Zero Punctuation: Wet

[Simski Burkez]

Awesome.
The review, not the game. Found it a bit 'meh' & I ended up taking it back after 2 days. The challenges & dual-wielding were the part of the game I liked.

Also, I suspect that every studio has their own Pillock.
Everyone loves repetetive gameplay & QTEs... erm, no we don't.

 

[maninahat]

I'd love to play a game as a deep sea angler fish in an SS uniform. All it needs is a name...

 

[Britisheagle]

Fantastic, loved the dialogue between Mr Pillock and his boss, thats was class. Oh and they used swearing as wit, that was brilliant too.
Don't even know how he can keep talking so fast.

I'm hoping for DJ Hero, ODST, or Brutal Legends. I'm quite interested in Brutal Legends but the Hell Yeah commercial is pissing me off.

You do know Brutal Legend comes out in Australia TOMORROW, right Beastial? And I'm pissed off because I haven't found that commercial enough on T.V. And I thought EA was going advertise the game aside from the internet like it actually mattered.

As for the review, I have to say the Challenge mode thing is what stopped me from beating the demo alone. So if they're that frustrating in the thing that's supposed to make me WANT the game, i'll have to take Yahtzee's word for it on this game.

inb4 banhammer.

Also, I thought the humor was a little dry in this review.

Har, har. I see what you did there. I do not approve of it.

cinematic gaming can go fuck itself

Why's that? Please, elaborate. Mass Effect was cinematic, Dreamfall was cinematic, Max Payne 2 was cinematic. You know what else they shared in common? They all kicked arse.

"I always thought that was a very odd title for a game that involves no swimming."

Probation ? Just because he posted before watching the video ? I agree that "first" posts are stupid and should be simply removed and not punished, but this seems a little nazi-like, the guy has a right to post a joke even if it isn't funny, and regardless of it being the first or last post in the thread. I really can't see any other posts here that bring anything of greater value to the discussion than his.

Anyone could post hours or days later still without having watched the video, and if it really bothers people that much then why not open the thread say 10 minutes after the video is up ? I can't help but get the impression mods WANT people they can put on probation, rather like some form of entrapment.

Oh and i loved the video, but then you already knew that.

 

[Freedom153]

Global flobal wobbly bits = ??? Best reason ever.

So THAT'S what a QTE amounts to? Laaame.

 

[lacktheknack]

Great review VZ but was expecting Halo ODST.Still funny as hell.

Read Extra Punctuation: Scribblenauts.

He's not doing ODST.

Ever.

 

[Pimppeter2]

Hit all my major problems with the game.

Still, the game just felt like a title Bethesda was using to get some cash flow for TES V

 

[Tazz Azreal]

well an ODST review would pretty much be halo 3, except your a squishy more lovable marine in a halo 2 level

 

[Ridonculous_Ninja]

The Pillock section was amazing, we need way more of these review done in anecdotal form.

And then there was that one guy who phrased it like he needed to be first to not die.

That's a serious problem...

 

[Bloodeye]

A deep sea anglerfish in an SS uniform? I would so play a game with that in it.

 

[morpher80]

And my firend wanted to buy this game. Is there a demo out for this game please let me know if there is one i would like to try it to see if its even worth renting.

 

[The Great JT]

Cinematic gaming is the new Full-Motion Video game! It's a conspiracy, I tells ya!

 

[benbenthegamerman]

i liked this episode. are you going to do kingdom hearts 385/2 days at all?

 

[Kilgorn]

funny as always , and im glad he called BS on all that film-like stuff, especially the red/black events which my brother crapped his pants over but it was the exact same fucking thing as 10 seconds ago, only now it was easier to kill people, and you didnt have to use the shitty revolvers

speaking of the revolvers, they had moon clips with 20 bullets ,which is impossible, unless the bullet caliber is taken down to a .022 shorts and then it wouldnt be able to even kill anyone

 

[purplegothchick]

Aww, I liked WET...

Funny review though, I knew he would hate it, far too many QTEs

Also, it was too short (finished it in 2 days) and the bad guys weren't utilised properly

 

[Dimbo_Sama]

The 'Loading Screen singularity' bit made me laugh so much my ass hurt.

It congured many memories of games where I thought that was happening although I must say it's never actually crashed on one before.

 

[BioSaber]

love your shit, but when you review Uncharted 2: Among Thieves then you will know what Cinematic Gamplay really is. it beats every summer blockbuster that came out this year.
