I was a little confused about that point too, before I realized that it was the Tall-nut that cries, not the Wall-nut. So I'm guessing that the Wall-nut used to have a crying animation too but they removed it. I got PvZ about a month ago after seeing a friend play it (I got it during finals...

I heard many great things about this game from online friends, and asked a real life friend to bring it over so I could give it a try, and after 2 hours I gave up out of boredom. I reported this to my online friends, and they responded that I couldn't get past the "tutorial" phase and that the...

Well, it's been a while since I've posted in the forums here. Due to finals and such, I haven't had a chance to visit The Escapist for a while, and last I heard the finale was supposed to go up around Christmas, so I took this "On Set" as additional commentary to tide us over until the final...

The "whine to water" joke is not original (Cyanide and Happiness did it once, and I'm sure others have done it as well) but that doesn't diminish its effect. I have a theory about the "giving not taking" aspect to the Nadir (sp?) Gems. It seems to me that all of the gems, at a given time...

Pish, this is old news, people. Check out my thread on the subject on another forum [http://elounge.invisionzone.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=8339&view=findpost&p=5815753]. Or read the copypasta right here: For those of you who have played Zelda: Twilight Princess, you are surely familiar...

Great finish for a great series. I like how Schmoopy managed to steal the gem during the opening sequence, a feat that confused me while I watched the intro. Some 3D battle animation effects going on, and overall the humor seemed to go back to more traditional role-playing humor, which I liked...

Bump... or is it? Since we've since strayed from the angle of completely bizarre games (kind of) I wanted to mention an idea I've had for a while that may not be that creative, but would be really cool. Recently I got into the rhythm genre of games, first with DDR and then Guitar Hero, and...

Actually, my friends and I played some Soul Calibur 2 yesterday (we're Wii owners, so no SC4 for us) and I found that I consistently lost every battle after the first one. I mistimed all my guard impacts and could not get any decent damage in before my opponent retaliated. Of course, neither of...

I'm seriously trying to imagine what a second-person shooter would be like. All I can think of is the main character is constantly looking directly at the camera, but that just feels like a weird way of playing third-person... Let me know when you finish your flash game of Pierre; I really...

I'm afraid this thread has nothing to do with Pierre, the French chef, or his adventures riding stick insects while hoisting a gun that shoots velociraptors out of it. After all, that game is the intellectual property of one "Yahtzee." But for those of you who already saw today's Zero...

I agree with the theory of cynicism, and have for a while. I don't understand why some people still find E3 exciting, but... c'est la vie. Besides, I thought after the huge disappointment that was E3 last year everyone turned their attentions to PAX as the new big gaming event of the year. Was I...

I don't understand why the argument over a review that came out two weeks ago is still going on, let alone in this thread. The original thread is still alive; go post your opinion on the matter there, if you must. This week's video is not about Brawl, but rather all the angry fanboys who...

Though this be madness, yet there is method in't. At least he's not attacking the regular viewers, or even any people who emailed him with valid points to make. While the topic might be the same, this video is founded on the childishness of the mass hate mail he received instead of the game...

Wow, I'm not quite sure what to think about this week's episode. On the one hand, it wasn't really a review (of a game, at least) and it discussed a game he already reviewed. On the other hand, it was fucking hilarious. And this is coming from a guy who took offense at the original review (if...

Personally I don't think you can equate the two; AVGN is more of a rant, with emphasis on humor over review, whereas ZP is a review filled with humorous side comments and commentary. They're similar, but the purpose of each feels distinctly different. Of course, this is purely my take on it, and...
