He probally looked up that word in a dictionary called Brity-Witty's Terms or something like that.

it's all the same 
I'd like to know what's up with the ads, too... I was expecting some like extra Croshaw time, instead I got all the shitty videos Escapist has.... ZP being the only decent thing on the site, with Drawn by Pain a far-off second...
If the video is 5 minutes long, i want 5 minutes of Yachtzee!!!
Great review, by the way, definately won't get that game

I think the PS3 had a bad rep before Haze. The only good thing is MGS4 and once you've done it.. it goes back to being an expensive piece of equipment.excessum ado said:
i doubt he'll do a AoC review though, it's got 2 things he hates in it, MMO and RPG. Even with the promise of boobs and mature content, it just won't be enough to satisfy him. (especially with all the bugs and beta like quality the game oozes out of it's good looking graphics)
his reviews always crack me up though, especially with the british born-ness of them... sarcasm is good, embrace the dark side !
Do you really need too ask that?SatansBestBuddy said:
Just look at the number of replies in this thread and the post counts for the majority...
The site is just trying to spread the love and I for one hope it works.
The Zero Punctuation schtick won't stay fresh forever after all.
Take that back or die painfully. Ben will live forever for the viewers demand it.JaguarWong said:
Gah, I hope to God^h^h^hBob^h^h^hDawkins that the escapist isn't going to make a habit of surprise sexing ZP. It's getting perilously close to a tossup about whether or not it's worth watching them. Today's huge trailer for an unspeakably lame series was just.. a bit much (polite version).
On the other hand, it's less gratingly egregious than the whiney, dead-eyed colonials honking nasally about some piss-poor film called "Young People F*cking" (Zombie Siskel gives it no thumbs). Plastered on the end of most of the ZPs, it came at just the wrong time. I was catching up on some ZPs that I'd missed- more fool me. In the end, I just plain gave up, as I didn't want the nails-on-blackboard attempts at advert-driven astroturfing. There was enough negative entertainment value there to fully consume the ZP that they glommed onto, like as unto some kind of focus group headcrab.
In essence, just give it a break please. We're on your site, we're going "oo" and "ah" at the massive EvE online ads. Please don't tear the head off the goose that lays the golden egg and then attempt to shit down its neck. Stop fscking up ZP please. That is all.
(Going to see if there are any Cornettos left in the freezer, deep breaths)

I was dissapoined by MGS4 the sneaking is pointless when you can blend with anything,making you undetectable and the guards were sooooo stupid.The story was a great wrapup though.Just another game "dumbed down" for this generation.
I'm gonna get a cornetto.

always good to watch these... they give me a laugh and prevent me from buying games that I can't afford.... though I've gotta admit it's kinda painful seeing one of these on a game you love ripped to shreds (oblivion review). just hope he stays away from eve.
My brother and I thought the game looked quite awesome when we heard about the drug thing, though I assumed the gameplay would change after the defection as well. xD You're right, though, pretty stupid putting the main plot twist right there in the blurb.
Also? Thank god I'm not the only one who's thought that about the "having one's cake and eating it too" saying. I thought I was just being needlessly anal about it.

has anyone else been having problems getting the ZP vids to load? For the last week or so I've been just getting a big grey box where they're supposed to be. No software or hardware changes on my end, so I'm confused as hell. And annoyed. I miss the caustic reviews. Yahtzee is the only reviewer I've found any faith in since the multitudes gushed about how awesome Black & White was
I'm going to add my voice to those objecting to the after-ZP trailer... it really didn't fit too well.
Enjoyed the review as always, Yahtzee. Thanks.

I looked at the video progress bar at the end of the Yahtzee thing and I figure there was some extra Yathzee content afterwards.... At first I thought it was supposed to be a parody of a movie or something, little Weaboo emo-girl meets the pen and paper matrix. It took me a while to realize it was a commercial.
Now this pissed me off, are always going to be commercials embedded into the videos from now on? At least commercials that reflect the video creator's likes, last time I checked Mr. Croshaw was not a wrist-cutting Japanophile. If you are now, Ben, let me know so I can start ignoring you.

nice one again yahtzee i really can't imagine going to austrailia and finding out that everything is 50% more expensive in your currency. and all of us love cornetos! =D
As to everyone who's asking why no MGS4.. remember He's in Australia, they get games based on a formula involving phases of the moon, relative strength of the dollar and the weight of Ms. Nelson's cat.
Of course he could always try to run off and snag a copy from GAME TRADERS ROBINA.

Bit late in responding but then again who here really cares?
I loved it, that was amazing, the funniest since Mail Bag. I loved Oblivion review but this for comedic value outstripped all the rest. Amazing stuff, the 2D scenery joke had me in stitches.
Haze promised way too much, and didnt deliver anything but a bog standard FPs that works, but with a bland over hyped story and boring set pieces and bland levels. the necter system was a joke.

MGS4 had a simultaneous worldwide release iirc. Actually the Aussies should have got the game a day before the US and a half day before Europe, so thats pretty much a first if you don't count the Harry Potter books (which I don't)Shadrach said:
Still, your explanation is pretty much head on for the large majority of games I guess.
I to was hoping For an MGS4 Review, as much as i like the game Yahtzee could pick at so much from it and i think it would make a good argument! Though having Haze myself i do agree with whats said it seems that all free radical did was make a good shooter but forgot about everything else!!
