Zero Punctuation: Tales of Monkey Island

[oppp7]

Adventure games sound like interactive storytelling...

God only knows what he'll sound like in an American accent.

Being in Ireland that was a very bad inpersonasion of an irish person but it was still as funny

 

[Checky_Girl]

the first two games were (and probably still are) two of my favourite games ever. but i was a little dissapointed with the third and im not sure i can bring myself to play these new ones. i just get the feeling that they will make me want to tear my hair out.

the irish accent started out well, but i think it was sliping near the end.

Really nive review, Yahtzee.

 

[Asickorphan]

Very funny accent! XD

 

[Ph33nix]

i was offended by the irish stero typing but it also made me laugh really hard so overall i find it ok.

Great video. I never actually played any of the Tales of Monkey Island games, but your review gives me a powerful JRPG vibe, so I'm glad I didn't.

Drat, blast, and fie! I was working on my own Monkey Island review (first time I've played it ever, honest), but there seems little point in it now...

Ahh Amiga, it's because of its first "3D" game, the obscure Mindwalker (which you can glipse footages in old Amiga ads on youtube), that I knew little gaming me would grow up not only as a programmer, but a crazy 3d programmer.

And you know a game is old when it's creator has been dead for years, RIP Bill Williams (however I ran around for years in that damn game, believing the map was endless, only to find out 10 years later that what I thought was decoration was actually the mean to reach the upper levels.. aww..).

Sadly, I know people who actually talk with that kinda Irish accent. Thank God for my American twang.

 

[DarkRyter]

Almost as good as his south African accent.

 

[Haberley]

The Irish accent made me squirt coke out of my nose in laughter. I hope you're happy Yahtzee.

 

[mr Awsome]

that was the best irish accent haha! "Shiver me shamrocks!" was my favorite part.

im gonna try out that game

 

[Yancy]

Awesome video! Don't think you can do an irish accent at all but all the other irish references were brilliant! xD

 

[knight56]

Don't feel bad Yahtzee. I'm part English, Scottish, and Irish and I can't do any of the aforementioned accents.

I was half expecting Batman to be reviewed this week.

I don't think it's been released in Australia yet.

Actually, that makes me wonder, does he ever import games or only the ones released in Australia ?

Because from what I heard, quite a few games never reach Australia if they're 18+. I already have that problem working in Germany, I usually have to wait to be back in my homeland for holidays or import online, otherwise I end up with censored versions.

Loved the irish accent. You should fit it into more reviews in the future. But I have to ask, why did you decide to do it? Is it an inside joke for the game, or just something you wanted to try?
