He likes ELEMENTS from those games. The only games he likes overall really are God of War, Sands of Time, and maybe even that one Spider-Man game. But again, thats just his online persona.

Man, if you have a list of games that you love everything about, good for you. The rest of the world (I'm fairly certain) has no problem admitting games they like have issues, which I suppose means they like elements of them. I love Shadow of the Colossus, Resident Evil 4, Final Fantasy IV, and a myriad of other games; not one would I say is flawless, all have elements I dislike (Shadow of the Colossus lacked anything other than boss fights and an empty world, Resident Evil 4 didn't scare me once and had annoying escort crap, and FFIV spoils the dramatic punch of party death along with pulling the Big Bad out of nowhere). I would still list them as favorites and recommend them to anyone with good taste in gaming. Also, he thinks Portal is better than Jesus, so I think that's good praise.

He reviews games to slam them for comedic purposes, I doubt you'll argue against that...

it's point is just to stir up the fanboys and humor the rest (I'm assuming, if FFXIII's review is like any other high-profile ones he's slammed).

Glad you agree though.

When I said pointless, i meant irrelevant. I love watching his videos, but if I took him seriously, I would pretty much be hating my whole catalogue of games.

Or you could take him seriously and think for yourself about whether your opinions match his. Works pretty well for me. I have little doubt that a lot of what Yahtzee says is his real feelings on games, sometimes exaggerated if he thinks his audience will enjoy it more. Hyperbole is often hilarious, but also grounded in some truth.

The game is awesome, so hes not spot on....

The game is mediocre, so he's spot on.

Oh man, see what I did there?
