    He bash every game he reviews. People watch it for the humor, not whether or not they should buy the game based on his opinions. Actually, the only game he couldn't find anything wrong with was Portal.

    I like Yahtzee but i dont understand his fanbase.
    They praise every "review" he does, yet they dont realise he gets paid to badmouth games.

    Yahtzee is a professional troll....he had already claimed this title himself in the past.
    If you fishing for hours at the same place and you become confident that everything is fine and safe, its will mean one thing; You are wrong. Because i was actually sitting near of you for hours, cloaked in the shadow with a smile on my face and my daggers ready to strike. I did it many time before. I will do it again.....and again......

    He is a videogame reviewer. A very funny one at that.
    You don't have to justify the fact that you don't know him by basically saying everyone who does is wasting their time and has better things to do.

    sounds like a doucher then if he goes around bashing games for a living. Critics are the biggest joke. Who gives a crap about your opinion. And the people who listen to critics are just as bad. Oh, i won't go see that movie, this critic didn't like it. Make your own mind up after you see the movie, play the game, or eat at a restaurant.

    Because the toons are hilarious and he usually reviews games as they should be... harshly!

    though it is not just bashing and badmouthing take Arkham asylum for a start... or Just Cause 2 or Amnesia or Limbo and so on

    I agree, to an extent. While it's true that you should witness something yourself before judging it, internet critics have become rather popular recently, mostly because of the humor they use while they rant. Yahtzee, Linkara, TGWTG, they all employ humor in their work, it makes us laugh, and thus people come back to watch their videos.

    Heh, same. I've never heard of this guy even once before. Shrug.

    he tawkeded so fast my brain hurtz now

    As others have already said, just take him with a grain of salt. He's an obligate iconoclast and takes a dark spin on nearly everything. The number of games he says more good than bad about can be counted on one hand. He can be a tad repetitive with some of his jokes but he also has some of the funniest one-liners I've ever heard. So if you get really upset when he rips into your favorite game (as he undoubtedly will) then you'll be a lot happier avoiding him, but otherwise I think he's rather worth watching (at least on occasion).

    I'm surprised he would review it though. He flat out states he hates MMORPGs. But, then again, he did review Tabula Rasa and Age of Conan...
    "People seem to misunderstand me about this, I don't hate MMO's, I hate what they do to people, turning them into basement dwelling creatures made of cheetos and flab"

    and OMG he DIDN'T rip it a new one!
    on a scale of "never happening" to "holy shit, did you actually need to kidnap him to get him to say that?" it's probably closer to the second :P

    I expected him to roll a warlock though... what with all of the destroying things others hold dear...

    But then how will he feel good about himself?

    I know what he meant, and anybody that took a psych class should know it too. But I think it's funny how right he is about that. I know when I see achievement spams in gchat people say gratz regardless of what it was for. They don't bother reading what it was.

    Psych class?

    You learn all about Pavlov's experiments in 7th grade social studies.
