lol I love this guy,

even if he pissed all over the games I loved I still couldn't be mad at him :)

No offense, but that is what makes you a sheep. I'm not trying to be mean, but it's true.

I love playing SSBB and I really couldn't care less what other people think. ^_^


That doesn't make Lafiel a sheep at all. I love SSBB too, but I thought his review of hit was quite funny. Especially the "That guy!" part, which was great because it was so true.



I dislike the mentality that someone can say whatever they like and people will still gobble it up. That is sheepish to me.

I don't think he said he gobbled it up, he said he tolerated hearing it since the reviews are so funny. It's different!

I liked his SSBB review as well as his other reviews. He has something negative for every game and even if I don't agree with some of the criticisms he points out, his videos are still pretty funny.

What, he apparently isn't not allowed to voice things he didn't like about a game because other people loved it?

he is funny controversial reviewer, that tends to be to harsh sometimes, but i like him.

Eh, to me it's like laughing at a comedian even as he calls you an idiot.  YMMV I guess.

 As opposed to the mentality of thinking its hilarious until it's aimed at something you like?

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

I know that it's been mentioned before, but the Gamespot comment was hysterical. I laughed.

I wouldn't know. I'm not commenting on the fact that he didn't like Brawl really. There's no point in arguing that someone else's opinion is somehow less important or valid than anyone else's.  

If that's the best response you can come up with stof, I'm disappointed. ^_~

I find it very interesting that the wii fanboys are the only ones that have gone retarded after watching one of his videos. Not only did they go retarded they went on to write the guy letters. But i guess after losing to the Playstation for two generations most of them have gone all crazy because the wii is doing pretty well.

 Gues you weren't here when Uncharted Drakes Fortune go reviewed.


I loved his Uncharted review.  I really enjoyed the game but it was so nice to see someone else pick up on the fact that from a PC (politically correct) point of view you killing a heck of a lot of ethnic pirates...



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

huh? You said that the guy is a sheep for liking the review because it bashes a game he likes. don't you think that's kind of silly? " Oh, I love how this guy rips games apart! he's always so bang on too... what? He's making fun of a game I like? That's not very funny now is it."

He, I and many others find Yahtzee's reviews to be quite funny. To find that the funny stops when your games are on the grill would be the more fanboy/sheep direction to take.

Anyone who takes his reviews seriously is.......well,too serious too much a fanboy

Even though it occasionally stings when he has a go at your favourite game the perfect antidote is just watching a review for one of the games you don't like.

Will be interesting to see what he has to say about GTA IV.

 fixed it for ya
