Zero Punctuation: Viewer's Choice: Duke Nukem Forever

[DarkKnightBob]

nah not trolling. Just didn't realise he was on holiday.

It's a pretty daft idea though.

Apparently 'filler' is deemed ok. couldn't we have got someone to fill in for him. at least that would have been entertainment. Watching the fish out of water fail miserably in trying to mimic him.

Yey! I would be so proud if Mogworld was in my bookshelf!

Honestly, did anybody not see this coming?

I personally still enjoyed the Painkiller review more, but that's just me. On top of that, it was interesting to see him not totally hate a game. Especially a bargain bin one.

If I didn't know better, I'd say this was a tad sarcastic...

 

[rockyoumonkeys]

Yeah, this one was really great, but it probably should have been exempt from the contestthing.

This review won the viewers choice?

TAHTS
TARGIC

Please consider that a good percentage of his reviews were not in the competition at all. My personal favorite, the Prince of Persia Retrospective was never in the competition.

So, of the ones available, Duke Nukem was the favorite. Of the ones available.

Wait, so his best review is of a game that doesn't actually exist...?

The world doesn't make sense to me anymore.

I voted for Halo Wars, that was much better. Really funny AND a decent review to boot.

I wish there was a little more than just the original video.

I am a fan of glorious irony.

Ironic isn't it? Yet it's strangely fitting.

A hugely creative and entertaining review in my opinion, havn't seen anything like it, but undoubtably some reply reviews by people attempting to be amusing by leeching off someone elses creativity have been created, so I doubt it's the last.

 

[DigitalSushi]

Because this is so hilarious I'd love to see more "made up" reviews of vaporware, but Duke Nukem was such a special case means that any others would probably fall short of this video, not because of Yahtzee's skill but more do to with the source material.

I'd like to welcome you to The Escapist.

 

[General BrEeZy]

Brava. good show old boy, enjoyed every second of it!

 

[ShadowsofHope]

Who really did not see this coming? Shame on you!

..Though for the first half of that review, I was so fucking confused. And then the world stopped orbiting the wrong way and Yahtzee was his normal, jaded self again.. Phew.

 

[ziggy161]

I'm glad the finals were my two fave reviews - Duke n Painkiller XD
YOU CAN ALWAYS BET ON DUKE GUYZ.

 

[theSovietConnection]

This review was definitely my favourite. Less constraints from having to work with a real game, meant for more of the comedy I watch Zero Punctuation for.

In a wierd way, it makes perfect sense.
