He's stumped - he can't find anything bad to say about it

Funny Mass Effect review, if not the most insightful. 'If you like kotor or rpgs you'll like Mass Effect' - quel surprise!

Then he'll give it a good review like orange box if you're right warbie but if i'm right he'll do another zelda PH review

 

[Warbie]

Not quite the same though, PH and Galaxy. tbh, I could criticise Galaxy if pushed - it's too easy, disgustingly cute, the swimming can be a little bit awkward and i'd like more control over the camera - but on the whole it's the most polished, well designed, imaginative and enjoyable piece of software i've played since OoT. I dare him to give it a bad review.

 

[Asknoone]

He doesn't pick what he reviews.

We'll see.

[Sedako]

I'm surprised he didn't rat out the "hacking" mini-game or elevator loading scenes.

 

[Asuka]

Thats the 1st review he made were i kind of dont agree. Still funny as shit tho. I dont like RPG's at all and loved Mass Effect. But then again i LOVE dialog still craving a substitute for Deus Ex.

 

[Narvi]

Hmmm, not as funny as previous reviews actually. I don't think he had enough time to enjoy the game at a leisurely pace.

 

[jimbo118]

i thought it was hilarious, much better than last week.

 

[Deleted member 56031]

Yeah I didn't like last weeks too much

 

[Seppo]

too much talking

 

[Deleted member 56031]

Isn't that zero punctuation is supposed to be?

 

[Iced_Eagle]

too much talking

Are you joking?

"Mass Erect"

 

[Seppo]

yeah I tried to be humorous but failed

 

[Cormeh]

Still excellent - although possibly my least favourite because a week is hardly enough time to get through everything in Mass Effect.

HOWEVER, he nails everything Mass Effect does poorly in what was clearly a main story run only. Which kind of solidifies the points I've made about the game in the past.

Ah well, I enjoyed the review very much. Mass "Erect".. kekekeke

I just don't understand why he's bitching about the amount of dialogs. From the Bioshock review I got the idea, that he liked Deus Ex (correct me if I'm wrong). Last time I remember Deus Ex had a shit load of dialog.

But still I love his reviews, every time he tells whats shitty and whats not, mostly whats shitty, but thats ok. This is how I like my reviews, I don't want to know how the game plays, or how awzomgz the graphics are (screenshots anyone), I just want to know what sucks and what doesn't. This is who games should be rated, who needs scores anyways :/

Hm, people don't seem to understand where Yahtzee is coming from.

Just because he bashes a game does not mean he doesn't like it! He's just pointing out the weaknesses in the game, and does so in a humorous manner. People like it when he talks about the shitty stuff, and don't care when it's about the good really, which is why 90% of his "reviews" are bashing the game.

So he can bash Deus Ex for having lots of dialogue or whatever, it's a valid criticism. Just because there's something that annoys you doesn't mean he didn't like the game.

 

[Pesmerga]

I love his allusion to Ctrl Alt Del when talking about copious dialogue.

Well put.

 

[Warbie]

Deus Ex had hardly any dialogue compared to your average rpg. Comparing apples to oranges.

 

[Kyorisu]

So true it's a hilarious comparison. The amount of crap Tim can fit into four panels without a single funny moment is rather sad.

 

[Bad^Hat]

Lol'd heartily. Personally I enjoyed Mass Effect right up until my inventory exploded. I'd really like to get back to the game, but I dread loading it up as every time I do I have to go through the tedious process of selling or reducing roughly 80 objects to make room for the next mission. They could have made this a bit ****ing easier - and equipping your squad isn't much better. Lose that and about half of the dialogue and it'd be a gay old time in universeville.
