Thylacine Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Wow, Yahtzee was pretty serious and still made me laugh. It was a nice contrast to the Quantum Conundrum review (which also made me laugh, but in the usual Yahtzee way).
Modus Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 That quirky hands thing he did for Lollipop Chainsaw was the golden moment of my 2012.
Modus Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 I played The Line because of his review. Yeah it's ****ing depressing.
Dj Mokram Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 I played The Line because of his review.Yeah it's ****ing depressing. Ahah, I was playing this game a couple weeks ago, and it actually fried my GPU. Guess it was too depressing even for machines. ;P Hands down one of the best narrative to ever come out of a military shooter. The part involving white phosphorus is imprinted in my brain forever. Also, The Line features some truly gorgeous scenery/art-direction. Nice to play a cover-based shooter not relying solely on the dark-brown palette. Inversion on the other hand...
Annie Felis Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 Not that we need Yatzee to tear a shovelware game a new one in order for us to realize that they're terrible, but it's nice all the same.

The game is really a commentary on modern war shooters, done through the narrative and mechanics. Extra Credits did a two part episode on the game.
Thylacine Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 I don't know what it is about Yahtzee's play-through descriptions that make them so great, but it's his best material. It's self-depreciating, hyperbolic to the perfect point, and accessible regardless of if you've played the game or not. The DayZ review was hilarious. EDIT (9/19): Yahtzee was at the Escapist Expo for some panels, which they linked here. There was no traditional ZP this week.
MadGonzo Posted September 27, 2012 Posted September 27, 2012 I recently started watching his reviews again I grew really bored with his format for a while. The Sims 3 review is still the best one to date. So many parallels to modern life.
Calpis Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 I almost didn't watch this week's episode because it was a review for a soccer game.
