WHOO! He finally reviews a game I actually have!

This one looked like it was just gonna fly under the radar, and it's gratifying to see it finally get its just desserts.

Never played a perfect game? Taking back what you've said about Portal now, eh?

The end line was epic XD

Though I wonder if Yahtzee isn't going to do a Civ 5 review since he seems to hate strategy games so much. Though that's real time, not turn based.
Starcraft is real time...

I like that you rip SC2 apart when the escapist gave it a perfect score for a different review.

Not to mention that the game is so immersive that I almost cried when one of the characters "died" (Not the main character or any of the colossi).

I laughed at the "Twoo Wuv" part. Again I am reminded of Princess Bride. "Mawwaige is what bwings us hewe today."

That was one of my favourites, I like it when he talks about a game he actually likes.

The only part I didn't like was at the start when he told me he was a sorserer.

Man, I was hoping for a Split/Second review, as he said a while ago that he had been playing it. But still, now I want to go out and pick up this game to play... and a PS2 to play it in... if only so I don't get attacked by the people who love it so much.

And here's looking forward to no Starcraft 2 review from Yahtzee.

Damn... that was good. Cool review, it seems the game is so good it pleases everyone. Too bad i have no PS2 anymore... but when i do i shall buy it. I liked the joke about the photo copier.

Shocked you didn't comment on the story, but I agree with you're final opinion of "Damn Good."

We need more Damn Good in the world.

"and it's just damn good. Damn damn good good damn good damn damn....good."

That was a lot funnier than it should have been.

You upgrade stamina by shooting things in the overworld? I thought it just went up by itself. Huh.

Anyways, fantastic game and fantastic review. For a game with little plot it really touched me emotionally.

Especially when Agro seemingly died.

Now I feel kinda bad for selling my copy.

But then I really struggled with the FIRST boss fight, and the final boss was damn near impossible to beat without having to beat him then going to buy a controller that wasn't mating with the wallpaper.

Great review, but I have a gripe. So many of the best-rated games of Yahtzee's reviews are console-only. One of the many reasons I love sandboxy games like "Fallout 3" and "System Shock" is because they make a nice contrast to the 4x4 lift-shaft of a room that I live in. And considering my living quarters, I'll be jiggered if I have to actually go out and 1) buy, and 2) find space for a separate machine for gaming, when I have a perfectly good PC that can do the same thing plus a helluva lot more handy stuff that a console most definitely CANNOT do.

Is this available for PC? Are any of the "Silent Hill" series or the "Prince of Persia" series, since Yahtzee seems to like them so much? Or do I have to start the cable-switching console nightmare that passes for "easy gaming" nowadays in order to play this stuff?
