Zero Punctuation Reviews Manhunt

“Pure genius” is usually the phrase that comes to mind after seeing any new video from The Escapist’s resident game reviewer, “Yahtzee” Croshaw. In this week’s Zero Punctuation video, he sits down and, in his usual fast-talking-Brit-with-a-stick-up-his-arse style, reviews the first Manhunt game. Besides opening the video with the song “Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows” (arguably one of the best songs on the subject), it’s just generally a short, sweet, and hilarious skewering of the controversial title. If you haven’t already, be sure to also check out some of his past reviews as they are all equally hilarious.

I love the description of Grand Theft Auto as a ‘whirligig of irresponsibility’ lol
‘The Australian government has this habit of trying pathetically hard to jump onto bandwagon issues that roll in from real country’s’
Brilliant
This guys stuff is pure gold.
Ah, another weekly dose of brilliance. What’s to bet in 2 weeks time, it’s Halo?
Looking forward to what he’ll do to Halo. If it’s good for the goose, it’s good for the gander.
In case you guys didn’t know, Yahtzee has produced a series of four gory violent adventure games called “The Defoe series”; 5 Days a Stranger, 7 Days a Skeptic, Trilby’s Notes, and 6 Days a Sacrifice.
Just thought that was some information that might be relevant. 7 Days was extremely gory, btw, including one scene of the results of a psycho trying to cut up four dead people and sew them back together to make a whole body again.
Also, Manhunt’s gameplay was lame as hell, and boring.
