^ I think his schtick is just starting to get old. These days, I'm finding myself less entertained by him ripping on games I had no interest in to begin with.

I imagine so.

I only watch the ones for games I've played. That means I only watch one about every 6 weeks. It stays relatively fresh that way.

That wasn't a very funny one, but h's right about the enemy AI. I found myself constantly exploiting how dumb these guys are, the way I used to beat PS1 games.

BTW : WTF is up with that forced commercial before the clip? That might be the worst video game ad I've ever seen.

My only real gripe with Yatze is that except for rare ocassions, he's sort of become the 'dark FPS of the week' reviewer.

Though to be fair, that does seem to be about all the game companies are making anymore.

Actually a pretty funny one.

He pretty much nails the game perfectly. Love the bloom stuff and the music. It still won't get the fuck out of my head.

If only he'd have recorded his review like one day later, he could have made a timely LOST reference in regards to the overuse of light bloom.

Even though I liked it, he nailed it.

Is it too spoilerific for someone who hasn't played the game yet?

Nah, I could tell you the entire story of the game and it wouldn't be a spoiler since it would make no sense to you whatsoever.

If you know the basis of the game, I would say no, but at your own risk of course.

He nails about 5 awesome things in there perfectly.

I love the fact that Yahtzee pronounces MMORPG like it's a word.

I still love that he has to bash Nintendo for reusing their characters and calling it a cashgrab, but he was pissed because Mario Galaxy 2 was delayed in Australia.
