    WHY BATTLEFIELD3!!! WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME!

    Uh, no it wasn't developed for PC as primary. It started out like that, as with all games then promptly switched to console. Dice Devs have fessed up and admitted this, much to the chagrin of us PC gamers.

    Zero Punctuation: Saints Row 2

    As for a review of "Dead Space", that would be interesting to say the least. I hope he mentions the truly atrocious PC port of the game (the key-non-mapping function/non-function). And I didn't think EA could get worse...I was wrong.

    Zero Punctuation: Saints Row 2

    Found myself laughing at this one, rather than just smirking as of late. Personally though, I'll be waiting for Mafia 2 as I've had the GTA series up the neck (as of San Andreas), and Saints Row holds no interest for me as a non-American.

    Zero Punctuation: Eve Online

    Not your funniest by half. I think you were actually serious this time. Saw you on Saturday at Toowong Village (you MacDonalds hound)...was going to ask what you were doing this week but you went for seconds. Now I know, maybe next week will be better.

    Zero Punctuation: Painkiller

    It's a fun review of a pretty boring game. Might have to give it another go, but I just found the action gameplay repetitive and ultimately boring...kill everything you see, period. Then again at $7, who can argue it's not worth trying? Gotta stop drinking coffee when watching Yahtzee...my...

    Games you wish you HADN'T bought...

    Clive Barker's JERICHO-terrible console-port Imperial Glory - so much promise ruined by poor implementation. Dawn of War-Soulstorm...an unfinished, unrealized beta product with b-grade production values. Medal of Honour:Airborne - short game and the patches are way too large to continually...

    Zero Punctuation: Super Smash Bros. Brawl

    Funny as always, but wouldn't mind seeing a PC game reviewed, or are we PC Gamers beyond reproach. Plenty of multi-platform games out there at the mo, or is this just for console gamers (term used loosely).

    Zero Punctuation: Sim City Societies

    I saw the game to be reviewed and thought "Oh hell, how boring". How wrong. Spot on review...and funny as hell again. Liked the TF2 bit as well, tho I thought something violent might have happened at the end, like revenge. Maybe I should get "The Orange Box".

    Zero Punctuation: Call of Duty 4

    Excellent. Had me laughing again, as most since "BioShock" and "GHIII" have elicted only minor chuckles or smirks. Bang on the money with this one.

    Zero Punctuation: Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles

    Liked the picture of our hometown Brisbane, but Yahtzee's right. Can't get a bloody thing here unless you order it in. Fun review as usual...can't beat BioShock for me yet, though (Guitar Hero III came close as did Crysis).

    TimeShift: The Story Behind the Game

    Seconded. I've played through CRYSIS, CoD4, UT3, and the closest comparison I can come up with is a cross beween GoW and F.E.A.R. ike the latter, it is a very "funnelled" shooter with several simple puzzles, but a whole lot of fun to play, and replay (and as violent...in a cinematic sense). I...

    dingrats: "Just Loot It"

    15 seconds and I felt I was watching Amateur Hour on U-Tube all over again. I think I'll watch videos of front-end loading washing machines instead. Sorry guys, that was hideous.

    Merry Christmas

    Zero Punctuation: Mass Effect

    Some PC reviews would be welcome now mate! Great review again, though. I enjoy RPG's (like to see you do "The Witcher") but I take this for the wildly funny entertainment it is.
