This is the only review series I watch, not only for the review itself but also for the entertainment. It is self admittedly a more negative take on games, and Yahtzee likes to nitpick flaws. But it is much needed, and a lot of the flaws aren't even mentioned by traditional reviewers. Yahtzee is opiniated, and I don't agree with his every take. But I accept that, and he justifies his likes and dislikes with solid reasons. And all of this is done in his trademark, dry, witty monologue style. That is why I re-watch many of his reviews. I can't recommend Zero Punctuation enough, go and check it out!

Personally, one of my favourite games of all time. The gameplay is solid. Nothing groundbreaking, but is perfectly functional and for once we have useful AI teammates who have distinct skills and aren't just deadweights to carry around. But the real part where it blows other war shooters out of the water is its story and narrative. Not only is it intelligent and thought provoking, it ends with an amazing twist which is simultaneously out of nowhere, yet doesn't seem forced or out of place. A timeless classic which has stood the test of time, it sadly never got the credit it deserved at launch. But years later, its brilliance is still pretty much unmatched in a genre which has been saturated for long, and is waiting for another game like The Line to breathe new life into it.
