History Awesome / TheAngryVideoGameNerd

* And all of this is topped with his final battle against TheNostalgiaCritic where the two battle with fists, firearms, ''fireballs'', lightsabers, and one [[OneWingedAngel final clash between good and evil]] to end it all.

* The Nerd's final battle with rival TheNostalgiaCritic should have no doubters of its inherent greatness. Not to mention his showdown with the demonic spirit of ''SuperMarioBros 3''...

** Only as the realization of "Super Famicon" means "Japan-only" catches up to him. After which we're treated to a SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}} filled with {{Angrish}}.

** [[OrIsIt For now]]...

* There's one for [[MeanCharacterNiceActor James Rolfe]]: His StarWars review videos, a surprisingly deep analysis of the iconic film series. Most of us will come out of watching those videos seeing StarWars in a whole new light and gaining a greater appreciation for what it stands for.
** How about his annual Monster Madness videos? A movie review everyday in October, the 2008 edition all the Godzilla movies. The amount of work put into them every year is astounding, and he still does AVGN episodes.

* To me it's his description of "rewriting history" regarding the 16mm-film version of {{King Kong}} in his [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TTcdPKwrU4 Same movies, different formats]] video. Now I know it's not the AVGN here, but Cinemassacre doesn't have it's own page so..

** Only as the realization of "Super Famicon" means "Japan-only" catches up to him. After which we're treated to a CrowningMomentOfFunny filled with {{Angrish}}.

* Somewhere in-between this and CrowningMomentOfFunny is his ''priceless'' reaction to {{Michael Jackson}}'s... special PowerUp move... in ''[[http://www.gametrailers.com/player/44106.html?type=flv Moonwalker: the Game]]''...

* The Nerd's unnecessarily vulgar {{Shut Up Hannibal}} given to [[{{Nightmare on Elm Street}} Freddy Kreuger]].

* Combining both a CMOA and CMOF together in once scene, at one point during the {{Battletoads}}, James and Kyle just [[http://www.thebest404pageever.com/swf/Battletoads.swf start groovin' out to the techno music during the Pause screen]].
* "It's the Nintoaster, and yes, it works." A [=CMoA=] for Richard of stupidfingers.com (who also helped out in the Jaguar Part 2 video), and a [=CMoF=] because of the look James has on his face while saying that.

<<|CrowningMomentOfAwesome|>>

* He has the Nintendo World Championships Gold [[spoiler:WHICH HE JUST FUCKING ANNIHILATES WITH A HAMMER]]

* He has the Nintendo World Championships Gold.

*** YourMileageMayVary, though. As someone who is fairly religious, this troper was just a bit uncomfortable with the gag, despite liking most of the Nerd's other material.

** And then Bugs came back for the Crazy Castle video, a multi-review that's so ludicrously over-the-top that words can't do it justice. [[http://www.gametrailers.com/player/53723.html Watch it now]]!

* Using his Super Scope to help Jesus, who happened to be [[TookALevelInBadass a shimmering light monster made of guns with the calm face of Jesus plastered on it]], take down a [[EldritchAbomination demonically possessed Super Mario Brothers 3 cartridge.]] After the beast was destroyed, the Nerd loudly proclaims "That was fuckin' awesome!" to which Jesus repsonds "[[HypocriticalHumor WATCH YOUR FUCKIN' LANGUAGE!]]" and blasts the fuck out of him.

** In the same episode, Super Mecha Death Christ (who keeps on shouting "FUCKEEEEEERS!") is, in this troper's opinion, James Rolfe's CMOA as a video maker.

* Using his Super Scope to help Jesus, who happened to be [[TookALevelInBadass a shimmering light monster made of guns with the calm face of Jesus plastered on it]], take down a demonically possessed Super Mario Brothers 3 cartridge. After the beast was destroyed, the Nerd loudly proclaims "That was fuckin' awesome!" to which Jesus repsonds "[[HypocriticalHumor WATCH YOUR FUCKIN' LANGUAGE!]]" and blasts the fuck out of him.

* Towards the end of his second Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde review, the Nerd does a philosophical rant about how the game is the greatest game of all time, and how it parallels human life. He concludes the review, however, by saying that "The game fucking sucks!"

** Flying into space to throw a Superman 64 cartridge into the sun while John Williams' Superman theme plays qualifies as well.
*** Which was nicely contributed by Chris Holland, another guitar guy who ocasionally sends his stuff to Rolfe.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2pDLJgdKBA This video]] is also a crowning moment for Mike Matei's animation skills.
** And, of course, only the Nerd can beat the final boss of a shitty game whilst being strangled by a FrankensteinsMonster (of his own creation, to boot).
** The Nerd's unnecessarily vulgar {{Shut Up Hannibal}} given to [[{{Nightmare on Elm Street}} Freddy Kreuger]].
** The intro sequence for part 2 of his Batman game reviews is super awesome not only because of the theme being nicely redone by Chris Holland, but also because it features Luigi and the Nerd kicking ass!
*** And while we're at it, the Batnerd freeing himself from the Joker's clutches in the same video and kicking his butt in a ShoutOut fighting sequence, as well as shoving the shitty games up the Joker's ass.
** Death Kitty chasing the bothersome Jaguar icon all around the room and finally getting out of the place at the tune of a heavy metal contribution of the AVGN Theme, also done by a fan.
** The end of his review of Winter Games on the NES, where he actually goes against all the warnings on the back of an NES cartridge, leaving said cartridge in an oven, in a freezer and under running water, before cleaning it with alcohol, disassembling it, and finally throwing its remains in a fireplace.

** Both fights with Characters/BugsBunny. The first was very one-sided, the second the Bunny wanted revenge.
** Arguably, [[http://www.cinemassacre.com/new/?p=4659 beating Ninja Gaiden 2]] counts as one for both James Rolfe and Mike Matei, especially after the AVGN claimed the entire [[NinjaGaiden Ninja Gaiden trilogy]] [[NintendoHard impossible to defeat]] during his review of it.
** The Swordquest video.

* James beating Zelda II WITH THE POWER GLOVE! And he didn't even know until the last minute too, which was almost ''right after'' he turned off his TV! Can also be considered a CrowningMomentOfFunny.

** When, after having reviewed Top Gun without ever being able to land on the carrier with the pad, he manages to do it with the uncontrollable Power Glove. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYDuy7wM8Gk#t=8m30s (around the 8:30 mark)]] (also counts as a [[CrowningMomentOfFunny CMOF]]).

* James winning the glitched boss battle in MegaMan 5, as chronicled in the "Game Glitches" episode.
