He does bring up a good point when he mentions the lack of driving AI. There are so many games that do that and it ruins the whole idea of branching choices for gameplay. Especially when the AI cant keep anyone off you and you die despite your driving ability.

So many great points about how shoehorned CO-OP/multiplayer ruins games. Developers and Publishers need to take it off their damn checklist of features. It is really destroying gaming lately.

So last week Yahtzee was attacking people who defend classic FPS games, and this week he's defending classic FPS games? Jesus.
When did that happen?

Yahtzee, you flamboyant bon vivant. You ARE being nostalgic. Being nostalgic don't mean be "blind all time". Sometimes there's reason behind the nostalgia.

Why do I get the feeling Yahtzee is stalling?
It seems like there are one or two titles he doesn't want to review yet because he either thinks "this might be really enjoyable" or, far more likely, because he thinks "this will be utter shit". Either way he can get passionate about it, so like a real gourmet he's saving the best bit for the last bite. :D

Don't worry, Yahtzee, Deus Ex 3 comes closer and closer and from the looks of it, it's gonna be a fun ride, if you don't get tired of the palette. But I'm sure you won't. Zero Punctuation uses the same colors after all. :p

I thought the review was just, you know, a good yahtzee review. Then I saw the inserted picture of the Sergant Pepper's albbum. This review is now my favorite

Only just thought of this: was this Yahtzee's 200th Zero Punctuation? It would be quite apt considering his 100th...

Oh, it gets worse. I'm honestly surprised this didn't make it into the episode (time restraints, I suppose) but this is the most racist, ignorant, disrespectful piece of shit AAA game that I've ever heard of.

Achievements for killing black people. The laziest stereotypes ever made. BLATANT misinformation, horrific implications and an overall disgusting treatment of an ONGOING war that has KILLED 40,000 PEOPLE. Just...aarrgh.

Despite the fact I loved the Cartel (At least in co-op. I panned the single player), everything you said was 100% accurate.

EC's evisceration of this game is, if anything, far more brutal than anything Yahtzee comes out with, but I can't help feeling they were expecting too much of it going in. I guess I automatically expect shooters to trivialise any real world event they touch upon.
