"Hurry up *****!"
I hope he reviews uncharted 2, I think he won't like how they haven't added much except multiplayer, but I still think it'd be a funny review.
Even though I played the multiplayer beta and fuckin loved that game.

I actually did notice a bunch of the issues that he mentioned here, I just never payed too much attention to them.
One BIG issue that he didn't mention was that during those challenge missions they force on you there is one in particular where you have to shoot targets around a bus. The targets mesh completely into the background and with the coloring of the bus and at times you hear the noise of a target going up but have no idea where it is cause of it's chameleon like abilities.
A fried of mine I believe actually bothered to get all the gold ratings for the missions and even got gold on the first one the very first time he tried it where I got bronze or silver, can't remember. I wonder if he's just got way too much time on his hands or I'm too lazy since I don't care to be forced to do stuff like that in games that I don't really like anymore just so I can force getting my moneys worth out of a game.

I guess you have to be into the grindhouse/exploitation scene to really want this game, plot-wise anyway. The combat looks interesting though.
Haven't played it but from some of his description it's a little odd that Yahtzee was so hard on the game, yet loves Killer7. Style over gameplay-wise, that is. (Killer7 didn't have quick time events but hey)
Place your bets: there will be a Brütal Legend review within three weeks.
Bonus points if he makes a referance about being gay for Tim Shafer.

Such a great review. Definitely one of his best ever.
I'd like to see him review Demon's Souls sometime. Personally I love the game, and its pretty immersive, which I know he likes. Actually, maybe scratch that, because its usually the best to see the reviews for the very bad games.

Loved the review. I pity you for actually having to play it through. I played the demo and instantly thought "Oh great, this is stranglehold all over again with an almost girl... only cheaper and less pretty."
My collectors edition of stranglehold is still sitting on my shelf of "not so good games," with about 10 minutes of gameplay (I mean I though it was supposed to be graphically ground breaking and enjoyable, but its not the UT3 engine, its the UT1 engine, but bad).
The Wet demo got even less play and I regretted the bandwidth used from my unlimited download internet connection.
p.s. I don't bother trading in bad games cause the usually give me only 2 euro of the price of a good game which isnt even worth the bother. I use them as gifts instead.

This is the first time that I have so definitively changed my mind about buying a game due to a review. Thank you, Yahtzee, you have saved me some money. Let's hear it for the misleading fantasy world otherwise known as advertising. Now, back to Psychonauts (especially since Newegg, unlike some other retailers who appear to have made "deals" with EA, has not gotten any copies of Brutal Legend to send to anyone who preordered.)
Ah, Flashback, Another World. Good old games.
Yes, but then people would whine that he already made that joke about Mirror's Edge.neoman10 said:
Good review. I gave up one minute into demo - glad I didn't bother. And yes Rubi is the girl from Zen Pinball.
