Funniest review in a while. I completely agree that 3D Realms was a steaming pile of shit from day one and anyone who bought into it had their head up their ass. However I think you are naive for assuming that investors do proper research before blowing their money on projects that have a %0 chance of success. There are more than a few of gullible but wealthy investors out there- if 3D Realms hadn't taken advantage of them, then someone else would have.
Funny review but if he was going to do a joke review I'd have prefered it to be on Dwarf Fortress or Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
Well, as a fan of DN3D, but only having been slightly aware of the concept of Duke Nukem Forever until a couple of years ago, I still found this video to be hilarious. In fact, I think this is the most I've laughed at any of Yahtzee's videos, which says something because I tend to find his reviews to be pretty funny already. Of course, I knew it was a joke from the beginning, because I've been following some discussions about 3D Realms and DNF lately.
If you've watched all of Zero Punctuation up to this, you must understand by now that this is the way Yahtzee does things. It's almost inevitable that he'll eventually get around to a game that actually matters to you. You shouldn't let yourself be bothered by it, because this is what Yahtzee DOES. Even if you disagree with what he comes down on it for, either try to view it objectively enough that you can still laugh at the jokes, or at least ignore it, because he treats every game that way.
It finally happened. Yahtzee's tongue went through his cheek and wounded the part of his brain responsible for judging what's funny.
I'll help. ZP works because you have SEVERAL jokes in an episode, and you REVIEW something people care about.
This had ONE joke stretched out over five minutes and it was about something only video game reviewers care about. What's more, it's a joke we've all either heard or made.
Stop saying it's funny, you sycophants. The emperor has no clothes on.

Hilarious "review." The only thing more funny than it are all the people posting saying that they're going to try it not realizing the joke. Though I must say, for a joke review you did hit some true points about developers.
