Saw this last night.

Iv noticed in his recent video's that hes been more reviewing games than he used to. He used to just make random joke about them ( Not that that was bad ) but its nice to see him technically reviewing them.

Was a great videos to! :)

1 min and 40 seconds, that's how long it took before I turned it off. He used to be funny but that was just annoying.

His the only reviewer I can stand that bags out the games I like. If it wasn't for the funny parts I would despise him, oh and I haven't watched skate 2 review yet. Have watched all before tho.

Everyone's been saying his vids have been going downhill since forever.
I dont think they ever really understood them to begin with since they're all essentially the same level of cynicism.

His reviews are only annoying if you like the game he's trashing. The thing is if he's not into a game or a genre he's not going to like it whether it's good or not. If he reviews FF13 in the future it's only going to be because of a contractual obligation and he hates JRPGs so he'll trash it no matter not many million it's going to sell.

He hated skate2 because he dosent like skateboarding games regardless of the fact that the control and gameplay concepts of Skate are a million times more accessible than tony hawk ever was despite his difficulty with it.

coupled with the speed of his visual in jokes it's almost a requirement that you rewind the video two or three times to get all the gags.

I tend to enjoy the ones on games I like, I know what he's on about and he's usually on the money with what he's saying.

Yahtzee is great along with "Unforgotten Realms" I look forward to every Wednesday/Thursday.

His latest videos haven't been as humorous but that could be because i've grown accustomed to his rants, still it's enjoyable.

Hmm.. haven't seen Unforgotten Realms, but you should definately check out Unskippable, it's very funny!

Always look forward to ZP on a Wednesday, although I agree, doesn't seem as funny as of late, maybe he's just being a bit to... 'random' with his references

Hmm, I didn't really like the two episodes of Unskippable that I watched, but I'll give it another try, and see if I do like it, as in general people seem to find it quite funny.

I do suggest you watch Unforgotten Realms, they are very funny!

Even if you love the game he is trashing you can see the point he is making usually and its funny! :p Such as the gears of war one with chest high walls everywhere hahaha, if you go in taking his word as law then your going to think 'his going downhill'. sigh :rolleyes::rolleyes:

I don't think he really trashed it at all. He basically went on about how he sucked at it, and bashed skaters more than anything.

The Eternal Sonato one wasn't very good but I'm surprised you didn't like the Lost Planet one, I thought that was one of their best (well, I'm only guessing you watched the first 2)

Watch the Grandia 3 one, I thought that was also really god. Off to watch Unforgotten Realms ;)

Edit: Sonata not Sonato :[email protected]:

Love the game and thought the review was damn funny! His descriptions of the buttons and their bodily control was hilarious. But ya i had to watch it a few times to understand everything he was saying...
