Fer you nerdies out there like me, you should know, and hopefully love, the Angry Video Game Nerd. He released his review of the SNES Wizard of Oz game full on Youtube, although I have seen it before on the other website. He covers most everything. The most annoying thing to me are the graphics. From the title screen, to the setting in Kansas, and to the game play, nothing looks consistent. It’s like they just decided to switch from crayons to markers halfway through their story book. It’s terrible. Also, I find all the levels that have shrubbery in them, like the corn stalks and the bushes, are really just an eyesore.
The enemies to me are hilarious, like those hoping pumpkins. While the Lion is my favourite WoO character, Mike Matei, who played him in this video, over did it a bit. Perhaps that was the point.. He did spit a few funny lines, however.
Another thing the AVGN pointed out that caught me, was the fact that you can fall through platforms if you do not land precise. What fucks me up the most, is shit like that. Also, those invisible barriers in some games that keep you from going anywhere unless you’re at an exact angle while trying to walk through. FFFFFFF–
Shitty games are what make me appreciate the good games even more. And yeah, I’m a nostalgia fags. You can probably tell by my banner. BI
I might go to a 4PP Live Feed later tonight, so if I do, expect a little over view. Here’s the AVGN video for now.
