Roo takes on the irate gamers of the world in order to prove that just because a game (or two) is licensed after a hit movie, it doesn't mean it should be given a shoddy review.

In this episode, we have two reviews in one. First, the hidden gem of Aladdin for the Super Nintendo, which is then compared with the much more critically acclaimed Aladdin for the Sega Genesis. Which one wins out, the forgotten or the favorite? And what can be done to stem the tide of undeserving negative nostalgic reviews? With an epic speech, anything is possible.

Actually, the song in the first level was from the movie. I think it's called "One Jump Ahead". One of my favorite tracks from the movie.

[ClanOfTheGrayWolf]

Well... I think perhaps stage 1's music was inspired by "One Jump Ahead", but the two songs don't really seem to be the same. Maybe my ears are deceiving me, but I don't think so.

The Irate Gamer's video should not have more views than this.

[MrNorbert1994]

The 8-bit bootleg game far better than the original. :P

i LOVE how roo still does his own review while also taking time to point out how bad the irate gamers version actually was...

[deathman1021]

yeah, i dont hate the irate gamer but he tends to miss a lot of basic elements in games hes reviewd in the past that makes them much easier to play
