Posted November 18, 2007 Just wondering if anyone else had seen the video reviews of games by Ben 'Yahtzee' Croshaw. They are, in my opinion, VERY funny. Just as an example here is his unique take on halo 3: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=QPl2hhIGxWo What is everyones thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 My mates showed me these the other day. They are hilarious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 Yeah, he's brilliant. I always make a thing to check his new one out every Wednesday. Bioshock is still his best one imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 I saw this on the Neo-MPotD, and its fucking awesome! Thank ReZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 Ha, that guy is hilarious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 Yup, it's epic stuff. His Bioshock one was one of the best videos I've seen on the internet full stop. His orange box review was good too. In fact they've all been superb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 Yup, good stuff. They would be better if I wasn't English then I could laugh at the accent too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 Pretty damn funny but if the poor guy thinks that about Halo 3 I can't imagine there's anything out there that he can really get his cynical mitts on and be happy with. Certainly not a Wii title. Speaking of the Wii, this has nothing to do with it, so this is going to 'Other Consoles'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He even apologised for it not being funny the fact that he likes a game and declared that he would stick forks in his eyes if he ever said that about anything ever again.

I think exactly the same about Halo, and I enjoy a wide variety of video games including Nintendo games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 I remember the one he did about Darkness before he got picked up by whatever website it was (I forget) They're all fuckin' hilarious though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 It's all awesome. I just love his little drawings during the videos, like he drew a stickman stabbing a clock when he said "killing time". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Erm the thread is about someone who reviews games, not a Halo 3 review, on all formats including Wii so it does have something to do with Wii. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 This guy is great. Maybe on a par with the Angry Videogame Nerd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well there is a video with him talking about pshyconauts which he talks very positively about it. (And why not! It´s great :Þ) I agreed with what he said about Halo 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 This guys been posted all over the other consoles threads. I love him. I especially like the orange box review Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 18, 2007 I love this guy's videos. He did rate Portal quite highly, he mainly only reviews games he doesn't like by the looks of it though (watch the Jericho review) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2007 I agreed with what he said about Halo 3 As do I and the 10 character post limit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2007 I've been keeping a close eye on this for a few weeks. It was about time a topic was made for this tbh (I was too lazy to make one. ) I think that most of them are hilarious! Only one or two are slightly funny, but the majority are fantastic. The Bioshock and Orange Box reviews are by far the best ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
