What can I say about Yahtzee......I really enjoyed his humorous reviews at first, but ever since his horrible Drakes Review it seems like all he really does is simply find a way to bash any game he reviews no matter the quality or great experience of the game.......I would say you are losing your touch Mr.Yahtzee..

his reviews are funny but i dont take them seriously, all he does is find whats wrong with a game and makes fun of it no matter how small, aside from 1 or 2 games.

also when i read he was a developer, you would think he made good games himself which is far from the truth.

i think the reason he talks like that isn't that he is hating on games he is hating on the system that makes the games because of how they usually dont do anything too original which is why he praises psychonauts

raptor3026631d ago

I agree that you shouldn't take hes reviews too seriously but most of the time he tell's the truth, and I disagree with you saying that he didn't make any good game... you should try this one http://www.fullyramblomatic... (and all the sequels) the graphics aren't good but the game is rly fun and has a deep storyline

If anyone dont think so im feeling kinda sorry for you, take it for what it is...

Bazookajoe_836630d ago

Then i dont feel that way i suppose =/

v1c1ous6631d ago

so he was funny before he dissed your favorite game?

Joey Gladstone6631d ago

my intention was not to say "Just because he didn't like that game I dont like him" I am speaking on behalf of several of his reviews that just seem to me like he sees only the negative in them, and can go on tantrums about these negative points......but when it comes to the positive aspects he either blatantly ignores them, or only briefly mentions it.....

He is funny as hell in my opinion but he is a PC fanboy. The only games he seems to offer any praise to are pc games and psychonaughts.

How Burnout Paradise bucked the trend and made open-world racing irresistible

Met with derision from existing Burnout-series fans at the time, Burnout Paradise remains arguably the greatest open-world racing game of all time. Here's why.

SullysCigar1096d ago

I don't know why - and I know I'm probably on my own here - but I liked Takedown more. I think it was just 'different' enough to feel fresh. I also loved the destruction.

On that note, a new Motorstorm would be nice! All that mud, dust and car pieces flying everywhere blew my mind on PS3 - imagine what they could do now.

NJShadow1095d ago

I loved Burnout Paradise, but Burnout 3: Takedown will always be the best game in the series, for me. Burnout 3 is arguably the most fun game ever made, with the greatest licensed soundtrack ever.

EazyC1096d ago

I played through the remaster quite recently. It's not as good as I remember, but I think a lot of that is because the "open world" thing was still pretty fresh back then.

I do think there's a gap in the market for a game like Burnout. With the new gen they could really make car damage a huge selling point again.

BrainSyphoned1096d ago

Paradise gave me open world burnout before I knew it was a thing.

CPTN MITCHELL1096d ago

Burnout paradise remastered and original are my favorite, i got the platinum trophy for both games the nighthawk is my favorite car

Einhander19711095d ago

Personally don't give a shit for open world racers. Give me a new Motorstorm, Split second, Outrun.

I think the crash mode should comeback. Tryng to make the most damage was very cool.

camel_toad1745d ago

That mode was so damn fun. Couldn't believe it when they ditched it.

Flewid6381745d ago (Edited 1745d ago )

Agreed.

Flewid6381745d ago (Edited 1745d ago )

Yeah that made for a good time.

Rebel_Scum1745d ago

Burnout 2 should be above 3 imo. The aftertouch takedown mechanic slowed down the gameplay too much in 3.

Flewid6381745d ago

That's the mechanic that made me enjoy Burnout 3 over the others. It wasn't until they introduced it that I considered the series any good.

Chocoburger1745d ago

I love Takedown, Revenge, and Paradise. Dominator was okay, but it clearly felt like a B-tier game.

After playing those awesome games, I went back to try out part 1 and it was rough. I didn't like the controls (whereas the others felt perfect to me), the elevator music was generic and not enjoyable to listen to.

Finally the game's difficulty was extremely high. I could beat all single player races in Takedown, Revenge, Paradise, Dominator, but could not get first place in the very first race for the first Burnout game. It demands perfection and one slight mistake is all it takes to lose. I have yet to play part 2, but I'm hoping it's more like part 3 than part 1.

ChasterMies1745d ago

Burnout Takedown is my favorite racing game of all time. My wife was addicted to crash mode.

Xenial1744d ago

As soon as I saw Burnout 3: Takedown at #1, I knew the list was legit. lol
