I'm sure a few of the Spunkgargleweewee fans would suffer a nervous breakdown if not an aneurysm as well.

Public transport in the UK? I can summarise it very quickly: late, expensive, smells of toilet, lots of tourists and crazy people, very rude staff.Barciad said:The buses in Australia weren't so bad.

But yeah, Metro: Last Light. Played the first one, I thought it was more immersive than Half Life 2. From the sounds of Yahtzee's impressions, sure enough, it's the same game, maybe a little better. I'll probably wait until it hits $30, 'cuz the trouble with these games is I play them once, am riveted for about 15 hours, but them I'm done with it forever.
Aw, I enjoy Call of Duty... I have a lot of fun laying it...Mr. Q said:I'm sure a few of the Spunkgargleweewee fans would suffer a nervous breakdown if not an aneurysm as well.

'Adequate' is exactly the reason he avoids reviewing some games. When a game is terrible, there's lots of fun tearing it apart; similarly, when it's excellent, he can praise it effusively while exploiting every tiny flaw. When the game is just ho-hum, middle of the road, suitable fare without being either very offensive or very engaging, then it gets hard to review. I'd rather he make quite funny videos about some games than kinda-funny videos about all games.Copper Zen said:I have the same problem figuring out what I'm supposed to be doing in KOTOR II.
Funny how Yahtzee avoided giving the first game a review because it was good (albeit depressing). Since Bioshock he's focused on picking nits but I didn't think he deliberately avoided giving games reviews simply because they were good. It makes me wonder how many games out there I might have enjoyed if he brought them to my attention.
"Oh," gives begrudging list at end of episode, "I guess you might like these--they were to 'adequate' for me to shit on."
In Metro 2033, you can hear several conversations talking about the metro system in St. Petersburg, and even about a small column of tanks who set up a little outpost in the wastes.KDR_11k said:I guess the "disregarding other cities" thing is just a result of the area around Moscow being so inhospitable that you have no realistic way of even checking what happened to the rest of the world.
