Zero Punctuation: Super Smash Bros. Brawl

... Go find That Guy and smash buttons randomly. See how many times you win. -_-
Anyway, that's partly what I love about these reviews. Yahtzee always picks the most non-existant and obscure problems about a game that nobody really cares about and blows them way out of proportion. He's so masterful at it he attracts a lot of sheep. XD
I wish I had that power. -_-/
Snake being a secret character WAS a little disappointing, though.

Getting mad at Yahtzee for taking a verbal crap on a game you love or vice versa is like getting mad at a shark for biting you. You may not like it, but the shark doesn't care. If it wants to eat you, it's going to do it. Hence his blatant "fuck you" after he gave Portal a perfect score, since it wasn't funny. He has no mercy for anyone, including himself and his beloved "smart, clever adventure games". I respect him for the fact that he hates, but he at least hates everything equally.
"Not much point in writing anything here this week, everyone's already fucked off to their favorite Nintendo forum to talk about how I'm not a 'real' reviewer" - Yahtzee
It's probably been quoted multiple times before in here, but I just can't help but laugh when Yahtzee says Brawl is shit and every Nintendo fanboy from here to Azerbaijan and back the other side of the globe will flame him and lo and behold, in front of me lies over 10,000 posts of flame or comments on flaming, filling 32 pages and counting in less than a week.

Great review! Personal favorite of mine!
I like this game and I still love his review and all the points he made are so valed.
I also feel bad for him, he really should be able to review what ever he wants, because they usually lead to the best reviews, but this is still my favorite. Also, I'm the THAT GUY of my freinds in this game, and I only am because of, you guessed it, Solid Snake.

Wow, these comments are unnecessarily brutal towards SSB, I'm really surprised. Me and my friends have been into Super Smash since the N64 game, and Melee became a staple of our good times together. Brawl has recently taken that spot and we all love it dearly. The story line was amazing, those of you who complain it was too long should maybe realize that it's rather short for almost any game and just seems long because you're not used to it for the SS series. As far as those who call it a button masher, clearly you are button mashers and won't take the time to play the game for more than a few alcohol fueled minutes. Super Smash Bros. Brawl is such a fun experience to sit down and play with friends, I don't know how you can all just jump on the hate wagon train that our good Yahtzee has started rolling. Seriously, you may all hate nintendo fanboys, but you don't even know why...play the game before hating the game.
Marth is from Fire Emblem. He was my best character in Melee, now replaced by Mr. Game and Watch in Brawl. Sonic and Snake were worth waiting for you impatient masses.

Wow a thousand posts, you kids are crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy crap Indigo, do you just sit in the forum, griping and sniping all day? Surely saying the same thing over and over again must get monotonous.
People ought to relax. He was way more brutal to JRPGs, and I love those. It made no difference to me. I'm not going to stop playing them.
You know people without lives (Like the ones who complain about his reviews) need to remember that there is such a thing as freedom of speech and I think unless you're playing with 10 or more people that Super Smash Brothers sucks so KEEP ON DOIN WHAT YOU DO YAHTZEE!!!!
Wow...Do you guys realize that this is the most posts on ANY of his videos? Come on now. I would think we'd have something better to do then to debase each other over something as silly as Brawl. Yahtzee doesn't like it. Big deal. Move on. There aren't many games he DOES like. I'm more of an avid SSBM player myself and find Brawl just a step backwards in comparison. Things that made Melee good were taken out to make it (and I quote) a "non-tournament game" and "more accessible for the newbies." I'm surprised that so many people are so angry at his review and the people that agree with him. I thought Brawl was going to be terrible FAR before I saw Yahtzee's review just from gameplay videos while all of my friends thought it was going to be amazing and thought I was just "hatin'" on Brawl. It's not my cup of tea, but for those of you who enjoy it, go ahead and do so and stop flaming the people who dislike it because of a personal choice. And for those of you who just wanted to hop on the band wagon, for shame. I would hope that perhaps some of us could make an opinion before someone reviewed it.
Freedom of speech is a two sided coin. People also have the right to complain about what others say. That's still speech. What isn't freedom of speech is when people STOP others from speaking what they believe. People can hate Yahtzee all they want (I thought his brawl review was hilarious and I seriously like Brawl [I'm "That Guy])
