Zero Punctuation: Valkyria Chronicles

He really doesn't want to admit he likes this game. Also hate when he says things which aren't true. A quick look at the upgrade menu shows there are branched upgrades later on.

Also his description of Oscar is hilarious.

I generally find his reviews fairly accurate the bionic commando one is bang on.

It's not like Yahtzee's reviews ever meant anything. He openly admits that he's more or less a professional troll.

What he generally does is find a couple of flaws and focus on that. A lot of the games i've played that he's reviewed its very understandable to see his view point. Its rare from what i've seen that he actually makes stuff up.

That's true but he does tend to 'forget' that most games have good points as well as bad.
If you're looking for someone to point out flaws then by all means take his videos at face value but if you want a genuine weighing up of pros and cons I suggest going to Metacritic and reading a few of the reviews there.

Thats pretty much how i use him. I hate buying a game and there being a game breaking flaw.

Generally speaking i know what i'm looking for in a game, besides in my experience a lot of games i like have bad ratings i.e. prototype, yakuza series, DW series, conflict series, army of two 40th day

I just watch ZP for the humour.

Do they really ask you if you're sure you want to watch every cutscene when they appear?
