Yahtzee's Prototype vs. InFamous Challenge

[RavingPenguin]

God, to actually think they would do it.... its just... just.. way to awesome. I didnt think Yahtzee pulled that kind of power. Maybe gaming corporations do acutally listen to the guy. Now if only they payed more attention to him.

 

[DoctorWhat]

That is one of the most awesome things I have ever seen. Not the pictures themselves, just that they actually did it.

Yahtzee, you have a helluva lot more influence in the gaming world than I previously thought possible; first Valve, now this...

 

[randommaster]

This was totally awesome. I don't think anybody expected this, except for that guy who got reported for suspecting it.

I'm now glad that I'v stayed up untill 3 AM for no reason.

 

[Zayren]

Can't believe they actually did it. I guess they're bored with all the bucket loads of money they're making...

 

[FoOd77]

I applaud both developers for having a sense of humor and playing along with Yahtzee's little game! And teehee, the InFamous one was hilarious.

 

[doctorjackal777]

I surprised they not only actually made the pictures but that they actually watched your review and took it seriously. 'Oh not that guy with a hat reviewed us and couldn't decided if we were better than that other game, lets pander to his desire to get a non existent prize.' Seriously I doubt Zero Punctuation actually helps or hinders anyone's games sales, other than a few people who were curious, like I bought Saints Row, because he said it was so much better than GTA, and it was but never mind. Zero Punctuation to me has always been a humorous little someone showing one mans opinions regarding the games he plays and it certainly gets this site more traffic, but I've never considered them to be serious review that would actually mean anything. He's like the AVGN or TGWTG, entertainers who enjoy ragging on something or other but who's opinions don't really affect the industry in which they review.

 

[IntoxicatedKnight]

As if...he did it. Wow Sucker Punch and Radical bow down to Yahtzee!

 

[Chipperz]

Well, I guess this settles it - whoever loses this little fight, we all win!

That was hilarious and I have a whole lot more respect for both developers now. I may actually find myself getting inFamous to go with my [Prototype] now

 

[MorphingDragon]

Words can not describe its grace.

XD L

Nor can smileys.

 

[rowan-thats-me]

hmmm, atleast now we know how strange some of thye gaming coumpanies really are

 

[Calax]

*thinks* actually the "weaker" one submitted by the Prototype team seems to have just taken the cover of Infamous, and pasted a bad 3d model over Cole's body. On the second one, Cole just looks like a hooker (and why does he have a womans face tattooed on his thigh? Seriously...)

Alex Mercers looks like it got overall better work done on it.

You know, this is a very misleading article. I liked it, and I appreciate the candor of each team actually doing this (if it is in fact true that this happened as we were told) for the good fun in it. However, I hope that I'm not in a minority when I say that this article is as hard to follow as the invisible man at a nude beach...

I get it, the Prototype team did one of the dude from Infamous and vice versa... Hard to structure this without confusing the audience. But kudos anyway Yahtzee.

 

[Aiden Rebirth]

HOLY F###ING S##T!!! this is awesome...

 

[Citrus]

Well, that delivered.

Seriously I doubt Zero Punctuation actually helps or hinders anyone's games sales

Valve called yahtzee after his reveiw of Painkiller to tell him downloads on steam had tripled after his reveiw......

Unicorns FTW! Has anyone told Susan yet?

 

[Jumplion]

...Sucker Punch is officially my favorite game developer of all time.

I'm tempted to put up Cole's picture as my wallpaper...

Kudos to both Radical and Sucker Punch, you guys are awesome!

 

[Russ Pitts]

Unicorns FTW! Has anyone told Susan yet?

This all came together quite rapidly today. I don't think she's seen it yet. You'll know it when she does, I'm sure.

 

[Spirultima]

I can safely say Sucker Punch and Free Radical are both EARNED my money, and i will continue to buy to say how awesome those pictures are XD.

All hail Yahtzee, king of game devs !!

 

[JordanMillward_1]

Fucking.

Awesome.

 

[Arcanz]

Amazing, they actually did it. Like most people have already said, thought it was just another awesome joke. Think we're all a bit surprised, including Yahtzee himself. This whole article made me giggle, from the title to the very last word.
Just awesome.
