Hm.
I feel that the comment about it being my fault wasn't nessecary. Its fair to say that the problem for all the poo on the games is down to the public buying too much of the rubbish, but most of yahtzee's viewers are gamers who play proper games and occasionally get the casual-person game.
And I myself have only played Gears of War once. Against my own will.
Now tell us your top 5 games of all time you wonderful git.
;D

Good review. The first minute or so had me worried it would be another rant on the community here, but thankfully he pulled it back out and made a very balanced and fair review.
I'm still not in love with the game though. I can't help but shake the feeling I played it as a freeware game on my PC like 10-12 years ago. The controls felt uber stiff to me as well, but that might just be because I suck at it, which is entirely possible.
Still, after Castle Crashers begins to wear on me (if it ever does), I might pick this up during the next gaming drought.

1. You guys have Julia Sawalha, that's worth a few extra pounds right there.Meneguzzi post=6.69741.669858 said:

This is exactly the kind of snotty smarty pants shit yahtzee was talking about. Portal doesn't hold your hand storywise, maybe that makes me pants on my head retarded but it certainly leaves itself open. Theres a difference between leaving your story open for interiptation and just blatanly hiding it. There was sod all to go. What there was was nice but there wasn't nearly enoughBabeman post=6.69741.670170 said:
I'm Adrienne... and I'm very, very afraid. I mean, how did Yahtzee *know* that I was single-handedly responsible for the downfall of the video games industry? Did he put a webcam up in my house? How did he get all the way to Canada from his perfect Australian beach?
This is going to keep me up nights.

Argh, I watched a gameplay video of this game and thought "Wait, so what's the point?" Guess I never got to the time-manipulating stuff.
I loved the part about blaming gamers for the games we get, because it's pretty much true. We can all stop bashing EA until we stop buying their games. Nowadays every time I see someone yell "WANT!" after watching a prerendered, non-gameplay-related trailer for something, I go to Yahoo Questions and once again ask "Are you SURE no one has invented a way to stab people in the face over the internet???"

Well this is funny.
About three days ago I saw a friend of mine playing some game called "Braid". I messaged him and was all, "What the hell is that?"
He said pretty much said this review, without all the joking asides. Didn't see that coming!

Firstly, great as always. Secondly, in the 2 door one key part, if you messed up wouldn't you just go back in time to when you had the key and do the other door? (P.S. Don't have Braid, so can be missing something. If so, explain)(P.S.S. I know about the walk one way, time goes foward, walk the other, blah de blah de blah, and that would be the only place where you would have to start over, theroraticly (Read P.S.. If you haven't read it yet, why in the world are you reading down here?).)
About the graphics, there are really three graphic types.
Realistic: Crysis (When the tech to play the recommended comes out, it'll look great)
Semi-realistic: Metal Gear Solid 4
Beautiful: Okami
DEVELOPERS! In my honest opinion, Okami had the best graphics there (MGS4 takes the gold for FPS and TPS). The don't have to be Crysis level. People, please agree with me so that they may be swayed.

Glee! A Return to form. Some excellent humour and a bit more thought.
Still got that shitty intro though.
