    Zero Punctuation: Awards for 2008

    Saints Row 2... Well, he clearly doesn't have the PC version. It has my vote for "worst keyboard controls" PC game of the year.

    Poll: Dead Space or Fallout 3? Help!

    Fallout 2 was pretty awesome. And my guess is Fallout 3 won't be that buggy, since there has been plenty of time to work the bugs out in Oblivion.

    Zero Punctuation: XBLA Double Bill

    Old console games really don't stand the test of time, but some old PC games (as someone already mentioned, Fallout!) do a little better. And speaking of PC games, Yahtzee, you need to get your hands on Sid Meier's remake of Colonization (don't know if it is out in Australia yet). You will...

    Press Released: Kiddie Games

    For simple action/adventure for the young set, yeah, Lego Star Wars is great. My son also had alot of fun with the millions of Sonic games. But for actually good games for kids, they seems to be pretty much limited to the PC. Crazy Machines is excellent, as is Pinball Science. Gary Gadget...

    The quip about the 8-year-old was particularly apt, as that is who is the primary Spore player in my house.

    I'm an athiest and am totally inspired by Spore. My first creation was the Flying Spagetti Monster! http://www.venganza.org/

    Your favourite music in videogames?

    Final Fantasy--pretty much all of them had good music. But for a PC game, the best is the opening of Sid Meier'S Civ IV: "Baby Yetu." (Don't know if they use this on Civ Rev--I haven't played that yet.)

    Civilization IV: Colonization Called 'Morally Disturbing'

    Why would Colonization be any more disturbing that Civilization? I have to think that this author has actually never played either. And come to think of it, he could well have been traumatized by the board game Risk when he was a child. Either that, or when viewing the blurb about...

    Zero Punctuation: Oblivion

    Woah! Yahtzee has finally reviewed a game I actually play! I generally love his panning of moronic first-person shooters, as I only manage a few hours on them before I am mind-numbingly bored. But Oblivion--okay, I admit it. I've actually finished the game. And I still play it. Yeah, I...
