The farting bird on the swing actually gives you cheat codes! If you pause the game and press the C buttons it makes the same sounds as the bird and putting in the right patterns grants you lots of fun stuff
You can tell he REALLY wanted to show of the N64 power glove, and this was the perfect excuse. Also, the breakdown he has when he sees how easy the PS1 version is is glorious.
I can only imagine the Nerd's rage if he had made it to one of later levels, got a game over, and encountered the game-breaking bug that randomly deletes your save file.
Bro he was pre-TH-cam. AVGN predates TH-cam as a website, back in the earlier days of the internet. James is the grandfather of all modern video game TH-camrs.
So on the farting bird, if you pause the game and press different buttons, some of them make the same sound effects the bird makes. If you repeat the sound effect patterns the bird makes you'll get cheat codes and the bird will make more patterns as you progress through the game.
The bit with him pouring with sweat all down his face and onto the controller is a reference to Airplane where Robert Hays is trying with all his might to land the plane safely. LOL.
Fact: The PS1 version also has rendered cutscenes, & They're tell a slighty diferent story. In the N64, The wizard Is turned Into stone by His own hubrus. In the PS1 though, The left glove purposedly sabotages the potion and does plot to get rid of the wizard, the crystals and become Cross Stitch.
Interesting. I played the N64 version as a kid. I wonder if the remaster that has been in development for ages is following the PS1 version or not. Loved this game as a kid despite how frustrating it was at times. I played through the whole game tons of times.
The moment when AVGN started to break down when _Glover_ on the PS1 can handle the controls better than N64 is hilarious. This is just like the _Megaman Legends_ situation all over again in a nutshell.
To me it looks like the PS1 collision detection is broken. He rolled over the edges of platforms and nothing happened. Of course it's easier then! So it seems the N64 version handles controls better and therefore it's way more difficult.
If there's ONE cool thing about Glover, it's that if you buy it on GOG, there's an ISO in the game files that you can burn to a CD-R and play on your Playstation 1 or 2 that can read burned CDs (or I guess you could run it in Duckstation).

The funny part about the PS1 version of Glover is that its actually often regarded as the worst version. Did you also know that a sequel to Glover was actually planned but cancelled? A prototype demo of the sequel can actually be found online if you look hard enough.
The prototype is actually very easy to legally find: Glover got released on Steam and as a bonus a ROM file for Glover 2 is included in the game files.

Well no wonder. Nerd, you're playing it wrong... 1- The bird making the noises is actually saying random cheat code sequences. You can either memorize them or look them up in guides. 2- Use the cheat codes to do the following... Unlock the special pink bouncy ball transformation, lower the gravity, higher bouncing, enhanced speed... Extra lives... Enjoy the chaos!
Glover on N64 was hard, but it wasn’t frustrating, my cousin got the game cheap from KB Toys, that game should’ve been played with a trackball controller, it would’ve made the game close to Super Monkey Ball!
@@benmalsky9834 It didn't pave anything. Like no one looked at the Power Glove and Virtual Boy and thought to make the VR headsets and motion controllers we have today. It's a mistake to think that something released earlier was the basis for something later.

In the PS1 though, The left glove purposedly sabotages the potion and does plot to get rid of the wizard, the crystals and become Cross Stitch.
That left glove sounds like the villain from Westwood's Kyrandia II game (old point 'n click adventure)
