Why does Yahtzee seem to always have Valve so close to his heart? His love affair with this company blinds him from reality. I'm able to predict how every review is going to go now:
*If it was made for the XBOX it blows, but the review is funny because Yahtzee did he job and poked pun at the flaws.
*If it was designed for the PC, all of it's shortcomings are made up for by some miraculous feature that makes the game original or worthy of some pedantic, esoteric pedestal or laurel.
*If Valve made it, it was a masterpiece in every way, and oh, throw in some token criticism just cause I'm Yahtzee.
I can think of about a hundred logical flaws in your line of thinking--like touting the Orange Box for Team Fortress and not even playing the multiplayer in Halo 3, or praising Halflife for it's "high standard of visual design and pacing" even though it looks like busy, last-gen crap (ironically filtered in the coffee filter lens you so adamantly crusade against in all of your other reviews). You should stick to critiquing and stop PC/Valve pandering that makes some of your reviews so droll and boring.
