Zero Punctuation; video game reviews

I actually thought this last one was pretty hilarious. Well they are all funny in their own right he just seemed to have a lot more spunk in this last one.

By the way thanks for keeping up with the links Lobelia.

No problem. :tup:

F.E.A.R. 2

Spider-Man: Web of Shadows

This review mentions that he was contemplating a review of Street Fighter IV. Let’s hope that he never does it. If he insulted Viper in any way, shape, or form, I’d have to hunt him down, tear out his eyes and testicles, and switch their locations.

I dont think he will ever review Street Fighter IV. If memory serves me right he treats them all as button mashers and pounds on the computer all day. Then he calls it shallow or some shit. Anyways I’m sure your digital girl is safe from his criticism.

She is. My girlfriend, though…she’s a Lara Croft fan. Not so lucky. :shake:

I’m pretty sure he’ll be forced to review at some point, being such a big hit and all. But I’m sure it’ll still be fun to watch him destroy all the single player elements, and the uninspired character designs (new and old).

Well, he isn’t one to review a game just because people tell him to unless thousands of people tell him to. Notice how he has yet to review a JRPG other than Heterosexuality Ends With You. You don’t think people want him to review Star Ocean: The Last Hope?

I assumed the website that plays his videos had at least some say in what he reviews.

To an extent. My money, however, is on Halo Wars being the next review.

Yeah I agree. I played it for like two seconds at Gamestop and walked away. Pretty much sums up my experience with it.

I really like it, if only for the story, but as an RTS it’s not that bad.

House of the Dead: Overkill
This also includes a little comparison segment in which Yahtzee explains why House of the Dead: Overkill is a better game than Killzone 2.

Whoa, this dude is still doing this?

Totally forgot about this guy. Ah well, he’s only good for the novelty of his review, not much else.

Agreed

50 Cent: Blood on the Sand
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~! Racism!

Hope he does Resident Evil 5 next.

:rofl: the last 5 seconds killed me.

Lucky you.

Resident Evil 5
This week, Yahtzee expresses sentiments coming from deep within the bowels of not his contemptuous heart, but mine.
Resident Evil 5 fucking blows.

In my opinion Resident Evil 5 (much like 4) are fine as action games. But as far as the franchise being anything close to a Survival Horror game its way off the mark. Which is a shame cause I really enjoyed the helplessness that they put on you. Back then your pistol was you rbest friend, and more than two zombies at once meant your ass. Oh well.

End Rant.

Halo Wars
This review starts off with a review of X-Blades by the guy from another Escapist show called “Unskippable.”
