Zero Punctuation: Dark Void

[Canadamus Prime]

Actually even the jetpack thing has been done before too, in an old PC game quaintly entitled 'Jetpack'.

 

[Weese]

Lol, that was the bacon flow chart he used.
Great review, made me laugh.

 

[asskicker2005]

Next week should be a flashback review of Rune: Viking Warlord.

 

[Jallis370]

I think that might be the best one yet. I have no idea about the game or anything, but the way this review kept flinging me into walls of smart remarks held me 97% in shock.

Either that or I'm easily amused since I haven't slept for 24h..

It took me four days to check this video (Mass Effect 2 is to blame) but that was a great review Yahtzee. I wonder how that final boss battle would have looked like. It's weird to find a game that ends before the final boss. Any ideas how could that be?

 

[Belbe]

Hahaha, don't think anyone likes this game.

Womp womp womp, as my bf would say.

 

[Chaotic Control]

Flight of the Amazon Queen was an AWESOME game, ahh the memories! I think i should look up this "Snatcher" game, yay for obscure references!

 

[ziggy161]

I'm surprised iron man wasn't mentioned o_o

But I loved the last analogy there, 'alzheimer's patient on a stairlift' made me laugh so hard XD

 

[Saxon-Mercenary]

Did I see the Bacon Flow Chart in there?

 

[RAAAAAR]

He almost got my full name in there.

I will love you forever if you just type one more A next time.

Inspiration o meter was a nice touch. Frankly I'm surprised he wasn't more harsh on this game. I was very excited for it, then I sat down to play and found out it was a pile of stinking shit. Absurdly terrible controls, shitty graphics, obnoxious battlestar galactica music, characters with less appeal than a transvestite hooker carrying syphilis, worst cover system ever, blah blah blah the list goes on.

Great review none the less.

 

[khaimera]

that review was funny. Post count +1

Seriously, reading the comments for these videos makes me want to run far away from this place and the internet. I have a generic opinion, woo hoo. I do to. Lets talk about it.

 

[REZNoR_greed]

on the Inspiration-O-Meter u missed for flying around in a jetpack Star Wars Bounty Hunter.

or The Rocketeer

The Worst game ever reviewed was "Too Human". So Sonic the Hedgehog even fails at being the worst?

 

[achilleas.k]

Watching it a second time I realised I missed the play on the Dead Space character's name the first time.
Doing a quick search through the thread no one commented on it. I'm feeling quite cocky now, to be honest.

Lol, respect!

Love the fact that he's able to hold a grudge for so long...

Great review, good bloodsplatter and usual banter. How many more GoW ripoffs before Bioshock 2?

 

[spamhibiki]

i really had high hopes after following this game.

 

[Persnicketese]

An alternative world where the Napoleonic Wars have people riding pterodactyls? I know something close. The Temeraire series by Naomi Novik. Except instead of pterodactyls they're riding dragons, which I think, is much cooler. If only they'd make a game like that.

Anyway great review yet again.

 

[Cyanide Christ]

Thanks yahtzee, you saved me 60 bucks once more

I'd say you should be careful with listening to reviews too closely for all your purchasing decisions, especially those by Yahtzee. While he may be technically a game critic, his work often lacks the depth to really detail whether or not a game is worth the mention.

As well as that, part of his charm is his subjectivity. The issue comes from the fact that subjectivity is the sort of thing that needs to be put aside for game reviews. It's subjectivity that made Yahtzee speak a little too favorably on Psychonauts, and a little too harshly on Brutal Legend. That same subjectivity manages to paint every review he's made.

So, you're welcome to take his opinion. Just do so with a grain of salt, and looking around at other reviewers as well. It never hurts to have a wide opinion.

Ofcourse I use my handy bag of salt with Yahtzee's work, however I do tend to agree on the points he pics out in the games I've played so far.

Still, according to yahtzee, I'm a fat 50 year old (or something like that) because i love the total war series XD

 

[cj_iwakura]

How about a Snatcher review?

And that's not obscure.

You want obscure, try Xyanide.
