I enjoy them, although I liked them a little better when he put in related music at the beginning and end. But the similes are gold, and he tends to give an honest opinion about things, so still most good :(.


Sir Thursday
Don't look now, but I think there's something weird attached to the bottom of my posts.

He definitely liked L4D, which is pretty rare for him. :(


Still, great stuff. ^^

Well, for some bizar reason the man is in love with valve, so people were more surprised about the amount of critizism he gave the game :(

I don't think people were demanding money, rather that Zero Punctuation made him chose/make/find an intro theme so that they wouldn't get a giant bill in the mail from the music industry. When you're a small internet site that no one watches you can get away with it, but the amount of attention Zero Punctuation gets changes that.

I love his reviews. While I don't always agree with his reviews, you can trust him to not pull any punches.

"Were-hog" I nearly pee'd myself.

Man he got pretty pissed in this review. I can't remember him being this angry since the time he reviewed Halo :p

Best review all year me thinks.

EDIT: I think I'll watch this for the fourth time :p

EDIT2: It does make one kinda sad. My first gamesystem was the sega mastersystem 2. I loved sonic and those first couple of games were awesome. Shame that he's apparently lost it :D

anyone check out gamedamage?
I found it a bit disapointing, their "funny" interludes weren't realyl funny and yahtzee certainly loses something performing in this manner.

Ahh, saw the first half. Thought it was ok, could do with some tightening up, more flashmoney and better dialogue.

Yahtzee completely outshines them.

his deadpan gets a little irritating, he really over states its on the live video, zero punctuation suits him far better

DAT ASS
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Yatzee reviews 50 cents new game

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/vie...ood-on-the-Sand

Not his best piece yet, but as always there is an amazing rap up (ha ha ha see what I did there). I litterally blurted out "Oh no you didn't!".

Last one was hilarious at the end. Best one he's done in a while.
