Your favorite Zero Punctuation review

[Kadoodle]

Like the title says. Which review up 'till now did you enjoy the most, and why.

For me it has to be the review of 50 Cent: Blood on the sand. It wasn't even about the game; instead, Yahtzee took the time to talk about political correctness and he hits every goddamn nail on the head.

"Let's just make a nice little disclaimer to hang over the rest of the review: No, I'm not racist, you knee-jerk lemon-scented pussy-wipes! Believe me, anyone who pulls their pants down around their knees, blows all their money on jamming diamonds into their teeth while living in a slum, and treats women like dogs you can put your knob in ? they are just as much a ridiculous, poisonous fuckhead whether they're black or white. It's very depressing when you can't make honest cultural commentary without having to disavow the assumption that your feelings are motivated by an irrational hate-trigger response to different levels of melanin. You know what? A society where anyone can make jokes about anyone else and everyone laughs is a truly tolerant society. Political correctness-charged censorship only serves to engender resentment and distance between social groups."


So which review is your favorite, Escapists?

 

[NerfedFalcon]

Whichever is the newest one, because clearly anything in the same series that came out before its latest iteration is nowhere near as good.

Actually, probably Call of Juarez: The Cartel simply for its funniest line. Three guesses which that is. First two don't count.

 

[Krantos]

Honestly, the Resistance 3 review is one of the funniest he's done, imo.

However, I think I enjoyed either the Splinter Cell Conviction (which I loved, btw) or his original Fable: TLC review the most.

I love it when he takes apart games I like, but the image of the Dragon chewing on his bits while he repeatedly bapped it on the head yelling "Yah!" was hilarious.

Is the answer "There is no middle finger big enough!"?
OT: Probably SSBB mailbag showdown or Bayonetta.

Clearly, you bought this game for the Xbox.


There are large (up to 50 players, hoihoihoi) and full servers all over for the PC; oh, and guess what? I got the map pack free with a patch. I did play MW2 the other weekend at some friend's house, and it was amusing because I destroyed all of them despite not even owning the game. It's literally the same as all the other ones.

I get that you were being sarcastic, but I felt the need to say something I found relatable and hey- isn't that why forums exist?

Probably the Pain Killer episode if I had to pick a specific one.

Though a close second would be the too human one.

EDIT: The minecraft one is good too.

Wrong. I bought it for PC, but since I bought it hardcopy, all the servers I found were either dead, clan-dominated or 'BOLT SNIPERS ONLY' And the thing about being a guest on a clan server is that they have a lot of weird rules, like 'no LMG', that you don't know about and get kicked as soon as you discover that.

No, they are not; I've never encountered any of that.

Did you get all the way up to patch 1.7? You need to google around and DL them manually (iAlso have a hard-copy); there are servers a-plenty, and I've only encountered rules like that one a few years ago (they didn't like Last Stand, but they warned me about that).


EDIT: To be precise from the jewlcase CD you will need to get and install 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, and 1.7 in that order (or at least that's what I had to do).

 

[MortalForNow]

Personally, it's the either Halo Wars for Yahtzee's freakout over the timed mission or the Dead to Rights: Retribution review for all the intentionally cheesy action-movie style lines he throws regarding the game. If I had to pick one, it would probably be the Halo Wars one because the ending is probably the one Zero Punctuation moment that never fails to make me laugh.

 

[Tartarga]

For me it's a tie between the Painkiller and the Shadow of the Colossus review. Both where really funny and had several quotable lines.

 

[PhoenixKing]

The Guitar Hero: World Tour episode simply because of the Deus Ex song at the end.

 

[-Fishbulb-]

The review to Brink.

Take a shot.

 

[Zeema]

i personally like the DNF review [the fake one]

its so funny

How did nobody say "Wolfenstein" yet?
