Guru Larry's First Gaming TV Appearance

[IggyKop]

Ah, Jamie Blueknapp, Ian Brush, what legends =P

[SamHardstyle234]

"Thith ith head to head,the game thuper kick off on the Megadrive the contethtansthhss lets thcan them in"

[PAC0SANCHEZ]

I'm american and I don't know anything bout football.

[legohalonascarfan3]

lol the rules were kind of cheap for the challenger

[GamingMill]

This is brilliant!

[TheLMan101]

"What game are you gonna play?"

"I'll attempt to kick the ball."

God, Larry. Even at 14, you were funny.

[gamevingw]

Why is it when I see a youtube let's player/gamer in a real life game show, they fail? Take ihascupquake for example...

[19822andy]

I ussed to drool at this programme when boxing legends of the ring was the featured game. Awesome boxing Sim

[Pelcurus]

If I ever see Matt, I will kick him. I'll kick him right in the balls. I swear on my Mother's grave, right in the balls. Then I will take his Yahtzee game from him and give it to you Larry.

Then I will seduce Violet Berlin and make her fall in love with me. We will get married. On our wedding night, as I'm choking her, I will tell her, that she shouldn't have distracted you while you were playing. You totally could've won if she didn't keep distracting you.

Don't worry, you will have justice.

[mantas1111000]

A game of Yahtzee? Trillby Quadrilogy, I hope. Although it is free.

[DLiberator78]

All of that effort just to win poxy Yahtzee!! Still it was good to see a younger Larry and Violet Berlin. I remember her hosting Bad Influence! with that Andy Crane fellow. Happy days.

[TheCMDesign]

@LarryBundyJr, loving those one liners, completely shut down Violet! hahahah

[dnm5555]

I miss the days when video games were played on tiny screens in giant biomechanical brains.

[kuqi320]

@dnm5555 Ah those were the days ;)

[whitee1992]

the love child of billy ray cyrus. nice do man!

[jonnil1997]

lame price

[HuwReesMusic]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!! xD

[AeonCommander]

Ye gods, you're 14 years older than I am. I had you pegged as younger than that. :P

[paulspydar]

Violet Berlin .= Phwaor!

[MrBluebirdsfc]

I bet that woman hates her life.

[countsmegula]

What football team do you support? I heard Portsmouth, which is who I support. :)

[xsandohs]

Aahhh violet berlin used to watch her on a game program on bravo she looked fine

[TheWiddaC]

Come on you reds!! That haircut is hilarious lol

[Halgarf]

Look at that mullet! Incredible.

[LarryBundyJr]

@Halgarf Hey, it was cool in 1992 :D

[blakdust3]

Dam you matt!

[goemonbeatsnaruto]

violet berlin, the ex presenter of bad influence and gamepad, she also did a few game appearence like the early micro machine's games (she is the one wearing a biker style jacket and her spikey short hair).

at least she and andy crane knows more about games than those morons at X-play.

[iQuaziRock]

This is gonna sound really gay but I don't care that larry lost coz he was actually, like, alive and had a sense of humour and emotions, whereas the other kid was like a robot or something :)

[CrimsonComms]

Larry, if you don't get back into Sumo Wrestling and record it for Youtube, I will actually find that Matt bloke's account and worship him as the King of Video Games Forever. Just to spite you.

[LarryBundyJr]

@CrimsonComms I might not be so good at it now I've lost so much weight :(

[CrimsonComms]

@LarryBundyJr Okay Larry, I'll let you off this time...

(Maybe some lightweight Sumo? Is there such a thing?)

[a1337turtle]

@CrimsonComms That's called Zangief 

[banjosolid]

@LarryBundyJr lol yeah right

[dooovde]

Ahh Kick off...2nd best football game ever created...just behind Sensible Soccer. Would take either of them over fifa or pes any day.

Trick with KO was to shoot and then try to curl it right in the corner. With penalties you had to just tap the button really quick or else you'd shoot over...like u did :)

Advice is a bit late but there you go.

[LarryBundyJr]

@dooovde I must admit my fave Amiga football game is Striker. Never a lover of the top down ones.

[Mondaynightmoron]

fifa 1900

[xRocketzFighterx]

aww so cute larry

[emojo1990]

yeah well, im gonna kick the ball.. YOU TOLD THAT BITCH!!!!

[Superloser2233]

Ahh bless love you mate.

[nAtespOOny]

Where's your souse accent theses days Larry?

[TheCosmicGypsies]

Dude this is magic! Love the attitude and the mullet. All round win.

Haha, kid wins yahtzee and is just like "shit, yeah whatever".

[TheBigboydaz]

i hope mat sniffer got a good kickin afterwards larry through towel in when the blond women said prize was a mountain bike. lol

[TheBigboydaz]

i hope mat sniffer got a good kickin afterwards

[MRKnowitallaboutRFOM]

Was your opponent that almighty "It's my Yard"?

[LarryBundyJr]

@MRKnowitallaboutRFOM It was his twin brother :D

[BJCHESTER]

So, basically it's Nick Arcade, but with games that are appropriate for competition?

[ODarkDragon360]

It must have been very exciting to be on a game show, I wish I could do that. XD

[paulspydar]

Brilliant! I was so routing for you to score! and I am so jealous I really fancied Violet back then when she looked like that, but shes still a cutie now..Classic telly mate, Sumo! ha ha classic!

[LarryBundyJr]

@paulspydar Lol, thanks dude :D

[leonadarr]

Awesome!

[Robster881]

You live closer to me that I thought possible O_O

[LarryBundyJr]

@Robster881 Oh? Where do you live?

[Robster881]

@LarryBundyJr St.Albans. Not exactly right next door, but closer than I expected.

[philbateman1989]

You still in Northwood? If so you live like 5 mins away from me lol

[LarryBundyJr]

@philbateman1989 Lol, where do you live?

[philbateman1989]

@LarryBundyJr Rickmansworth, literally right next to Northwood :P

[LarryBundyJr]

@philbateman1989 Nice! my brother lives there. in the flats where the old Tescos used to be.

[philbateman1989]

@LarryBundyJr That's literally 100 yards from my nan's house lol won't say exaclty what road I'm on but it's within walking distance :P Small world eh?

[lordewok]

that violet did a show on bravo, had massive juggs lol

[LarryBundyJr]

@lordewok That's right,  Gamepad. That was a pretty good show too!

[lordewok]

@LarryBundyJr Also loved you on that gaming channel on Sky, I remember it being you, and some other guy, forgot his name haha

[graafenblackpaw]

You were on Head to Head? Holy crap! That is EPIC! xD

[conortehgamer]

i bet that guy matt is a world of warcraft player

[JushinJosh]

Matt's a punk! Cocky fucker!

[agwellin]

Even as a kid, you could see his budding knack for screen presence. The other kid had no idea what to do in front of a camera. Larry owned the show, even if he lost the game.

[WinstonBiggleswade]

I wouldan't blame Larry I would balme the s**t game.

[MrTaylord28]

know thats what a gamer should look like!

[joe9320]

And now we are in 2000's Larry had put on weight, lost weight, and became celebrity.

[olllylol]

Geek

[gleefieldthe2nd]

the person you were playing against should have gone to specsavers :D

[smackknot]

Nice mullet Larry, looks awfully dreadful on you.

[LarryBundyJr]

@smackknot IT looked cool in 1992 :D

[BIGPIMPINUPDANYC]

That woman was horrible, a real pain audibly and visually.......

Don't know how you managed to stop yourself telling her to shut up.

[metalWeirdo77]

You have won yourself a game of Yahtzee!

....FFFFFFFFFFF....

Larry wins overall I think.

[Fryguy64]

I must say Larry, you have certainly become a much more eloquent speaker since you were 14! I laughed at "Nah, I 'ate it!"

[EpicMarathonUK]

@68000cpu Didn't know you had any user names that didn't contain the words "sonichu" or "cwc".

[craig134Gameplay]

awsome

[kinmanyuen]

holy shit! memories! i remember that overoptimistic lesbo

[WhoElseButMilo]

LARRY A TV STAR??? AWESOME!

[paxtofettel]

HOLY CRAP!! Its a female Billy Idol

[gamegenie42]

@paxtofettel id tap that =]

[TheInformativeGamer]

Wow, Matt had the personality of a stick

[Pokegod100]

This is real!? WOW!

[OMFGSLAPPYWAG]

do you play football? huh? no.

i fucking love you Larry i want your babies

[Tepic]

Hmm, a slim Violet Berlin. Yum.

[locke89]

Haha, you look like the chubby kid from New Kids XD

[SPINNYFUCK]

C'mon Matt, lol!

[Hindleyak]

Super Kick Off, pah. World Cup Italia 90 all the way!

"I'll attempt to kick the ball!"

You haven't changed a bit, Larry.

[alexwilsonNC]

Sumo wrestling. LOL!!!!!

[willblader50]

She s talking to u while Ur playing the game that must have put you off Ur face was like shut up bitch!!!

[LarryBundyJr]

@willblader50 Lol, well I think everyone knows how annoying it is when someone starts talking to you whilst you're playing a game :D

They stopped her doing it on the 3D version of the series (my second appearance)

[punkmonkey123]

The lisp on the host is killing me. Man, that is a ridiculously comical lisp.

[SuperDuperCrazyDude]

Larry looks like he's about to cry. It's sad HE SHUDDA WON FUCK EVERYONE BUT LARRY!

[LarryBundyJr]

@markrichardbehenna I auditioned (and failed) for the second series of gamesmaster (it was for a challenge on Joe and Mac on the SNES, but the final one on TV was considerably easier than the challenge they set me) but I was in the audience for part of an episode, boring as hell, I was asked to be on series 3 as well, but I couldn't the day they were filming as I was going on holiday. :( So sadly I never got to be on Gamesmaster properly

[MakotoShishio5]

@LarryBundyJr lol I was screaming at my PC "COMEON LARRY!! BEAT THE MILKIBAR KID!!! BEAT HIM!!". I can't help but feel that female put you off your game she said like 4 words to the other kid i was not amused.

[LarryBundyJr]

@MakotoShishio5 Well he had the personality of a brick, so it was hard to keep a conversation running with him :D

So I got it >.>

[blowenfuse]

Ahhh Violent Berlin the mistress of gaming! 

[DarkShadowAlec]

yahtzee?? wow what a prize

[IHATEGAYFAMILYGUY]

wow I was born in 1993 when Larry was on TV? why can't I born earlier?

[fdgsa]

"yeah, I beat the teacher"

pure genious

[ratchet132]

Did I hear sumo wrestling?

[LarryBundyJr]

@ratchet132 You did indeed :D

[ratchet132]

@LarryBundyJr Amazing.

You must have been a pretty tough 14 year old!

[ashguy3000]

Man that presenter is so annoying!

[algorithmae]

Awesomest show ever.

[LarryBundyJr]

@algorithmae Lol,  thanks bud :D

[rightstyle668]

the screens are tiny

[LarryBundyJr]

@rightstyle668 It was a nightmare, they were tiny 7" screens. and having to play split screen games on them was a nightmare!!!

[dudefather]

You need to find Matt and have a rematch!

[LarryBundyJr]

@dudefather He lives/lived in Clacton on Sea if I remember.

Wonder if he's still there?

[kuqi320]

@LarryBundyJr I live in clacton and my names Matt, i hope its not me!

[LarryBundyJr]

@kuqi320 Have you ever seen this other Matt in Clacton though? :D

[kuqi320]

@LarryBundyJr I know another Matt in Clacton but I know its not him :)

[kuqi320]

@LarryBundyJr Ha yes I have!....and no its not him :/

[Lucas3015]

Awesome as kid and awesome as grown-up! Ahahaha!

[LarryBundyJr]

@Lucas3015 Aw, you speak too highly of me Sir!

Unless you meant the other guy :D

[toxic996]

mullet :D ^^

[LarryBundyJr]

@toxic996 Hey, it was 1993, hey were cool then! :D

[toxic996]

@LarryBundyJr Totally ;D

[animeandrew1]

Damn, i wasnae even born yet, i do miss the mega drive though. ^^

[RaynaDJ]

christ i cant believe that violet berlin haha! i was only 2 when this came out. god the 90s were weird.

[geewizzkids]

Ha! The other kid seemed like he was super camera shy but Larry rocked it all throughout! Good show man!

[etocadet]

the funniest part was when she asked "do you play football" and your little chuckle said it all "take one fucking look at me and take a guess"

P.s im a big bastard aswell

[LarryBundyJr]

@etocadet Lol, thanks! Any involvement of fat children in football, they always place them in goal, as they some how assume being larger gives the ball less area to go in the net :D

[etocadet]

@LarryBundyJr but i was actually good in goal all a goalie needs is reactions and balls and being a gamer i got one of those the other you just get by realising grass cant hurt u by jumping on it

[ShadyHitchhiker]

Haha, two seconds into the intro I knew it was going to be Head to Head with Vwilot Berwlin.

Gratz on winning the mountain bike, I'm not sure I ever saw anyone pull that off.

[GigaBoost]

I wish that short haired bitch would shut up and let me watch the god damned video game.

[LarryBundyJr]

@GigaBoost LMAO!!!

[teckademiczlol]

that fucker..oh well

[LarryBundyJr]

@68000cpu LMAO, thanks for sharing that with us :D

[zmeier01]

Awww you were way cuter and more likable than that other little bastard. I'm confused though, was the Yahtzee a consolation prize or did it go to the other kid?

[LarryBundyJr]

@zmeier01 the other kid got it :(

I never got anything that day.

[zmeier01]

@LarryBundyJr That's so sad! Well, you can take solace in the fact that Yahtzee sucks and that kid probably never so much as opened it.

[OutOfMidian]

What a mullet!

[SqueeksoAo]

@68000cpu Back in the day I have a porn mag called Knave. In one issue they had a "sexy man" who was the spitting image of Guru Larry, tits out, huge hard nI CANT DO THIS ANYMORE I JUST CANT

[Flamzorz]

Oh Larry your a legend

[Hepathos]

Aw yeah! Yahtzee!

[Qp0wer]

awe yer so cute

[LarryBundyJr]

@Qp0wer Aw,  thanks ^_^

[Donutman960]

lol nice mullet

[ClydesRevenge]

yahtzee? Well we know who really lost...

[CyC10n345]

BlaZer91: WOW I bet it was impressive to play well against the champion.

[POshkidney42]

For those with black and white television liverpool are in the red strip.

[Snotnarok]

Wow could they have stuck the players with a smaller screen? Topped off it's shoved in a giant brain

[Razor61289]

Great stuff!

[evilguy0]

Violet Berlin? Red London? Blue Paris? Deadly Glasgow?

[IchHeisseNinja]

LOL LARRY I GOT SO MUCH MORE RESPECT FOR YOU THAN I ALREADY HAD hahaha xD legend(L)

Your foe looks...interesting. he cheated to beat you, its obvious -_-''.

He shall be destoryed.

[Alaron251]

Dude, you were an awesome 14 year old.

[sora000111]

I love how you were still as blunt and sarcastic as a child.

[daveKoRnfan]

i hope you kicked his ass in a sumo match backstage after it lol

[vestibual]

Lol sumo wrestling!

[cubs2084]

Nice mullet

[johan11222]

matt is a noob it was peneltis not goals

[thespeg]

Hating football along with being told the wrong controls... i smell a setup =p

[expotemkin]

I bet losing all that weight has made you a terrible sumo wrestler =/

[EdwardElric555]

What was it with the 90s and the mullet, I had one too but it looks so stupid in retrospec?

[pjb453]

i bet shes a lesbien

[Chipsturs]

what year was this Larry ? and it should have been best out of 5 on penaltys lol.

[willsoe]

Heehe they get awarded a bike for playing video games.

[TheAccount2econd]

What ever happened to Matt Schaeffer?

[JoeMomma2455]

Your wee face when you lost Larry, it was so adorable :3 lol

[titch2000]

God I miss Violet Berlin...anyone know what she's up to these days?

[Highretrogamelord89]

@titch2000

She currently works as a writer and science communicator for major museum projects such as The Royal Observatory in Greenwich, and sometimes appears on Jones's motoring podcast "Gareth Jones on Speed".

Berlin lives in Stoke Newington with Jones and their two sons.

[AdamDuffield]

"Do you play football?"

"Nah I hate it"

:LL I loved how shocked she was. Yeah, boys can dislike football you know xD

[TheBiscuitAddict]

nice mullet

[28steryan]

VIOLET ALWAYS... AND STILL DOES, GIVE ME A BONER, DID YOU GIVE HER ONE AFTER THE SHOW?

[younghastings1066]

why is she askin questions while they are tryin to play the game?? will women ever understand games?

[Funzebub]

I want a rematch, hahaha. It shouldn't be too hard to find his dox, muhaha.

[dakingofblingg]

also, that othre guy looked like a right nobhead 

[dakingofblingg]

"Do you play football at school?"

"No,i hate it!"

i don't know why, but i pissed myself when u said that!

[L1nKo64]

How old was violent berlin when she was doing Game Pad then?

[Fedaykin24]

MMMMMM Violet Berlin!

Well they don't play football at Merchant Taylor in Northwood....Cricket and Rugby school!

[plopkinggamer]

oh man this is great, do you play football NO! what do you play, i hate football

[GamingAwesome1]

I believe it was stated in the old video's description that the presenter told him the wrong controls for the penalty shoot out.

I still find it amusing that Guru Larry has been contributing to the British gaming scene looong before I even existed.

[HarryPartridge]

Matt looks like such a poindexter. I love this video Larry but seriously we need to hunt down the little worm and exact some revenge.

[Axelander9999]

Woohoo, 14 year old, Larry! Matters not that you lost, Larry! Even though you lost to that nerd.... At least you didn't lose anything. Seriously, Yahtzee?!
