Zero Punctuation: Deals with Brawl Hate Mail
BlindsideDork | 11:07 AM on 05.07.2008 29 comments




This time around our dear friend Yahtzee takes letters/emails out of his box and puts them in the limelight for all to see just how utterly iditotic people can be. Oh this is some good stuff...is this better than his reviews?

If you think no then "4k You!" Or I could be more biased cause he talks about your mom a lot.

I like the change of pace this week. I'm guessing he also needed more time for GTA.

Completely forgot about this. Quite possibly the funniest video he's ever done.

And I say that as a Nintendo fanboy, who is going to play and love Brawl as soon as my copy arrives regardless of what the fuck anyone else thinks.

Also nice to have reassurance that Gerstmanngate is STILL funny.

I LIKED IT. again this really wasn't about brawl, just his ability as any critic to criticize.. and I'll never understand the mega defending of brawl by fan boys. if you like the game GREAT. if you dont thats fine.

The great thing was that he wasn't that critical about Brawl; the things he did criticize are really valid. I actually don't really like Brawl that much, even though I played hundreds of hours in Melee.

there's one thing i don't like.

from now on his hate mail is going to be on purpose, in hopes to get on another stupid one of these videos.

I personally don't think he should have made this video.

I wonder how much he charges to proofread essays...

I could use a grammar Nazi this time of the semester.

I wish to know about the Fallowing Mails he recives

"Nintendo Made it so that the players could have fun mercilessly beating the ever-loving crap out of most hated characters, Like the Ice Climbers."

Now i ask, Who the fuck ever has the mentality of playing brawl...Just because "they" hated two characters of the Mes era and all they want to do is beat the shit out of that spesicfic one...

Is that what the letter meant cause i'm confused now lol

His theory of fanboy origin intrigues me. Better than the falling-into-vat of toxic waste theory.

I loved this! My only problem with the Brawl review was that it just wasn't very funny. His heart just wasn't in it. But without that review we wouldn't have this wonderful video.

This was better than quite a few of his reviews IMO, loved the gamespot reference.

Wow I think I laughed out loud more at this video than any of his others. The gamespot reference made my afternoon.

Probably my favorite video from him, i couldn't stop thinking about a lot of commenters on some of the dtoid reviews.

You know, I was really sick of Yahtzee for a long time and felt the schtick was quite tired. This video, on the other hand, actually made me laugh consistently throughout.

I think that was my favorite video ever by him.

I personally had fun with Brawl, and I didn't agree with his review. However, that would not give me, nor anyone else on the internet to send him hate mail; it just makes them seem like an immature twat of a fanboy. I'm just hoping Yahtzee stops giving in to these viewer requests- it doesn't seem to end well for the people who request it, anyway...

I love it. I try to never hate anyone under any circumstances, but fanboys really bring out the hate in me.

Heh. Anybody who sends hate mail to Yahtzee had better be willing to take the same treatment. I almost feel sorry for them. Almost.

I didn't agree with his opinions on SSBB either, but I wouldn't send him angry e-mails over it. The only thing I was genuinely pissed about was that he complained about a detail regarding unlocking characters that really wasn't true at all. But if he didn't like anything else in the game, pointing out something like that wasn't going to change his overall impression of Brawl.

I loved that, it was damn funny.

He is right though, a lot of people don't understand that one person hating your favorite game doesn't affect it in any way, I love a lot of games 90% of people hate, I don't give a shit, I enjoy the game just the same.

That was probably the hardest I've laughed at one of his videos yet.
