Zero Punctuation: Next Gen Buyer's Guide

[Deathfish15]

Damn straight, Yahtzee!

I was close to considering buying a PS4, but instead just threw the money into getting a new Haswell and accompanying MOBO. Fare better investment putting money into getting high-end PC parts and get Steam sale games. There's no exclusive games worth playing at all on consoles, and many of the PC exclusives are becoming far more enjoyable (Minecraft mods anyone?).

This was taken down and reposted.
Wtf.

I mean you could have just said "fuck off"
This is so passive aggressive though

 

[samus17]

Deja Vu much?

 

[Reyold]

Next-gen (well, current-gen now) is pretty much dead to me. I don't see myself getting any of the consoles anytime soon, if at all.

Though Hyrule Warriors does look pretty good.

 

[Shadow-Phoenix]

So why is this old video being reposted again?, oh that's right, to bash the new consoles and what they have to offer, to have no other choice or justification according to many here but to just get a PC which is mentioned a lot.

Glad to see we have the freedom to change others choices based on ones logic.

 

[vallorn]

Ah Yahtzee... propagating the PC Master Race are we? Thank Go-- I mean GabenN.

Never forget that his favorite class is The Spy...

Also I was sort of surprised we got a rerun this year although since that is what is mostly on TV it does seem sort of appropriate this time of the year...

 

[nodlimax]

Ok, so my mind is not completely f*****. I had the feeling that I've seen this episode before.

Anyway watched it again and the statement is still valid. No need for the next (now current) gen consoles. Sticking with the PC as always

 

[Elf Defiler Korgan]

Yeah. I agree. Not interested in the next-gen at this stage.

I've got what I need for the next dark souls and I have a pc (and steam).

Well I didn't get to comment on this the first time round. It was a pretty funny video and looking back on it now it seems weird. The PS4 wasn't even revealed at this point. Most of it has stayed the same though (Microsoft's change being the obvious exception) so I guess it's mostly relevant.

And it was re-uploaded because Yahtzee's on Christmas break, guys.

I'm pretty sure the rerun was "to make money for Ben and the Escapist and put up a video over the Christmas holiday because otherwise people would be all "where's Zero Punctuation? Was Yahtzee fired?"

I doubt Yahtzee needs a rerun to tell us how little the next gen consoles have to offer.

And it was re-uploaded because Yahtzee's on Christmas break, guys.

I thought last week's video said clip show for this week, so I was a bit disappointed. I mean, first I find out there's no Santa Claus, and now this. Could today possibly get any worse?

Deja Vu much?

I knew you were going to say that!

 

[Shadow-Phoenix]

snip

Would have been just as good to tell us to fuck off for wanting to buy a next gen though.

Either that or a pre recorded video for Christmas day ahead of schedule.

"Remember it's my Christmas break next week, I'll be spending it trying to think of five games this year I didn't totally despise". Well, that's what was said in the credits. I haven't really double checked each line of the whole video.

It didn't really imply that there would be any video this week.

 

[TheBlueRabbit]

So, who's going to flag Yahtzee for necroing a thread from 6 months ago?

I'm not sure him bashing the consoles in any way diminishes you or your desires, but okay.

I am probably misremembering. Severe chronic pain + relatives who are complete inconsiderate has made me a little insane today, I think.

Not me, but he totally should have used the search bar to see if this had already been posted. It's just good nettiquite.

No not really my own but it reinforces others opinions to sure as hell give anyone a time for choosing either one of them, not to mention how some can feel like shit if enough people shove hate in their faces based on what product they chose, that does happen in real life and not just the forums.

So the problem isn't even his opinion, it's a majority opinion and he is telling people the equivalent of fuck off for mocking things....

No. Still don't get it. But in that case, isn't he doing this basically every week, and aren't you maybe watching the wrong show if you find that objectionable?

I love his show, what I don't like are bloody parrots that end up doing the whole "PC master race" joke he'd made and turned into something worse.

I'm not going to stay away from one mans show because of his opinion, it's everyone else turning it into shit that's the problem.

Why are you even asking/telling me any of this?, I'm not even here for a debate at all.

The fact that people don't realize that it was a satirical joke is just kinda depressing...
