    Poll: Just One Thing Wrong

    if i make the assumption that what you mean is that everything else is 100% perfect, and this one item is so bad it makes boardgames look epic, then i would have to go AI. bad controls and bad camera just make a game really frustrating. music really makes my game, i would never buy a game...

    Trash Talk, Sledging, Dissing, Chirping... whatever you want to call it, where do you draw the line?

    i never trash talk. when people do it to me i ignore them. it confuses them mightily because they know i can see them talking, and that i can reply because im always talking to coordinate with the team. confused people spend more time trash talking, and are therefore easier to frag.

    Math problem regarding the Chernobyl accident.

    actually, its more likely you were kicked out for not knowing the difference between physics and chemistry :P there is a certain amount of overlap, but few people would call this a chemistry problem ;)

    People you hate in multiplayer

    apart from little kids, which i agree with 100%, i hate it when people play drunk. i have no problem with you getting pissed and playing a few rounds of whatever, as long as you can HOLD YOUR TONGUE! its bad enough in text communication only games, where you can always tell the drunk...

    The game you had highest expectations for that let you down

    you'd be wrong on the 7 years = good bit, its pretty average. your summing up of the storyline there actually supports exactly what i was saying when i said a standard formula. it would indeed be an epic tale, if i hadn't read it so many times before. for my quality sci-fi, i look to this...

    Why do you play MMORPG's ?

    because i can help people. i join corps and help chaps build stuff, i have a standard "mates rates" approach to building stuff for people. they buy the minerals not minable in high sec space in my current region, as well as the BPC, ill get everything else. it usually ends up being about 1/3 the...

    The game you had highest expectations for that let you down

    he always has a point. ive never seen him say something blatantly WRONG. misguided, occasionally. but never something where i could go "you're wrong Yahtzee, and heres why *paragraph*"

    Games That Desperately Need Sequels

    the tribes series. i loved tribes vengeance, although i know a lot of people preferred tribes 2. not for the storyline, that was allwyas nothing more htne a glorified training mission. it was the multiplayer. i swear to god, there is not and has never been a finer multiplayer game made...

    Game development sins

    my example for you is this: by the time i got to hells kitchen, i had like 2 clips of pistol ammo, some crossbow bolts, shotgun shells, AR ammo, sniper ammo. never more then 20 shots on each. now, in any other game, that would be a lot of ammo. but due to deus ex's RPG system (which was...

    The game you had highest expectations for that let you down

    i like Yahtzee reviews, they are amusing and they do pick apart the bad points of a game. however, i always take them with a grain of salt. he never has time to do a really in depth look at the game, due to the necessity of cracking out one vid a week. that doesn't mean his reviews are wrong...

    The game you had highest expectations for that let you down

    i know people are gonna have at me for this, but HL2 was an epic disappointment for me. i was told by all my mates that it was epic storytelling and immersive action and blah blah blah. i went into the game and it went like this: run around until you get to the point where alyx rescues...

    Game development sins

    games that require micromanagement of resources. i dont mind scaricty of ammo in an FPS, nore scarcity of resources in an RTS. but, i never got into age of empires, because handling 4 resources at once was to fucking fiddly. i never got into deus ex 1 because, although i could clearly see...
