Unskippable guy sounded like he was doing a commercial, or like he is a football commentator. He was still funny, though...in a retards point of view. (Basically cause he imitates Yahtzee in a stupid way)

That was my favourite in a long, long time. Didn't stop laughing the entire way through.

"RTS nerds take this as an invitation"
Ok I will.

A) Console RTS's blow. They just don't work well, if at all. Choosing one to introduce yourself to the genre was like choosing to take meth cut with Drano to get an idea of what being high is like.

B) RTS's very wildly within the genre. One extreme is the base builder, with mass's of units where "micro" is relatively less important and any given unit is very unimportant. The embodiment of this is Supreme Commander. Large scale, economy heavy etc. The counterpoint is are RTS's (sometimes called RTT (real time tactics)) that focus on a very small number of units, with very little base building where the focus is on units, and controlling them instead of your economy. Company of Heroes or Dawn of War II are excellent examples of this.

C) You will probably most enjoy the later from your description of what you dislike about RTS's. Relic (as the current march mayhem polls show) is an excellent developer for this. Take the opportunity to review Dawn of War II or the new Company of Heroes expansion Tales of Valor.

The only thing that caught me off guard was the reference to Battle Royale, I thought he didn't like anime

Hey, the imps can talk! Sort of!

...I don't know why that's the part that stuck in my head even though the rest of the review terrific (probably my favorite since the Gears of War review), including the Unskippable guy at the beginning.

You know, those advertisements for Unskippable that showed up on the videos a while ago were decidedly unwhelming, but...maybe I'll give it a chance. S'how I found ZP, after all.

Wasn't it a novel first?

hey unskippable was a pretty good take off of the Yahtzee style, and in turn the imp thing was a great spoof of "powered by the Cheat". Top marks.

i love zero puncation and how the "review" is very true he hasnt worked out the right trigger button yet. when all units are selected tap it to cycle through the units like hornets and marines. That f***ing flood mission is a great big huge 2 by 4 up my a**.
i failed the mission 4 times over silly things. please do a full review and finish the campain the last cutscene and how it ends is realy worth it also you get to drive the best unit in the game at one point the covent scarab

Without the British accent something just seemed lacking to the whole rant. The accent just adds a feeling of superiority which makes whoever messed up the game sound like a dumb ass.

i think they're loosing it to be honest, the last review wasnt that funny and using old jokes was lame, in this review all he seemed to do was swear, swearing is easy: Fck! Fuketty, FUK FUK FUK!
A monkey could do it, okay only certain monkeys could do it but none the less my point stands:

YAHTZE IS LOOSING IT

:(

I hope the reviews get back on track, maybe he should take like a month break to come up with fresh and fine material ????

:/
