Well, since you weren't swift enough to actually post a link, I'll do so for you, since I also find him funny (not really enough to discuss it in detail, but hey).

He's a pretty great reviewer, and his horror video game that he made is pretty solid. My only beef is that, as an Australian, his reviews typically come out at least a month or two after a game's original wave of reviews has passed.

My only beef is that, as an Australian, his reviews typically come out at least a month or two after a game's original wave of reviews has passed. That's probably why he doesn't bother reviewing games in any sort of release order then, even PAL releases.  Loved his Halo 3 review. And his Crysis review. And his Orange Box review. And all of it. If I could find a decent image of the imp thingy to nick I'd make it my avatar on every forum I'm on where I can set them.

 This is the one I made and have been using on Steam. The basic screenshot -> MSPaint thing works just fine. -------------------- With the lights out It's less dangerous |

I've been a loyal watcher of Yahtzee's Zero Punctuation since the Halo topic, when somebody linked to it.
Since then, I've watched all of his reviews (Console Rundown FTW), played a handfull of his games (John DeFoe Series, 1213) and I must say, it's all amazing. Still, I am never accepting any lettuce from the man, should I ever meet him. -------------------- "I fell off the mountain of words at around the 10,000ft mark.

I couldn't find the Halo video, but I saw a couple, and they were pretty funny I have to say, especially the Assasin's Creed one, good stuff!

I think my favorite is his take on the console wars.

I usually love all of the video reviews he does particularly Console Wars.

Yahtzee's most recent video is a response to the overwhelmingly negative mail blitz he received following a negative review of SSBB. But honestly, who didn't expect him to dislike Brawl? He hates Nintendo recycling characters, he doesn't like fighting games, and he wasn't part of the automatic built-in fanbase created by Melee and the original. Just go to Josh's link from near the beginning of the topic, check out Yahtzee's Brawl review and his recent mailbag, and you'll see what I mean.

i thought his mail response and his brawl review was pure verbal gold.

I love his SSBB review, even though I completley disagree with what he is saying

I think the fact that he speaks so fast only adds to the fun
 ... Even though you disagree with him, he talks with such burning passion that you can't help but laugh. -------------------- All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Broccoli to die. |
