Zero Punctuation: Red Faction Guerrilla

[Kaijj]

Hmm... is it just me or did this episode stay a lot cleaner than usual? It looked like he censored himself a little. Or im crazy. Im not sure.

 

[SolidSnake1234]

It seems that this is game will be on his fail list...yet again. Ah, the creators of games are not paid enough for this.

 

[TsunamiWombat]

Okay.

Let me explain this... for the last... time.

The Red Faction: Guerilla Mining Sledge has a mass driver in the head. As you swing it it pops out, increasing the mass and force of the blow a hundred fold. It's not you, it's the hammer. It's a hightech supersledge.

 

[defcon 1]

Wow. many, many, programming references lately.

 

[LeQuack_Is_Back]

He didn't like RF1? (Says this as he walks around the corner into 3 sniper-mercs with Rail Drivers)

I can't imagine why <.<

Thank you for reviewing this, Yahtzee. As much as you just verbally assaulted one of my favorite games of this year, someone had to point out the trouble spots for the RFG fans who have spent the all this time gushing about what a great game they all bought.

I dunno if I'm just getting used to Yahtzee's voice, and whether I keep drifting in and out, but that seemed really short, even if the timebar says 4 mins...

Perhaps it's because they're getting boring.
Yahtzee is losing his spark.

I don't think so. You must have watched many if not all of his episodes. One simply builds up tolerance to any single comic over time. Had this with many writers or sketch groups. If you find him constantly boring then better just stop watching, otherwise you will grow to hate him.

But he still makes brilliant reviews now and then, like Sims 3. I enjoy tremendously even the weaker reviews, simply because I like his reasonably broad vocabulary.

 

[TimeLord]

RED FACTION 1 WAS AWESOME!

In my opinion anyways

Quiet Yahtzee

I've seen them all. The older ones still make me laugh, regardless of how many times I've watched them.

Is it I who's losing interest, or Yahtzee who's running out of ideas?

 

[snuffler]

I was rather fond of the --; at 3:17. call me a C++ nerd.

 

[Panda Mania]

Yahtzee truly masters personification...

 

[srpilha]

man, I absolutely LOVED this one! it's touching and brilliant, there's a whole movie script in there waiting to be made into a 3-hour long drama epic.

with Daniel Radcliffe on cocaine playing Yahtzee.

Well, you watched them first, were funny and original back then and thus they ingrained themselves in your memory as such. You cannot be honestly sure that, if the sequence was reversed and you watched the current ones first, the effect would have been the same.

Is it I who's losing interest, or Yahtzee who's running out of ideas?

Well, if either is the case then I would stop watching, otherwise you will just suffer. And this is not even me being a jerk. I really believe that. I did it with some funny stuff that ceased being funny to me, actually.

 

[Low Key]

Yahtzee confirmed what I had assumed. That's too bad. The demo made the game look pretty good.

Nah, he's just using less toilet humor. I noticed him slowing down his rant quite a bit though.

 

[Mjolnir07]

YAY MJOLNIR! HE SAID MJOLNIR LIKE EIGHT TIMES! I LOVE YOU TOO YAHTZEE!

 

[SYSTEM-J]

And did Yahtzee seriously complain that he couldn't kill civilians (aka the guys you're fighting to free) without consequence? Except Prototype, name me one game you can.

Deus Ex. I had some terrible conversations with Paul when I didn't realise that you were supposed to sneak around the back of the hostage situation in the subway.

 

[achilleas.k]

Is it me or is Yahtzee's rant style getting slower?

Yes. It's also now possible to tell what he's saying so I'd say it's an improvement overall.

But I liked it more when he was blazing fast. The most fun part was that by the time the first joke started sinking in he was already on the third!

 

[PEPPI]

The title was supposed to be 'Red Faction Gorillas'.

 

[SAccharing10]

Wait. the original Red Faction was a fantastic game, how can he gain any respect after saying such things about it.

 

[AboveUp]

I completely agree with this review.
Heck, I was comparing the game to Saints 2 myself. Though this might be because I bought both titles at the same time, and Saints is easily the superior one of the two.
