CD-i Part 3: Faces of Evil and Zelda's Adventure

The Nerd concludes his CD-i review with the two remaining Zelda games. The first one is Link: The Faces of Evil which has all of the same problems as Wand of Gamelon had. While the final game the Nerd reviews is Zelda's Adventure, which he praises it for not having the same bad animation as the first two games and is now an over head view like the earlier Zelda games instead of a slide scroller game. However the game still suffers with an abundance of flaws such as poorly detailed backgrounds making it hard to know what is an opening and what isn't. The CD load time takes a while when ever you enter a new area and the voice acting is as bad as the acting in the previous two games. The Nerd's main complaint is the maps for the game are inconsistent and makes you feel lost upon exploring the dungeon levels. Written by J LeGault

The Nerd does a review on the time-line of Legend of Zelda in the same fashion as his previous review on confusing titles to sequels of movies and games. For this one he talks about the Zelda games made up to the year 2008. And tries to piece together how each of them fit as one whole time-line. Only to discover that most of them are less connected than the other. Which in the end he concludes that the franchise doesn't need to have a well explained time-line when each game is worth playing without knowing what occurred in any of the other games.

With the upcoming release of the fourth Rambo movie, the Nerd reviews Rambo for the NES. The game suffers from four problems which are: confusing navigation on the landscapes, pointless chat options, unnecessary use of animals as enemies, and the idea of the screen blinking red when low on health. The Nerd also reviews some other Rambo games but couldn't find a single one that actually is fun to play. He feels the games should of taken advice from Contra on how to make a commando theme game more fun. Written by J LeGault

The Nerd does a summary on the Virtual Boy, a promising portable console that was only in the market for one year. He shows the viewers his own Virtual Boy and points out some of the features that make it infamous including the unusual design that creates problems in how to play it in the right position. He then does a review on all of the games made for the platform. He does admit that there's a hand full of good games, but is displeased with how the rest of them don't take advantage of being in 3D or give any feeling of being in a virtual world.

The Nerd plays the Super Nintendo adaption of the 1939 Wizard of Oz movie. Something that can't be made into a good game. Mainly due to the addition of weird enemies and locations that don't look like something you'd find in either the movie or the original books. The Nerd's main complaint is the large number of glitches the game has where various platforms make the characters in the game fall through. While playing the game, the Nerd is visited by the Cowardly Lion who won't shut up through out the review. Written by J LeGault

The Nerd does a review on the two competing consoles to the Atari 2600 Intellivision and Colecovision. He starts his review on Intellivision first and also does a review on most of its games. His main complaint is the controller for the Intellivision makes playing the games harder. Despite how most of Intellivision's games are knock offs of already popular Atari games. He's also amused by the fuzzy sound quality of the voice synthesizer that is only compatible to certain Intellivision games. Written by J LeGault

The Nerd does a follow up to the previous review by showing us the features of the Colecovision. The controllers aren't any different from the Intellivision, while most of the games are as bad they look. His main complaint is one of the add-ons to the console is a device that allows you to play Atari 2600 games on the Colecovision. The Nerd found it hard to believe the competitor of Atari was allowed to sell such a device. Cause in today's gaming market it wouldn't be allowed when it can create multiple lawsuits.

The Nerd decides to review a good game for once which is Super Mario Bros. 3. Before he reviews it, he talks about the movie The Wizard which is how American gamers first learn about the game as it was a product placement along with the NES Power Glove. While the Nerd doesn't find the story for The Wizard to be great, he did admit that it holds a place in the gaming community. After putting his review on the Wizard aside he starts to play Super Mario Bros. 3, while it has a lot of hard parts it is really fun to play, however the Nerd couldn't help but notice the game having many hidden messages that lead to the implication that the game is possessed by the devil.

In a Star Trek theme review, the Nerd dons a yellow Starfleet uniform and decides to review a couple Star Trek related games, cause reviewing all of them would be too much for him to handle. The most absurd one he can find is the 25th Anniversary game for the NES which consists of pointless dialog and confusing quests, the Nerd thought about destroying it with a phaser but had a change of heart believing that the game developers tried their hardiest when making the game.

The Nerd reviews two of the earlier Superman theme games. The first one for the Atari 2600 is not just bad in graphics but is confusing to navigate. While the Superman game for the NES is another story where all of the characters are drawn in a chibi style and the use of attacks don't do justice towards the enemies. The Nerd's biggest complete about the game is that one of the missions involve trying to see why the stocks are so low in the stock market. The Nerd isn't sure why a game intended for kids would be interested in the stock market. Overall the Nerd finds the game unreviewable cause he could go on for hours on why it's bad and even dares the viewers to try to play the game to see why it's so frustrating. Written by J LeGault

The Nerd complies to his fan requests to review Superman 64 which he decided to pull everyone's leg by reviewing the Superman game for Commodore 64. His main complaint is the load time takes forever and he finds the Commodore controller to be so stiff that he resulted in using an alternate controller. After that he does review Superman 64 for the Nintendo 64 as the fans wished him to do so in the first place. Once he dived into the first level he already finds it to be terrible when all you do is fly through rings under a short time limit. When it comes to video game Superman has received a lot of bad game adaptations. Written by J LeGault

While he praises the NES adaptation of the 1989 movie and the SNES adaptation of Batman Returns, not to mention the SNES game of the Animated Series, he deems the Atari Linx and Sega CD games to be crap, but the worst of all is Batman Forever on SNES. As if all that weren't bad enough, one of Batman's arch-nemeses pays the Bat-Nerd a visit. Written by J.D. Nerd

The Nerd was about to talk about Battletoads only to discover that Guitar Guy is sitting right next to him on the couch rather than being behind the couch like in the intros to each review. The Nerd demanded that Guitar Guy to go back to his usual spot except Guitar Guy feels that for once he should be part of one of Nerd's reviews. After the Nerd learns how hard it was for Guitar Guy to live behind a couch after the past two years the Nerd allowed him to do a review with him. So as they start to play Battletoads' two player mode they both learn how unfair the mode is when both players can attack each other along with the enemies and that is one player dies it's game over for both the player that died and the player that lived. Guitar Guy and the Nerd agreed that the makers of Battletoads didn't know how to make a 2 player mode game work properly. Written by J LeGault

The Nerd decides to review various Dracula games as well as dressing up as a vampire while playing them. Excluding the Castlevania series, the Nerd is only going to focus on very obscure Dracula games. Each one was bad, but the ones that the Nerd complains the most is the game adaptations of Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula movie. The only version that comes close to being good is the Sega CD version, the only thing that ruins it is the bad control scheme and the only enemies being rats and bats. The Nerd felt there's too many games with bats as enemies. Written by J LeGault

Then the Nerd has no choice but to play through the rest of the Frankenstein theme games. The most obscure title he plays is Frankenstein: The Monster Returns. Progressing into the game is so hard that not even using Game Genie on the game will help the Nerd out. Written by J LeGault

Specially when all the game features is Mario closing every single door in order to proceed to the next level. Written by J LeGault

The Nerd now reviews one of the three Zelda games for the CD-i. Out of the three he decides to play Zelda: Wand of Gamelon first cause the Nerd thought it be cool to control Zelda in a Zelda game for once since her name is on every single Zelda game. The Nerd soon finds out that the game is nothing like the Nintendo licensed Zelda games. Instead the game has bad animation, poor voice acting, complicated controls, confusing layouts of the levels, and frustrating use of items. The main criticism the Nerd had for the game is that a lot of the areas go dark for no reason which results in using a lantern that has a short life span. Resulting in navigating through the dark areas without knowing where the exit is. Written by J LeGault

While the final game the Nerd reviews is Zelda's Adventure, which he praises it for not having the same bad animation as the first two games and is now an over head view like the earlier Zelda games instead of a slide scroller game. However the game still suffers with an abundance of flaws such as poorly detailed backgrounds making it hard to know what is an opening and what isn't. The CD load time takes a while when ever you enter a new area and the voice acting is as bad as the acting in the previous two games. The Nerd's main complaint is the maps for the game are inconsistent and makes you feel lost upon exploring the dungeon levels. Written by J LeGault
