This guy is great. He's called the Angry Video Game Nerd. He has a series of videos where he goes and plays old school games from yesteryear.
As the theme song goes (yes, he has a theme song): "He's gonna take you back to the past, to play the shitty games that suck ass."
That statement isn't entirely accurate. The Angry Video Game Nerd doesn't JUST cover shitty games. But he isn't afraid (at all) to express his frustration and anger (he's angry, remember?) towards the poor decisions and generally shoddy workmanship involved in the creation of some of the games we used to play as kids.
Check out some his videos here at Cinemassacre. You won't be disappointed.
This guy brings back games I didn't think I'd ever see again, and expresses many thoughts and opinions I had about games I spent hours + hours playing. NES games Back to the Future, Friday the 13th, Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link, Bugs Bunny's Birthday Bash and Ghostbusters are a few of his 'targets'.
He doesn't just play and comment on the games, either. He'll often act out scenes in which he'll interact with characters from the games, it's a blast. An awesome mix of nostalgia, insightful commentary on how games should have been made / should be made, and entertaining humor.
