"Zero Punctuation hates Jericho"

Who doesn't? Seriously, I couldn't even finish the demo.

Actually, I liked the demo. It had issues, to be certain. Which is why I'll buy this game when it's $20 and not $60.

Yeah, there are demos that you like and then buy the game, and then there are demos that you like but know you wouldn't like the game if you bought it. Jericho is the latter.

No idea what Jericho is and frankly I couldn't care, but Yahtzee just has a brilliantly British sense of humour which rips the game into twenty pieces, each as brown and castle like as the other.

I didn't find this game as bad as most of the reviews or especially as Yahtzee.

Most reviews complain about how linear the game is, which to me not everything needs to be a sandbox or even have the illusion of being an open game.

The other complaint is the graphics which I didn't mind at all, I thought they were good...I wonder what settings some of hese reviewrs were using.

Its not an great game but its not awful either. For some reason some people just hate it. Its a lot like Lair in that respect.

Sorry dude but Lair was way better than Jericho.

Yahtzee is right 100% of the time, all the time.

I'm fairly certain he's stealing my thoughts and opinions.

Anyone that disagree's with him is one of the following:

1) An idiot.
2) 15 Years or younger.
3) A mindless fanboy.
4) A blatant brit hater.

Seriously. Dont hate him just because he points out the obviously flaws in obvious games.

Oh, and jericho was fucking terrible.

He can be a bit blunt and tends to oversimplify

But that helps his humor as much as it hurts any attempt at "legitimacy"

"Dont hate him just because he points out the obviously flaws in obvious games."

May I point out the obviously flaws in this obvious sentence?

I hereby nominate Yahtzee for an honourary degree in analogy making.

Yeah yeah, every week the headline from Joystiq is "Zero Punctuation Hates (on) [insert game here]"

We already know the review is going to be negative. That's why we like it, but please try to remember a little bit of that creative writing class you took that one time when coming up with a headline for the news article.

Apparently even he thought that the game gets "pretty awesome for a few minutes at the part when you have to fight a fat guy with a mangina." That alone makes me wonder about this game, but since GameFly finally shipped me GH3, I think my gaming needs for the next little bit will be satisfied.

While I don't always agree with what yahtzee says I always love the way he says it. Keep up the good work I say to no-one in particular.

Ugh this game.. I played the demo for about a minute before I had to stop. I just couldn't handle what a horrible waste it felt like.

Yeah well, I hate Zero Punctuation for talking way to fast. I couldn't take more than 20 seconds into his review before turning it off.
Slow the fuck down.
How's that for a review? Mind you, I'm not sticking up for Jericho (never played it), I'm just giving my review, on his review, of a game review.

Someone should make a review site, for game reviews.
You wouldn't be rating the game, just the game review...

So far ZP has never failed to perfectly agree with my taste, and he has never failed to entertain. He's about a step away from being the #1 VG reviewer along with Gabe+Tycho.

The demo was bad in one way, but the game was horrible in many others. The biggest flaw i think is that the teams "skills" are just so unintuitive. They just dont make sense. The controls are needlessly complex as well.

I better burn my college degree, and start working at wendy's. Some jackass on the internet called me a moron, so it has to be true.

Look shithead, I was just giving my drunken opinion.
Like I said, when you're drunk sometimes things sound better in your head, than they do on paper.
I wanted to delete the post after I posted it, but I couldn't. We all have bad posts, but there is no reason to attack me personally.

You know what's ironic? In this exact same post you typed.

"Anyone who says "if you disagree with [insert person]'s opinion you are an an idiot" is an idiot themselves."

You disagreed with my opinion on Zero Punctuation, and called me a moron.

So what does that make you?
