Zero Punctuation: Saints Row 2

[Eiv]

P.S. The super villian game would kick so much ass.

Just don't let Molyneux near it.

Was a good review, but I think the Escapist Show preview spoiled it a bit. But it did leave out the rubbish music.

If Molyneux got it, it would be like giving a hand grenade to a 2 year old. Yes, bad things would happen....but....how amusing would the "POLICE CAMERA ACTION" stylee show be .

P.S. i <3 Molyneux

2)I would have never, EVER, *EVER* (shifts to 1999 Chris Jericho)EEEEEEEEVER (shifts back to normal) expected Yahtzee to make a Team Rocket reference.

Me, either, although it raises the question... Does Yahtzee like Pokemon games? I'd imagine not, and that he'd run them through with rusty nails shaped like penises(see the Turok review), but it would be an interesting watch.

On the main point, I've only played a borrowed copy of the first game, and I found every single point in this review completely backwards compatable with the last one. Good, wholesome, honest, sandboxy, hypothetical barrel of hypothetical monkeys fun, but more annoying than an actual barrel of actual monkeys.

Please delete this, it was an accidental double post due to slow college servers.

Oh my god, the world must have come to an end. Ben likes yet another game. This seems to happen quite a lot recently. First it was Braid, then S.T.A.L.K.E.R and now this. Would this mean that the gaming industry has grown better? Meh. But I would like to see Yahtzee reviewing Little Big Planet.

Lets hope Rockstar Games are watching. I really can't be arsed to complete it.

Has anyone else noticed the 'censored' boxes over the genitals have gotten bigger since the first review?

You worry me at times...

I worry me at times. Although this time it's ok, I just noticed the box was as big as the old lady. Then that got me thinking back to other censor boxes.

Yeah.

What was that game that made him lower his standards? Halo 3?

Agreed.

I would so totally play that sandbox villain game. There's a fortune to be made there.

if only I hadn't eaten lunch I might have been first ah well time to see what yahtzee has to say this time..

 

[Lukeje]

Damn you full server! Where's my Yahtzee fix?!

 

[ryai458]

[6unn3r]

I have the strange need to cast of all my clothes and hip thrust infront of old ldies......

 

[Cybergangster]

I'd buy into that supervillain game!

In other news - woe! Did not expect SR2 to get a positive review - must go and seek this one out now!

 

[Ickabod]

Holy crap a game that he likes!!! Compelling enough to consider buying, almost.

NIce cant w8 2 c...1st???

It's amazing, every week practically somebody just has to post something like this, and every week they are banned. It's like watching lemmings run off a cliff or something.

I know I really enjoy it. Anyway cool review I was hoping for Fable 2 but maybe next week.

P.S. The super villian game would kick so much ass.

I have no' tha sla'test idea how ta' get in touch with Yahtzee but Some'un please tell 'im 'at the game Evil Genius is fairly reminiscent of the Super Villain game he seem ta' be describing, soooo if I might suggest it (as pitifully unimportant as me' opinion be).

Awesome review, even if others seem to think when he praises a game 'e's no' funny I believe 'e is.

Brilliant review, I laughed my way through the entire thing. Nice to see him back on the old track, before the S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Clear Sky review, it had become a bit mediocre..

PS: I would buy a game that allows you to make your own comic book villain and terrorize the city. In fact Im surprised no one has made such a game yet.

Well there is City of Villians, might be something alike to what you're lookng for... I don't know, never played it, only have the name to go on.

 

[Barciad]

Two minds is a funny place to be. I love Yahtzee for his great reviews, but at the same time he goes and says silly things like 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer was shit'.

 

[Dectilon]

What was the pokemon reference? There's always the chance that it didn't appear there first : )
