There are so many posts so it it quite possible that this has been said before. But I found the scene with the invincible-refrigerator from the latest Indiana Jones film to be quite hilarious! :)

I didn't find it funny in the film, though.

This is one of the better ZP's I've watched lately. It's a shame that he stopped having a different song with each review. Now my music collection has stopped growing.

"...and whistled for a baboon." classic.

yeah, quick save is bad, it can significantly warp your outlook on reality. For instance I had been play splinter cell 3 for a while and my dad and I had an argument, and I ended up saying something overly insulting. I then literally thought "I shouldn't have said that, I'll just reload a few seconds back and...oh wait this is reality." Morrowind on the otherhand felt much more like real life, because heaven forbid if you died it would take nearly half an hour to reload from you're last save point.

But then again for hard games like these, the quick save button is a far cry from the absolute sinister hard games of my childhood, the ones where it's really hard to get to a certain point, you end up fighting a miniboss who immediately kills you, you then spend all your time replaying said hard level, then once you meet the boss again you're under so much pressure to not die again that you get distract, die, and have to replay the level again in a fit of frustration.

Opening music still sucks.

One of the best things about Yathzee's reviews was and still is the custom music. Bring it back ffs -.-'

Please appreciate not hitting your head with a crowbar while I was in Sidney.

Edit: And now I'll listen to the old reviews for the awesome music choice.

Who is Michael Atkinson? Saw his name at the end of the show... Jw!
To elaborate on what was said earlier, Michael Atkinson is the Southern Australian Attorney General. You know all those games being banned in Australia? It's his fault, because he refuses to allow a MA18+ rating for videogames, and they need unanimous support before they can make that a law. Basically, picture Jack Thompson with power. I hate Atkinson, and I'm not even Australian. And apparently, he isn't very popular. [http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/news/people/sonny-bill-williams-most-hated-in-australia/2008/09/21/1221935506310.html?page=2]
And more to the point, Michael Atkinson is the sole reason why Australia does not have an R rating for video games. Therefore Silent Hill Homecoming has effectively been banned in Australia, because it was too violent for an M (mature) rating. Yahtzee was just pointing out that he's got the game anyway, no matter what Michael Atkinson's mistaken beliefs are.

A clever, nice review. BTW Ive head of a mod called oblivion lost for stalker:SoC, that supposedly turns the game into what it should have been like in the first place. Check it out here: http://stalker.filefront.com/file/Oblivion_Lost_10005_release;91748
Wow, thanks for sharing! Should bring new life into the original STALKER for me. Not to sure if I'll bother with Clear Sky now, seams most reviews have similar opinions to Yahtzee's.

Hey, have you guys read the error messages? They're not exactly Windows-standard, if you know what I mean...

Still, bloody brilliant review Yahtzee!

I cant tell whether the review is a complaint or a compliment.


But as for the bugs, the recent patches fix a crapload of problems (although they sometimes slap a few more bugs on just for kicks).
