I just only watch them when I have an interest in that specific game. That keeps it from becoming too much of a good thing.

It's 5 minutes exactly in the middle of the week for me. Yeah, it's always the same ol' schtick, but it's usually good for a laugh or two at the ridiculous analogies or images.

"Glub glub" in the credits makes me laugh every time.

Re: Zero Punctuation Links
 

Not bad. Don't know for sure that I'd pick the same #1 he did, but that game is really up there for me as well. Bold choice.

And thanks for ripping on Metroid Other M. It might not be the worst game of the year (or even #2), but it was very disappointing and should have been so much better than it actually was. I still kinda hate myself for buying that from Amazon before seeing any reviews.

Re: Zero Punctuation Links
 

Normally I agree with everything he says, but this list is not even close. Dead Rising 2 should be on the "bad" list and Just Cause is merely OK. I would have personally chose Battlefield Bad Company 2 as number 1 based on his "Games I still want to play" criteria.

Re: Zero Punctuation Links
 

Which would make since seeing as how I tend to disagree with what he says yet can't fault a single thing on his Top/Bottom 5. :)

Re: Zero Punctuation Links
 

Nice, Just Cause 2 pretty much tied with Rock Band 3 for my favorite game of 2010. I found it to be much more fun than Red Dead Redemption. I strongly disagree with his hatred for Bioshock 2 though. Sure it was an unnecessary cash-in sequel, but it was still a ton of fun to play.

Re: Zero Punctuation Links
 

What's with the weird embeds lately (seemed to have started with the 12/22 entry, Epic Mickey)?

Re: Zero Punctuation Links
 

Dunno. They don't show up for me in Chrome but seem to if I switch to FFX, so I don't worry about it much.

Re: Zero Punctuation Links
 

yeah me too. I see a tiny video screen within a really wide embed area that spans the whole browser window.

I figured it out. The width and height for their embed tags are set at 100% which is why it's so elongated. Need to change this to width=640 and height =390

Re: Zero Punctuation Links
 

Good catch. I went back and changed my embeds. They weren't showing up at all in Chrome for me, so I don't know if it was annoying in other browsers.

That was not only a good one but one that I agreed with almost the entire thing.
