Zero Punctuation: Assassin's Creed 2

[NickCaligo42]

I love how everyone's flailing about the new voice. We must be memorized by its melodic qualities to the point that we begin withdrawal immediately upon its loss.

I don't care if it's a new voice or not, I just want to know why. -_o I spent the entire review wondering if it was actually Yahtzee or if he let Yug or some other buddy of his do a guest review.

 

[PS2MAN]

On a side note, I'm amazed at how many people are still wondering about this.

And I just checked. This is pretty much tone-for-tone how he sounded in his review of The Darkness. Either that, or my ears are faulty, or my speakers (and headphones) are faulty.

They are faulty if you think just because someone talks at the same speed they sound exactly the same. Using your "Logic" everyone who talks slow sounds like Microsoft Sam because pitch is not a factor.

yahtzee what's up with your voice do you have a chest cold?
anyway good vid.

 

[Mstrswrd]

Are you sick, Yahtzee? You sounded odd.

Assassin's Creed 2

This week, Zero Punctuation reviews Assassin's Creed 2.

Watch Video

I am ever so happy this has been done as this is my Game of the Year! and he was amusingly positive about it, three cheers. It is funny when he has to kind of reach for complaints.

Having seen the video I will now see what all the commoners [commenters?] have to say about game and review of said game.

 

[dfcrackhead]

Would have been a funny review if not for the constantly nagging thought "wtf is wrong with his voice? did I miss the announcement that there would be some new gimmick this week or a guest star doing it????"

 

[Kenshuku]

I don't like this new sounding voice

So I'm not alone...

Yahtzee sounds different this week. Maybe he has a new microphone?

 

[Chaos Theory]

what happend to his voice??

 

[Lazy Kitty]

Has Yahtzee been replaced by the voice actor of that alien in American Dad or something?

 

[YYZed]

just like everyone else the voice was wierd...but the review was still really good.

 

[habribo]

Whatever mic he's using, I hate it.

 

[mikecoulter]

I think it was down to a better mic this week.

 

[orangeapples]

Wow, I guess he liked it. It isn't super amazing good (Prince of Persia Trilogy), but it isn't bad (Prince of Persia 2008). It seems like a game that is worth the $65 I guess I'll pick it up when I get money.

I love how PoP is both the good and bad watermarks for Yahtzee.

 

[Salem_Wolf]

Awesome video, as always, funny and informative, that's the way it should be. The only problem was the ending, while the gun isn't very fair, it hardly is able to be used with the amount of time it takes to aim, which is quite the balancer considering the short time a group of guards attack.

But an always epic video, the game was definitely worth the playthrough (and second playthrough) and I can't wait until next Wednesday for the next Zero Punctuation.

Oh, and that Escapist watermark really bugged the hell out of me, I'd hope that wasn't a permanent feature of your videos considering you've been here for years, but somehow, I see it staying.

 

[emmyohemmy]

Are you sick or something, whats up with your voice?

 

[Squidwogdog]

I like the new voice, sounds classy, like Jude Law

 

[Versipellis]

Hmm, since Yahtzee couldn't find much earth-shaking stuff to complain about, I'm really looking forward to picking up Assassin's Creed II. Also, new mic, new voice, oooh, blah blah blah.

I, too, am quite keen on gnocchi, especially in cream sauce. Mmm.

 

[101194]

I couldn't enjoy this as much as I should have, Your voice was fucked up.

 

[something_clevar]

Voice, etc.

 

[I Max95]

I don't like this new sounding voice

Yeah, what's with the new voice?

im pretty sure his "new voice" is the one he used for his first few reviews
