    Zero Punctuation: E3 2010

    Fuck off, Yahtzee, you old bastard. Your spoiler alert AFTER you say the spoiler wasn't funny. I'm currently reading that book for the first time. QFT. It's not like Nintendo making these games stops developers from making completely new games. More importantly, a sequel CAN be a...

    What did you dream about last night?

    Are you sure you weren't just watching an episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia?

    Taking Yahtzee's opinions to heart.

    I suspect you don't know what a critic means. All reviewers are critics. Yahtzee's problem is that he's a prejudgemental cynic. That said, I actually do appreciate his opinion most of the time. He makes a lot of good points, and all he's really pushing for is some intelligent, creativity and...

    Japanese Gamers Divided on Subtitles vs. Dubs

    You doubt they care enough about 50% of their potential market? Besides, if you've included dubs, subs require exactly zero effort to implement. Just transcribe the dub and give people the option to disable either one. EDIT: Wait, what am I saying? You don't have to transcribe anything...

    Canadian Sex Ed Game is Weird but Informative

    WONDER VAG?! This is the most fantastic game ever! Horrible form of sex ed, because it's no ridiculous no one will take it seriously. But I'd play it for shits and giggles.

    Hentai Collector Sentenced to Jail Over "Obscene" Material

    This man is being sent to jail because he was in possession of disturbing fictional images? How could anyone get behind a ruling like that? You know there's something terribly wrong with your legal system when that happens. If it was actual child pornography, of course he should be sent to...

    Unskippable: Sonic Unleashed

    The only good thing I can say about that cutscene is that it inspired this hilarious video.

    Zero Punctuation: Left 4 Dead 2 & New Super Mario Bros Wii

    Sometimes I wonder if Yahtzee bashes these games just to get a rise out of people. I'm not sure I understand his logic here, though. New Super Mario Bros. does nothing new... except for four-player co-op (a series first, and correct me if I'm mistaken, but a side-scrolling first), new...

    What is a game series you wish would just die already?

    Game series stopping doesn't "make room" for new, original games. The money made from those series fuels the industry and enables companies to make new, original games. If you have a problem with sequels, well, no one is forcing you to buy them - I assure you, there are plenty of original games...

    Voice of Mario Reveals Unannounced Mario Videogame

    Super (Mario) Orgy Porno Party! All those characters, all that excitement... What else could it be?

    Skirt Kept Peach Out of New Super Mario Brothers

    person427, see above. "This game is using all of the Wii's processing power so we can't incorporate online" "Peach's skirt would require too much programming to add her as a character" Are you fucking kidding me? This game will make millions upon millions of dollars. Too much...

    Finland Declares Broadband Net Access a "Legal Right"

    So you're saying politicians shouldn't bother passing any law that isn't among the most important and pressing in the world? ... All I can respond with is that I'm glad you're not a politician. Finland is moving a step in the right direction towards not allowing ISPs to abuse consumers and we...

    Intelligent games, I'm running out.

    Death Gate. 1994. PC. Probably abandonware by now. Game is freaking hard, and probably one of the first games to have high quality voice acting at length. My god, that game has so much dialogue. It's also the game that got me into point-and-click adventures.

    Sharia law and the Escapist.

    You fooled me as someone who wasn't totally fucking ignorant until this paragraph. Not only has America caused more harm and killed hundreds of times more civilians in the Middle East than any terrorist attack or casualties against America, but you're wrong in generalizing the whole Middle East...
