DONUTS?! WORMS?! TIRES?! TRANSFORMER HEADS?! What the heck? No sentinels, no soldiers, nothing like the X-men would face?! (Some of the enemies in the later levels are puddles of water and I'm not kidding, either).
I think I read gamer saw this video and heard that line about the ice guy making ice cubes and thought hey I’ll make a visual literal toilet humor version of that joke for his own X-Men review
That X-men Arena looks like the 2nd World in Contra III the Alien Wars, you know what that boss in that Level would've been much more nice than these abominations they're fighting against.
i was about 8 years old when this came out. i begged my parents to buy it. my parents finally gave in after a month of me bitching and moaning. we went down to music plus and bought it. when i played it i cried, it was so bad. i cried for about an hour. then i cried again when i tried to return it to music plus and they told me satisfaction is not guaranteed, lol.
When I was a kid I used to like the X-Men cartoon. I used to collect the toys, read the comics, and had the X-Men game on the Genesis and it's sequel. One day I was at Funcoland, when it was still called Funcoland, and wandered to the used games bin. Lo and behold, I found X-Men on the NES. I thought, "Cool! An X-Men game on the NES! And at 99 cents!" Should have been a warning sign right there, eh?
Long story short, my sister rented this game for me many years ago and the moment I played X-Men for 5 minutes, I beg my sister to return this crap game...LOL....Memories.
I rented this when i was 7 back in 89 as i was excited for it and been a fan of X-Men comics since 4 and hearing about a game in 89 in game magazines as i couldn't wait, i rented it and it blew badly. This game was a nightmare.
I'm not even an X-men fan, and I thought this game was a slap in the face to them. I'd rather play the awesome 1992 Konami arcade game any day over this worthless piece of shit game.
This guy tries to only review "obscure" games. Occasionally, he'll do a bad game that everyone has heard of (like Shaq Fu), but for the most part, he tries to only do games that very few people have heard of. Hell, he'll even do SYSTEMS that very few people have heard of, such as the Amstrad CPC or the Amiga.
The mission is this: you have to go around like an idiot and find the boss for each stage and when you find the boss, a bomb is planted and you have to go to go through a door that's near the boss and return to where you began in the level, also you don't get to fight the bosses at all, not even Magneto.
Okay, let's be honest here. Why is it that everytime someone on the internet starts doing video reviews about crappy video games with profanity used in humorous context, he instantly get accused for ripping off avgn? Is there anything wrong with someone else expressing their opinion? Seriously, where is it written only James Rolfe should do video game reviews?
Pretty much everyone is useless except Iceman Storm and Nightcrawler, because certain levels have lava like pits that can only be crossed by these 3 characters.
I enjoy your vids very much. Now, if you had to pick the WORST videogame ever, which one would it be??? My money's on Bram Stoker's Dracula for the NES with a close second for the NES Terminator.
I don't think that would've been a good idea. The X-Men Arcade game was made in 1992 and Super NES would have been a better fit since it grew in its popularity and graphics would match the gameplay. I think either lack of licensing rights and/or fear of disappointing fans by butchering graphics for homeport console caused the game to be unreleased for consoles. X-Men for NES is by far the worst NES game I played and I don't think the AVGN bashed on that enough like he did on other games.
Had the game, tough as shit, couldn't remember much as I haven't played in awhile. You thought this game was bad, play the most slowest game ever made: Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you don't have a review for this game, please per request.
Even though this could very well be one of the worst NES games ever made, at least the X-Men arcade game made up for this wretched abomination. The arcade game was far superior in everyway imaginable. Especially since it was made by Konami, the same company behind the Castlevania series and the TMNT arcade game. Too bad though that it was never released on a home console. Because apparently, back in the 90s, people were obsessed with TMNT.
I remembered back around 1999 my friend had this game in his attic. I loved the X-men and wanted to try it. He REFUSED to let me play it, over and over. He told me it SUCKS. I had to give it the benefit of the doubt and wow.....fucking WOW....this game is a fucking abomination. Words cant describe how sucky this fucking game really is.
I rather play EVERY OCEAN game then play this game ever again, it's that bad. I also have to ask since the bosses present no danger, what's the purpose of encountering them or trying to fight them? They just walk in circles and shoot projectiles at you.
I beat this.......whats bad is in order to beat it you need to enter a code on the stage select after you beat all the levels...this code is printed on the cover of the game in the tiny legal print.....so really you need to beat it twice as you need to turn the game off to look at the code.
I remember us renting this game years ago and being fucking baffeld at it. We had no idea what the hell we were supposed to do. The graphics are the ugliest I have ever seen.
(even more nonsensical ranting!) There was this one level, I swear to God, you couldn't get through unless you had Nightcrawler in your party. You beat the boss and had to run through this area where the walls close in behind you. And considering the fact that your buddy character lags SO FAR behind, it's obvious where this is heading. So it's either let the second character die, or make pick Nightcrawler so the computer can navigate THROUGH the walls. GOD, I hated this game.
Filmnstuff is no nerd ripoff, they review games on a totally different style and base. I'm tired of people calling him a ripoff, if you don't like his videos, don't watch 'em.
I used to play this game when I was a lot younger. And I have to say I tried my best to pass at least one level. But it never happened. And it wasn't until the 500,000th time I lost when I finally realized how much of a steaming pile of shit this game is. The AI is so broken in this game. And what's the point in having the AI assist you in 1 player mode if all the second character does is get in the way? That's just completely pointless. Oh, nice use of the X-men theme at the end of your review.
Usually there's excuses why games are bad, but this game FAILS on every level, bad graphics, bad attacks, bad AI, bad level design, just bad everything but the worst has to be attacking enemies
yeah this game was horrible and I spent about 45 bucks on it when I bought it back in the 80's. I wish someone would hunt down who makes these terrible wastes of time and money and interrogate them why the game was created in the first place
I played it and beat it in 4 days and my reward was just like Ghostbusters on the NES, except they somehow spelled the text right. Do the world a favor and if you find this game destroy it.
Yeah, this game was pretty gay, and can't even compare to Superman or Silver Surfer. I still nearly finished it, and I did play it for a good while, because the experience was kinda cool when I was a little kid. Unfortunately, the game absorbed some of mental capacity, though, along with my sense.
"This is one of the few games I know of where listening to it without sound is better than listening to it with sound." Have you ever played Chip's Challenge? That's actually a GOOD game, but the sound effects and music are complete aural rape! No seriously, I'd rather listen to the music of a Tenchen game or LJN game! I'm serious!
Another shitty X-Men game was the one on Genesis. I never understood why people loved it so much. To me, it was an unplayable piece of shit, I really wanted to like it, but I just couldn't.
(continued.) I shed TEARS playing this game. It was SO BAD. I pushed myself to get through this game. And I beat the 4 levels, only to meet....THE STAGE SELECT SCREEN! You can't access the final level until you enter a code! And guess what, the game doesn't tell you the code! OH NO. IT'S in the manual. I was so pissed. I forced myself to play this piece of shit, and that was my reward. NOTHING.
Dare me? No i am not gonna not play this game! It's complete garbage (like Space Ace), i already torture myself with ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'' with that fucking WAVE 10.
DONUTS?! WORMS?! TIRES?! TRANSFORMER HEADS?! What the heck? No sentinels, no soldiers, nothing like the X-men would face?! (Some of the enemies in the later levels are puddles of water and I'm not kidding, either).
+Kenneth Barnes
"Oh god!..." LOL
Every time he said that I was LMFAO.
Does anyone know the theme Filmnstuff used at the credits? I need that fucking song.
It's the X-Men Theme (90s)
Do you think Ocean, yes Ocean, would have done a better job on this game then LJN?
I played this a few years ago. It makes the Back To The Future game look good. I never could beat any levels.
I just thought of something, LJN makes most of their games on Nintendo, are there any LJN games out there on the Sega Genesis?
I got this for Christmas one year, it fucking ruined my day...
X-Men 2: Clone Wars on Genesis is so far the best game I've played.
But yeah, this NES version was a total pile of useless crap-chunk.
The little X-Men sprites look like Legos. Thanks, LJN!
Two comments about this game:
1.) I don't recall Cyclops ever being called "Slim"
2.) Storm looks like a Cylon
Lmfao, honestly I'll go so far as to say Filmnstuff is funnier than the AVGN.
I think I read gamer saw this video and heard that line about the ice guy making ice cubes and thought hey I’ll make a visual literal toilet humor version of that joke for his own X-Men review
Play x men mutant apocalypse for the snes. It's an awesome game.
The X-men arcade game from 1992 was awesome, and I don't even like the X-men.
LJN strikes again!
So does Castle Films.
That X-men Arena looks like the 2nd World in Contra III the Alien Wars, you know what that boss in that Level would've been much more nice than these abominations they're fighting against.
Filmnstuff, do you like Teen Titans?
You say that this game is worse than Superman for the NES? Is it worse than Superman for the N64?
also, I'm suprised you didn't mention it's sequel (Wolverine)
i was about 8 years old when this came out. i begged my parents to buy it. my parents finally gave in after a month of me bitching and moaning. we went down to music plus and bought it. when i played it i cried, it was so bad. i cried for about an hour. then i cried again when i tried to return it to music plus and they told me satisfaction is not guaranteed, lol.
You should had rented it before buying

How do you not like X men?

Hell, he'll even do SYSTEMS that very few people have heard of, such as the Amstrad CPC or the Amiga.
Cyclops' sprite kinda looks like Thanos...
The mission is this: you have to go around like an idiot and find the boss for each stage and when you find the boss, a bomb is planted and you have to go to go through a door that's near the boss and return to where you began in the level, also you don't get to fight the bosses at all, not even Magneto.
Well that's just false advertisement right there considering the front of the box claims you can fight Magneto as a boss.
this video is making me rofl
Why couldn't they give the game license to Sunsoft or Capcom?
So again why not give it to them?
I remember playing X2: Wolverine's Revenge on PS2. Had quite a bit of fun with it.
Ya know I remember playing a lot of video games early on as wolverine and he never had his healing ability.
They might have been better, but to me, they are almost the same. And you're right. Why couldn't they give the game license to SUNSOFT or CAPCOM?
Okay, let's be honest here. Why is it that everytime someone on the internet starts doing video reviews about crappy video games with profanity used in humorous context, he instantly get accused for ripping off avgn? Is there anything wrong with someone else expressing their opinion? Seriously, where is it written only James Rolfe should do video game reviews?
But at least you know your mission and occasionally fight the bad guys.
Only ones I know of are the WWE/WWF games, and the ports of Maximum Carnage and Arcade's Revenge.
Pretty much everyone is useless except Iceman Storm and Nightcrawler, because certain levels have lava like pits that can only be crossed by these 3 characters.
what's really funny is that this game probably sold for 39.99 or 49.99 brand new when it first came out. Money well spent.
I rented this when I was a kid, and played it for more than 5 minutes! Then never played it again.
I enjoy your vids very much. Now, if you had to pick the WORST videogame ever, which one would it be??? My money's on Bram Stoker's Dracula for the NES with a close second for the NES Terminator.
Funny thing is...Capcom did get the X-men license...in 1994. On the Super NES. Mutant Apocalypse.
Two questions
1. Why are you watching these? There are a thousand other channels on youtube.
2. Do you think you can do a better review of this game?
Man You Got That Right Again xD
When I Was 5 I Played That Game So Many Times,The More I Play It The More I Start To HATE IT! :D
I don't think that would've been a good idea. The X-Men Arcade game was made in 1992 and Super NES would have been a better fit since it grew in its popularity and graphics would match the gameplay.

His excuse his weird as well. I have an appointment Sunday and trying to calm down? I don't get it.
At 11yrs old playing this game I knew it wasn't a great game but I gave it a pass because of the Saturday cartoon series and plus I wasn't working
Had the game, tough as shit, couldn't remember much as I haven't played in awhile.
You thought this game was bad, play the most slowest game ever made:
Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you don't have a review for this game, please per request.
I'd rather shit in a washing machine and dive in for the spin cycle than play one level of Dr. Jekyll for the NES.
My, I didn't know Storm looked so...mannish. XD
Even though this could very well be one of the worst NES games ever made, at least the X-Men arcade game made up for this wretched abomination. The arcade game was far superior in everyway imaginable. Especially since it was made by Konami, the same company behind the Castlevania series and the TMNT arcade game. Too bad though that it was never released on a home console. Because apparently, back in the 90s, people were obsessed with TMNT.
Hey llandar, just because someone reviews a game and swears a lot in their reviews doesn't mean their ripping of the AVGN. So chill out.
You'll bet I'll take your word on that one, coruscant100.
I had this game and Silver Surfer as a kid. I have to say Silver Surfer is much worse than this, that game is simply unplayable.
I love your angry reviews!
Did they even test this shit fest
I remembered back around 1999 my friend had this game in his attic. I loved the X-men and wanted to try it. He REFUSED to let me play it, over and over. He told me it SUCKS. I had to give it the benefit of the doubt and wow.....fucking WOW....this game is a fucking abomination. Words cant describe how sucky this fucking game really is.
Hey I like your Videos they are really funny.
I rather play EVERY OCEAN game then play this game ever again, it's that bad. I also have to ask since the bosses present no danger, what's the purpose of encountering them or trying to fight them? They just walk in circles and shoot projectiles at you.
I thought Superman for the N64 was the worst.
I beat this.......whats bad is in order to beat it you need to enter a code on the stage select after you beat all the levels...this code is printed on the cover of the game in the tiny legal print.....so really you need to beat it twice as you need to turn the game off to look at the code.

And considering the fact that your buddy character lags SO FAR behind, it's obvious where this is heading.
So it's either let the second character die, or make pick Nightcrawler so the computer can navigate THROUGH the walls.
GOD, I hated this game.
the graphics literally made me sick to my stomach. i can hardly look at the game, let alone play it.
Filmnstuff is no nerd ripoff, they review games on a totally different style and base. I'm tired of people calling him a ripoff, if you don't like his videos, don't watch 'em.
Sspaghetti zone comes back
use the car's tailpipe as a bong... haha.
Heard very little of it, but never played it.
I used to play this game when I was a lot younger. And I have to say I tried my best to pass at least one level. But it never happened. And it wasn't until the 500,000th time I lost when I finally realized how much of a steaming pile of shit this game is. The AI is so broken in this game.

Oh, nice use of the X-men theme at the end of your review.
wait, this guy doesn't like the x-men animated series?! that's blasphemy. i no longer respect him.
u forgot superman 64
Usually there's excuses why games are bad, but this game FAILS on every level, bad graphics, bad attacks, bad AI, bad level design, just bad everything but the worst has to be attacking enemies
Even 8 year old me hated this game
I never played this game when I was eight--thank goodness--but I'm sure the eight year old me would've hated it too.
Albino Donuts, priceless
yeah this game was horrible and I spent about 45 bucks on it when I bought it back in the 80's. I wish someone would hunt down who makes these terrible wastes of time and money and interrogate them why the game was created in the first place
LJN made this game. No wonder it sucked. The X-Men deserve a much better game than this, from a much better company than "Laughin'-Jokin'-Numbnuts".
Superman 64 is worse. There is no possible way to create a game worse than that. all you do is fly through rings, and do nothing else.
out of all of LJN's shit i actually find Jaws and Nightmare on Elm street to be pleasant...
I played it and beat it in 4 days and my reward was just like Ghostbusters on the NES, except they somehow spelled the text right. Do the world a favor and if you find this game destroy it.
This one of the worst games ever made. Especially for NES. Of Course LJN made it, no wonder it's the worst.
Yeah, this game was pretty gay, and can't even compare to Superman or Silver Surfer. I still nearly finished it, and I did play it for a good while, because the experience was kinda cool when I was a little kid.
Unfortunately, the game absorbed some of mental capacity, though, along with my sense.
This game sucks so hard. I wasted my allowance ($2) renting it when I was 9 or 10. I was so pissed.
That's because this game comes from LJN and there nearly as bad of game designers as OCEAN.
I've sat and played this game for 3 days.
"This is one of the few games I know of where listening to it without sound is better than listening to it with sound."
Have you ever played Chip's Challenge? That's actually a GOOD game, but the sound effects and music are complete aural rape! No seriously, I'd rather listen to the music of a Tenchen game or LJN game! I'm serious!
Another shitty X-Men game was the one on Genesis. I never understood why people loved it so much. To me, it was an unplayable piece of shit, I really wanted to like it, but I just couldn't.
Yeah, from seeing this review, I know some OCEAN games that are terrible that are better than this game such as The Untouchables and Jurassic Park.
@Johnlindsey289 actually Action 52 is worse then both of those.
@Meex1989 I beg to differ. X-Men is the worst comic book game ever made.
I played it...I died a little inside when I did.
@Metalitron12 yes.
god fucking damn it i hated this game so much. Rented it, wanted my $2 back.
I think Superman 64 is better than this but not by much, at least in that game you know your mission fly through rings and pick up crap.
Indeed, coruscant100.
I give this game a 1-one-star-in-a-half.
You're being really generous. LOL.
@@filmnstuff I in fact, hate this game, And I expected it, since it was from LJN.
Neither do I.
Who knew shitty games were self aware?
I played this game, and I like it, i dont think its THAT bad.
Another good one, FnS.
(continued.)
I shed TEARS playing this game. It was SO BAD. I pushed myself to get through this game. And I beat the 4 levels, only to meet....THE STAGE SELECT SCREEN! You can't access the final level until you enter a code! And guess what, the game doesn't tell you the code! OH NO. IT'S in the manual. I was so pissed.

Dare me? No i am not gonna not play this game! It's complete garbage (like Space Ace), i already torture myself with ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'' with that fucking WAVE 10.
Superman 64...
Thanks for the info.
@antoniox2040 How wrong of him to have his own opinion!
