This week's Zero Punctuation is up right here.

Favorite gags: "Im a riter", WWAD poster, homoerotic wanking action. All in all, a fine review.

Would having Valve wank off in my face get me a look at Episode 3?

I loved the Captain Planet reference, since I used to be a big fan of the show when I was a kid.


Hm, also does the ending mean we're getting Call of Duty 4 next week?

And the film should be shot in sepia, because real life was in sepia in the 1990s.

Me too I can’t be bothered with a review for a game I've already bought because Yahtzee will no doubt make me feel like a twat for buying it.

This review was great though "a hooker, a mullet, a nine year old boy, a brick shit house and Carlos".

So this baby, while still inside its mother, murdered his twin brother and STOLE HIS PENIS.

That is one badass baby.

I really like this one, particularly the censored screen with the catamites rectum.

The choice of opening song surprised me somewhat however. Yes I get that it is called Shoot Shoot and the game is a rail shooter, but Dio is not that well known outside of heavy metal fans, and I've never really thought of Yahtzee to be a heavy metal fan. Of course it's entirely possible he came across it while searching for fitting song titles.

I noticed that too. I recognized Dio only because "Holy Diver" is in Guitar Hero Encore Rocks the '80's". I don't actually own the game but I've heard the soundtrack for it and "Holy Diver" one of my favorites form the game. Coincidentally, it's followed by "Turning Japanese", which Yahtzee used as the closing song for his "Heavenly Sword and Other Stuff" review.

Oh ok, I didn't know Dio was featured in a Guitar Hero game, well there you go.

At the end he said he was going to review Call of Duty 4, and why I have nothing against it and thought the game was a well done FPS, I don't think he should.

Yahtzee said he would never review CoD4 since everyone wants him to but now it seems like he is going to do it, this is not the Yahtzee I know. If Yahtzee gives in like this, then people will start to think if they jump up and down screaming and hooting long enough, then Yahtzee will give into all of their demands. Not saying this could happen, but I think this would ruin you street cred somewhat.

So no Mr.Yahtzee, dont review Call of Doody 4 just cause everyone wants you to(unless ofcourse the Escapist wants you to, then by no means should you bite the hand that feeds you)

On another note I REALLY liked the Painkiller short you did.

Hasn't yahtzee in the past informed us that that his interest in multiplayer portions of the video games he reviews is irrelevant? All of his reviews have been based on the single player, and not saying that the single player for COD4 is nothing short than epic, I do believe that the multiplayer surpasses the single player as far as game play and overall godliness.

Also, it matters what platform Yahtzee plays COD4 on. If he plays the PC version, the review will be full of hatred from the online portion merely because 90% of the kids online a either hacking, changing the values ingame inorder to get higher levels, or just putting level 55 account into their folder for insta-win.

Either way his review of COD4 will be short and will not be in the favor for the kats who play it all day

Yeah...it'd be a bad move to give in to the whiny twatblankets.

Though...what is a twatblanket? I gathered it's an insult, but it sounds like something heterosexual males should be envious of.

Funny that.

Yahtzee says "send me an email" and then gets annoyed when lots of people do.
