warning: mild profanity.

I thought the man was a freaking idiot.

Can't even get past the Darkness demo.

Pathetic. His head is too far up his own ass.

He's aussie.NECR0CHILD313

No he is british, just works for/did work for hyper in australia, now he works for those guys.

Nah, he's british living in Australia.

really bioshock? to me its a tie between gears halo warhawk just cause the type of gamer that i am. but with you it could be between halo bioshock and gears would you tie halo with one of those other games?

not flaming just curious as a gamer you all right have no beef with you.

It's a humor video. Chill out. The reviews aren't really meant to be taken seriously.

I know, his sense of humor just isn't up my alley.

Nowadays, anyone who can talk fast and/or curse is an automatic comedian. Hoo-rah :roll:

Eh I liked his Bishock one more. This one had a lot of ignorance in it, and I dont mean that as an insult Im just saying he makes comments that dont really match up with reality.justforlotr2004

Yeah. His BioShock and Tomb Raider Anniversary"Reviews" > His Halo 3 "Review"

Embarrasing

He tell what thehaters want to here. When he previewed the Heavenly sword demo he went on what lemmings say of how much it was a pointlessbutton masher. With Bioshock he went what hermits say about Bioshock is a downgraded system shock 2 for the "console-tards" and now again, siding with hermits saying Halo is only a okay game that is doing nothing new. But I really find it funny how Lemmings pick on the Killzone demo for having bad A.I. "You do know A.I. Is very important in a shooting game right? Sony fails again!" And then Halo 3 shows up with A.I. You can't even count on them to drive. :lol:

Actually, he states that he is a serious reviewer, and adds the humour in for comdeic effect. check his website. Note that he said that most people don't care about multiplayer. this is true. when you take away multiplayer, the game really isn't all that amazing.

I think Zero Punctuation is generally great, but my opinion of him did go down a bit after I saw his review of The Darkness demo. That was some pretty embarrassing stuff. I thought he might've been kidding at first about the difficulties he had in doing the insanely simplistic and obvious stuff they want you to do at the start of the game, but he wasn't.

It's no surprise that The Escapist doesn't have that review listed on its site, you have to find it on his website. Then again, that was I think his first or one of his first reviews, but still. If you're gonna review games, at least convey that you're somewhat good at them.

The enemy A.I in Halo 3 really is spectacular, but its true that the ally A.I is very lacking, my guess is with four play coop being the way most people play the game, Bungie chose to put alot less resources in ally A.I.

I dunno. On the one hand, the video is great. Very funny.

On the other, it's a pretty sweet game. No matter how clever a way he can point out the faults, there just aren't that many. It's fun, and that's it. I really don't care if this has been done before, or if that looked better, all I care about is getting some utility out of my 60 bucks...and halo 3 did that pretty darn well.

He's also neglecting 2 big things. First, the multiplayer. I mean, really, you can't just write off halo multiplayer by saying you don't care about it. Ok great, I don't care about you, comment not helpful. Second, he didn't give a crap about the story. In a trilogy, much of the 3rd installment's worth is in the story. Whether or not it's a better game than the first or the second, there's some value in the end of a well-told story.
