before AVGN even came to be. You have no points. :D

[mazicscorp]

@batdanmn You just don't know a rip off when you see one, do you? AVGN has several reviews in which he reviews a shitty console (while being angry, mind you) and then it comes to life and attacks him in the exact same way. He's even using the same effect! It's a blatant copy of several AVGN videos. It's not a few of those things alone that makes it a rip-off, but it's the combination of those things in the EXACT SAME SEQUENCE!

[TheEvalButterfree]

@mazicscorp irate ripped him off belive whatever you want just go watch avgn and stop bitcing about these videos

[mazicscorp]

@TheEvalButterfree Ok, how about instead, you sod off and I continue saying whatever the fuck I want? Yeah, lets' go with that.

[batdanmn]

@mazicscorp LOL, so you can practice your freedom of speech but others can't? Please.

[mazicscorp]

@batdanmn I just said to leave me alone and go bug someone else. You can keep talking just, you know, fuck off.

[batdanmn]

@mazicscorp ITT: Mazic can't rebut my points. :D

[TheEvalButterfree]

@mazicscorp i would like to point the fact that you are arguing about a youtuber who prob doesnt give a fuck about you like its your mother

unlike you i like to watch youtube sometimes WITHOUT seeing losers like you argue

[mazicscorp]

@TheEvalButterfree You act like you've never seen an argument on the internet. I'm aware that AVGN doesn't give 2 shits about me, but it's called fandom dumb ass. Also, if you hate arguments so much, then why the fuck are you getting involved in them?

[TheEvalButterfree]

@mazicscorp LOL i love arguments cause i see people argue about useless stuff

but i dont understand why you comment on a youtubers video that you say you hate i mean do you even understand that what your doing helps his videos get video priority

[mazicscorp]

@TheEvalButterfree I didn't say I hate the video, I hate the fact that he copied AVGN.

[topple101forever]

@mazicscorp who cares you are saying only one person can make viral videos one makes racing videos one makes fail video there aren't enough subjects for every youtuber to dowithout somone doing the same

[mazicscorp]

@topple101forever I'm not saying that every game or console review is a copy of avgn. That's not even why its a copy. 85% PERCENT OF THE GAGS AND SHIT I N THE ENTIRE VIDEO IS RIPPED FROM AGVN. The vary NAME "irate gamer" even brings up some questionable similarities.

[topple101forever]

@mazicscorp so no one can have the same opinion only one can laugh at a movie if someone else laughs they will be trolled forever what next my president

[mazicscorp]

@topple101forever Okay, not once in any of my comments did I mention them having the same opinion being an issue. It's not one small insignificant similarity that makes it a rip off, it's the combination of a shit load of similarities that does!

[batdanmn]

@TheEvalButterfree Nope, I disagree. IG never really ripped AVGN. It's only the AVGN fanturds who believe that nonsense.

[batdanmn]

@mazicscorp Angry reviewing isn't copyrighted to James Rolfe. It's like saying Star Wars ripped off Star Trek because Star Trek came first even though they're both in the Science Fiction genre. Just because IG was angry too when he reviewed a console doesn't mean he ripped off AVGN, or else AVGN will have to sue every last angry reviewer out there, even those that came before him. Also, what sequence are you talking about?

[1tim64]

4:13 why didnt he just say "ill install you into a more Fun game system"

[Warriorz1979]

:45 is lol..that is too freakin hilarious good work IG love your show

[gtafanboy32]

@Warriorz1979 your right

[Ryz999]

I like this guy when he does stuff like this. The Irate Gamer just sounds so phoney in his acting.

[batdanmn]

@Ryz999 IG is no worse than AVGN when it comes to acting. :D

[ElBribri]

@97videogamenerd There are some things called "jokes" go search for them at wiki...guess what? by reading throughout YOUR comment, makes it obvious you must be one of those wannabe smarts who likes trolling, but dont worry,your attempt to look smart and not understanding it,is a joke itself,...you still have a looong way to go about knowledge.

[ElBribri]

That was one old school wii

[REBORNATIONstudio]

hal calls him dave cause hal is from "2001 A space oddesey". thats why.

[koopa120]

-The Irate Gamer's name is Chris

- HAL calls him Dave

what

[batdanmn]

@koopa120 ITT: Reference fail.

Go research some more, n00b. :D

[alexcool9595]

Epic!

*hit* what the *hit* mother*hit*!!

[Hroznys1]

Thumbs up for "The good, the bad and the ugly" theme.

[sephiroth8261]

<3 pointless killers

[sephiroth8261]

I HEIL HITLER! IM JUST WATCHING AND NOT HERE TO HATE!

[Jet5Hawk]

I can't believe people come all the way here to hate on IG. What no life assholes.

[keozeo]

@Jet5Hawk hahaha yeah. shame on them for having a opinion.

[1SWINZ1]

@keozeo you just dont get it do you! hes tryna say why the hell wud you wanna waste your time watching A video just to hate on it? its like, going to the cinemas and sitting there bitching thruout the whole movie, while every1 else is tryna just watch it and have a good time! this is how you people look to us!!!

[keozeo]

@1SWINZ1 well maybe someone sent them the video and they wanted to give chris bores a chance? they didnt like it because the humor ill admit is very stale at times. hes funny sometimes but other times it just sounds like everyone else. people leave criticism that is constructive, you bitch, the cycle goes on. if you dont like criticism dont address it. cause you address it like stephenie meyer after stephen king called her shit.

[1SWINZ1]

@keozeo constructive crit is fine, its when people just come to a video to bitch, do you not understand what i just said? im not tryna be disrespectful im just pointing out how retarded some people look. you cud dismiss it as ''having an opinion'' BUT why come to a video knowing your gonna have that opinion, THEN continue to bitch on about it! its just stupid, and it pisses everyone off who is tryna enjoy the video! that is what i was tryna get across.

[keozeo]

@1SWINZ1 yeah but i also made a good point. what if someone sent the person this video, the person was interested and gave it a chance all the way through. but since hes probably 12 and dosent understand any of it he bitches about it because "retro consoles suck" your right. that persons a fucking prick. but if they say "i dont like this video because..." and give pretty good reasons, thats fine. ive seen people bitch about those comments to though which pisses me off.

[Tiger200065]

0:40 what's the point of having a light rifle if yr dead?

[dapillnow]

@Tiger200065 hahhaha i know right

[josemanuel6314]

please tell me the song when he was killing the cowboys and the song from the natzis

[talkingbeatlehead]

@josemanuel6314 When he was killing the cowboys the song that was like an old wild west like song was from The Good, The Bad, And the Ugly. Which is my fav movie

[josemanuel6314]

@talkingbeatlehead thanks

[Bittergamer1886]

@josemanuel6314 Ride of the Valkyries.

[jono23butthead00]

[jamalaron]

[Tiger200065]

wouldn't the irate gamer have died of electracution?

[iModiPhones]

[wwe5lifeveryday]

u r awesome chris

[joshseera123]

@TheMaximumOverLord

I think Chris bores is funnier an avgn has better reviews, haha but I agree with your second statement

[WWERocksfool]

@KizJoy Yes his name is Chris Bores but what he was doing was a refrence to this movie (sorry i forgot the name of it) about this computer called HAL and this guy named Dave tried turning the thing off but it wouldn't let him because HAL had AI (Artifical Intelligence.)

[TheMaximumOverLord]

I think irate has better reviews than avgn and i think avgn is funnier... so STFU and enjoy

[WanaPlayDrums98]

@TheMaximumOverLord Rock on boy or girl

[DeMoN5377]

avgn is better

[Megas12TV]

LOL

[zero2559]

I got one question for everyone if you like avgn and hate the irate gamer why do you watch his videos? just wondering cause it makes no sense oh and also quit trash talking him saying hes boring if you don't like him don't watch him

[gradsssara]

UNPLUG THE F***ING TV!!

[ndingo]

[cordell1999]

@VideoGamez1 i like avgn more but this review is an exeption because it is more detailed

[clockwerk35]

lol u pissed off Satan, reminds me when bart said he would sell his soul 4 a car and then Satan(ned) appears and bart changed his mind lol

[Mortanme]

I saw an odyssey review by the angry video game nerd but it was deferent so...WTF is happening?

[theheadshot45]

- Because when all else fails, just add Nazis!

[lurch1289]

How did you figure this thing out? I didn't know they had Game Genie back then.

[Poodleinacan]

4:35 The "AI" should have been more monotonus...

[Poodleinacan]

Him : I already had the light rifle!

*plastic crack sound*

...Oooooh....aaaaaa....ok....I think it just broke...

[habbototaladdict45]

And so machine is defeated with man's simplest tool, the hand!

[SSCode09]

Hal and Nintendo.

[TheWollenstubby8th]

AVGN told me to tell you to get up off your fat ass and do something with your life

[brownsfan86345345]

@TheWollenstubby8th well then tell him i said fuck off

[123stephenno]

i made a custom doom overlay for this :) i use it with my freinz

[AtlasRedux]

Dude! You didn't even get BASIC FACTS straight!

And bashing on a system for being buggy? That it even still works is friggin' amazeing.

And complaining about old style and old hardware? IT'S OLD!

Review the systems COMPARED TO THEIR TIME!

Jeeeez.

[hugeirategamerfan979]

@AtlasRedux he rewiws the history of video gaming, so ofc he tries the oldest ones.If you weretn here for the history then for what? Just to waste more of your worthless life and hate him?

[AtlasRedux]

@hugeirategamerfan979

The hell are you talking about?

I never complained about it being old, I complained about IRATE GAMER COMPLAINING ABOUT IT!

Learn to read before you comment perhaps?

[sonicOneTwo]

Go back to hell where you came from, you boring avgn knockoff!

[TheDonandMurphshow]

great video, and i love the gun
