Zero Punctuation: The E3 Trailer Park

[DanRSL]

No love for Mirror's Edge? Not to say one game completely makes up for these things, but it certainly looks the least bad (or "good" if you prefer). I mean, platformers were great, now we have what looks like a great FPPlatformer.

But what got me the most was the Wii's "re-release", with the REAL Wiimote and that 1:1 sword fighting game that was advertised by a "cool guy" dressed all in white since before the Wii came out. So Nintendo is finally delivering on their launch promises.

assume everything's shit until it proves itself otherwise.

wonder what good non-sequels are coming out soon.

 

[star_topology]

Lots more angst than usual in this one.

Also loved the "clapping." Really woke me up! Oi!

The theory of cynicism at the end is pretty much what I've adopted. If you prepare for the worst, and the worst comes, you were right. If the best comes, it's a pleasant and welcome surprise!

What, no mention of Fat Princess? I was waiting for it all video.

Nice to see Yahtzee his usual curmudgeonly self. Oh, except that the Fallout 3 feature he talked about is something you can choose to turn on or off. Turn it on and its evocative of a turn-based combat system from the original two games. Turn it off and it's like any other FPS. No cutscenes necessary.

LOL!

*Clap Clap!* OI!

...

Which has been said by 5 other people as of yet.

 

[Rayath]

Lead us to the promised land.

Nice one, loved the star wars bit.

 

[Mister Shades]

Clap Clap OI! XD

You didn't read the bit he put in the credits?

Watch the credits. It gets a slightly better mention than Gears of War 2.

 

[sammyfreak]

I actualy think that the this falls lineup of games is nothing short of 100% awesome, but Yahtzee hit comedy gold again. God bless you even if your mindset is one I refuse to adopt.

Also, the Sigur Ros music in the Prince of Persia trailer was awesome.

 

[The_Heretic]

It wont play for me what the hell?!

 

[IainF]

Awesome video. I haven't laughed this much since the Lego Indy one, bravo!

 

[rebochan]

No one has any faith in Fallout 3, it seems.

Outside of NMA you mean? Because outside of "ABANDON ALL HOPE!" Yahtzee-man, non-NMA Fallout fans are pretty much looking forward to this game.

 

[TheVietSpecial]

I think I was just as disappointed at E3 as you were... though I will admit I'm excited to play some of the sequels. I totally agree that something original would be nice. I would play a game about a french chef riding a stick insect that wields a gun that shoots velociraptors. That sounds fucking awesome.

 

[OnlySniperLeft]

Another great vid, but you can't say Far Cry 2 doesn't look awesome.

 

[sshplur]

Very entertaining, worth staying up til 2am for. Especially loved the wake up clap XD

 

[Stabby Joe]

Meh to Final Fantasy as it will just be the same game but more over the top. As for the others theres is hope, even for Fallout 3. I think most bitterness towards it is coming from Fallout 1 and 2 fans but then again I will have to play it myself to judge I suppose.

Great video BTW as usual.

 

[spudpuffin]

yet again you ride into the end of the day with your dick limp and a dissapointment monkey on your soulders thank you for doing this for all of us so we don't have to =D cheers to a horible year in gaming

 

[DarthTirith]

On the topic of Fallout 3, you only get the camera angle slow motion thing when using your VAT, which you cannot use all the time.

So yea, please - volume control, Yahtzee.
