More Yahtzee

Saturday, December 20th, 2008

So remember when I got you hooked on Zero Punctuation? 
Well Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw and a few other Aussie gaming nerds/journalists have created a new television show that they're shopping the pilot around for.  You can view it at...

It's not perfect but you can see the potential.  And anyone who's followed the Duke Nukem Forever fiasco over the last... oh... decade is going to laugh their asses off during the course of it.
So get the word out and hopefully someone like G4 will pick it up.

 

Well good for Ben if they do.  Although that channel has gotten so bad that I actually canceled it. 

Cracked presents top scientific frauds

Man, what an awesome time-wasting website Cracked is.  Anyway, a really interesting list, but how did Piltdown Man NOT make #1?  It was probably the biggest embarrassment in anthropology history, whether or not anyone went to jail over it. 

Honorable mention on my best links of the week list:  Zero Punctuation's review of STALKER:  Clear Sky, not only because Yahtzee is his usual funny self, but because I ALMOST fell for the bit at the end and then laughed my ass off when I realized what was going on.

Zero Punctuation!

Charlie posted a link to a review of Lego Indiana Jones from this guy, and I've been blasting through most of his archive tonight and laughing my ass off because he's tremendously entertaining.  So I just wanted to plug his archive and encourage any fans of fast-talking snooty-sounding British video game reviews to check it out immediately because it's worth the 4 minutes or so you'll spend listening to him spout venom without ever taking a breath.
