Not going to complain about the rerun, but I am really annoyed with the tacked-on trailers at the end that are disguised as part of the episode.

What the fuck Yahtzee? Re-run? Why didn't you just tell us to go watch the old console rundown episode? It's so old it isn't even relevant anymore. I'm dissapointed in you.

Maybe he was excited that Guns of the Patriots, is coming out and did bother making a new one this week until he played it? He probably already has it now since it is already the 12th in Australia and is waiting in line to pick up his copy. Like the rest of us who will wait for something big (ex. sitting outside for a week for a new console or the people waiting at the doors at the local Game Shop at midnight to pick up their reserved copy of GTA IV). I know I would...

Wile there may be a difference, it's still not enough to justify getting new and expensive hardware........ unless your obsessed with having a pimp player that doesn't get much content.

A re-run? Funny... but not as funny as when I watched it back in August 2000 and F***ing 7!

Escapist... this is not good.
If I wanted to watch Console Wars I'd just look at the one posted on, the current page 3...

Poor.

I doubt he's been in NY all week. Probably takes him 2-3 days to do a ZP and last time I checked there are 7 days in a week

Blu-Ray isn't just for HD movies, a single-layer Blu-Ray disc can hold up to 25Gb and double layer 50Gb.

It's worse than filler; it's a REPEAT! It's not like we don't watch the vidoes more than once.
But I only just got the Blue Ray Charles joke...

I thought I was going crazy and now knew the future, but it is a fucking repeat! What the shit?

This, I believe, was one of Yahtzee's best. At the risk of sounding like an after school special, this one had the most heart.

meh, they should just have posted "sry, no new ZP this week, just waste your time with the ones you already saw".

Oh, and I see a difference between BluRay and DVD. Whether that difference justifies spending money on a player for that or not is mainly up to your taste and your TV. I do rent the BluRay version of a movie if I have the choice because I actually see a difference and depending on the quality of the release it can be pretty drastic. As I watch films on my PC screen and sit something from 50 to 80cm away from that I can absolutely make out the difference and people with big enough TVs should be able to do so, too. But I think a 30" TV placed 3 meters away from you could make it hard to spot the difference in reality, though.

everyone, i recommend that we all calm down and focus on the fact that this is the internet, just because you demand it with all your nerdy prowess, doesnt mean you'll get it. So stop complaining. To be fair, i was a little confused, but after discovering this, i was a little disappointed, as i was rather looking forward to my weekly dose of misogynistic sarcasm, or should i say charm?... no, i'll stick with sarcasm, sounds less girly.

But i suppose i can wait another week, like THE REST OF US, so chill, and just wait.
