I disagree. The whole function of the word and is to connect different parts of a sentence together. The point of a full stop is to end a sentence and everything after that is a whole new sentence. By having a line that has goes '.and' your both disconnecting and trying to connect two different sentences at the same time
You're mixing 2 things up now :p
Sentences & subjects. The full stop is there to end the sentence. The word 'and' is there to connect with the subject.

I must admit he does make a good point. I mean face it people nintendo (as much as I love them) do make shit games. Fact of life. Brawl is nothing but a bad melee clone. Instead of getting rid of the clone characters they added more and just copied everything again. Grow some originality nintendo. Also wise up all of those people that wrote in. Take the criticism with some dignity. All power to Yahtzee.

so you've gone to the extra effort to complain about people complaining about something you see as small? huh forgive my ignorance but if it isn't that important surely your comment is just as bad?

Brillant as always. You've brought a smile to this unwill and sick brit with your A+ review , smacking fanboy's and also showing us that scoring games is a crap idea cause not every one is gonna like the same piece of pie.

Keep them coming and try not to get sucked to deep into GTA that you stop reviewing for weeks on end ^^

Wii-fit is original I would say. Only because I refuse to defend a game I haven't played, unless I have some knowledge on that game.

Also originality is all well and good, but if we got it all the time, we would get bored of it. People look for familiar faces and situations to identify, hence why Mario, Zelda and Final Fantasy etc. are still popular today.

I really enjoyed this...I guess some people missed out on the whole thing where this is his JOB. Yahtzee isn't just bashing games because its fun(ny). And besides, think way back to the Bioshock review, the first words being "If my Psychonauts review taught me anything, its that no one likes me when I'm being nice to a game." Apparently, a great many of you just don't like him regardless. It's probably all the crazed viewers like those featured in this video that made Yahtzee go from hating about 1/2 the population to hating us all.

So, keep making videos Yahtzee, because whether I agree with your stance or not, they're always F***(sorry)ing hilarious.

As a side note, they should make a DVD of Yahtzee's reviews. Itd sell better than a hooker...I'd buy it.

That is a good idea but wait for the reviews to grow in number. But wow, this video got more comments than Halo. How about that?

Okay, Yahtzee pissed me off with his Devil May Cry 4 review and all but completely lost my viewership with his Brawl review, then made me lose faith in the entire human race when he actually gave God of War a GOOD review when I was deeply hoping he'd rip it a new one

I, in my opinion, find this post a bit silly, basically what you're saying is that you hate his reviews because he doesn't agree with you?

Way too many conflicting onions in this thread, it's making me teary eyed. This is a message to the more outspoken few in both this and the SSBB thread, so don't be offended if this isn't you.

To those who liked the ssbb review and hated ssbb, you trolls are no better than fanboys. In fact you are worse. It's more understandable for somebody to defend something they liked than put down something they hated, yet here you are.

To those who hated the ssbb review and liked ssbb, don't let Yahtzee's onion or his fanboy army sway your beliefs. I agree it was a shit review, and that I enjoyed ssbb, but that doesn't make me a fanboy or have incorrect taste in games. I've enjoyed some of the games he's put down, yet that review was just flat unfunny and rant-er-ific. They are just his own onions, so don't take his criticisms as indisputable fact. If you did you would be a Yahtzee fanboy, which is much worse.

To those who liked the ssbb review and liked ssbb, you have got a lax sense of humor in my onion. Keep it up!

To those who hated the ssbb review and hated ssbb, you are very hateful and should seek help.

To Yahtzee, you have to let this one go. Face the fact that a lot of people, including some which have watched since the beginning, thought your review wasn't that great. It didn't have anything to do with your dislike of the game (well, mostly), but your reviewing style and lack of funny. But there were lots of people who did like the review, if only to satisfy their hate for a game, so you shouldn't be upset.

And to everyone else, why are you here??

PS. Again, I will say this review was fucking fantastically funny, but the ssbb review was total shit n' onions in a blender. So I guess I don't care how much my onions differ from Yahtzee's (mine are bigger), so long as he makes it funny.

Simon TR, why the hell do you think I CARE about what you think?

I come to Yahtzee's site to see his brutally honest reviews of videogames, and if he destroys the pathetic arguments of a few nintendo fanboys, so much the better. The game was overrated, and I'm been a Nintendo fan for longer than most of these recent nintendo fanboys have been alive.

And Simon, answer your own question, why the hell are YOU here, if you don't like Yahtzee's humor?
I think you CARE about what I think because you are willing to respond to it... dur.

So you come to yahtzee's site, (the escapist), to see his reviews, yet here you are trolling the forums? I smell liar.

I am here because I don't fit into the everyone else category, since I liked ssbb and disliked his ssbb review. I do enjoy his humor, as I said in my first post and in my last post.

At the end of the day, the internet losers with nothing better to do will endlessly discuss something like this.

The reality is thus: people CARE about what Yahtzee says, and they DON'T CARE about what YOU say.

Do thousands upon thousands of people come to YOUR site to see what YOUR opinion of a game is?

NO. So shut the hell up and keep your worthless,insignificant opinions to yourself.
So you're saying only the popular onions matter, and everyone else should just shut up and agree with Yahtzee? Who's the loser, really.

Good vid. It's the fanboys that Yahtzee bashed in this video that makes me somewhat ashamed to be a Wii owner. (I have all 3 systems, BTW.)
