Zero Punctuation - Spore (17/09/08)

I'm somewhat busy over the next few weeks, so it'll be easier for me if you make a list of English insults (I guess they're from Yahtzee reviews?) and PM them to me.

I understand every word he says, Thanatos.

I would be able to understand every word if he just slowed down a bit. Why does he have to talk so incredibly fast? It doesn't add to the comedy, he's funny already. Not needed, IMO.

I think the fast talking is funny, although you are right he is funny enough already.

It does, though. If he talked normally, the reviews would be 2-3x longer. He's packing the same amount of funny into a shorter time-frame. Even though it's pre-written, it makes him seem like he's able to come up with funny shit on the ball.

After three hours of waiting because The Escapist decided to update their site layout (to a new, pretty one, I must admit), the latest Zero Punctuation is out, and it's about Painkiller, a game you'll never have heard of before.

Seeing as it's a game he wants to review, rather than one people mither him to, or a hyped up game that's just come out, Yahtzee is quite positive about it.

Yay for Zero Punctuation updates!

A JRPG this week - The World Ends With You.

Another one I've never heard of, but the review should be good, regardless.

That was the first time I saw Zero Punctuation and I was lolling the entire time.

I love this show.

Edit: Oh god today's was great.

It could only have been better if it had tits and was on fire.

This week, Mr. Yahtzee attempts to immerse himself in TES4: Oblivion, and uses a lot of references we English types will get (if you need any help with the strange language, my PM box is always open!).

Wow I forgot about this game then wondered why he didn't review it before, then I realized he lives in Austrailia. It, like all his reviews, was fair.

That was great. 2 more days till the next one.

Oblivion was a good review. Can't wait for his next. Thanks for posting these Lenny, I probably wouldn't have ever known about this otherwise. Great find.

Nothing this week, I'm afriad - some sort of award ceremony. Instead, the Escapist have re-uploaded his console rundown episode. Which, I have just realised, isn't on my list. I might as well link to it, then.

11/06/08 - Console Rundown

Yahtzee review another outdoor, space marine, FPS, and hilarity ensues - Haze. Rather good review. Plus you'll get a random advert for one of the features of the Escapist after the video.

I didn't get the time to post yesterday, so I'll have to do it today. Yahtzee's latest review is Metal Gear Solid 4, and I'm incredibly surprised that not once did he mention next-gen browns.

It's a strange one this week - Yahtzee tells us how to make a Webcomics!

Sooo... who can draw?

I've been very busy over the past couple of weeks, so this week I've got three links for you: Age of Conan, Alone in the Dark 5 and LEGO Indiana Jones. All three are brilliant reviews, though I'm saddened by the change in title sequence (he no longer plays clips from random songs but rather has a theme tune).

This weeks is a look at some of the games and trailers of this weeks E3 - E3 '08 Trailer Park. Including a very Monty Python moment in which he mentions Gears 2... and that's it.
