An unofficial list of games not hated by Yahtzee

[enersha]

I am only going to ask this once, and it isn't rhetorical, I really want an answer:

Why do you care?

EDIT: Oh my god, I'm the only one to bring this up in three pages. This is pretty bad, even for the Escapist. As the internet would say, for reasons I don't really understand, AND DON'T WANT TO, "Son, I am disappoint." Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go wash the meme of me before it gets infected.

cuz it reminds me of which quazi-unknown ps2 titles he recommended in the past without having to go back and listen to all his reviews, i.e. hitman, thx you combined powurz of teh internetz

Personally, I'd say that the perception that Yahtzee hates the overwhelming majority of the games in reviews is false. Rather, he's been tasked with nitpicking them for comedic value, and so nitpick them he does, to the point where he sounds like he hates the games even if they moderately amuse him.

I will say this much, however: MMORPGs and JRPGs clearly aren't his preferred genres. The former he likens to so much pointless back and forth kicking of shins with minimal influence, the later he rather doesn't like the style.

in russia point misses you.

To quote le wiki:
"Psychonauts, Bioshock, No More Heroes, Left 4 Dead, The Orange Box, Painkiller, Saints Row 2, Fallout 3, Shadow of the Colossus, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Dead Rising 2 and Batman: Arkham Asylum are some of the few games that have actually received a favourable review - Saints Row 2 and Batman: Arkham Asylum were named as his Games of the Year in 2008 and 2009 respectively. The Valve game Portal is the only game he has ever reviewed in a completely positive manner and is rated as one of his top 5 favourite games of all time, the other four being Silent Hill 2, Spider-Man 2, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Fantasy World Dizzy, all glimpsed in one of his videos, albeit blurred."

[Sn1P3r M98]

He liked Amnesia: The Dark Descent.

 

[ReservoirAngel]

He didn't hate Fallout 3

 

[Sinclair Solutions]

Can we include Enslaved: Odyssey to the West here? He eventually admitted he cared for the characters and that the basic structure of the game was good.

Did he not completely dislike "The World Ends With You"? That's one of my favourite games, so I hope so.
