The titular Nerd character is an ill-tempered and foul-mouthed video game fanatic. He derives comic appeal from excessive and inventive use of profanity, frequent displays of explicit gestures, and heavy consumption of beer, particularly Rolling Rock or Yuengling, to "soothe the pain". A particular characteristic is his favorable comparison of extremely repulsive and painful, usually firmly scatological, acts to playing the games he reviews. Varying amounts of physical comedy are mixed into the verbal abuse.

It's the most wonderful time of the year... unless you're the Nerd. Instead of watching heart-warming Christmas specials, he's playing some more bad games of biblical proportions, and the strange Christian-themed games just keep coming! First up is Noah's Ark, developed by Contra developers Konami and released in 1992 for the NES. Wrap your head around that one! After that, we've got Sunday Funday, a religious rehash of Menace Beach, a game where you play as a skateboarder who's trying to save his girlfriend from gangsters before she gets stripped naked. How developers Color Dreams were inspired to turn this into a Christian game defies common sense. And just when you think it can't get any worse, the Nerd busts out the baddest of the bad - Bible-themed games on the CD-i! If you were hoping for peace and love this Christmas, you might be watching the wrong video. So spike your eggnog and grab your stockings, 'cause the Nerd is going to town on these awful games!
