Zero Punctuation: E3 2010

[Yureina]

A little surprised he didn't mention Portal 2, but... i'm sure he will get around to it in time. Overall, another funny movie that kicked the butts of some stuff I honestly don't care for.

I just hope nobody gets the idea to try to add motion controls to PC games. >_>

 

[rebus_forever]

ok, so we get less yahtzee and another glorious opportunity to immerse ourselves in lazy rhymes and week needy vocals, "wit of a bloodhound" are bloodhounds known for their wit? if the had to write a song about an orange it would maybe become more amusingly tenuous.

please refund us the missing 2 mins or so of this weeks review u sly little fox yahtzee, no cutting corners on my watch. i want the enthusiasm i had when i thought this weeks zp was 8 minutes long fulfilled.


please?

 

[LazyAza]

What was with that song at the end? was she trying to be funny?
But eh as for E3, their was some cool stuff. All the focus on motion controllers was pretty annoying though.

Dear escapist : Please shoot that rebecca woman into the sun. If I want to hear shitty pop music, I'd go anywhere but the internet.

Dear Yahtzee : I was kinda hoping you'd do a retroactive review of deus ex in lieu of the 10 year anniversary.

1) What the hell has everyone got against Rebecca Mayes? Stop hating on a talented musician! If you hadn't noticed the song was about Yahtzee, hence why he put it in his show. To be honest, deep down I was kinda hoping that he would have reviewed that at the end instead of just let it play, but there you go.

2) Awesome vid Yahtzee, although the idea of "Video Game Puberty" is kinda scary, as it always leads to awkward sex, something which I doubt video games could take...

3)I know it's been mentioned already, but where was portal 2? Still torn about it I suppose, after all it's a bit hypocritical for a man who disbelieves in sequels and who commented that the shortness of Portal 1 was one of it's good qualities to then positively comment on a video which shows about 3 seconds of true game footage. Yeah, good luck with that one.

Another bloody Kid Icarus too. Can't forget that, Yahtzee.

He had a picture of it in the stack of Nintendo remakes early on. At least I'm pretty sure that's what the angel-boy image was over there in the game pile.

When I realized it was the song tacked onto the end I was hoping there'd be a brief Yahtzee-song-reaction afterward. Ah well. What'd he think of it? The world may never know.

 

[SomeBritishDude]

I come looking for thoughts on Portal 2 and I'm left unsatisfied and frustrated.

Oh Yahtzee you cock tease.

 

[Nurb]

Pretty much true about motion control as a stupid gimmick that companies need to get out of their system. The sad part is that there's nothing really to look forward to outside of the PC because they're too busy masturbating their motion controlers.

Also, why add the song at the end without any sort of clever/cute response?

 

[TheGreenManalishi]

Oi!

I like Raiden.

 

[Giantcain]

]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. >__<

i was also going to say that

 

[BigD145]

That song was the best episode yet.

I'm kidding. It was cool, though.

 

[SniperMacFox]

I've never been mad at Zero Punctuation ever, but god damnit, I'm half way through "A Tale of Two Cities" and I loved it and now it's just lost a bit of it's allure. Thanks alot you dickhead.

You sir, are quite incredible. That's a compliment, by the way. Kinda.

 

[The Lost Big Boss]

couldn't agree more with the controllers comment; there's nothing wrong with them at the moment, and who wants to have to jump around all the time when they're playing games when you can sit on the sofa? On a random note, does anyone else automatically think of full metal jacket whenever they see a drill sargeant's hat?

WHAT IS YOUR MALFUNCTION? DID MOMMY AND DADDY NOT GIVE YOU ENOUGH *Boom*

 

[Anaklusmos]

I was so disappointed when he didn't mention some of the games I am looking forward to. I wish he didn't spend nearly all the episode talking about consoles, instead of the actual games.

Portal 2,
Mortal Kombat,
Kane and Lynch,
Assassin's Creed,
World of Warcraft. (Not sure, but I thought they talked about Cataclysm)

 

[CruelSpider]

Though I never get tired of Zero Punctuation, I was indeed expecting more about E3 but you also have to take into accound you can't squeeze all of E3 into, say, five minutes. We'll probably see stuff about all the potentially good next week or later on.

And as far as the "Love Song for Yahtzee" video went, I was also expecting a retort to that. Don't think he'll take it sitting down..Well..You get the idea. Plus it's not like Yahtzee fans haven't already slammed the video. Like I said above, I'm sure we'll get a very interesting reply in the next few weeks.

 

[GamingAwesome1]

No Portal 2?

I was expecting Yahtzee to have some snide remark about blemishing the original's greatness or something to that effect.

 

[sunami88]

The video was more or less what I was expecting (except no mention of Portal 2). I was a little disappointed to find that it was a song that tacked 4 mins on to this, but it was OK I guess. The "Oooohhhh, didja catch that, guys?" made me lol.

Also, the song was mixed by Ed Wood!? [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_wood] Oh... wait... it's Ed Woods...

 

[neoontime]

No, I thought something interest would come at the end.

 

[Andronicus]

Watching Yahtzee tear through yet another E3 is always enjoyable to watch. Hopefully he'll expand on and include the games he missed in next weeks Extra Punctuation..

Also, I listened to the song at the end hoping for an opinion from Yahtzee. It never came.

 

[CabbageSnake]

Yea, I'm in the same boat as everyone else that expected and wanted 8 minutes then realizing theres a shitty song at the end. =/

 

[Marcus Dubious]

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

Maybe that's why she needs to ride on Yahtzee's success.


I find that her lyrics feel like they were written by a child.
