Best review I read in while and I find it adoreable that Yahtzee is finaly coming to terms that he doesn't just think WoW is a good game, he actualy seems to like it. Link: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/138-Age-of-Conan

I really wish this review was a lot longer, because I think there was a lot more he could've gone on to say. All in all, I agree with him once again.  Why do I write, create, fantasize, dream and daydream about other worlds? Because I hate what humanity does with this one. BOYCOTTING EA / ORIGIN going forward. Sorry TSW. |

Well although a lot of people may not like Yahtzee, the guy is usually about as spot on with games as tiger woods is with a putter or jordon was with a dunk. He pretty much sums up AoC in about 2 minutes or less. It's Crap. |

lol like he said, he's too busy kissing girls on the lips and buying yahts to give the game any real time, much less pay to play to get up to 80 most likely. If he did get up to 80 though, I think the rant would of been alot crueler to the game than it was now lol though i agree 100% with him lol |

LOL why the hell would he want to play the game past level 30? I think you are right though, if he had played the shit all the way to 80, his rant would have been 8 minutes long instead of about 2 or 3min. I think he gave it about 1 minute rant time for every 10 levels played. Yahtzee is king. |

it was amusing but not as funny as his review of The Witcher www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/22-The-Witcher |

I love his reviews. They're always accurate and at the same time amusing.

Can you amend your post title OP Should read Zero Punctuation, not Zero Puntuation, it sorta diminishes the effect when you have a typo in there, all in good faith. |

Always good, always accurate. But it's also pretty clear this guy has a particular dislike of all things MMOG, or as he calls them 'MMO-or-pi-ga' :) Except for WoW of course. I'd even say he got a few things wrong, such as the character creation. This review isn't as harsh as some folks would like I'm sure, and certainly not as harsh as some of the other recent Yatzee reviews. www.videosift.com/video/Zero-Punctuation-Review-Alone-in-the-Dark And Battlekruse continues his unblemished record of posting every bit of negative news, reviews, tidbits or over-inflated troll-worthy goodness. |

Zero Punctuation kicks serious butt! Always hilarious. :-) That's far from a harsh review coming from Yahtzee though. Check out his other reviews to get a feel for his style and you'll see. Only game I ever heard him actually praise is Portal - which is well deserved. |

I'd say he hit the nail right on the head with hyis character creation description. They had tons of clipping issues, so they nerfed the sliders so much that you can't make a fat or slim char anymore - they are ranging from slightly muscular to more muscular and thats all. Theres tons of sliders but many of them show only a slight difference when pulled from extreme left to extreme right. That was another lazy ass FC approach ... instead of solving clipping so the character generation works, they nerfed the char generation to solve the clipping. |

If only SW:TOR could be this epic...
most with a sence of humor will enjoy them, those who don't have humor often will feel he is spot on with his reviews.
