And I actually thought that the DVD bit was a great idea. Maybe they knew from an early time that they had way too much in the game to be able to polish it all up properly and still get it out this year that they added the function to allow you to skip anything you weren't enjoying.
Additionally I thought the bit where you set fire to all of those evil tree cock things was the best part of the game.

The last sequence however reminded me of another critic. That Guy With the Glasses. They look a bit similar. The difference between em is that one doesn't go on camera much while the other one is filming all the time.
And one more thing. Does sexual frustration really makes you suck big sweaty & salty balls?

Whether it grows or not isn't the point. It's not that it's bad. It's that the song choice jokes were funny, and this title animation is not.
I miss the funny song choices.

I would even go a step further and say that the Intro music is actually quite good.
But, yes, having various songs at the beginning and the end was funny and better.
And orginal, I think it was orginal. Does anyone know of some show that did something like that?

I was probably gonna buy Alone in the Dark, but now it just wouldn't seem right. It sounds so bad in Yahtzee's words, but it could still be good, like Bioshock was despite Yahtzee reviewing it.
Anyone know if Alone in the Dark is good?

Well I like it and if you can overlook it's numerous physics glitches then I feel it's a very enjoyable game.
But then again I'm from QA and after spending 12 hours a day playing games that don't work you become somewhat more forgiving about glitches.
Also I'd recommend putting the link to your website into your signature so that is shows up automatically and doesn't look like you're advertising at us.

Yahtzee said various good things about Bioshock among the nitpicking.
"It's probably one of the best games of the year."
"...it's not bad, it's just shallower than was advertised."
"Playing this game makes me look back on my time with [Bioshock] all the more fondly."

And the fact the main character can fire bees from his hands, he loved that.

Thanks, I think I'm gonna buy AITD sometime soon.
Also, I took your advice about the whole link thing.
