Zero Punctuation: Just Cause 2

[Regiment]

What the fuck happened at the start of the thread with all the probations?

Great video though. 'why?' 'fucked if I know!' Good stuff, and one of the best of the past 2 months.

People were put on probation for low-content posts ("third"? Really?) and more importantly: they posted before they could have possibly watched the video. The probation-ed comments are all timestamped 12:02. The video's 5 minutes long.

Fair enough. Most of the time, I see the little mod warning telling them to avoid low content posts, rather than a probation for it. Guess they must've been repeat offenders or something.

It's probably the time thing more than the content. I've never seen anyone post within the first five minutes of a video and not get penalized.

Mmm chip sandwich...

Tigers? In Africa?

We definately need "Mad as a ferret sausage" on a t-shirt. Make it happen.

NOW.

Great review, btw. (Yea, the missions in JC2 feel kinda... meh.)

 

[i don't know]

Gosh Yahtzee cant get any better! I wonder what kind of game he would make if he was making an fps.

 

[theelcaminodude]

"best way to smack into concrete at terminal velocity and remain unharmed? smack into it slightly faster"

 

[Mouse_Crouse]

Just had to register to say, this is a great return to form for Yahtzee. Too funny and a good review to boot. Keep up the good work.

"it's fun to hookshot a guy in the throat, yank him off a ledge then drag him behind your car as you drive through a cactus patch" hehheh. that needs to go on a ZP t-shirt. now

 

[beema]

so, he liked it?
son of zeus and hispanic window washer! lol
I actually enjoyed the first Just Cause, despite it's rather generic story/missions. The scenery and diversity of travel was amazing.

I am a student at Columbine and i don't know if I should feel bad about laughing at the joke made about the shooting but either way I'm going to Hell for laughing anyway. Good Job Yahtzee now my damnation into Hell will be complete

 

[superbatranger]

Hearing you say "Just Cause!" over and over again had me in a fit of laughter. Thank you, Yahtzee. Thank you for putting your own creative spin on critiquing and reviewing video games. How you come up with this stuff, is beyond me. But keep it up.

 

[That One Six]

These last few episodes have had a fruit-defensy air about them... Shooting, sixteen ton weights, tigers...

 

[duchaked]

"and he also possesses the ability to pull unlimited number of parachutes literally out of his ass"

that alone makes the game worth playing


tho I did stop by GameStop and found the first game real cheap sooo I'll give it a run just for the heck of it, don't have too much time (def will give JC2 a good solid run sometime in the near future hopefully)

 

[FATcharlie333]

Online ads are rather annoying. I already have to wait for videos to load for a bit, and now every video has some 15 second ad attached to the beginning that I can't skip past (similar to God of War cutscenes you can't skip!!!). Only way I'd buy a product advertised this way is if the ad is clever, and seeing as Zero Punctuation is more clever than any ad I've seen (with the possible exception of Super Bowl ads), that's not likely.

 

[Ohlookit'sMatty]

By the looks of things it almost appears that Yahtzee enjoyed this game *Shock Horror* Well it was bound to happen sooner or later

-M

 

[Bifford]

Yahtzee really loves this game. He struggles to find things to complain about.

The only thing that I'd really complain about the game is that you cannot go in reverse when taxiing a plane on the ground. This makes it damn near impossible to steal some of the bigger planes. If you accidentally run into a corner, your plane is stuck there until you tow it out with a car.

 

[Westy215]

Well it appears that I'm as mad as a ferret sausage cause I am going for 100% completion!
So far I've completed 49% and spent a full 25 hours on it. None of which was spent truly just screwing about.
Mind you I did finish the game at 25%...
But alas, his comment doesn't affect me because this game is freaking awesome and even grinding on it has a decent element of fun in it cause the game constantly throws shit at you at random intervals.
If your contemplating getting the game, GET IT NOW!
Oh and I give the review a 10/10.

I'm rewatching all the old ZP's. I burst out laughing at "Black market: Black like my soul." One of the funniest things on the site, that joke is.
