Totally unfair review. I liked the game, although I am no fan boy. I know Yahtzee likes to be a shit for no other reason than to just be a shit but the review missed so many elements of the game. If you want a game reviewed properly by Yahtzee (is this possible????) don't nag him about it or...

It's a great game, very average review... didn't even mention Morrigan. You should have played it on PC.

Red Orchestra is the best realistic FPS I have had the pleasure of playing (frequently)

Do yourself a favour and play it with a mod. There are some cool mods that make the game challenging and you won't have to worry about PHAT LOOT becuase any stimpack or ammo you find is better than anything you can imagine! It's a shame that games are so dumbed down these days. I blame it on...

RP servers do not enforce old english. It's a misconception based on a stereotype. English (or any language apart from LEET speak) is good enough and stay in character. RPers do tend to have a larger vocabulary and use it in character. Which could be discouraging to the young or the uneducated...

I enjoy Pen and Paper immensely, but it's mainly a social event. For role playing I recommend you try a persistent world on a role playing server with Neverwinter Nights 1 or 2. It is the most intense role playing experience, especially if you get a good DM and it can be quite social as well...

Perhaps the Escapist can look at the possibility of computer games having the same role play and immersion effect that table top does. I have heard from many sources that it's just not possible to get the same effect from playing a computer game as you would roleplaying. However, this is simply...

I agree on the crashing... very annoying... patches that dont allow for save games... insane... But I disagree on your opinion of the difficulty level. Grow a pair. Yahtzee, swallow a teaspoon of concrete and harden the FARK up! Realism in FPS type shooters is a matter of taste. I...

Interesting article. I can't help but relate it to my experiences with running persistent worlds for NWN(1&2), which are like a mini MMO. In particular how players' characters develop relationships, some to the extent of role playing their sexual encounters within the relationship. Others choose...

It's interesting how price of a game influences a game review. I think reviewing old but good games is a worthwhile idea but of course Yahtzee really should... review Wii Fit you skinny git!

Hysterical. A highlight of my week. Thanks mate. (If we all harrass him enough, we could make him do a review of Wii Fit. Make that pasty white pommy arse bounce around!)

"For the first time in any game featuring SpeedTree, Unreal Tournament 3 is going to let players use the professional tree-editing features of the SpeedTree system to create and edit foliage in the worlds they develop. Content creators will enjoy an unprecedented degree of freedom as they build...

I'm so relieved I only intend to make multiplayer games.

There goes your cushy invite to Monolith. Looks like you have maintained your integrity... Well done.

Nice restaurants hey? Cushy hotel in Bellevue? Free pizza and zombie killing? Nice Americans! SOLD SOLD SOLD!! I can't believe they got to you already! Invasion of the goddamn corporate soul snatchers! Did you at any point think that your future reviews would be tainted? That showing...
