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

[ben---neb]

Once again an interesting, amusing but totally useless review. My thanks Sir.

 

[Britisheagle]

Out of all the games that are out at the moment suprised he chose this one. Ah well. Was rather funny as per usual so aint gonna complain!

 

[oppp7]

I pretty much agree with all of your reasons that Luigi is better than Mario, along with green being better than red and Luigi isn't overweight.

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?

No problem, just not my thing in any way. Then again, my last nintendo product was a Gameboy Colour.

I guess that's like me and the PSP. Well, that, and the lack of money.

Damn this was good! Had a lot more funny points than before, and I have to admit Luigi is much too underestimated

GOod job

I'm pretty sure Browser isn't out to rape the princess. Kidnap and take control of her kingdom, maybe.

Luigi always has and always will be my favorite. He's just such a joy when he's gone off some where to hide from a random Goomba or some other minuscule baddie. I'd personaly LOVE to see Yahtzee take the new Ratchet & Clank Future coming out Oct. 27th and rip it a new one. (Kudos to those who catch the reference)

Yahtzee: If you are remembering the "Everything's Out To Kill You" days fondly, you need to go play a little freeware game called "I Wanna Be The Guy." It's a reality check for that kind of thinking, if I ever saw one.

A few random thoughts:

1. I agree that The Thousand-Year-Door is the height of the Paper Mario series, but I still like Legend of the Seven Stars the best of all the Mario RPGs in the whole franchise.

2. Like Yahtzee, I've always had a special fondness for Luigi and Tails.

3. Given that I was just in an am-dram production of King Henry IV, Part 1, it's awesome and surprising to see a bit of love for Falstaff.

4. Anyone who likes Shakespeare and has a low opinion of kids should look into YSP [http://ysp.org/]. Seriously, I hated kids too until I saw a YSP production. It turns out that kids do have brains, it's just that lazy PTC-member parents don't nourish them enough (which brings me to one of my chief complaints against society: We treat kids like they're six until they turn nineteen).

I wanna see an Uncharted 2 next please!

 

[Megidolaon]

Mario, Luigi, where's the difference other than the color of their hats?
Ok, in some games Luigi can jump higher but also slides more, to the point where he gets unplayable.

 

[Yaxley]

The Shakespeare references and comparisons were unexpected, but highly enjoyable.

Oh, and I'm indifferent about Luigi, but Tails was clearly superior.

 

[Cheesebob]

May I ask, what happened to the Zero Puntuation contest where the best created game was reviewed by Yahtzee?

Has that gone under the carpet...never to be seen again?

 

[Buccura]

Is it just me or did Yahtzee breath into the mic a lot in this one?

 

[Canadamus Prime]

I'm going to take this moment to say I've never understood the whole 'second bannana' thing. I've always seen Mario & Luigi as a team, a pair of equals, like... um... I want to say Batman and Robyn, but that's a really a bad example because Robyn was definatly the sidekick and second fiddle, ...Thema & Louise if they were a pair of heroic plumbers instead of raving psycotic bitches on the rampage.
Maybe it's because I am an older brother that I fail to understand this, I don't know. But this is why I enjoyed the GBA remakes of Super Mario World and Super Mario Bros. 3, because it seemed to present the bros. in that team sorta way I'd always imagined them. In the GBA Mario 3 you could selcet to play as both Mario & Luigi in single play alternating between them whenever you cleared a stage or died and I loved it.
But I digress, the video was good as usuall and I may have to check this game out. It's funny I've not played any of the Mario & Luigi RPGs, since I've just been banging on about that whole team thing. I really should check them out.

... your mic was to close to your face i head you breathing

I thought he was reviewing ODST. Its a shame how he judges halo on the 2 worst games in the series.

He said he wouldn't review it in extra punctuation, seriously you should read it so you avoid redundant comments like this.
