If this review doesn't demonstrate what a pretentious doofus Yahtzee is, I don't know what will.

And before you disagree, please note I'm not saying Silent Hill 2 is a bad game. So don't take it that way. I'm just saying that if the game is this many glaring issues, it's pretty tough to defend it as "BEST GAEM EVAR!!1" without sounding like a pretentious twat.

It's very hard to call someone pretentious without making someone sound pretentious.

I like his views on games they are quite funny... I prefer Unskippable because the guys on there have done MORE videos and are funnier.

On a side note he did say the game had flaws big ones but maybe he was emerssed in it, I don't care what people say about my favorite game, the same way I don't care about there's.

orion4566133d ago

Did he actually say it was the "BEST GAEM EVAR!!1"?

NO!!!

He said it was one of his personal favourite games and he still criticized it.

wiggles6133d ago

It's his job to expose flaws in games that is why he is a critic..he looks at everything that makes a game look terrible, Like I loved Dead Space, and is on my top 10....but all of the points he made were valid and funny, please there is no such thing as a perfect game, there are always flaws ZP just speaks the truth in a funny way...but we don't let those problems get in the way because of the things the game does right.

While he does insist that his reviews shouldn't be taken too seriously, there is a merit of truth behind his reviews. He looks past all the hype, lovers, features, graphics, and looks at a game for what it really is. He often points out mistakes that reviewers fail to notice or simply ignore.

LOL this is awesome! I'm keeping tabs on this site from now on.

Rockox6133d ago

You should check out all his older reviews, too. Most of them are pretty hilarious.

Rockox6133d ago (Edited 6133d ago )

Yahtzee has always talked about what high regard in which he holds this game. It's nice to see him actually review it and (surprisingly) bash it quite a bit. While I do agree that the combat isn't that great, Silent Hill 2 still remains one of my top 10 favourite games of all time.

Reibooi6133d ago

Silent Hill 2 is probably the greatest survival horror game ever made in my opinion(Resident Evil 4 was a bit to action like to be considered survival horror)

My personal favorite was Silent Hill 3 which is a game that holds up very well even now with all the next gen power.

Rockox6133d ago

SH3's ending, with all the vomiting, near-stepping, and subsequent eating of...something (don't wanna spoil it), still remains one of the grossest endings to a videogame I can remember.

Das Capitolin6133d ago

No matter what I think about the game, any Zero Punctuation review I watch is always good for a few laughs.

wiggles6133d ago

You have to! I loved half of the games on his list especially dead space...but everything he says about them is true but funny.

I think it would be impossible to NOT laugh at atleast one comment in a game he reviews...especially if you played it.

Great month for Halloween, glad that until dawn is the PS5 version, definitely having a few beers and some friends round for that

Profchaos232d ago

What a line up silent hill 2 is a great addition
Also don't sleep on like a dragon Yakuza such a good game

Dexterio232d ago

Now we're talking! Best month for me this whole year.

Puty232d ago

I am very happy for Tekken 3

Redgrave231d ago

It's not going to get trophies, is it 😕

It's a really solid addition, but I'd love a platinum for it. Same with Soul Calibur 3 if that's really next month.

Deeeeznuuuts231d ago

Yeah, it's a real shame that some publishers still don't add trophies, I mean, even Disney do and they even update games to add them

VersusDMC231d ago

Some PS2 classics have trophies so hopefully Soul Calibur 3 has it.

And ps1 classics not having trophies is dissapointing but at least they give you the new version for free if you bought the old ps1 classic.
