    If you could be any race.....and why

    The Le Man's 24 Hour. It's exciting and as much about good driving as about good support. Or maybe the Tour De France. That one seperates the men from the boys.

    Games you thought you'd love but you turned out hating them.

    The one I haven't seen mentioned is Halo 3. I bought it for the single player and was bitterly dissapointed. The multiplayer made up for it sure but still. Unreal Tournament 3 single player sucked and was too laggy on multiplayer for me. Street Fighter IV - too fiddly and difficult...

    Can someone please explain to me how anarchy is supposed to work? Edited

    It is impossible to know how anarchy will work. That's the point. You remove the system and allow a natural system to replace it. No one knows what kind of system it will be. It will develop out of the circumstances at the time. It may be freedom based, it may not. It may revolve around survival...

    Zero Punctuation: Mailbag Showdown

    Great fun this week Yahtzee. It ought to be very interesting to see how GTAIV gets reviewed. I just finished it yesterday and in all honesty i don't think it is a game at all. I think it is an interactive peice of art. Kind of like being able to walk around in a painting and interact with...

    Weakest protagonist EVAR!

    I'm thinking Jesper the Swede from Rockstar's Table Tennis. He hit harder than anyone else and lost all the time because you just drop shotted him and he'd miss or hit long. He lacks the ability to 'lean forward' - nuff said. Of course the same applied if you played as him. You just hit hard and...

    Zero Punctuation: Yahtzee Goes to GDC

    Though it is not worth noting Stoic doesn't mean what Yahtzee thinks Stoic means. I am not going to bother to go into the details here except to say that true Stoicism is simply accepting neccessity (i am currently writing a thesis on Stoicism so trust me on this). There is a difference between...

    Zero Punctuation: Yahtzee Goes to GDC

    I, who have found fault in Yahtzee quite a bit of late, challenge anyone to claim (truthfully) that they didn't think that was awesome. A wonderful return to top form. I can only hope this new found vigour continues. Yahtzee, this one has done you quite proud. P.S. Surely jerk doens't need to...

    Zero Punctuation: Call of Duty 4

    I wonder why he neglected to mention it is agonisingly short? Play it on easy and you are done in like 3 hours. (i did that to find all the laptops without dying all the time - i dont want endless respwns while i am searching). On hard, the difficulty fluctuates as bad as Halo 3 (which yahtzee...

    Zero Punctuation: Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles

    I did watch the review but i admit my comments weren't about the review itself but rather about Yahtzee's lack of progression as a writer. You can't simply do the same sort of thing every week and expect people to continually lap it up like it is new and brilliant. yahtzee has a basic style...

    Zero Punctuation: Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles

    Perhaps try reviewing games which are newer and more innovative - like your Bioshock review (granted system shock had been out a long time but most people hadn't played it and so it proved a fine review anyway. The Mas Effect one was good because Mass Effect is rather unique from an RPG...

    Zero Punctuation: Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles

    Oh Yahtzee, you seem to be suffering from SOSS (Same old s**t syndrome). your jokes all feel the same to me. I just didnt think this one was funny so much as simply ranty. I still enjoyed it but lately my enjoyment has been less and less. The comedic elements could really use sprucing up...

    Zero Punctuation: Super Mario Galaxy

    I did miss that delightful self deprication which gives Yahtzee that extra edge though. It was a bit lacking this week - especially as this is the holiday period. A few thematic jokes wouldn't have gone astray. But i still crapped myself laughing so perhaps it doesn't matter if the aim is humour.

    Zero Punctuation: Super Mario Galaxy

    Great as always. Has anyone taken the time to pause at the blue spoiler alert screen which lasts for one frame? It's pretty funny. And sums up mario pretty well too. Looking forward to next week.
