I don't think he was neutral. He essentially pissed on both games. In which case, I am the winner because I can say "well your gamez iz da suk bcuz yotzeh sed it wuz...lololol!!!"wooty said:

Please don't feed the troll, they are only here for our private viewing pleasure and entertainment. Thank god I decided to hop off the CoD wagon, I don't think I cold stand buying the same game for a fourth time...Macrobstar said:
The comments section should be epic, though. There are a ton of ZP fans who think it's all fun and games until he mocks a game they like, at which point the comments tend to explode with "I can't believe he did to this game what he does to every game imaginable!"Leak said:
With Skyrim, I bet it'll be like 200 times as big as normal. The explosion, not the thread.
Yeah, that doesn't really apply to "Battlefield 3", though, because that series started off as a multiplayer game. While I do agree with pretty much all of Yahtzee's criticisms of the game's campaign, I still love that game very much, as its multiplayer blows away any criticism that I may have of the campaign. (The multiplayer is also completely different from CoD's; just putting that out there.)Sonic Doctor said:
Although, both games do have 2-player co-op. You'd think Yahtzee would at least have been able to say SOMETHING about that? :/
I can't help but notice that during that entire review I was unable to differentiate which game he was talking about at any given time. I think that speaks volumes for how terrible and identical both franchises are. Unfortunately I'm not allowed to say that since one of them apparently made more money than god, buddha, and george lucas combined. Because as we all know, sales = quality. /sarcasm
God damn it I can't wait for that whole genre of shooters to just freaking die, or at least be relegated to the same level of importance that is afforded to horror movies.

I like his game idea. For a start, it can end on a high note and with a proper resolution, rather than a milked-for-all-it's-damn-well-worth approach from EA.
Apart from that, I think it would be interesting to make a game that has 50 missions, all constituting an entire story arc and all taking place in the space of 38 minutes. It would be an interesting way to pace gameplay and it would be a neat way of fleshing out the world: Rather than looking through a single guy's eyes the entire game, or maybe jumping between 2 or 3, see the same events and the same conflict from 50 different perspectives.
It would also force some sort of interesting characterisation styles, considering they have 38 minutes to make you care about the people around you.
Also: Obligatory cricket minigame after completing all 50 Campaign missions.

I can't wait for the Shouting jokes...and the fact that a Dragon battle is basically a deadly verbal debate...Sonicron said:"[...], only one question remains unanswered: Why haven't I reviewed Skyrim yet?"
Best laugh I've had in a few weeks.
Now that I've caved and bought Skyrim myself, it'll be even more interesting to see exactly how he'll rip it to shreds.
Fingers crossed for next week xD
OT: Meh, i have MW3 and used like...4 times, and not even for that long, probably gonna trade it in at some point to get...something >.>
However i do wanna try BF3 simply because the Multiplayer is apparently gods gift...
Don't worry Mr. Croshaw, Serious Sam 3 and Saint's Row: The Third are holding out their colorful arms awaiting your approach.
I wonder if he'll get us much pointless stupid retarded fucking hate by twats who can't understand the concept of a different opinion and thus shouldn't ne able understand the concept of breathing as his Space Marine article.
I got directed to a series of videos on YouTube that consist of all of the cutscenes in MW3. In these videos the user was running with the defintion of cutscenes as any on-rail segment where the outcome is essentially guaranteed, which pretty much covers the entire single player campaign. It's surprisingly fun to watch.
Oh, and I too called bullshit when Russia invaded all of Europe at once. Especially when the French felt the need to call in the Americans for the simple job of arresting a guy. I mean, really? Couldn't the French rustle up their own elite squad for this one?

The 90s called, they want their form of sarcasm back. They even lent me this "The X called, they want their Y back" joke to get it back for them.Dexter111 said:
Quick, Ginger!
Now that would make MW3 much better; if you had to play "The Devil's Horseride" while running backwards.
