Zero Punctuation: Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story

[randommaster]

An interesting review, and bizarrely close to my own views on mario and Luigi. I always preferred the green one.

Not that I'm going to be buying the game. For one thing I'd need to get a DS as well and the day I do that is the day I can be found naked on a ooftop singing I believe I can fly.

Also, woop first page and all that annoying bollocks.

What's wrong with the DS?

mmm... might have to try that out now. (why is there always some twatter that posts right at 11:00, only to get his post blocked?) anyway nice review and a nice look at the bowswer vs the mushroom kingdom.

Holy fucking shit.

That might have been the best ZP ever... er, EVAR! (and many more ! for some sort of retarded effect)

A Shakespeare reference?

Yahtzee you callipygian stallion... I think you may just be moving beyond the reach of your mindless fanboi masses...

Edit: oh, and the sphincter minigame was particularly fabulous.

Decent review. Hope you'll have more material when/if you review Brutal Legend.

Having an older brother is a disability.... I had 5...

I also prefer Luigi. I always preferred to play him in Super Mario World because he can jump higher and sounds marginally less retarded when he dies. Tails is similarly better than Sonic.
I was actually hoping for a Brutal Legend review this week but never mind, this was good even though I wasn't remotely aware that the game existed.

I was under the impression that "One-eyed Demon" was a euphemism for male genitalia.
The subliminal implications of Yahtzee's reviews just took on a whole different nuance.

 

[Jedamethis]

He's right, I always considered Luigi much better in almost all areas than Mario.
Except that trivial being the main character part

"Rawr submit your soul to a one-eyed demon.". That was actually a pretty awesome line and probably one of your better ones.

Overall a great video.

The plot of the game is btw laughable.

Great review. Not that i even knew this game existed until now.
Raising a fair point though, most of the support characters are always better than the main.
Tails and Luigi being the best examples.

a game inside Bowsers digestive system though? thats odd.

 

[tmujir955]

I agree with the Tails + Sonic bit. And Brutal Legend next, PLEASE?

 

[ZZoMBiE13]

That's two in a row that have really made me laugh out loud. I'm glad to see the humor making a return to the foreground of ZP. I'll be eager to see Yahtzee's take on Brutal Legend.

So whats a chip sandwich? Or Jammie Dodgers and what I think was Majestic Nadia?

 

[randommaster]

Two pages in twelve minutes.

Also, this seems to be turning into a Luigi support thread.

 

[caboose069]

Totally with you on the tails and sonic analogy

 

[WildManBill]

I didn't know Yahtzee had an older brother. It was one of the funniest in a while (I think).

 

[CopperKat]

Bah DS game reviews. This is like a snack between meals. The fact that you didn't mention how overused he is kept it from being bumped up to appetizer.

Although I really liked your take on the complexities of the mushroom kingdom.

I love the Mario RPGs! Especially the original, for the SNES. Man I wish they'd bring back Geno. He was the biggest badass ever.
