Zero Punctuation: FIFA 13

[Erttheking]

That was confusing but fucking hilarious. So, taking bets here, is it going to be Dishonored or XCOM next week?

 

[Matthi205]

This review sums up my feelings on the whole FIFA series perfectly.

 

[dragongit]

Sums up about most all EA sports games. Take ball, and score. Almost anything else is more interesting.

I'm iffy about either because he says it takes him 10 days to make a video and they just came out yesterday. I'll put 20 on Dishonored though.

EDIT: Wait, make that RE6.

 

[GAunderrated]

Might check out the Mark of the Ninja.

BTW where is the RE6 review yathzee? I know Indie games provide more than enough variety for the reviews but without the usual jab at the mainstream AAA market, It somehow feels incomplete.

gotta give the man another week at least to torture himself with RE6. I mean we all know its basically everything he hates about games (crap story, cover base shooting, QTE's up the bum) so I can't blame him for procrastinating that turd.

Okay, this was even a speed-record for Mr. Motormouth. 8 Seconds to review Fifa 13? Alrighty... normally, I would have expected him to cover the game in a bit less than a minute and THEN go to the other games. But this is still rather impressive.

 

[Random Argument Man]

Also, I wouldn't call Fifa 2013 a game, more a full priced update.

Oh I cringe when people say that about sports games.... Actually, I don't know about the FIFA license, but it certainly isn't true about the NHL license.

Second best thing I've seen today, especially since I was semi-interested in Anna. Best was getting an email from Amazon saying Jam's estimated arrival would be 9 days earlier.

 

[Mikeyfell]

This just replaced Tales of Monkey Island as my favorite ZP review ever

 

[MonkeyPunch]

I would have been flabbergasted if Yahtzee would really have reviewed FIFA.

Also, smirked at the High-score list. Two of those I would have included too ^_^
Was that also the most heart warming review of FIFA 13 you've ever heard? Burly friends help a small leather sphere realise it's dream of living in a net *tear drop*

 

[Metalrocks]

had an interest with anna since i want to give indie developers a chance but after watching some game play vids on youtube, it was boring and the puzzles really dint make sense. many reviews i was able to find said the same ting.

and fifa is fifa. whats there to talk about.

 

[Andy Shandy]

I quite enjoyed this one, although I'll say it was also tinged with a little bit of disappointment, as I would've quite liked to see Yahtzee try to do a full review of FIFA somehow. It would be interesting at least.

 

[Poisoned Al]

"FIFA 13 is a game."

Yep, that pretty much sums it up nicely.

 

[CronoT]

Great fifa review. That part about the... The...

Crap, too tired to make a good joke.

...

Good video, I laughed. <3

Well then, I'll do it for you:

*clears throat*

"See, even people who LIVE in Soccer countries don't give a shyte about Soccer video games, much less EA."

Okay, done.

;-)

Alright, who the hell thought it was a good idea to put a footnote feature on a message board?[footnote]Because it's totally going to be abused by anyone who like to put lots of parentheses in their posts but wants them to be cleaner.[footnote]Essentially, me.[footnote]Isn't that just grand?[/footnote][/footnote][/footnote]

Considering his love for stealth-based games, my money's on Dishonored.

 

[Antonio Torrente]

Next week, watch Yatzhee verbally destroy Resident Evil 6.

I would rather see XCOM. Should he have played the original, then he clearly goes for that rather with Dishonored.
Or maybe he does both.
Tho next weeks VIDEO will be RE6 and the week after XCOM/Dishonored (as they came out this week. I always give him one week to play and one week to make the review-video)

 

[Bishop99999999]

And now all of a sudden I can't help but imagine that all protagonists in first person horror adventure titles look like Mr. Bean.

Thanks dick.

 

[C F]

Wow.
Aside from Portal, FIFA has to have the least negative criticisms from Yahtzee so far.
Congratulations EA Sports! You must be flying high with this completely objective statistical analysis. Now go pat yourselves on the back while I play Minecraft or something.

Ah, but I'll admit it would have been amusing if he did review it.
