Zero Punctuation: Resident Evil 5

[Vlane]

"Capcom aren't bad people there just idiots"

I have now got the impression that any game made by Capcom is going to EPICLY FAIL unless some other brilliant company comes along and buys the rights from them before they can fuck it up. I played the RE5 demo, and it REALLY pissed me off, so i cant imagine how pissed off i'd be if i'd actually bought the game. Both Capcom's name and logo makes them look like they should still be creating games for the PS1. If a company like Epic Games for example, came along, games like RE5 and Lost Planet would be much more sucessful. I just don't think Capcom is cut out to make horror or shooter games.

Resident Evil 5 is already pretty successful.

And please don't write things if you have no idea what you are talking about. Capcom have made some [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel_vs._Capcom:_Clash_of_Super_Heroes] really [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onimusha_3] good [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_Fighter_3] games [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil_May_Cry_3].

So you didn't enjoy

Killzone 2
Madworld
Persona 4
Skate 2

Whats not to like about Street Fighter IV?

Whats to like about it? No, I didn't like Killzone 2 or Skate 2, My Ps2 died on me and I need a new one, and Madworld sounded kind of bland the day SCE Studios Santa Monica told me of their Zipper technology, and no-ones been able to tell me a strength beyond the gore.

Strengths include being the only good beat 'em up since god hand.

That and a great stylized art direction.

There are heaps of games that are good, stop trying so hard to hate them all.

I'm not - I said I've really enjoyed Flower, Savage Moon and Noby Noby Boy. My highlights from last year include MGS4, Resistance 2, Valkyria Chronicles and LittleBigPlanet. I just haven't found anything released in disc form that I especially liked since January 1st.

And I'm not exactly weaping with joy over the next big beat-em-up. I'm more into a pair of good ol' blades, attached to the most awesome character in gaming ever, and some of the best gameplay, level design, mechanics and just all around godliness ever seen.

Wow... You sound like you're waiting for God Of War 3.

"Fanboy is a term used to describe any individual who is devoted to a single subject"

Who would this be? because all i can see is you defending some one who doesn't even know you exists or give a crap :3

I suggest getting some sleep for school tomorrow.

Ah, yeah, that comment completely made your case. I bow to your superior intellect that has to insultingly call me "immature" to stand for one second without getting shred to bits.

By the way, I'm not defending Yahtzee. Which I never indicated I did to begin with, but since that's not very clear to you either, just thought I'd throw it out there.

"Fanboy is a term used to describe any individual who is devoted to a single subject"

Like someone so devoted to a single game that fucks up an entire topic without as much as proposing a solid discussion?

No, you're not a fanboy. Neither you nor your 20-something mature and articulated posts.

What's up with the way he pronounces Bowie?

He's a Pom... Bowie's a Pom... perhaps he's actually got it right!

I have yet to see you comment out side of "LOL IRONY"

Which makes your post completely irrelevant, you still didn't explain how i am a fanboy.

inb4 more nonsense.

He's right again, whatever happened to Steve the Pirate Merchant?

Read. It. Properly!

But when people start associating personalities with races (ie, "acting black") then that is racism and there are not enough hours in the day for that bullshit.

there are not enough hours in the day for that bullshit.

So there needs to be more hours in the day for racism?

That's what your saying?

Nice one.

Err, NO. Are you a troll or are you just an idiot who can't understand basic grammar?

It is obvious to everyone - except you - that I consider racism a waste of time and holding us back! What in the world made you think I want to have more racism or any at all? And how the hell do you add more hours to the day... slow down the rotation of the earth!?!? That is just down right stupid and have you NEVER heard the expression "there are not enough hours in the day for..."?

You are most definitely a troll taking quotes out of context (like excluding the part where I said I didn't care about black/white/male/female/etc) and then concluding something which is the EXACT OPPOSITE of what I said.

Yahtzee is great but there are some real assholes in his forums.

Nice try but the saying "Not enough hours in the day for [insert word here]" i used for something good, example There are not enough hours in the day for video games.

The way you used it made little or rather no sense what so ever.

:3 Enjoy.

All this trolling from you is getting unbearable, it is BLOODY OBVIOUS from how I structured my post that I consider racism and racial distinctions a waste of time, especially as I referred to racism as "bullshit".

You have to be really thick to think the phrase "there are not enough hours in the day for X" is only for things that are desirable yet time consuming, it ALSO applies for things that we are burdened with and waste a lot of time and effort.

It is becoming increasingly obvious you read through my post and just found one part that you could manipulate into something to ridicule another forum member. Textbook troll activity. Either that or you are a monumental idiot with zero subtlety or perception.

Why can't the mods get on your ass and ban you for good, you are causing nothing but trouble in these forums, spending half your time trying to twist posts into something controversial yet idiotic.

Cool your jets, i have only argued valid points.

If i am such an 'obvious' troll then why feed me? surly you would know that..

sigh, people these days can get so uptight over the smallest things like using a phrase in the wrong situation.

D'aww :3

OK, you've got me there... I guess I'm too picky. Or maybe I'm just stupid and missing out on some good games. Maybe if I play counter-strike for another 10 years I'll start getting good at it...

[/quote]

I swear I was being serious. Looking back, it seems pretty dumb that I've spent 10 years playing counter-strike and I really do suck ass at it. I've probably missed a ton of great games just because I hadn't yet mastered my favorite.

But now that's all cured because I'm stuck on TF2, and it's soooooo much better, and I don't completely suck at it. But i have nightmares... about them damn trigger-happy soldiers... leeching my resources... precious metals.... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

New topic: remember how much fun it was to run around killing all the scientists in Goldeneye? how come you can't kill the NPCs in games without getting punished anymore?

 

[300lb. Samoan]

There are not enough hours in the day for that bullshit

there are not enough hours in the day for your smelly farts!

So you say my farts smell? There are not enough hours in the day for your ugly face!

Err, NO. Are you a troll or are you just an idiot who can't understand basic grammar?
I said there aren't enough hours in the day for your flat buttocks!

THERE AREN'T ENOUGH HOURS IN THE DAY FOR YOUR CHEESY BiSCUITS

Cheesy biscuits??? CHEESY BISCUITS?!??! All I'm saying is racism is bullshit! There aren't enough hours in the day for ANY cheesy biscuits when there's SERIOUS BUSINESS to attend to!

Cool your jets, of course racism is bullshit, there aren't enough hours in the day for captain obvious here to point out every single flaw in our society!

No you!

NO U

I think I smell some happy-slaps a-cookin'

[jemborg]

Seriously the people who quote Yahtzee's "jokes" and then comment about how funny it is, you are like that retard at the party or get together who keeps telling the same joke or line over and over while no one laughs then says it again in hopes that people just didn't hear you ( while every one looks away, coughs and starts up new conversations with people who aren't retarded. )

Rule #32 from "The Idiots Guide For The Complete *****". ROFL

 

[Ghadente]

I'm surprised that he didn't mention the major annoyance of the lack of movement when shooting?
I played the RE5 demo and was baffled as to how could they not allow movement when shooting your weapon?! i mean come on who the hell stands still when they shoot a gun or use any weapon for that matter. This is the main reason why the game is difficult in my opinion. I'd figured they would at least approve upon re4 by allowing you to move! it just doesn't make sense to me that after so many titles they didn't fix this.
i may end up not buying this one

 

[Metalrocks]

Guess you better learn how to quote first.

First lets check out the scores for Resident evil 4, average of 9.6 out of 10 from 55 different review sites/magazines.

Whats this i see? not one mention of bad controllers in any of the 55 reviews! what a surprise.

Guess it must really suck, wouldn't have much tension either if you could just side step all those infected villagers..whats next you want regenerating health and a rock sound track to match all your other 'shooters'.

Well i guess if you can't comprehend something or rather ANYTHING different then IT SHOULDA BEEN DINOCRISIS HURRRR DURRR, then you will just have to miss out.

Oh by the way i love wasting your time because you are so honestly completely backwards retarded its funny :3

today you cant believe anymore these sites and magazines. they say to every game "its good". the same with crysis. all the sites and mags say its awesome blah blah and then you hear many complains about it. the same with RE 4. like you, they say its awesome and people like me who say its crap.

have you ever played RE 4 on the PC??? well, for the PC you like to use your mouse in a shooter. yes, i know, there is a mousepatch, but its useless. and before you say "yeah, PC is different", well, many who played it on the console dint like the game at all. also because of the controls, graphics, gameplay. they also say its the worst RE ever.
the mags said too, that the PC version is very good. even when they complained about the controls and graphic.

and i think you are completely backwards retarded. do you think all shooters have rock music and regenerating health??
ever played SWAT 3 or 4?

PS.
i liked RE but with part 4 they fucked it up.

i strongly agree with you there. thats why i dont bother to buy it. i am sure even for the PC they wont change that.

 

[BrUS]

It's always best to watch Yahtzee's reviews when you've played the game yourself ^^
...Although I like Resident Evil 5. But it would've been great to play through the game alone, too, since it's a little bit more scary. Either way, Capcom focuses more on the panic instead of horror in RE5.

It's nice to play through the game with a friend, though!

 

[Booze Zombie]

Good video, though some people found the inventory system to bring a more tactical feel to the game.

Plus, wasn't the whole spear chucking, traditional clothes thing explained to be a part of Las Plagas? Something about the mind regressing to traditions and violence. Much like the Spanish peasants in the black robes in RE4.
