I agree with Yahtzee's burnout on realism in shooters. When it comes to good game design, implementing realism should be a means to making an immersive game, not an end.

"But some can shut their fucking mouths"

That made me chuckle all over my late night cornflakes. Sounds a bit like Yahtzee is slightly pissed off/stressed. Can't really blame him though. Anyway great review and the game looks like a bit of fun for a while.

So I'm kind of guessing Yahtzee is a cat person? Haha, awesome.

Funnily enough, and rather ironically, he actually made this game sound like something I'd want to buy. Not at full retail price, but I think I'll get hold of it once it's dropped. Blowing stuff up for no reason and doing generally crazy things is rather appealing after so many realistic games lately.

Huh... game I'm no interested in at all. Maybe he'll hilariously rip it apart.

Huh... still not interested, and now I'm also not entertained. Way to break an awesome streak, Ben.
Troll translation:

Ben didn't agree with me, I don't like this game wah wah wah.

Anyway, another great review yahtzee, maybe the best since borderlands.
No, haven't played it, so I have no opinion on the game, other than disinterest. I just thought he was on a streak of awesomeness for the past 4-5 videos, and that this broke it. So, I'll provide a translation of my own.

Dickhead translation of your post:

I call anyone who fails to worship at the temple of Yahtzee a troll. Please excuse me while I slob on the knob of someone who doesn't care what I think.

Is it sad that this is the highlight of my Wednesday? xD

Anyways, entertaining review still, though I don't know much about the game itself so I guess some of the points were lost on me.

I own the game and yeah...what he said pretty much sums it up. All he left out were the ninjas and the really really really bad asian accents.

I am a bit confused about one thing...Yahtzee hates the stronghold sequences from JC2, but Saints Row 2 (which he loves so much) had practically the exactly same formula for their stronghold missions.

The enemy AI in this game is odd. Why have an AA gun in your base if you are not going to use it to shoot down my chopper, instead they rely on their puny little side-arms.

Why even bother having all sort of vehicles in their base and not use them, they didn't leave a tank there for me to steal it, right?

At least, the game world is pretty, I still can't get enough of flying around or driving along the coast, and that island with the japanese grampas was a blast to play through.

A really funny review, the first game was good, the big map gave it a lot of life, I hope the same applies to this one.

Ifelt about the first pretty much what Yahtzee felt about Painkiller; a game for mere fun and everything else is irrelevant.

Great review. It's the funniest in a while actually, had me giggling like an idiot.
