Well I lol'd quite a bit. I'm not completely objective to motion controls. As long as I can sit down and the controls match my hand controls I can enjoy it. This is why Kinect, as it stands, is absolutely shit. I will enjoy Sorcery on Move though.

Rebecca Mayes is easy on the eyes, but quite honestly, that's about it, and SHAME on them for tacking this whiny piece of shit music video onto the end of ZP. What's next? Running commentary from Russell T Davies?

Attention Powers That Be, some people like her and her songs, some people don't. Please keep them separate so that those who like them can enjoy, and those that don't can keep themselves from having their psyches warped and ears ruined. Quite frankly I'd rather listen to Diane Sawyer sing about the economy than hear Rebecca sing about anything. At all. Ever.

For that matter, I'd rather hear Yahtzee spend 5 minutes talking about how awful she is.

Rant over.

How come you haven't reviewed Metro 2033 yet? You obviously know it exists, based on this video.

Good video, of course.

Good vid, finally one I agree with completely. Motion control can shove it. Skipped Rebecca Mayes though, not one of her beter songs.

I just never bothered. Like most games I'm happy just going through the main content, which she isn't a part of (it's also why I don't post here often). I thought it was entertaining though, and thought that if Yahtzee did get a stabbing it would go something like: 'You call that a shank? You even stuck it in my bloody shoulder! Okay that was a bad pun, but were you hoping the I keep my heart, brains, or lungs up there!?" Then go on to rant about how people who complain about so-called small hitboxes must be playing with their feet. Or tounges.

Oh, and OT:
E3: nothing new, move along.

I'm a little curious if Yahtzee has played Metro 2033. I want to know if he liked it at all. From seeing the context of it in the video I'm guessing so.
thats what i was thinking
i think he got so many new games around then, its now too late until the dry season

So she invited him for a drink...I think the thing at the end is a hint that she likes screwdrivers! Which is ironic because I'd go out with her for some vodka. Although, did you really need to include it at the end? I don't mind the video but I'll admit I had my hopes up for an 8 min long E3-hole tearing review! Seriously, ANOTHER GoldenEye???? WTF!? Oh well, I guess we're addicted to mediocrity.

Good review as always, a reason to enjoy the middle of the week!

the last thing I want to see when I go for my weekly fix of pure bile and hatred of everything game related from Yatzee is some feminist whining and moaning, like they always do, about her feminist problems that have nothing to do with gaming. At the start I thought it was a love song for Yatzee, but no, she's a feminist so she doesn't do men I guess.

Wow, That's the third time I've seen someone tear down all the over-hyped stuff from e3 and I STILL haven't heard anyone mention anything I care about in the slightest. I guess Vanquish is either so good that no one has anything bad to say or everyone else is just completely ignoring it for some reason.

I'll eat my hat if Yahtzee had anything to do with attaching that mediocre pop dribble at the end there. I'm sure it was the Escapist desperately trying to look cute/make drama/elicit a response from him. Song was fun until she got to the completely meaningless chorus, wherein it became clear that it wasn't a song about Yahtzee, just a 'meh' song that she shoehorned a few one-liners about Yahtzee into.

I was wondering what the other half of the video was going to be when the credits hit.

I really dislike that song. Hate might be a strong word, but I gave Rebecca a shot a while back and think she's pretty bad. This song didn't help matters any.

I don't have much to say about the E3 video. The puberty analogy was funny, if crude even by ZP standards, and probably accurate. There doesn't seem to be much to E3 this year, and the commentary on it seems equally sparse. Yay, Kinect. Yay, Move. Yay, 50 rehashed Nintendo franchises that will make Nintendo rich without having to do any real work.

Summed up my opinion on motion control pretty well. As useless gimmicks!

I was REALLY hoping for an 8-minute long ZP. And I got a kick in the nutts at the end. It's like playing Portal, and you find out someone cut out the last 30 minutes. Which is 1/5 of the game at best.

If you still don't get it - not everyone likes Rebecca Mayes. Heck, most of the people dislike her, only a loyal fanbase remains. We don't want to hear her song for a reason - they all sound alike and are boring.
