Zero Punctuation: E3 2010

[Jaebird]

I do believe Yahtzee hit the nail on the head about the saddest thing known to man, also known as gimmicks. I do not want motion controls or 3D, and when those twats in the marketing department off themselves will be the time they realize they've been wasting other people's money pushing crap onto the true target demographic.

 

[JSkunk22]

E3 broke my heart, again. This is fucking pathetic. A new Goldeneye? Really? A NEW Goldeneye? Nintendo is on my shit list, the 360 still fails to excite me, and now the PS3 is just kinda sitting there shrugging.

Though to be fair, Sony had the motion thing before the Wii with the Playstation Eye for the PS2 and stuff. Granted it wasn't as good, but they still had it. I'm not counting the motion crap Nintendo and other parties made for the NES, that stuff didn't work and was flat out stupid.

Also, kudos to the song on the end.

 

[[Cold-Shoulder]]

Great as usual but I am surprised that you didn't mention Portal 2 at all during the video.
I am curious as to see your opinions on it, I hope It'll get mentioned in Extra Punctuation.

FIRST!!!! HAHAHA

BANNED!!!! HAHAHA

Rats. I was hoping to say that. >__<

 

[FiveSpeedf150]

Well, he's right, if anyone can unseat WoW it'll be KOTOR.

 

[wiiwiieddie]

i wish he mentioned something about how microsoft basicly dumped all their fanboys. for the next few mont their going to have an on again of again relationship with great brake up sex sometime around the end of september. then microsoft will realise they were wrong and they will have a heartfelt reunion.

Good video Yahtzee!

But really, I was expecting more anger, more beating down, grrr, grrr, aaaar *murders hopes* It wasn't as brutal as your last year's E3 video, but it was funnier. "Expect to have a bee entering the room and have your character throwing grenades all over the place..." I had to stop the video, the laughter didn't let me concentrate.

 

[Betancore]

This is the only E3 summary/review/rundown I needed to watch, Yahtzee delivers!
And I'm sure that was very satisfying for all those waiting for a response to Rebecca Mayes' song.

 

[Sansha]

Very good, although Rebecca Mayes is annoying as fuck, not funny at all.

Everyone's thinking it, Shotgunjoe said it.

 

[RMcD94]

Not even a response to the video. I am disappoint.

Was it just me or was this uploaded late?

And I'm sure that was very satisfying for all those waiting for a response to Rebecca Mayes' song.

There was a response? Where?

 

[Harlemura]

A limerick reply to the song would've been awesome! A song which wasn't that bad, you miserable sods, you.

Although it was as good of a Zero Punctuation as usual, I can't help but feel it was more of Yahtzee's view on motion controls than the actual show.

 

[thegamingbrit]

AHHHH., I see you finally mentioned metroid. I always wandered why you left metroid prime 3 out of you super star 2007 reviews. What the best game on the wii just seemed a little bit intimidating if nintendo had made it? Out of all the nintendo franchise that keeps on coming out metroid is the only one that keeps on doing somthing different in each game which is why it is a very good franchise to drool over.

 

[BlueHighwind]

That song at the end was incredibly awesome.

 

[Cynical skeptic]

Ugh! I thought I'd never have to hear "kinest/kinset"" pronounced correctly! Now I'll need work harder to mispronounce it every chance I get.

 

[TheEnglishman]

I actually thought you might reply to that song for a second, but oh well.

Anyway, motion controllers, who needs them, the Wii games I play don't even require them.

 

[Mr. Socky]

Very good, although Rebecca Mayes is annoying as fuck, not funny at all.

I didn't find it annoying... just really, really boring. Especially after the awesomeness that is watching everything I love and care about get torn to shreds.

 

[yourbeliefs]

Somewhat weak. I was hoping for some more thoughts on the actual GAMES that were announced, and the whole thing ended rather abruptly.

And Christ, the way people reacted to Rebecca's song, you'd think they were forcibly subjected to listening to a cat drown. You weren't FORCED to watch it you know. You could have just done like I did and stopped playing the video.

 

[black-magic]

All true but what I really wanted to see was his answer to Rebecca.

 

[antipunt]

*reads comments*

Yeah, I suspected this. Rebecca is a musician with talent, but the appeal of her music is extremely bipolar. Stuffing her video into the end of ZP is going to earn her quite a bit of ridicule rather than praise, because most of her fans are already following her videos on her own page. There are a multitude of people who find her music distasteful, and many of them watch ZP/stopped following her videos.

And wow, yes, Kinectamals came straight from the pits of hell. That demented glare, jeebus...

 

[Piecewise]

Why do we still have that singing chick on here? She's not clever, funny or talented in any way. Can't we just junk her and pretty much 90% of the crap on here and keep only yahtzee and the loading ready run guys?

 

[Blackjack 222]

FIRST!!!! HAHAHA

When are people going to relise doing this gets you a ban.

OT: loved what he said about the Playstation Move XD

But yeah, i never liked motion controls on the Wii and i'm not going to like them on the PS3 or Xbox either.

When they read rules(or use common sense) so never.
