"This is episode 206 of the Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN)! In this episode of AVGN, the Nerd talks about everyone's favorite Lasagna Eating Orange Cat, Garfield. From Atari to Sega Genesis, The Nerd will dig into a big pile of Cat Crap!"



"I didn't know Garfield had such deep lore..."

I thought for sure when he said this, especially on the heels of talking about all the crazy and dark Lyman fan theories stuff, that the Nerd was about to bring up the infamous and very weird 1989 story, "Garfield Alone," but... then he didn't.

However, this video is so much more than just Garfield. Well, no, mostly it's Garfield, but I knew when he showed that Game Boy game near the end, things were about to get weird. I used to own the US version of that game, which was, as the video points out, decidedly not a Garfield game. (Though, to be fair, it really wasn't much of a Ghostbusters game, either. ¬_¬) I didn't have the slightest clue about all that other weird shit, though, like how the Bugs Bunny games in the US were Mickey Mouse games in Japan, and the like.

Speaking of Bugs Bunny, it was nice to have Mike back again, even if this was probably just a one-off thing. Maybe not so nice to hear him, though... Nyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh... (I'll admit, I did chuckle a bit the longer it went on.)

As a kid, I was more of a Heathcliff guy, though even with that, I preferred the bits with Riff Raff and the Catillac Cats, rather than the actual Heathcliff stuff. The Heathcliff comics stuff... not so much. Also, this.

It's about time. X4 fans have been wanting the Boron expansion since before Cradle of Humanity and Tides of Avarice, hell, maybe even before Split Vendetta. (I didn't get X4 until after SV was out, so I don't know for sure if that was the case, but it wouldn't surprise me.)

The trailer music is, of course, based on one of the best tracks from the previous games.

Looks like they opted on just having the Boron wearing floaty suits and keeping everything else the same, which I guess makes way more sense than doing what would have been accurate lore-wise, i.e. having all the Boron ships/stations completely filled with water and making all the other races have to deal with that.
