Meh... it's a recap show. Maybe Yahtzee will release his review of 2008 next week on the 31st 
The quiz was fun

I get the feeling that Yahtzee didn't actually make this video. This seems more like something that The Escapist whipped up for Yahtzee's day off. If you'll notice, there's no quote at the end of the credits. If Yahtzee had actually made this, he would have put something like, "***** about me having a clip show" before the fullyramblotic link. In my opinion, Yahtzee probably had no say in this video whatsoever.
OK, #2 was tough. I was able to figure out all of the others from watching the clips and listening to the jokes. I wound up having to brute force #2, watching every video until I found the right one. BTW, that "leper" clue that's being passed around was useless. Here's a useful hint for the rest of you: the clip is near the beginning of its show. How close? Well, if you commit to watching every episode from 2008, you can find the right one in under an hour.
It's Theru Mancer.
Personally I've never gotten the problem some people have with reading on text based forums.
Also that post was mostly a joke. Apologies to those whom it went zipping over the heads of. One couldn't expect Yahtzee to declare his own "games of the year" because I don't think it really fits his style of review/humor. As for winning one of his sweated on hats, well...
I'm still debating on whether to name this new meat clever that I made a santa hat for Ben or Jack. Perhaps it will tell me it's name after I play a few more games and take it for a walk.
(or for the unobservant: Yahtzee isn't that big a celebrity. He gets like 200 comments a week. Amusing to all of us, but it's not like he's Bruce Springstein or something. )

The quiz is quite silly. It requires you to put in the titles to the games exactly. Punctuation and all. A lot of the answers can be found by searching WikiQuote ( http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Zero_Punctuation ), which made it a lot easier to find some of the harder reviews referenced. I did have lots of trouble on number 22, until I realized he actually uses the saying twice. The quiz wants the first time he used it. The answer is on episode page 3 not 1.
Here's a really good hint for number 2:Kintoun said:
Think of the hardest video game ever (according to most people). Also violent. Also unfair. It also has it's own Awesome cartoon (egoraptor).
As for 16, it's not a game.
"All in all [it] feels like one of those clip shows TV Producers use to buy time when all the writers have passed out face down in buckets of cocaine."
