    Extra Punctuation: Not All Sequels Suck

    Yahtzee, this should be a lesson in thinking hard before you say something as big as that.

    Enslaved As It Should Have Been

    *cough*DmC*cough* And to be honest about it, if anyone were ever going to make a video game out of Journey to the West (or most other legends), they should just stick as closely to them as possible while downplaying the boring parts. Otherwise, they shouldn't try to pass it off as the...

    Shaky Cam Games

    Well Yahtzee, the reason I'm guessing "shaky/handheld cam" is being used in games now is because of how they're going for a more "cinematic" feel these days. Handheld camera is used in films when there's a real intense scene going on and isn't just relegated to "Cloverfield" or "Blair Witch"...

    Zero Punctuation: Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days

    Dear lord! This has to be the harshest review you've done yet Yahtzee! I'm not even going to rent this game in fear that you'll personally come around to my house and call me something nasty.

    Go hate games by yourself.

    Zero Punctuation: Viewer's Choice: Duke Nukem Forever

    BLOW IT OUT YOUR ASS Now all we have to do is wait for Yahtzee to review the actual game next year and say it's shit. But I already know I'll love it anyway. I always bet on Duke.

    Poll: since when was nudity ok in videogames?

    Uh, there's been tits in mainstream video games since 1996 (at least, that's when I remember seeing it first). There just seems to be more games with nudity because the average gamer is over 18 at this point. And that's fine. I don't see any problem with it if the game is for people over the...

    On Difficulty Levels

    God Hand had a cool way of determining the difficulty. When you start a new game you get the "Easy - Medium - Hard" choice (and depending on which you pick, Gene will either call you a wimp or tell you you're a bad ass). But then, in game, you have this little level metre with a picture of a...

    Kratos

    I dunno. I don't think Kratos became a paradoy of himself, but rather, his personality changed. He gets more consumed by rage as the story goes on. In 1, he's grieving over his family every now and then, but wants Ares dead. And he gets especially pissed off when Ares impales him from 100 miles...

    Zero Punctuation: God of War III

    It shows excellent graphic design. With having little going on in it with the red giving a high contrast against his white skin, it's very eye catching. Also, even though it's only an eye, you can instantly tell it's Kratos, and the frown shows he's an angry guy, which is what the whole game...

    Zero Punctuation: God of War III

    It doesn't matter how much credit a reviewer has, as long as they present themselves in a reasonably respectable way and yabber on long enough about how a game is bad, even if they're joking or exaggerating, there will be someone to agree with him/her.

    Zero Punctuation: God of War III

    That's totally true, but it bugs me to hell when I see someone commenting "Wow Yahtzee, I didn't realize that game was so bad. I won't play it now!". And to be honest, he does raise very good points on video games every now and then that most people can agree with so it makes sense to take in...

    Zero Punctuation: God of War III

    If it's just Kratos's drive that you find unrealistic, Zeus didn't kill Kratos because he was killing too many people as the god of war, it was because he was afraid he'd take his place in Olympus. I don't know how many times it's mentioned that Zeus was filled with fear in the game. He killed...

    Best of 2009

    I couldn't agree more with the "NOBODY LIKES DESMOND" point. Dear lord, the whole plot Des and his future pals bring to the game bores me to death. The game is called ASSASSIN'S Creed, not Futuristic Treasure Hunter's Dream Time. I like pretending I'm a sneaky assassin from a time where...

    Betrayal

    Can't help but notice you left Bioshock out of the "shitty betrayals" list there fan-boy. But if you want the most treacherous bastard in all of video game history to (dis)grace your screen, play Tony Hawks Underground and say hello to Eric Sparrow. From the very first mission, he gets you...
