I tended to disagree with Yahtzee on both the decisions he listed. 1) Doug Or Carley: You have limited time to get out of that room. Carley has a gun and knows how to use it. Knowing how to program a machine is not as useful in a zombie apocalypse access to a weapon. I appreciate that this is...

Do whatever you like, really. Elder Scrolls games are accommodating and not that difficult, you can do as you please and face no negative repercussions in almost all circumstances. Speaking as a guy with hundreds (and hundreds, and hundreds) of hours in Oblivion, I advise talking to random...

Er... no? Semi colon's indicate a connected idea, such that it is separated in a fashion similar to that of a comma. The idea I expressed were directly connected, and involved no, even minor, separation. Secondly, a colon was necessary as an introduction. For example: "I need to go to the shop...

"One of the oldest philosophical debates known to man: which has the greater influence upon us, nature or nurture?" That's how I'd word it at least. You should also seriously put a space after a closed bracket.

There's your problem. Kotaku is like the daily mail of gaming journalism: bog roll. Plenty of other outlets such as Rock Paper Shotgun and PC Gamer offer much more interesting in content. Claiming that gaming journalism is down the pan because Kotaku are shit is like claiming music is...

I treat Yahtzee as a source of entertainment journalism more so than the ha-ha factory it used to be. Yahtzee has an act, and when that act is delivered every week it's bound to lose it's flavour. I still think the man has valid things to say though, and the quality of his writing is good...

Never played Saints Row 2, don't much care to. I'm a bit of a sucker for sandbox games, so I found Saints Row 3 quite addictive. The only thing I didn't like however, was when it sacrificed it's self referential and borderline satirical humour in favour of saying "HUE HUE HUE LOOK GUYS THIS...

Nothing's proven as of yet, I'll hold back judgement.

The Walking Dead Feel no emotional attachment to Clementine. It's impossible.

It's easy to pull out the "but he's a blank slate" technique instead of bothering to make an interesting character. A linear, story based game gains nothing from having a bland protagonist. I'd say he's a pretty bad character.

Translation: He didn't enjoy some games I liked. OT: I disagree with him on Smash Brothers, it has huge amounts of end game depth that he ignored whilst writing it off as a button masher. The SSBB esports scene was pretty big, and watching skilled players compete is something far beyond the...

The multiple universe idea isn't exactly new, so I don't think it's inclusion in a game is an example of direct inspiration from a journalist that (sort of) mentioned it once.

Yeah, because when I was reading the books all that boobs and blood was really what kept me going. Wait...

If I'm not wrong, the experiment involved a direct mic with the guy getting shocked. The whole idea of the experiment was that he would start screaming more and more as the test went on. You don't need to be a scientist to know that hearing somebody say "GAAAGGHH" is usually a bad sign. Even...

Ethnical, unethical, it doesn't matter. A truth is a truth. Experiments are useful, people that are unwilling to accept that humans are immoral are not. I fully agree with you that it's a good thing people realise who they truly are. It's pointless to try to hide people from what has been...
