    It's generally funnier to hate things, but if that was literally all he did it would become kind of meaningless. Although Yahtzee clearly intends to entertain, he's also got genuine opinions and genuine ideas that he wants to share with the world. You know, like some sort of game critic or something.

    That wasn't meant to sound as patronizing as it did.

    I will take that bet.  Yahtzee will probly rip on Too Human in the same manner he did with  "Alone in the Dark"  A game that tried to do to many things but ultamitly failed to do anyone thing great.

    Yeah i wonder how many ppl that watch Yahtzee with the name Adrian got a stiffy for that breff second before he said he just wanted to mess with Adrians of the world...  probly non.  Heck how many ppl you know named Adrian?  I have only heard it once in my life and that was for Adrian Adonis.

    Yes but that taste is normally what everyone else dislikes :P I am looking forward to his Heavy Rain review though becuase it looks like his enemy QTE will play a major role in that game. :P

    Good review. Not as good as his usual work though.... And what was up with the Mike Wilson clip at the end ? That guy is a twat. I saw him for the first time in that Legendary demo but I still dislike him enough for a lifetime.

    They do have the nicest beaches. It was pretty surreal being on Bondi Beach (which isn't even close to the nicest, but is probably the most accessible) on Christmas Day seeing a female topless Santa Claus surfing.

    Also, all you British ex-patriots in Australia: wear sunscreen. Seriously. That yellow glowy thing in the sky will kill you dead.

    Oh, and Braid is awesome. Still on World 5.
