    He's funny but he says a lot of good games are bad and seriously takes the piss sometimes he said portal was good compared to other games.

    Actually read the comments on the escapist, people DO avoid/buy the game based on his reviews lol
    One thing I love is when one week people are like 'Yahtzee you are a GOD!' and the next week people are e-mail'ing him raging at him about how he destroyed the image of a game, and how they hate him, will boycot his videos, the escapist, and how he mustn't have understood his own opinion or the game.

    Case and Point. Super Smash Bros Brawl. The Witcher. Monster Hunter Tri.

    EDIT: Oh we must not for EVE Online.

    I can't watch the video right now as I'm in a campus library, but I thought I'd add my opinion on the guy.

    Yes, he does add humor, yes he does rip the crap out of every game. That's fine. That said, he also makes a huge amount of very good points in nearly all his reviews. I usually agree with him. Fact is, it's totally true that no game is perfect and every game has something to criticize. That doesn't mean you won't enjoy some things about a game either though. His criticism of Halo: Reach for instance was totally on track, and I loved that game for the good things he said about it but can also accept that yes the bad things he said were present too.

    I enjoy Yahtze's reviews. I don't always agree with him but he's still funny, it's amazing how many WoW-haters there are out there. How can you hate a game you don't play...

    Very surprised he reviewed Cataclysm tbh. He refused to do Starcraft II

    People say it's his best review every week. For me, his Silent Hill 2 review was the best, because it was his favourite game and he was able to critique it despite his bias. Plus it was really funny.

    See avatar. I watched his videos for a very long time then I eventually got tired of his misanthropy and hate of kids, come on, it gets old after a while. Honestly, I completely agree with him on the assesment of the game and that's why selling your soul/almost all your time throughout the year (come on, we all know we play a bit too much over breaks from school/work) to some wannabe top tier end game raiding guild is so stupid. Basically if they aren't a nice or decent bunch and/or require you to be on all the time they aren't worth playing with. That said, raiding is about the interaction with the other players that comes along with the lootses/playing together ultimately.

    lol


    not THAT funny, but decent

    Yep, it is an awesome review and I almost *gasped* at the praise he has given WoW in it. Still, bash-worthy title as always

    I'm just glad that there are people outside the community that are willing to try WoW and give it an unbiased, fair assessment.

    This video reminded me of that part in the Human Centipede when the Asian dude first had to shit.

    Do keep in mind, he generally tries to be funny, and not to be taken 100% seriously.

    As with all his reviews.
