Zero Punctuation: 2.5D Hoedown

[Yahtzee Croshaw]

2.5D Hoedown

This week, Zero Punctuation reviews 'Splosion Man and Trine.

Watch Video

 

[Chunko]

Wow, this is a great video, I lol'd, the title was a bit confusing though, I like the videos when Yahtzee reviews Xbox live arcade games, the bit when he was talking about the character of splosion man was funny, i never thought of it that way

 

[DoctorWhat]

I now want the wizard in Trine to look like the one in this video

 

[T-Bone24]

Doesn't Splosian man have avatar unlockabales?

I beat the game with all achievements, and I still don't have no avatar unlockables.

 

[Spleenboy]

You can have half a dimension >.>

 

[Diablini]

Man I loved The Lost Vikings.

 

[Arkhangelsk]

I played Splosion Man, and he's right, it does lose ideas after a while that the game is just annoying. And I'm not sure here, did he or did he not like Trine?

 

[SyphonX]

Both games seem rather uninspiring. I'd rather just sit in the closet and fart all day, maybe read a few books at the same time. How's that for multitasking TRINE?!

 

[Remleiz]

Has trine actually been released yet over psn? or did yahtzee get a 'pre release copy'? or somthing...

anyhow personally i dont see the resemblance between portal and 'splosion man, just because they're set in futuristic labs, but hey, your call

 

[MistaSmegheneghan]

A good one this week.

 

[METC]

Yay! It's Splosion Man time! Great review, Yahtzee.

 

[Mr. Shoggoth]

Brilliant episode, but here's a good question:

If this episode was dedicated to 2.5D games for the XBLA...where in the world is Shadow Complex? I thought that one was actually a lot better than these two.

 

[knight56]

Sounds like something I'd get into if I had surplus money that I wasn't saving up for other games. (Am I ironic or just obsessed?)

 

[VanityGirl]

yay for splosion man, kind of like portal, but lamer. haha.
although i may have to give trine a shot.. hmm. good review.

 

[Armored Prayer]

Wait, 'Splosion man takes place in a lab and there's cake and music at the end.

I smell a copier.

 

[risingphoenix]

The Trine review was hilarious.
The wizard seems to be hacks. I'm gonna have to try it out. How long was the gameplay?
"The internet has clearly desensitized you to retarded sexualization."

 

[neoman10]

Doesn't Splosian man have avatar unlockabales?

I beat the game with all achievements, and I still don't have no avatar unlockables.

you have to beat 10 levels without stopping

1.40-2.00 - absolutely hilarious.
