Zero Punctuation: God of War III

[Shycte]

Nice review but never cared much for God Of War.

 

[scrambledeggs]

So his main gripe is that the game isn't realistic and relatable? I see.

It was funny though

the teddy bear and scorpion image made my day

WTF is wrong with the guys voice on this video? it sucks...

I think Yahtzee wasnt feeling very well when he made this. His voice didnt have the same energy it usually does. Perhaps he has a cold.
Or perhaps hes developed depression. Who knows.

Is it just me or did the story in GOW3 get a bit lazy near the end? Anyway Great review.

Its the usual mythological crap...

wow.

Anyway I agree with the story line being way too drawn out. They do a good job with the game but imo the story is no longer interesting and its no more fun than the original. Games like God of war will sell no matter what, so they make it look shiny and new and put little effort into making it great. Reminds me of what Nintendo has been doing with their systems for the last 15 years.

Hahaaa, a cold in Australia. Isn't Australia like 2 miles from the Sun, or something?

Never played GoW, but I still found this to be one of your best and most fun reviews to date. Keep it up!
Oh, and I hope you'll feel better soon

 

[jamescorck]

Okay, I am confused now. He pretty much mentioned everything he doesn't like of it, but it's "God of War 3" better than any of the other "Like God of War but..." games he reviewed before?

 

[soapyshooter]

he says cake like its bad thing.

LOL, brilliant review as usual but honestly i dont think anyone is playing GoW for the story. More to liquefy anything thats fucking solid using your blades.

 

[the idiot computer]

As always excellent review Yahtzee.

I have to ask is something wrong with your voice?

 

[Hussmann54]

yea as far as yahtzee goes, that game actually got a pretty good review (for counter reference, see super smash bros brawl review)

 

[Audioave10]

Priceless review...they always tickle me.

 

[scudd]

Nice one, hope the cough gets better soon.

Well, finally a review that DOESN'T paint this game in some sort of holy light of the gods. Heheh. But it still seems pretty fun... Not sure I would pick up a PS3 just for that though.

And man, I had no idea Kratos turned into such a dick. I played Chains of Olympus, and he seemed... reasonable in that one.

i agree on u on that one mate, its like he completely lost his fucking mind in this one and turned in to a evil villan that cares only for revenge.
Like u said in Chains of Olympus he seemed like a norma...vell kinda normal in a bloodthirsty way, but he still had sum heroism over in sum of the ways he acted.
But the game was still fucking awesume!^_^

To both qoute and alter a saying from redlettermedia 'What is wrong with your voice?'

 

[Fox242]

Sounds like he's got a sore throat or a cold.

He didn't drop the "Like God of War but" bomb this time... I wonder why...

Because this is God of War. There's no need to drop the "Like God of War but..." on something that is God of War.

Anyway, to the main point of this post. I remember that after people viewed Yahtzee's Assassin's Creed 2 review, there was alot of discussion concerning his voice and how different it was. He then had to devote an Extra Punctuation article explaining why his voice sounded different instead of focusing on something more insightful.

For fuck's sake people, do we really need to keep talking about how his voice is different this time. Yahtzee has already stated that he has a sore throat on a Twitter post and other people here have already pointed that out. Do we need Yahtzee to waste his next Extra Punctuation article on his voice when he could be using it to bring his unique brand of wisdom to us all concerning Kratos' character or the God of War series in general? The answer is no. So please stop talking about his sore throat already!

I was being sarcastic.

Oh. Ok. Shit, now I look like an ass. Sorry for calling you out. I need to start taking things a little less seriously.
