I never have stolen so many care packages in a game before. :P

Nice, but that wasn't a very good AC-130 call, were you trying?

Anyways, I got my 3rd Tactical Nuke today on HC Ricochet HQ Pro, was pretty epic. At 67, going to wait for final Nuke challenge before I prestige though.

Hey dude what did you use to record that?

[EpicPhailure]

Yeah, both video and sound quality are great.

[ARTgames]

At least the video quality impressed you all. >_<

I used the newest version of fraps. http://www.fraps.com/
I was recoring at 40FPS.

I also used "AVS Video Converter 6" with the encoding settings:

video:
codec: H.264
rez: 1280x720
Frame rate: original
bitrate: 16k

audio:
mp3
44100hz
192kbs

everything else was on default.

Edit:
@Aqua
That was the first time i ever got a AC-130. So i was 100% noob and sucked.

Unfortunately, Yahtzee's review doesn't cover the online multiplayer, which is what most people care about.

I can write you a multiplayer review right now:

Yeah, Yahtzee's reviews are fun and brutally honest, but it's hard to take them at more than face value. He plays games for their campaign alone, which leaves out some very important factors in a games score.

Not really. Its exaggerated and over simplified as hell. But its a satire and a funny one too.

What part do you disagree with?

[ARTgames]

First off I'm disagreeing with you on the point that "leaves out some very important factors in a games score". He states in his video that he did not play online so i think its fair to take what he said about everting else.

Also are you saying there no exaggerated or over simplified in this video? Does he not make fun of the game once as satire? I would like for you to pull a quite that has non of those two things.

Ill leave the 2ed part out. I see its unclear.

Uhhhh.... Yeah!  Take that Jake!  uhhhh...

I enjoy Zero Punctuation's reviews for the hilarity of them, nothing more.  I don't rely on him for my decision making when it comes to games for a couple of reasons.  A) He fills what would be an entire game review written to take 45 minutes to listen to and crams them down to 4 minutes.  B) His reviews contain a lot of irrelevant humor, and is spoken at a rate that makes me laugh for a second or two, therefor missing half the review.  C) It's a matter of personal preference.  He makes this known with statements like "I won't play a game where I can't reach across and slap the other person" (referencing online play).  When people make statements like that, then their credibility ends right there, and he is only doing this for humor.  That's perfectly fine, I just won't be relying on him for an accurate review of a potential purchase of mine. Finally: D) He degrades every game I've watched him review.  Many of these, I actually find enjoyment playing.

Funny? Hell yeah!
Reliable? Not too much.

Take it at face value and let yourself determine the quality of the game, not an entertainer.

I agree. I'm glad that there also seems to be some one who says what i what to say but more clearly.

*post contains spoilers*
Now there something i do disagree with him on.(Zero Punctuation's not jake or scotty) On the part about the 3 nukes. First off its not a nuke its an EMP. Which is an important differences and explains why only the electronics stopped working (plot hole on how the hear the recording near the end of the mission that tells them to go to the spot and set flairs) and why the whole place is not blanketed with radiation. And when you think of it an EMP is a lot more "modern warfare" than a nuke. (which is why I'm guessing the have it in the game)

secondly they don't visit it three times. The first time you don't even know what happens the secant time explains what happen. So technically its fair to say the visited it two time's but i think that's fair because you don't even know the first time. Of course that last part is my opinion. And the "third time" is not a revisit but is actually counting on with the story from ware you left off. This "third time" is the part ware you get to explore the after math of the event that he claims happens 3 time. (good mission btw!)

I don't know about specs ops. And the first part and the part about the dieing seems ok to me.

Edit:
well it is a nuke being used as an emp. Scotty pointed that out and its right.
