It was only a matter of time.

Thats a good parody and I think it would be fun if he'd do more parodies of Yahtzee. If this guy would do reviews of internet games (I'd love to see what he'd say about a huge game like N) then it'd be brilliant.

Heres hoping Yahtzee hears of this guy and has a go at him in his next review. Would be quite funny. It was well done and had good sense of humour similar to Yahtzees. Its also funny because it had to happen at some stage.

I also think it's hilarious that the author has the same version of Cool Edit that everyone else on the internet has. Thanks, Peter Quistgard!

Fail.

For those of you wondering who made it, the creator is poster GSM ( http://forums.penny-arcade.com/member.php?u=5453 ) over at the Penny Arcade forums ( http://forums.penny-arcade.com/index.php )

Amusingly enough Kotaku posted this article earlier and erroneously named some random blogger who linked to it as the creator of the spoof. Nice to see Joystiq can give credit where credit is due.

I can only understand some of it =(

At first I read that as "Sony riffs; by Yahtzee, The Art of Theft". Like Yahtzee was going to make fun of how Sony steels just about every one of their good ideas, aside from the Eye Toy..

What it actually was was still decent but I like my version better.

He didn't do a bad job though.

That was pretty good. Hope he does more. XD

Nice attempt, good tribute.

That was really well done. I hope yahtzee responds in some way because that was pretty fucking good.

I dunno. I've played Trilby: Art of Theft, and there's a move that lets you sidle against walls while pressed against them. That's why it's a toggle switch. It's a really cheap move, and I'm surprised he wrote the review before getting it. Other than that, it's a pretty good spoof.

Sorry, but that was the most god awful parody of Zero Punctuation anyone's ever done. I'm pretty sure you yanks loved it, but there was no form of humour in that video what-so-ever.

Hahaha,that parody was priceless.He should do a parody of the AVGN next.

He did and excellent job of actually reviewing the game, something yahtzee rarely does. Therefore the video fails as a parody/ jk I actually thought it was pretty good.

I didn't think it was that great.. maybe the lack of a British accent destroys the charm. =p

It's very very poor.

I think he'd have been better not speeding up the voice.

I am sorry it just isn't funny. The humor isn't dark there is not anger or contempt for the mediocrity of the game, it was just bad impersonation of Yahtzee. Just shows you He knows what he is doing.

Yahtzee should stick to his frantic game reviews.

I laughed. :)

There might be some punctuation, shame there's no fucking spelling. Or clear gaps between the monotonous drawling. I gave up trying to understand the words and tried to look for visual gags. But good christ, I'm not going to watch it again to see if I can find any.

definitely a fail...

I liked it.

Also I JUST played Karma Chameleon on DDR Hottest Party so +1 for that!

The visual jokes were quite well done.
That's all I can say for it. Honestly.
Truly, Truly Terrible.

This wasn't as bad as i had expected, having played most of yahtzees games (which are by the way some of the best free games available on the internet) i understand some of his gripes but you have to bear in mind that he designs his games on a very basic program not 2 bad a review though i don't think yahtzee took it well though (see his latest post) on the other hand yahtzees comments made me come out and look for this game therefore giving this guy some free advertising lol

This isn't funny, your voice is annoying, and why would you parody something that's supposed to be funny? Almost always these things end up being less funny than the original or, even more often, not funny at all. Make fun of stuff that's bad or overrated, for gods sake. This is just obnoxiously icky.

I thought it was funny. Good job dude, don't listen to these bitches.

"Except for putting an HDMI port on a console."

Not inventive, it was a matter of time and progress; inevitability is not theft.

"And putting a dedicated 3D chip in a console."

Not inventive, it was a matter of time and progress; inevitability is not theft.

"And putting a DVD drive in a console."

Now that's just obvious.

"And playing DVDs on a console."

As is this.

"And dual analog sticks on a controller."

PC: Mouse and WASD is pretty much the same, almost a carbon copy.

"And memory cards (yeah, an idea past its prime, but any Saturn or 3DO owner could tell you how they wish they had them back in the day)."

Not really. I enjoy sitting down to play a game and watching time fly. Call yourselves gamers? Bah.

"And internet play on a console (EA games were online-capable on PS2 months before Xbox Live launched)."

So internet play is not stolen from the internet/PC?

In conclusion, stolen or it was going to happen. Just because someone did something first doesn't mean they were the first to think of it, or invent it, or make it.

Anyway, all companies steal and improve things.

This is just sad, such a wannabe, try thinking of doing something original instead of doing an obvious rip-off, your not brittish, nor as fast of a talker, so dont try to imitate one who is, and to all the people saying they'd love to know what yahtzee thinks about this, here's a quote from his review of "F.E.A.R: Perseus Mandate":
"Also could the person who made a ZP-style review of Art of Theft while i was away please forward his name and address to the Escapist so that i can burn his house down"
