    Extra Punctuation: Pokemon 100 Percenters Are Mad

    One summer, I was sitting on the mat in front of my front door, next to my friend who started a new game several times, hooking up his gameboy with mine over a linking cable, swapping rare for rubbish from red to blue, then feeding them rare candies till the last of them evolved to its final...

    Extra Punctuation: Death in Videogames

    The clairvoyance thing is an interesting idea for a game. Of course it couldn't be in every single game or it'd get silly, but if it made sense in the story, it could seriously be used.

    Extra Punctuation: BAFTAs Are Bollocks

    Haha Yahtzee versus the ever stupid majority. Don't beat yourself up, it's always like that. Films, games, music - People just looooove their shitty things.

    Shaky Cam Games

    yeah I've seen it, I bet it wasn't the only scene this complicated, but perhaps the one with the most separate 'layers' ... pretty sick. Luckily that wouldn't be necessary in a game. see it. mind that it's different from all the other found footage films that came out recently. the newer...

    Shaky Cam Games

    I disagree with this Extra Punctuation to an extend, the first part that is. I like the handheld camera style and think it does have a tendency to give a game a more intense feel, if done right. It doesn't have to be completely over the line like in Kane and Lynch 2, although I liked the idea...

    Zero Punctuation: Amnesia: The Dark Descent

    Am I mistaken or is there no physical copy of this game? It's download-only? Cause that'd be really lame ... This game was gonna be a birthday present, you can't giftwrap a download ... well you can, but extracting a rar archive just isn't the same.

    The Common Mistakes of Horror Games

    Those are pretty good "rules" you pointed out. I've been thinking about these before. Some consciously (the music-bit), some I've only been noticing unconsciously (like the action-in-cutscene-bit), but now that you point it out, it's true. I haven't played many of the Final Fantasy games but...

    Zero Punctuation: Red Dead Redemption

    Yeah but that's kinda what he does, he points out these things (and blows them up a little bit for laughs), and then you decide whether you can still live with them being in the game or not. I'd still buy the game. I'd still buy most games that have something about them that interested me in the...

    Monster Hunter Tri

    Whenever Yahtzee reviews a game I haven't played yet but will in the future, I wait until I've played through it before I watch his review. When he reviews a game I've never heard of, I watch a couple of gameplay videos before cause I wouldn't want the first impression I get from a game to be...

    Character Names

    Yeah Mr.Yahtzee is writing the exact thought down I had about ten years ago, regarding the reading out of the custom name. Considering I was 11 then ... video game developpers seem to be a slow progressing species. But yeah, most voice synthesizers are pretty shitty in action (I believe the...

    Stealth

    In a way, I feel a game that involved all three "corners" and made them work really well together was Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee (and also its follower Abe's Exoddus, but not so much due to the added quicksave-option). The enemies from the beginning didn't get stronger, the situations just got...
