Frankenstein - Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN)

[@Broockle]

It's nice when you realize there's an AVGN video you missed.

[@Fujiga11]

exactly why im here right now....dont know how but i guess i missed this one

[@iliasemmanuil]

I still don't understand. I thought I've seen everything... Ass. Fuck. Baaalls.

[@VoodooRaisins]

***** Me three. WHAT'S GOING ON?!

[@jamesatkins6316]

Are there still new episodes or is this series over???

[@jamesatkins6316]

Gotcha .

[@shawnbateman79]

"Death Guy" and "Mr. Kill" should have been bosses in the AVGN games.

[@BrolyLSSJ01]

Fred Fucks tho.

[@issacthemagus9073]

+Shawn Bateman Hopefully they'll be in the sequel

[@Bauglir100]

+Shawn Bateman Mr. Kill is actually a henchman in the Bond movie "Die Another Day".

[@shawnbateman79]

***** I wasnt even aware of that. Pretty cool.

[@cryingwithrage]

+Shawn Bateman my favorite part in avgn

[@StandardGoose]

The manwolf was originally a wolf who got bitten by a wereman, so it makes perfect sense.

[@SparkleWolf404]

Wait "were" means "man" so it's a "Manman"? (then again with that logic werehog means manpig....)

[@melonlazers330]

Loonmight The Coyote manbearpig

[@StandardGoose]

In a way, the real wereman is us.

[@StandardGoose]

***** I don't know what that is but it sounds sexy.

[@SOIBand]

But what is someone is bitten by the Wehrmacht? Oo.....mind blown

[@TheRetroPolarBear]

"Game Bad" -Frankenerd Rest In Piece...

[@johnnyweissmuller5559]

Don't forget that Nerd died along with him.

[@Daxinar]

@@johnnyweissmuller5559 The Nerd can't DIE. He merely reforms out of the universes base code and continues his never-ending quest to conquer all shitty games.

[@errorbirdesther]

@@Daxinar that sounds oddly poetic

[@victoriaasenjo524]

James’ dedication to beating Frankenstein, even as he’s being strangled by FrankenNerd, brings to mind the reputed last words of Archimedes of Syracuse. It’s said that as his city was being sacked, the elderly mathematician implored the soldier about to strike him down: “Wait until I have finished my [math] problem!”

[@NektariosMilanis-l9x]

ANGRY VIDEO GAME NEEEERRRRDDDDD! (cries) why did you have to go?

[@iamjoeblo102]

The AVGN rock song at the end was amazing.

[@mattmorrison4494]

I think I'm most partial to the "club/techno beat"🔊 version myself.😋 There's a # of versions of the song🎶 that are really ❄😎. Another 1 of my fave is the "Metal🎸" version(s).

[@ElginAlway]

I wonder if it’s done by PhycoStick?

[@Yixdy]

I believe you mean METAL

[@damightybenstein]

@@ElginAlway Who tf is "Phyco"Stick?

[@Kugawattan]

"This time I'm just gonna try to _inch_ my way to the edge of that lilypad- oh *FUCK, it goes **_AWAY_**!*" I just adore the way he says that.

[@EvelynJevilyn]

It doesn't annoy me when I accidentally reset my watch history and have to rewatch AVGN episodes again, because they never get old.

[@JungonJun]

I did the same thing =D so many good laughs

[@errorbirdesther]

Agreed Avgn is timeless We need to put him in a museum

[@matthewmckee3762]

I think he might be a bit peeved if you did that. Museums don’t usually let the exhibits leave.

[@HadeanSting]

"Oh there's this monster you gotta fight - Oh! There's the monster, fight him!" Had me in tears. XD

[@rogue7723]

I felt the same at "Fuckenstein"

[@SpyHunter89]

AVGN: "How 'bout 'Death Guy' or 'Mr. Kil'?" James Bond: "Now there's a name to die for."

[@slimmsing]

This right here gentlemen is AVGN in his prime, great fucking episode.

[@HEYitzED]

Agreed. I miss when he was actually angry.

[@badfoo3651]

NorthjerseyMelee For some reason this is my favorite review of his

[@treehann]

This is a great review because the side character (the monster) is fucking hilarious, it's a nice concise video, the game has epic difficulty, and there's some great laughs. Just a tightly written, quality video :)

[@DOSRetroGamer]

I'd say the editing is top-notch too. Especially the fight at the end must have been a buttload of work.

[@nick56677]

Before the alcoholism took over

[@ginnrollins211]

When Frankenstein's monster is wearing sunglasses he looks like Lou Reed.

[@jackgold7340]

*frankenerd

[@TheGaymos]

You know shit gets real when a series/show's theme starts playing near the end

[@AwesomeShocker]

Mister Kill. That's priceless.

[@SOIBand]

Deathguy is pretty funny too ^^

[@AnimaxRules]

I LOL'd my ass out with that one !!!! XDD

[@AwesomeShocker]

AnimaxRules Next time when someone makes a game I want those as the enemy names.

[@thomaswille3294]

That brings back bad memories.One of the villains in James Bond's Die Another Day had that name. Bond replies "A name to die for".

[@OfficialJab]

Thomas Wille How could they make it any worse?

[@MBRSims]

I love the fight scene with the monster at the end. One of the best AVGN moments for sure. The awesome remix, the editing, the crazy atmosphere, the expressions on the Nerd's face - it's all peak AVGN.

[@Dinosorable]

This is one of the most kickass AVGN episodes, I've ever seen! And Julio's theme song cover that plays, when AVGN fights Franken-Nerd at the end, is kickass, too! :D

[@memberofchat2825]

the avgn videos are timeless classics they never get old

[@simonk897]

Still, one of the best youtube video series ever. Thanks, Nerd. I've enjoyed these series since I was a 15 years old, and now I'm 25! and I'm still watching it over and over again! Futhermore, it is still really enjoyable. I sincerely appreciate you. Hope I could watch these series until the day I die XD

[@grfrjiglstan]

So, I never realized, but the descriptions for these videos are actually really detailed and complex!

[@PrizmYT]

Franken Nerd is the name of the monster, not the scientist.

[@niggeman5896]

Really? What's the scientist's name then? 🤔

[@SparkyDaHedgehog]

Something about the Ganon bit and 7:15 just cracks me up. It's perfect.

[@gertrudemcfuzz74]

Start the game dead: PHUCKEWE LOL!

[@tatovindel]

Thanos of Titan ;-;

[@timmytohns5479]

+Serhat The Nintendo Player I found Captain Obvious.

[@serigneo]

That Frankestein for the NES looks really cool and eerie. I was thinking about Dark Souls as my closest reference in dark fantasy. I may give it a shot.

[@treehann]

I agree, it’s one of several games that James played over the years which unexpectedly caught my attention with its neat aesthetic.

[@TrueHolyRune]

The ending is so cool. Love that rocking tune.

[@Gaminggod1997BAGR]

start with no weapons: KARATE

[@Bauglir100]

Start with worse controls: CHAMP

[@bradcalnan7779]

I love how he is able to make a boiler look like it belongs in a mad scientist lab

[@DouglasQuaid999]

Frakenstein? Never heard it spelled like that before. It''s FrankenSTAIN!

Oh God, not the Berenstein bears thing again...

One of the best AVGN eps ever.

[@turoniner]

"Oh there's this monster u gotta fight OH THERE'S THE MONSTER"

[@iCach0]

Best AVGN theme version ever!

[@MarMaxGaming]

Man you can tell all those cuts and editing took for freaking ever. What an absolute beast.

[@KaptainKat23]

the only reason in Mary shelleys frankenstein he looked like uncle fester was because that's how he looked in the 1990s movie XD

[@dreamlandnightmare]

Played by Robert Deniro. One of the strangest casting choices in history.

[@AcidWords1]

And the version that he most resembles the monster in the book.

[@tysonsheinin6900]

This is a terribly underrated episode

[@StigMurcielago]

Ah, I was wondering when he was going to mention that the Monster's name was never Frankenstein.

[@grfrjiglstan]

It's also in the description.

[@raddivant8840]

Metaluna Zombie

[@gravesidepoet5405]

Considering the monster thinks of the Dr. as his father it isn’t unreasonable to think his surname could be his

[@rustyjones7908]

Intelligence is knowing Frankenstein was the name of the doctor. Wisdom is knowing Dr. Frankenstein WAS the monster.

[@akiradkcn]

@@rustyjones7908 nice one

[@terencegraves6262]

Dat password "PHUCKEWE" That should be the password to get rid of hit detection, missable platforms, one hit kills, too tough bosses, no continues, you jump backward when hit and to turn on time in the game, so that you have to beat the stage in a certain amount of time.

[@lqu]

i dont get the phuckewe joke. i mean, i get the phuck part, but what's the ewe?

[@gianpaguiligan1358]

LEGOMAN 2 its a play on word Phuckewe into “fuck you”

[@megaemulators2776]

12:03 Just realized that PHUCKEWE meant F--- You

[@codythompson9973]

Sailor Sedna Phuck ewe Fuck ew Fuck you It works both in concept and practice.

[@GiordanDiodato]

It did say "ALMOST invincibility"

[@drhploveboat]

2:40 that just cracks me up, and the fact that the mask is hanging off his face makes it even funnier!

[@LemonTree9280]

I love James' old school rants on passwords

[@bobdeinterlace]

there's this monster you gotta fight OH THERE'S THE MONSTER FIGHT HIM!

[@NefariousDreary]

Lol, I love that metal theme playing while he struggles with the monster. XD

[@WhatsReel]

i love that the fade between the title card and the episode match each other

[@russellevans7102]

WOW, I like the metal version of the intro song at the end.

[@TheMattypoo21]

Possibly the greatest Halloween theme opening ever.

[@shasta4501]

3:33 Hipster Nerd: Making "Duty" jokes 2 years before Wreck-It Ralph did.

[@JSeedProductions]

The last few seconds, where he wins but the tv explodes, makes me crack up for some reason.

[@marksharp3185]

The fact that the AVGN, at the end of the video, is more concerned about beating the game than being attacked by the monster is freaking hilarious to me! 😂

[@evlinalw325]

Always love the Arnold yell during the end fight

[@finnylettuce8566]

12:52 always get chills at this part

[@kurackurackurac]

The ending metal & fight scene is just legendary.

[@faurier]

I need a full version of the AVGN Theme Metal cover.

[@errorbirdesther]

Same

[@humanconvertile]

"Come on, you Fuckin Fuckinstein!" This is what I'm taking away from this XD

[@Daneoid81]

Holy shit, I found an AVGN episode I haven't seen before, I've struck gold!

[@Psiros]

9:05-9:09 Death Guy and Mr. Kill need to be a duo boss combo in the next AVGN-inspired video game.

[@apollorock3r244]

0:36 The moment he says “It’s alive! It’s alive!”, I thought he was going to say “How about it’s ass! It’s ASS!” from the Halloween review. XD

[@anonymousxiii4780]

13:05 anybody know which version of the AVGN theme this is. Because it sounds epic and would listen for a long while

[@timmytohns5479]

+Keyner Bonilla Probably the rock remix.

[@Burn_Angel]

Yeah, but the Punk version is better in my opinion. Can't recall in which specific episode it plays tho.

[@domidium]

If he thinks the codes from game genie for this game was bad, he should see the collectable skulls in the halo games.

[@domidium]

Riley Higgs Granted there are some exceptions, but for the most part the halo skulls would piss him off.

[@randomdude-4353]

After seeing that Nerd beat the final boss of Frankenstein while being choked out we can officially say that he is a master of the NES

[@janehuskmann1914]

I always thought the bird was a passage to another level. Ergo, I never completed the first stage. Seriously, most people expect a bird that carries you to be either said passage, a shortcut, or either of the Legend of Zelda bird species: Loftwings in Skyward Sword or Cuccos in most other 3D Zelda games. WTF were the creators of this Frankenstein game thinking?!

[@DrDK144]

"It's alive! It's alive!" (If you remember his Halloween episode) "No, it's ass! It's ass!"

[@stargazer3424]

This and Nightmare on Elm street are still my fav Halloween AVGN eps

[@probe26]

I'm a little pissed that you called the "Swordmaster" a random guy. respect.

[@Zakkleberg]

I'm putting forward the idea that every Frankenstein's monster is "A Frankenstein". Think about it. Each monster is essentially his child, and children inherit their father's surname. So it'd be like "And this is my corpse child, Bobby Frankenstein". He *is* a Frankenstein

[@shaneuniverse4965]

Fun fact! The monster in Frankenstein had a name: Adam. And since the doctor considered him his son, his full name would be Adam Frankenstein. So the monster can easily be considered "Frankenstein".

[@MegaCrocosaurus92]

I can't get enough of that bit with the Game Genie codes haha. Also the "monster fight 'em" bit was very Good Bad Flicks for some reason haha.

[@EarnestWilliamsGeofferic]

That ending tune rocked!

[@UltimateGamerCC]

the avgn theme metal version kicks ass! cant get enough of it

[@rustyjones7908]

My brother got me The Adventures of Dr. Franken when it came out. I don't talk smack about gifts, but the Nerd's complaints about the controls are spot-on. It's a shame though, because the level design was pretty neat, with lots of emphasis on exploration and lots of neat little details. Also, all the monsters in the game had lots of personality and whoever the artists are really did a great job. Not to mention that it has a really kicking soundtrack. But as the Nerd once said, the most important part of the game is being able to play the game, and the controls were slippery and awkward. I can't imagine most people putting in the effort to master it.

[@ToothlessGTI]

You're so spot on! I see what could've been a fantastic game but the controls hinder it greatly. Such a shame, but worth a play for anyone looking for off the wall SNES games!

[@SonVegeta23]

Mary Shelly's Frankenstein on SNES gives a literal meaning to "shortcut"

[@surgingchaos]

The rant that starts at 10:00 is probably one of my favorite AVGN rants. Seriously, James just completely nails how fucked up long passwords and limited continues were back in the day. If you're going to have a password system, do it like Bubble Bobble did: only 5 characters, and only A-J are used as letters.

[@trevorblue4531]

But sometimes long passwords were necessary 2 restore your exact progress, like in WIZARD of OZ!

[@bra1nc417d]

The ending has the best version of the theme song I've heard yet. Gotta love the metal.
