I actually got pretty far into the game, when it was on Gametap. Then I got stuck at one point...
I looked at a forum walkthrough for the forum. First reply was "Here's what you do. You eject the disc, and you toss it out the window and play something good."

I wholeheartedly thanked him for getting me past that point in the game.

Hey hey hey. Farenheit/Indigo Prophecy's button pressing gameplay worked very well. It's a shame the last third of the game was utter shit, but up to that point it was a masterpiece.
Interactive thrusting during a sex scene was the best use of QTE gameplay ever.

Wowwww...Someone saved up a bunch of bile after finding Portal so excellent. Good show. :)

PS: Looks like Psychonauts will be purchasable on Xbox Live after the next fall update. Now I'll finally get to play it.

When I laugh really hard, my whole face locks up and I can't breath or make any noise at all. That happens when I watch any of your reviews. But this was the first time I actually gurgled.

The only thing I don't like about these things is that they only come out once a week. But hey, quality over quantity, right?

So maybe Roger Ebert was right [http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y5/albumuser/misc/Ebert_videogamessuck.jpg].

Hate to sound even more sad than your 'shenmue' case, but I feel a compulsion to correct THEM. It was FIRST done on Die Hard Arcade, that 3D scrolling beater of about 12 years ago.
I was going to say Dragon's Lair was first, even though it was more point and click with the whole game being a cut scene. But at least in Dragon's Lair it was more fun as you had to frantically move your cursor about the screen to hit all the hot spots in time.

Oh, and may I add that if you really want to see repetitive level design, play PN03. The swirling ass was the only thing that got me through that game.

"I could go on listing the stupid design decisions...so I will."

XD Brilliant review! The only flaw in this one is that it may make me look at some of the others less happily.

Yay! That's the Yahtzee we know and love - snide, sarcastic and brutally honest. I can't wait for next Wednesday!

Yahtzee you charismatic stallion, you've done it again, great review as always mate.

I so love these reviews, i crack myself up everytime i watch one.

And i'd love to see (and i think you guys too) yahtzee to crank up the volume on Assassins Creed and/or Crysis.
These games (just like halo 3) have been rated so daringly high, yahtzee must be able to find
something hilariousely funny to ramble on about!

Fantastic work Mr.Yahtzee, i have been playing Trilby on my way to work (on my lappy in "tiny tiny eye-strain-o-vision) and enjoying it very much.

Excellent Stuff.

Technically Shenmue didn't start the "simon says press left to not die" moronic mini game...
Dragon Lair was, in fact... that's all dragon slayer was... if you'd even call that a game instead of a choose your own adventure cartoon.

Random note, since Yahtzee sets his bar so high for games, I wonder if he's played or is willing to devote a review to 2 of the old greats that nobody's ever heard of: Starflight and Star Control 2, aka The Ur-Quan Masters...should help build up the necessary bile for another round of proper treatment for poorly-designed games.

Good review

Sadly it seems like all the games that have come out lately are focused on graphics rather then a good story line or fun gameplay. The shiny colours and realistic environments have taken over simple fun games with a good plot or decent (I?m not picky) story, The games that we find generally ?Fun?.

P.S. looking forward to the Assassins creed review Quote "Yahtzee you charismatic stallion"

Great review, tell it like it is Yahtzee. I'm guessing the next review will be CoD4 or Hellgate...
