"If gaming was a disease, the first symptoms would be amnesia. And then kleptomania".
Oh god, so true. I love ZP.

I tried to download the demo via Steam for the Mac... so far without any possible load up or "boogy woogy". No matter because while I LOVE slow paced horror and Lovecraft, I can wait since I'm currently wrist deep in other releases, not necessarily mainstream either.
Now despite the joke out blood being jam... I could go for some jam right about now... but not a s*** despite the conclusion.

Thank you for teasing with the fanboys of halo! And thanks for reviewing another horror game, I love when you act out your scared self. Looking forward to any more horror game reviews. P.S. please troll the piss out of halo reach, I want to feel a bit glad that I shelled out for PS3 instead of a 360.
I've only managed to play about 45 minutes worth of Amnesia so far, because despite being a massive horror game fan this one turns me into a spineless, quivering wuss. I haven't been this creeped-out since The Cradle in Thief 3, or the month I spent loading up AvP and listening to a scuttling facehugger round the corner for a minute before shutting it down again. I hope this review brings plenty of well-deserved sales and attention for Frictional Games, since Amnesia's been a very tough project for them. From their blog [http://frictionalgames.blogspot.com/]:
A horror game that's actually... SCARY?!! It's a sign of the Apocalypse! C'Thulhu is coming! The earth will burn in a sea of death! We need to prepare for the oncoming hoards of Zombies, Demons, and Goombas!
OT: Nice review. I don't have steam so I am not buying it, but I am not into horror things (Though for some odd reason I am addicted to this forums "The scary thread")

The game is awesome, I preordered it in first weeks and haven't regreted a bit. It's immersive, scary as heck and just keeps you wanting to more. Little paranoia is not a problem, I don't mind not going into dark anymore.
Also the review was great, maybe not 100% hilarious but still spot on

Well done Yahtzee, not only have you baited the Halo fanboys (of which I am not) as well as baited the anti-fanboys who came here hoping you would eviscerate it and plaster it all over your walls (that would be me), you gave a bit of publicity to a little known developer.
I must say though, "GREAT PISSING BLIMEY THERE'S JAM COMING OUT OF THE WALLS", best recent Yahtzee quote. Made me have to go get another beer, nearly sprayed it all over my keyboard in hilarity.
On another note, is there someplace i can buy the Imp hat that you used for the depiction of "regular viewers"?
