That would last about 5 minutes. after minutes of the EvE trial myself I was ready to commit suicide by slamming my head through the screen. and this is Yahtzee, some often jokes about how confusing and bad PC game's UI design is, EvE is must be the ULITMATE example of this. I am a PC gamer and even I gave up on trying to figure how to play that game swiftly.Take_Opal said:
what's with the weird long ad for something totally unrelated or comical at the end? that sucks.
Didn't Yahtzee claim to have never played Halo in his review of Halo 3? I think his references should stick to games he's actually played.
He also shouldn't complain about there being no games to review since he has recently taken to reviewing games that are months or years old.
But should and will are different words for a reason, whatever it takes to make a good joke.

I liked the "Neon Genesis Evangelion" reference and am pretty disappointed no one has picked up on it yet. A great review as always.
Some sort of reference to everyone's favorite troubled 'pilot of giant robot' teenage protagonist in there?
And damn you people, it was Starship-Troopers that started the whole power armor thing not warhammer.

Yahtzee you devilish superman, now I have to break into the next convenient store and fetch me some Cornettos.
Overall, great review. Yes, it is a bit short but I attribute that solely on his increased speed, a little too fast for my taste this time. Unfortunatly, FPSes tend to do the same mistakes over and over again: Retarded NPC-AI, crappy vehicle sections, uninspired story and the coffee-realistic graphics. Kudos to Yahtzee - after all he manages to mention the same flaws in every FPS review (since FPSes are more or less the same anyway with a very small number of true gems) but always wrapped in a new shiny giftwrap paper of funny bile. I would have stopped reviewing FPSes months ago.
That said: Where are the RTS games? Would be a nice change of pace.

That was a bit short, but otherwise I enjoyed the review.
I HATED my collegues in other FPS games too, they are always jackasses, though I can't help but think that actual soldiers are probably jackasses too.
I also hate the phrase "Have one's cake and eat it", it makes no sense, it's like "The exception that proves the rule" wtf. Anyway, good review, but a bit short.

I was going to be good and not ask for an Age of Conan review. Being that is about as MMORPG as anything that ever mom-morph-burgered its way into sucking down time whilst forcing you to be vaguely social-- though from what I understand, Solo isn't bad at all, and if I play it, I'm likely to play it thus. But the oiled thighs comment is too much. Now I'm more inclined to beg. Before I go to spend thousand(s) on upgrading the ol' PC for it.
