The Zero Punctuation Jericho review.

one of the women was a mildly autistic girl with several phobias, she rarely spoke and it was never anything macho or sassy.
Dude, we don't have phobias, we have sensory issues. As much as I respect your opinion, you probably know nothing about autism.

God, I didn't troll, did I?

*Points to ZP* Pretty much that.
Yahtzee is right most of the time, but I do disagree on occasion.

i.e what he said about Killzone 2 being "Gears of World War 2" which I believe to be completely wrong and Saint Row 2 which was his "game of the year" but I played it and thought it failed miserably IMHO.

No no no.
A you didn't troll B you're right I know nothing of autism and C I think you misunderstood me, I didn't mean she has phobias BECAUSE of her autism, she just has phobias along with it (at least that's the way the game tells it.)

Not really a review but I hate people saying that Far Cry is a tube-run. Saying that just doesn't make any sense. What are games like Half-Life and FEAR then? Rail-shooters?

Any review that marks down a Japanese or Eastern game because it's... well, Japanese or Eastern. I always disagree with them. I mean come on, there is some truely wonderful JRPG's out there, but they always get marked down (although, most reviewers tend to find a way of making it seem like there not being bias towards Western games as they usually say things like "Oh, the gameplay's to hard in that JRPG")
Pretty much sums it up for me too Though Sage on that guy with the glasses reviewed SO:TLH in a respectful manner.

It doesn't matter if the game is reviewed unfavorably and I disagre,If they review it in a repectful manner,as in not being ignorant and just plain bashing the game, I don't get as angry at it.

Pretty much all of Yahtzee's reviews. He's a terrible reviewer and the fact that his fanboys do pretty much whatever he says means that they will miss out on quite a few great gaming experiences.

Also, any review that disses Oblivion without a decent explanation as to why. I accept most arguments, but not people who stop playing after the tutorial.
Do I detect sarcasm?

You know it's just an act and it's not to be taken seriously, right?
I know that. But some other people don't.

I know that. But some other people don't.
Considering his review of Far Cry 2 was about two and a half minutes of praise and another two and a half of explanation of why it ultimately fell flat for him, I don't understand why people wouldn't take him at least semi-seriously; it's like people's brains are so limited they can only understand praise or criticism one at a time. Seriously, Yahtzee's far more objective (and with his own tastes, of course) than I've seen anyone give him credit. It is an act, of course (because of the whole "people don't seem to like when I'm nice to a game"), but it doesn't mean he shouldn't be considered a legitimate reviewer.

As for my disagreed with review...the Angry Video Game Nerd's verdict on the Sega Genesis Addams Family game. It had a slightly high learning curve, but I don't think he gave it much of a chance.

I saw a Game Review (I dont know where) that gave Fallout 3 a 3/10 ???????????
thats what i disagree with
He or she must have played and liked Fallout and Fallout 2 beforehand.

It's a great game, but a not-so-great Fallout game.

This. I honestly can't tell if she's joking or not, due to her replies to comments.

The most?

The Australian official xbox 360 magazine (Damn Australians) gave Eternal Sonata a very positive review.
I bought it, it is the worst game I've ever played on my 360, and I've played Cabella's Big Game Hunter (which I bought after seeing that the same magazine had given it a bad review and thus thought 'it must be good then')

Gamespot/IGN/Metacritc user reviews.

EDIT: If I had to single out one it would be this one.

Its your standard this game sucks! Followed by a rant about the console using "****ing" words to fill it up to the minimum word count.

I've given up on reviews really, I just try a demo myself or at least watch gameplay videos. Yahtzee's hilarious videos I view as entertainment only. I will say I disagree with any review that gives the Halo trilogy metaphorical sexual favours.
