    WB is using the death of an employe to make money

    I am amazed people can defend this. Also, the "legal reasons" argument is nonsense, doesn't explain the tiny print, doesn't explain why they are keeping 30%, and doesn't explain why they aren't donating the money in those excluded states and nations to charities. Because the notion that the...

    Europa Universalis 4: Too Eurocentric

    The problem is that the game actually lets you play non european nations, they added them in expansions, but they often suck. For example, you can play a native american nation, but even if you westernize it, it will still suffer from having weaker military because westernizing doesn't change...

    Zero Punctuation: Sacred 3 - Nothing Is Sacred

    The answer to that question is that they haven't. A completely different company made sacred 3, they just used the same name because for some reason the company that owns the name decided they wanted to screw their loyal customers.

    Zero Punctuation: Top 5 Games of 2013

    Did yahtze just point out the worst game ever and challenged developers to make an even worse one, claiming it would never be done?

    The Hurt Foot Locker

    We need empirical evidence. To do that we need an experiment... I think you just came up with the perfect comic for tomrrow

    Zero Punctuation: The Bureau: XCOM Declassified

    Years from now, when someone asks me what this game was about, all I could say is that it was shite and when yahtzee was done playing it he ate 11 pizzas

    Zero Punctuation: E3 2013

    He is talking slower AND running out of breath more. Back in the day you had to REALLY put in the effort to make out what he said.

    Xbone Week #2

    It is easy to blame the PR team for being incompetent. But their job is to take feces and make the desirable and that is... well, very hard. I am pretty sure the rumors are spot on.

    Zero Punctuation: Next Gen Buyer's Guide

    cynicism? this was not an over the top parody of a review, but a regular run of the mill review for next gen consoles, because they are really that bad.

    Critical Miss: The Bastard's Guide to Journalism

    The kickstarter one is really odd. The sellers: 1. Admit to being drug dealers (they claim to be the dealers who sold the mayor the crack) 2. Want the money to move their drug operation to another city 3. Fear retaliation via being FRAMED for crimes... After having admitted to being drug...

    Neon Genesis Evangelion

    Techni Muyo is a novel which had a straight to DVD adaptation (the OAV series). It was NOT like that at all. In fact the romantic tangle is resolved by ep 4. However it was popular so the corp owning the rights to it hired several different teams to rehash the characters in alternative shows...

    Erin Stout: Sage

    I think the lesson might be more specific than general. She explicitly offered Ultimate Enlightment TM: "Anyone who asks for your money in exchange for ultimate enlightment is just going to take your money and you will not get enlightment in return"

    Conflict of Interest

    It says 'read full article' but I am only seeing a picture. Where is the article?

    Zero Punctuation: The Cave

    The cave sucked. Not only was every single complaint yahtzee made spot on (especially the one about the shallowness of the so called "puzzles"), the game was also plain not funny (even though it tried hard to be). I got exactly half way through on my first play-through before quitting and...
