Zero Punctuation: Hunted: The Demon's Forge

[Critterbot]

I watched the Yogscast play this game, it didnt look very good.

 

[Jyggalag]

Wow, I have never been so disappointed in a single game. Ever.
Seriously, I had so much anticipation for this game that I preordered it last year. After reading/listening to a few reviews it seems as if my worst fears are coming true. Damn

 

[CrawlingPastaHellion]

dont review duke nukem cause it sucks

Well, that's exactly why he should.

Graham McTavish was in Red Dwarf season 8 and apparently Yahtzee is a fan of Red Dwarf.

 

[Gyrefalcon]

Yahtzee, I think you hit upon something in your post-review credits. I would play a game that cast you in the role of a treasure-hunter with a side-kick that had to convince the sidekick to assist in poking and prodding pressure plates and the like where the sidekick kept getting mangled by traps. Then you have to do little things to keep them on your side and heal them just enough to keep going. Once in a while I like something that has a sardonic twist.

I need to find that thread talking about fave lines from ZP. I got tickled incredibly with this one:

"So finally the spider took time out of its busy schedule to chase me around a bit before I lobbed two bombs at it then dropped a rock on it. How exciting. Can we fight now? What do you mean, it's dead?"

Just chuckled for a very long time.

But yeah, this game does sound kind of tedious, it does.

judging by the review, I should be thankful I had never heard of the game until this point.

 

[moostar]

great review as always can wait for the Dnf review :]

 

[A Gent of Villainous Intent]

judging by the review, I should be thankful I had never heard of the game until this point.

How?

It filled the banner space for practically all of winter.

 

[Biodeamon]

unfortunately the only that the acid would do is melt off their horrible armour and so you see their daggly parts all over the battlefiled.

what you'd really want is a base.

 

[joshuaayt]

Hmn. Cover based... melee extravaganza? I am intrigued. Not, like, enough to buy it, but certainly enough to watch a Let's Play.
Fine video, of course- though that largely goes without saying at this point. Can always count on good ol' ZP for a laugh.

I was excited for this game too! Reminded me of good old fashioned focus-on-gameplay type of game, with a focus on coop! PERFECT!

Scanning for comments saying "Its actually good, you suck yahtzee!" ...none.....

I stopped paying attention to the banners a long time ago. they almost never had anything that would be of interest to me, so i stopped noticing.

 

[spaceman_jan]

Fun fact this is episode number 200
so yah... Whooooo confeti!

 

[TechieBoy]

Hunted is not at all good.It does not live up to the expectations of the trailers and previews.
