    Zero Punctuation: Super Mario Maker

    When I heard of Super Mario Maker I thought it was the most idiotic idea ever. Instead of a new Mario game, God forbid one which would actually try something new instead of regurgitate old material with a new paint job they plan to release... a level editor? Seriously? But you know what? They...

    The Worst Part of Each King's Quest Game

    I actually remember liking Mask of Eternity. But that's probably because I pretty much ended up hating each Sierra adventure in turn. I loved adventure games, so I played practically all of the Sierra ones at certain point, but I finished precious few because each and every one screwed me...

    Zero Punctuation: Cave Story - Heart and Art

    Hey, I'm one of the people who still have the initial free version on their PC. It's seriously $15 now? I was always a fan of the game (although I think there are slightly better solo developed indie games there, such as Untitled Story for example) but the secret ending annoyed me quite a...

    Why Completing All Objectives And Finding All Secrets Are Meaningless

    Yep, Ubisoft's way of handling collectables pisses me off too. Here, gather a bunch of crap. Here, I'll tell you exactly where they are. Now go fetch.

    Zero Punctuation: Grim Fandango - Does It Hold Up?

    I played the original through relatively recently. I don't remember any bugs and glitches, to be honest. It did require some tinkering to get it working on Windows 7, but in the end it was a relatively enjoyable experience, and the overall story and gaemplay still hold up nicely. I'm not...

    Five Nights at Freddy's and the Nature of the Jumpscare

    I usually agree with Yahtzee's views, sometimes it's more of a hit and miss, but this is one of the few times when I completely disagree. I mean, I get the jumpscare hate. I dislike them too. It *is* the cheapest sort of horror. Yet I heavily disagree that FNAF is simply a glorified screamer...

    Taking On "Detrimental" Isometric Game Design

    I never actually liked isometric games... yet one of my favorite games is Head over Heels. I love that game so much I actually played the PC remake of it very recently (and IMHO it holds up very well).

    Zero Punctuation: Dark Souls

    I was kinda dreading pressing the play button because I didn't want to see Yahtzee tear a new one to one of my favorite games. Now I kinda wish he did. It's not fun when he likes a game so much. :P

    Zero Punctuation: Might & Magic X: Legacy

    I've played MM4, MM5 and MM6 to death back in the days. However that is one type of gameplay I'm not too keen on revisiting. I mean, I liked Legends of Grimrock, gave me that old school RPG fix, but that's mainly because it went so overboard with being old-school it actually found the perfect...

    FTL LEGO Sets Heading for Official Review

    Well if anyone wandered what happened to this idea, the review results have recently arrived. (Spoiler) LEGO folks didn't like it. http://lego.cuusoo.com/ideas/view/35223

    Why Do We Love Survival Games?

    While we are at the feasibility of "zombie virus" spread... The "Walking Dead" series actually introduced a workaround, which is basically that the virus is airborne and everyone is already infected, the virus just waits until you are actually dead to make you, well, be less dead and more...

    The Trials and Perils of Returning to PC

    I don't think it's really about "consoles vs PC" anymore.. as I see it's just about the good old common sense. You buy a product for its features. Because it does something that you appreciate and enjoy. And you choose one product over another because it does something better than the other...

    Zero Punctuation: Killer Is Dead

    No you are not "watching it now". You are clicking on comments in feverish rush to be the first, and only after you click "post" you're going to watch it. If at all.

    The Dangers of Dialogue

    Being a damn completist, I've come to hate dialogue trees, something which is especially awkward to me since I am - or at least used to be - a big fan of adventure and RPG games. I loved Mass Effect for example, but what have always stuck the most for me was the Citadel part (which is very well...
