I'm glad they put this up, for some reason my PC won't download the birthday PDF and I really wanted to read this interview. Thanks Russ!

I would've asked Yahtzee if he could take on Screwattack.com's Angry Video Game Nerd in a fight and win.

Good read.

I guess Yahtzee is quite lucky being on the Escapist (and obviously vice-a-versa too) as a censored ZP would have been wank.

I can't beleive that Yahtzee actually regrets not buying something that was created to help us accept the Star Wars prequals.

I'm glad he's actually a down to Earth normal guy that just got lucky, gives hope to the rest of us... I totally understand his griefs with fans... someone that I don't know talks like that to me I'd probably act like a jerk or just be totally wierded out. If Zero Punctuation didn't appear here I would never have heard of the Escapist and wouldn't be a part of this great community. Kudos to The Escapist staff getting Yahtzee before some evil company did, and kudos to Yahtzee for greatly expanding an online forum board.

Great example of a mutually beneficial relationship if you ask me, Escapist gets popular, Yahtzee gets paid.

Very enlightening. Hmm I never knew that's why he started making ZP. I thought just did just for fun.

But this is still TECHNICALLY bumping their PDF, as good a read as it was.

Maybe he should re-review The Force Unleashed for the PS3 and then compare it to the Wii version.
I have no idea what that game is, but comparing a PS3 and Wii version seems slightly strange, these two consoles kinda have different goals ? Isn't it like comparing Assassin's creed PC version to the Symbian version ?

It was a star wars game, he review the wii version: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/251-Star-Wars-The-Force-Unleashed
but in the interview he said the biggest regret of his ZP career was doing the wii version.
