  • Mass Effect does rule though.

  • BEAUTIFUL!

  • What is most hilarious about this is the juxtaposition between bitching that games are supposed to be about gameplay, using new ideas and mechanics to overcome obstacles, and then saying "Meh" about Portal of all things.

  • OMG TF2 flowers!!!

  • @DutchDeathZone Ummm......... what?

  • I've never thought I'd say this but I prefer the asshole with the legitimate British accent.

  • i dont know if you did this video for commedy purposes but this video and a lot of what you say in it is wrong, on a few points you have something but overall i dont think you understand what makes a game fun or what a gamer is, also perhaps you could come up with something that has a bit more originality, atleast use different animations, or at least a different colour background or font and not copy someone else's idea completely :)

  • What an odd video. It's as if, "Fun" has only one definition. If this guy were to decide on how games should be made, the gaming industry would collapse within a year from lack of buyers.

  • so, you made a video "inspired" by Yahtzee, and the subject of the video was the exact opposite of what Yahtzee actually expects from games?

  • "Video games by someone that hates video games and only plays CoD."

  • Man. You are an insufferable cunt.

  • what an unpleasable TWAT you are! Portal is all you ask for then you bash on it.. retard

  • Great, so you make an argument that basically says that games should have no story and focus entirely on gameplay, then call everyone who doesn't agree with you nothing but a casual gamer.

    Oh my fucking god.

  • Hahahaha, awesome vid.

  • This is actually kind of funny... I don't agree with him totally, I just said it was funny.

  • Try Darksouls

  • I was willing to give this a try. But then you turned out to be an idiotic dick whose holding back gaming.

  • Has anybody responding to this video even watched Pure Pwnage before? Because if you haven't this video will make no sense to you which is why people are saying dumb things.

  • @ItzKozy I was about to post the same thing. How can so few people have seen Pure Pwnage?

  • You hate games with stories so much that you'll even go as far as to say that Mass Effect is terrible? Mass Effect has an amazing story, great graphics, and amazing gameplay. But you call it bad just because it has a story and you're too ADHD to get through the dialogue? Games don't have to have a story to be fun, this is proven. But don't be a fucking TWAT and hate on games that do have a story because 99% of the time they have great gameplay too. You're cancer to the gaming community.

  • Comment removed

  • It seems that there are a lot of people here who haven't watched PurePwnage before.

  • I don't agree with everything, but there is one truth. If we have fun while playing a game with mass destruction(for example), who the fuck cares much more about history than to kick some asses? For example last year Warhammer: Space Marine game. It is really good game(either if reviews point lack of interesting ,,story" and same gameplay in the whole game ,,only murdering orcs", game is fun because of that ,,LACK"). However, who thought about point of running one direction in Mario 2D. No one!!

  • A good story and graphics are part of good experience, get with the times, if you don't want to, go play fkn donkey kong for the rest of your life.

  • Well this was just sad. Atleast that Some Punctuation review was charmingly awfull, this is just... no.

  • Did he just diss Portal. Cause you do not just diss Portal.

  • You want to be Ben Yahtzee so bad that you find something pointless to rant about

  • The real issue is that people seem to think having good gameplay and good story is one of those 'have your cake and eat it' concepts where you can't do one without sacrificing the other. Sure, good challenging gameplay is the point of a game and the main thing keeping the game fun, but does that mean I should have to deal with some backbirth twat with no attention span skipping through any and all plot and destroying the suspension of disbelief I enjoy when playing a game with a story?

    No.

  • ever since Final Fantasy 7 came out ppl bitch about a story

    i like stories in games but great games with great gameplay dont have good storys for example skyrim its story doesnt amuse me much i dont even listen to the fuckers talking to me its a great game just not much of a story

  • @Diegoazul007 It has a great story....If you spent the time to fucking listen.

  • @Rhiilynn probably but the story doesn't grab me like final fantasy or zelda do

  • I just can't help comparing him to Zero Punctuation. And he's never going to win.

  • So basically, if I want this media to grow we have to resort back to the Donkey Kong era of gaming? If I want a compelling story I want to be involved in I'm not a gamer? Wow, just wow!

  • typical COD player...

  • @TioDoMiojo Just because he owns at multiplayer and played one of the good COD's (4). You don't understand what he's saying. He's even hating on the COD series for just re-releasing pretty much the same game over and over again. What he is saying is that people being n00bs created these easy "game" hybrid's. If we see a game come out this year that is just as hard as UT1999/UT2003 i will cream myself and will be pleasently surpirsed. Oh and i'd have to change my boxers x)

  • if u replace this with Yahtzee's voice it could be genuine

  • I really enjoyed this. Whatever the intentions were.

  • How D fuck did i forget this series existed. O yeah now i remember they stopped showing it on G4 because it told the TRUTH!

  • I agree man, I'm so sick of all those dick holes complaining about EVERYTHING that isn't perfect for them. I beat the legend of fucking zelda before i COULD READ. I'd LOVE to see those noobs do that, being able to read! I do disagree about the RPG thing, personally I like having a decent story. being a writer I know how HARD it is to write so i go easy on them. noobs are why I never play online anymore, sick of hearing some 12 year old kid talk shit then cry and bitch when i pwn his whiny ass.

  • I actually rather liked this despite it being fucking retarded.

    Good nonetheless.

  • Obviously you should compare it to Zero Punctuation.

    However, on it's own merits, it's a good video

  • fag video

  • 735 noobs watched this

  • why are people hating on this? it was funny as hell lol quit raging because he instulted a game you liked. you're being the same person that he talks about in this video.

    you made some pretty good points so i believe all the fanboys should shut their mouths :3

  • @TheBlueFlex I agree, but too much story is like watching a poorly animated movie, and nobody likes that. Story greatly improves gameplay, but it's really a Normal bell curve, with 50% storyline interwoven into the 50% gameplay with 100% fluidity making the perfect game. Anything else lies in the shitty extremes

  • Dude, you had a really good point in the first half, but then you went overboard. Short, fun games are actually really fun. You should probably look into some objective research

  • @inb4bro1 you mad bro, you mad?

  • I had some genuine lols. Nice one.

  • Yatzee has the same opion. Good work!

  • Ahem,to whoever made this:

    Fuck off you fuckface assmunch shitwipe fucknugget dipshit ass,barbie doll molester,asswipe fuckbongger and shit.

  • oh pure pwnage. How I miss thee

  • looks like the internet of these days has forgotten purepwnage

  • Portal was short, but everything that was there needed to be there. If it was longer it would of been a bigger piss off than it being short. Portal was orhinally just a stocking stuffer to make up for the fact that Episode 2 was really short.

  • Pretty fucking brutal man. I enjoyed that.

  • Really? I mean really? Stories were put into games because people enjoyed them whilst playing a main character in one of them. If we didn't like stories, they wouldn't be so common in our lives. They add another level of entertainment above the simple fact of "go there and do that" present in games. I won't bash a game for not having a decent one, but said games shouldn't advertise themselves as "epic games" unless the gameplay or some other element is outstanding in it's own right.

  • Can't say I agree with what you've said...but you raise some good points.

    In the end, why can't we all just play what we like? There's a REASON that games come in many different genres. A story isn't a 'bad' thing in a game, its just a preference. One really shouldn't get mad because some people play games for the immersion, while others play for challenge. Just live and let live.

  • I love the STORY in the mass effect series.

  • Ha, this was actually very good.

  • I agree about gameplay. but I also see the potential of games to evolve into even bigger stories, present lots of important characters, get the player or even a lot of players at the same time involved into the storyline rather than just coordinated tactics ftw. I dont mean cranking up the difficulty I mean a real mind game that the game developers put in there to keep you entertained and at the same time give you a reason to care for what you do. I think we still are not there technology wise.

  • there would be a lot more likes if it was yatzee saying the EXACT SAME THING. I liked it because it was good

  • @koopa1248

    Yeah, except it wouldn't because Yahtzee has the required level of charisma to pull this off and not come across as a total cunt. This guy does not. Yahtzee's reviews are obviously tongue in cheek, he knows that his views aren't absolute and he acknowledges that he has shortcomings. All his videos are seeped in irony, this guy doesn't understand the meaning of the word.

    Incidentally he also seems to be struggling with the word parody as well.

  • seemed fine to me, a little work and you could run your own game reviewing site

  • wtf is with the kitchen intruder bandana

  • Wait.. you called yourself "Nazi"?

  • Guys we get it hes trying to parody zero punctuation but he could atleast parody some of the wit charm or good writing.

  • Actually... I think he has a damn good point, most everyone here i just pissed because he's copying Yahtzee. Lemme tell you something my art professor told me, "Good artists copy great works, great artists steal them."

  • Ya know, It's a good video, and it makes good points, but Zero Punctuation has nicely countered all of them. And in all honesty, I think the point that ZP makes is that most professional reviews (ones on the sites) are all sucking up for more pay. He on the other hand is a raging ball of hatred towards everything, and I can honestly respect that, because this world is shit. And I can't stop laughing when he rips my favorite game apart.

  • ... i just contradicted my self -_-

  • games that focus on story usually only last 1 play through for me. i normally only replay a campain if it was fun. multiplayer is ruined by retards. also some companies are just naturally better at story, for example: bioshock 2 had a compelling story and personally i enjoyed the gameplay, but then i felt the multiplayer was severly lacking. tis why fallout is not multiplayer.

  • True,true. Lukly i am not one of these fellows i hate cutscenes thats why i love bioshock 1and amnesia the dark decent.

  • if there's any talent in this video it's verbal masterbation, and if you like the smell of your own dick so much you might as well have made a 3 minute video of you stroking that clearly small fucking dick you have. the fact that you're calling everyone who doesn't have the same opinion a "noob" is clear indicator that you don't have a life to begin with I've never heard of anyone in the world being good at any sort of competitive gaming without wasting their life on it.

  • stories in games make games better, it makes them more immersive, oh I'm sorry, does it make me a pussy for wanting a medium to evolve? if you want nothing but game play go and play fucking atari, sometimes people like context for the stuff they do in games, giving them characters they like and getting to control them makes them feel like they're in control of the story thus making it more satisfying when they beat a boss or kill a legion of badies.

  • did you actually think this was some sort of philosophical brilliance? saying that you need "talent" at games is like saying Michelangelo painted the sistine chapel the first time he picked up a mother fucking paint brush. just because portal was short doesn't mean it isn't good game design, it had better design than all the COD games combined. this is nothing but pride talking you pretentious twat.

  • IF YOU PEOPLE HAVEN'T WATCHED PURE PWNAGE, GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE

  • Demon Souls or Dark Souls.

    Have fun~

  • so many haters

  • Why are people crying? Its very true and very funny. Is the majority of youtube 12 year olds or what?

  • I was enjoyong this video, until he blew my mind around the 3:00 mark with the amazing ability to somehow brag about the supposed epic magnitude of his skill dick even as it filled his mouth in that self administered blowjob of a rant he had at the end

  • you're living in a past asshole

    whiny little bitch... herp derp i don't like today gaming hurr durr mario is teh best, mario ftw!

    i agree that 1.5h cutscenes are bullshit, along with all that japanese anime manga shit everybody seems to love

    still, people like you are the reason that we have repetitive gameplay and 20yearold game mechanics, people like you flooding the internet saying:

    -herp, zelda 1 was the best rpg, i miss my old nes, starfox yey!

    you make sick. get a life asshole!

  • Comment removed

  • 99% of the gaming population are noobs. I AM THE 1%

  • I see I'm in the minority here, but I liked this video.

  • Try again fella. This failed.

  • i hate him but i kind of feel bad for him wait no i dont

  • lol this guys a fucking piece of shit copying yazhtee your lame boring and a fucking downer to be truthly so yeah go rot in a hole you fucking copyer :)

  • How cute he thinks he's Jeremy. 

  • Meh.

    You were trying way to hard, did you pop a vein in your eye from trying so hard?

  • this sucks !

  • I always love a good story. Don't want a good story? how about playing COD multiplayer, that seems about your brain level kid.

  • When you watch a movie you don't get to participate in the plot formation and consequences, in video games you can - that's the big difference your all high and mighty "real gamer superiority" missed.I completely agree that fun and challenging gameplay is the most important element, but some of us also like to have an immersive experience along with it, and if you think that makes you better than us, you are more than welcome to eat shit and die, wanker.

  • i personally thought this was a pretty good parody of zero punctuation was pretty funny and what not

  • I like single player and multiplayer games. I enjoy story driven games like Mass Effect and multiplayer games like Halo and Gears. I like to have verity in what I play and not just stick to one or the other. Also Portal is a really fun game with great gameplay mechanics.

  • who made this?

  • use a fucking authentic idea!! you use the exact same style and video so adapt or gtfo :)

  • @samaslama55 its called a parody -_-

  • @afoninja121 SATIRE IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY AND RELEVANT TO THE TOPIC....

    this wasn't either.

  • @Lostprophetzzz of course noone can be perfect it wasnt completely relevant at somepoints but i did find it pretty funny for the most part if you think you can do better than go ahead

  • So was that meant to be an Ozzy accent throughout the review?

  • This is tongue in cheek right?? RIGHT???!

  • Fucking horrible video. I'd be fucking embarassed if I tried to copy Yahtzee, especially if it resulted in something this bad.

  • as an avid Zeto Punctuation fan, I should hate this.I mean,I still hate it, but I still got a few genuine laughs out of it. Now, back to average YouTuber. Ahem.. GO KIL URSEFL U STOOPDI EMU NOKOF SHITNUGGET PENISHAT INSULT INSULT INSULT SEX JOKE INVOLVING YOUR MOM

  • i play mass effect and i think it is fun... is that wrong? if you want to keep playing metal slug1 or whatever you played back in the early 90's please do and let the rest of us who wanted to move onto something more interesting.

  • @ARomanianKid14

    Mass Effect is mediocre, Mass Effect 2 is somewhat below mediocre. Why do you have shit taste? Play good games instead of Mass Effect.

  • @justaguy600 Yeah, why does he like what you don't like? He should get off the internet and play some real games like a real gamer like you would play!

  • @wdililn

    Agreed.

  • wrong wrong and el wrong i can pwn anyone in any game instantly tell me can you beat halo reach on legendery with all the skulls on and last two ours on the lone wolf mission no well shutup then

  • i know i should hate this because im a fan of the original... but fuck you, you judging arrogant assholes... i liked it... try to make better!

  • He is right :S

  • this video gave me every disease known to man

  • it wasnt even half as good as the original -.- stop with this, now

  • I thought this was funny the first time I saw it. Since then, I discovered Yahtzee's reviews and found this to be but a poor copy...

  • Ah, cheap vessels to stroke your e-peen. Isn't the internet great?

    I stopped caring about anything he might have to say when claiming he wanted gameplay, and they shat on Portal, which was entirely about interesting gameplay in a style that hadn't been done before. Not to mention the assumption that everyone plays games for the exact same reason.

    Here's a tip, I have Golden God in Super Meat Boy, but I love games like Amnesia more, when the gameplay is redumentary. Why? ATMOSPHERE.

  • @OgreSamanosuke

    By Valve's own admission, Portal was a safety net in case you didn't like anything else in the orange box, and nobody expected it to become so popular. I agree that Portal and Portal 2 are both excellent games, but the first one was far from a "style that hadn't been done before." It has many platforming and physics based puzzle elements - the only "new" mechanic (recycled from Narbacular Drop) was portals.

  • Comment removed

  • I bet I have tea bagged you on a game before...

  • You disliked portal. I disliked you. I like most of your statements, but your conclusion should be fed to the wild dogs. Playing a Videogame is about all the arts of desing, storytelling, atmosphere, challenge and revard. Also it's about expectation and revard. Sadly most of the people have gotten used to being promised a gold producing racing horse and getting a cardboard cutout of a fucking donkey.

    And that's exactly what's wrong with the industry and advertisement.

  • This is why I don't have Xbox live gold. I've been accused of hacking just because I'm good at the game enough times to learn that 75% of people online are absolute dicks (Or 7 year olds)

  • U make ur own play style and reamber every games different

  • and this is why I avoid the brown FPSs in line for the lesser appealed, noncommercialized games...like Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Echoes of Time...

  • It's interesting how as much as it is mainstream to be a n00b it is popular to be an asshole. Yes, insult people. Go on. I'll get the entertainment in watching it like I do when I see a 3rd grader talking about how fast he can run. It sounds like a fleeting effort from a person with an inferiority complex to try and impress someone.

  • For fuck sake. It's quite annoying clicking on bullshit like this when you're trying to fill your heart and mind with rage over endless Yahtzee.

  • i like games with both

  • 3:32 This guy is wrong because of 2 words: Michael Jordan

  • I honestly cant tell if this guy is serious or not, because sadly, there ARE people who think this. The gaming industry wont progress by taking any one path. You can JUST focus on story, or JUST focus on gameplay, the best games have the best balance of all the aspects. easy example? Half life.

    You play a game where you are always in control, but also get a great story with it, some fun character interaction and you learn about black mesa as the lore.

  • @ReasonForNo I have another example to add: Metal Gear Solid :) <3 Ever tried it? Especially the 4th one.

  • @MsViollentia While I did enjoy the series, I have to say that MGS sadly focus too much on having a cinematic experience rather than a immersive one. the storys are great, I love it, but it lacks the player interaction other games have.

    Id say a game that shows a step in right direction is Psychonauts, Raz was written really well, where dispite the style, he sounds and acts more human than some Photorealistic characters Ive seen. the game is also a solid blend of all aspects of game design.

  • this is original escapist and was posted before yahtzee so dont rage or troll on this video here is the original Nahtzee - The n00b effect

  • @chaosfangleone are you dumb? or just trolling? this was done by the guys from pure pwnage, as a parody to yahtzees videos.

  • sorry but an american voice isnt right for this shit. you need a brits voice to make it worth the watch

  • Comment removed

  • this is fuckin lame, his voice is fuckin annoying...

  • Comment removed

  • ROFL! the comments are f-ing gold. People... This is a parody of Yahtzee's show (obviously). It's made by the people behind Pure Pwnage. a web series about owning noobs. It even went as far as a television series, but didnt get more then an 8 episode season due to lack or views. A shame really, as most of PP crew seems to have moved on. To all you downvoters of this vid: JOKE'S ON YOU!

  • How come no one realizes that this is made by the Pure Pwnage team?

  • this guy is a fucking idiot who thinks people give a damn about what he thinks but NO ONE DOES!!

  • the thing about zero punctuation is that he pulls off unbridled arrogance with a natural charisma.

    he makes valid points and then makes his personal grievances into humourous anecdotes.

    he doesn't however make HIMSELF and how he wishes everyone were more like HIMSELF to be the focus of his videos.

    and also he doesn't sound like an asthmatic version of matthew broderick.

    this is plagiaristic crap. and even when copying your betters you aren't funny.

    STOP TRYING.

  • @Lostprophetzzz read the fucking description! its not hes.

  • @Lostprophetzzz its called a parody he wasnt trying to be yahtzee or however its spelled he was just trying to make a parody of what he does and i thought it was pretty good of course noone can completely immitate yahtzee because as he says hes a charismatic stalion point is relax -_-

  • @Lostprophetzzz As far as plagiarism goes, pause at 3:47 or somewhere close and read. Secondly, a parody is a parody. Apparently the maker of this video had some views about Yahtzee and the way he treated things that he saw fit in sharing with people in that way.

    Personally I'll have to agree that there is so much grieving over so many aspects of games that the games themselves are treated more as a movie and people just like to criticize it instead of playing it for having fun.

  • @Lostprophetzzz you completely don't understand the point of this video. either go watch Pure Pwnage or shut the fuck up you crybaby little fucksack

  • @Lostprophetzzz i feel he nailed it in a way to were we can take him seriously unlike were yahtzee is a full-on critic to the bone, and i find it hard to take him seriously sometimes.

  • By the way, being an astronaut is a fucking SKILL, not a talent. flipping switches, pressing buttons, strapping yourself into a giant tank to take a shit, and going to sleep is not something you just have to be "born" for. You don't have to be naturally good at floating around in space, for fuck sake. No parent is looking at their kid thinking: "Yep! That kid sure can flip those switches! He's gonna be a fine astronaut one day!"

  • For a guy who uses the word "ghey", he sure talks a lot about other men's penises. o_O

  • the one thing this guy does that yahtzee dosnt is, STAY ON FUCKING TRACK! sure, things when from complaining about "games" to complaining about "the people who play games" and allthough a agree with the former, each person has their look on how to play games, besides.. you dont like certain "clubs" of gamers JUST DONT SOCIALIZING WITH THEM!

  • a "game" is the most important part of a game, i agree... but a good story is the hot fudge on a ice cream cone

  • everyone who disliked this video or gave a negative comment is a fucking casual. go back to playing modern warfare 2 and leave the rest to us.

  • u gay faker

  • whats funny though is that practice actually does make you better, if that was'nt true then how do you see bad singers become "good" or like Nestea in starcraft, he was a baddy once now look at him

  • This was okay, I guess.

  • Aboot XD

  • This is the 'gheyest' video I've seen. How about letting Yahtzee do this seeing is this is practically one of his videos, and save us all from listening to your horrible accent.

  • This is pathetic and stupid. I really don't understand why morons think that they can go online and tell the rest of us what makes a game worth playing. Also, being a cynical douche bag doesn't lend you any credibility, and pro gamers ARE pro simply due to the hours of practice they put into games (there's nothing wrong with that either). The only thing this video got right is that Sum 41 sucks.

  • 511 Noobs watched this :P

  • Backwards P90 at 1:34.

    :D

  • maybe watch it as part of the episode

  • This guy is so right it's unreal.

    PS, Dark Souls ftw

  • YOU ARE NOT YATZEE

  • so he is having a go at people who are critics of games, but doesnt that make him a critic of critics of games? - ultimate fail.

  • Disliked for quite possibly the worst American attempt at an English "accent" since Dick Van Dyke's terrible invented cockney in Mary Poppins.

  • I agreed right up until he slagged off portal.

    also: "you uncoordinated ball of ghey" xD

  • how many people on this dont realise its from pure pwnage in the theme of yatzee, if it anoys you your clearly the type of 'noob' hes talking about

  • What exactly qualifies someone as a "gamer"? Is it someone who plays video games for the fun of it? Is it someone who is good at video games? Is it a video game expert?

  • @DemigodsRule1999 eh, it can be anything I consider myself a gamer because I enjoy games a bit more then most, I know how games work I know what goes in to making them, i'm also an average player (i.e I can get pretty far on dark souls without screaming at the screen) this guy in this video is what we in the normal gamer community take the piss out of a "hardcore" gamer someone who thinks games should only be about skill and yet bad mouths CoD 4 (ze only good CoD) and portal, 2 very good games

  • @fishfishfish912 agreed

  • u mad?

  • I like Sum 41...

  • lol @ the basketballer gl hf haha

  • half right, half annoying fuck wit

  • Hahah, So many newfags commenting here who haven't seen Pure Pwnage to get the point.
