    Zero Punctuation: Super Mario Maker

    Pretty poor review, even when you ignore some of the factual mistakes such as the styles not inhibiting explicit differences. It's one thing to find 3D Land / World a lesser game than Galaxy and another to use it as a springboard to downplay whatever dwindling sense of "creativity" or such of...

    Zero Punctuation: Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number & Ori And the Blind Forest

    Hotline Miami 2 is one of those games that didn't get better for me until I actually sat down and thought about it in more detail. Much of the first Hotline set itself up as an interesting story that served as critique on why we play games, and it used the most game play driven setup...

    Zero Punctuation: E3 2014 - Deflate Your Hype Balloons

    Come on Yahtzee, give Nintendo some credit - they finally came out with a new idea/IP instead of rehashing Mario all the time.

    The Big Picture: She-Hulk Shaming

    Expected Bob to do an episode on the Ant-Man controversy. Nice acknowledgment at the end there.

    The Big Picture: Go Go Godzilla - Hoping for Better Blockbusters

    Despite TASM2 looking to possibly outgross The Winter Soldier it's still not looking to be the hit people were expecting it to be. The movie had an abysmal drop at the Domestic Box Office and it already debuted lower than any of the other Spider-Man movies, even if the massive Asian opening sort...

    Escape to the Movies: You Are Wrong About Spider-Man 3

    You know, I feel that Venom would have been a lot better if they didn't constantly remove his mask every five seconds. The only time it really had to exist is when he reveals himself first to Peter. Topher easily manages to go between a rather nonchalant voice to a pretty droning one that...

    Escape to the Movies: You Are Wrong About Spider-Man 3

    I hope you realize the only reason Spider-Man 4 got cancelled is because Raimi willingly withdrew from the project due to him not considering it possible to finish the movie when Sony wanted it done, and he hated every iteration of the script that the creative team was shitting out for him...

    Escape to the Movies: You Are Wrong About Spider-Man 3

    His stance on TDKR was always "good, not great". It really felt like the kind of movie that had even more glaring flaws the more you thought about it. CinemaSins and RedLetterMedia already skewered it pretty well. It's an interesting defense on Spider-Man 3, Bob. I can actually agree with a...

    Zero Punctuation: Saints Row 4

    SR4 really is a lot more grounded and focused than SR3, and it feels a lot more like a constant adventure as opposed to the previous one. In some aspects I'm surprised that Yahtzee thought it was better than SR3, but in some aspects I'm kind of not. This feels like the game to finally have...

    The Big Picture: The Big Letdown

    Yes, clearly that's why one of his favorite super hero movies of all time is The Dark Knight and also why he admits that if Man of Steel was actually as good as that, it wouldn't have been a problem. People never stop projecting on Bob just because he's disappointed in certain (comic) movies...

    Zero Punctuation: Anarchy Reigns

    The game is balls fun once you learn the ins and outs, and multiplayer is a riot if you get it going. I didn't expect Yahtzee to think highly of this game when he didn't even have the ability to try split-screen like in Twisted Metal, but the review was funny nonetheless. For the budget price...

    Escape to the Movies: The Dark Knight Rises

    Bob calls the movie good although not as good as the two others, but despite ranking The Dark Knight as one of his all time favorite super hero movies, he's automatically biased. I could understand people's complaints with him were he spewing venom much like in his Spider-Man review because...

    Escape to the Movies: Men in Black 3

    I think comparing Men In Black 3 to Men In Black 2 is doing this movie a ridiculous injustice, since Men In Black 2 was probably the lowest point a Men In Black movie could reach. It seems for a while that you've been harping on about the prospect of a MiB sequel merely because it never needed...

    The Big Picture: Not Okay

    So assuming we're on the same page here; Saying something like "Oh shit you're killing me" when someone, say, tells you a hilariously funny joke, is completely okay. Telling someone "Oh shit you're getting completely raped" whenever talking shit with your friends over a game of Twisted...
