    Zero Punctuation: E3 2014 - Deflate Your Hype Balloons

    While I'm certainly hyped for some games (Splatoon and Sunset Overdrive stand out for me), I see where he's coming from here... E3 just doesn't feel hype anymore. The hypest thing that happened was the big Nintendo Smash Bros tournament, but that had nothing to do with new games. It really...

    I would have enjoyed 'X' if 'Y'

    I would have enjoyed Chrono Trigger if the battle system had been one that I could actually get into. Also if people hadn't hyped it as the greatest RPG of all time, but that's neither here nor there.

    Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

    Okay, I remember playing a weird point-and-click game when I was a kid. Here is what I remember of it... The plot of it involved this "cool" kid who was entering a contest to see who could find the best bug. He was at his grandpa's farm and accidentally breaks a bunch of eggs, so the grandpa...

    Zero Punctuation: Saints Row: The Third

    100% agree with Yahtzee here. While SR3 is still very fun, it is missing "da magicz" that SR2 had.

    Any Pokemon Game: If one of your pokemon faints in battle, they are gone. Done. Never to be heard from again. They don't get revived, they're gone forever. If you no longer have any pokemon anywhere, in your box or your party, it's Game Over. To counterbalance this, poke balls are...

    Unskippable: Let's Play: Legaia 2: Part 7

    FINALLY they figure out the AP System! I mean I admit it was needlessly complicated, but still. Does anybody know if they're just doing part of the game, or the whole thing? Because I'd love to see them do the whole game, as I recall it's not THAT long, like maybe half as long as the...

    How would you kill a god?

    Give Shuji Kondo a ring. He can kill anything, you know.

    It looks like Sonic is back on form...

    You know, I think I'm gonna take Yahtzee's "Guantanamo Bay Approach" to this game, and just assume that Sonic Team are going to find a way to completely and utterly screw it up. It's much better than the times I've thought they've brought Sonic back to his former glory, then gone "LOL THERE'S...

    The Saints are going to the Superbowl.

    I think the big factor in the game tonight was the fact that the Saints got 31 points, while the Vikings only got 28. I think that factor is the one that has the most to do with their victory. But overall an awesome game, and the Superbowl should be fun.

    Poll: So, would you press it?

    I can't even think about this question...the entire concept of the movie just makes my head hurt. Not the concept itself, but where it came from. The original short story was written by Richard Matheson, an absolutely brilliant science fiction/fantasy writer. He was also responsible for...

    If the Mythbusters could test your myth?

    Testing the various deaths from the Final Destination movie series to see if they hold up in real life. Oh, and also I think it's common knowledge that spiders don't get along with drunk squirrels

    Unskippable: Wolverine Uncaged

    YES MST3K joke. I see you went with the Joel version of the theme rather than the Mike version

    Zero Punctuation: Overlord 2

    I have never heard of this game before, but this was a pretty good review. I found it to be a lot more informative on the game than your recent reviews, but that is probably because I've never heard of this one. I feel like games where you get to be a dick are becoming more and more popular...

    Unskippable: Valkyria Chronicles

    "Later, 20 feet down the road" killed me. Another great vid, maybe one of their funniest yet.
