Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 999 Joined: 19 Feb 2009 | Excellent as always, and i agree, the wii does not deserve a game like that. |
Paperboy Posts: 41 Joined: 17 Oct 2008 | Haha, nice. I dislike the departure from funny slaughter of a game to serious reviewing you seem to have taken though. |
Beat Writer Posts: 199 Joined: 19 Mar 2009 | TOP 10 comment ftw! Madworld is awesomely awesome. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3817 Joined: 1 Mar 2009 | Awesome and hilarious as always, but I'm not sure whether he think's it's good or not. I think he's trying to say that he would like it if it was on something else than the Wii. |

Infamous Scribbler Posts: 589 Joined: 22 Dec 2007 | another brutal ripping of the wii, well done, it deserves all the shit it gets |
Paperboy Posts: 11 Joined: 22 Mar 2009 | They just need something to fill the hole that is the wii. An interesting idea of a consol which only comes out as an idea, too bad it wasn't cheaper and came with more games that are made for flailing. Atleast it gave some fun before chugging to a halt. |
Muckraker Posts: 282 Joined: 28 Feb 2009 | Hahahaha, very well done Yahtzee! The balloon was a perfect way to describe the game. Just brilliant! |
Infamous Scribbler Posts: 518 Joined: 4 Jun 2008 | And thus the phrase "Spectacle Fighter" was born much to our collective delight. The deflating balloon and the sunset were accents on a standard Zero Punctuation entry, meaning that it's informative while being sarcastic and brilliant while being hilarious. |

Paperboy Posts: 20 Joined: 1 Apr 2009 | Hmm...Madworld was my hope for a mature audience on the Wii, along with HOTD and the Conduit later this year. There's so few games on it that I'd want to play on it, I think I have to agree with Yahtzee and hope developers give up on the system and focus on the other two for the mature audiences. |

Anonymous Source Posts: 1 Joined: 15 Apr 2009 | Another great review. I really appreciated the "A Clockwork Orange" reference. |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 869 Joined: 19 Aug 2008 | The Wii comments are awesome as always. "Spectacle fighting", huh? I suppose that's actually one of my choice genres, as it's just plain fun to tear through legions of baddies in the coolest-looking ways possible...and get rewarded for being awesome. |
Anonymous Source Posts: 5 Joined: 17 Jan 2009 | Why dont you just stop reviewing games for Nintendo if you hate them so mutch. Its getting pretty boring to listen to you wine about Nintendo all the time. It seems like nomather what comes out for it you will hate it. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2342 Joined: 28 May 2008 | Well done Yahtzee! I think everyone would like to know WHY THE FUCK IS THIS GAME ON THE Wii??? |
Paperboy Posts: 32 Joined: 10 Oct 2007 | I really enjoyed Madworld found the levels, bosses, music and voice work all top notch. I do agree with his statement about it being on the wii, this quite easily could have been an excellent 360 game. However for the price I paid for it I had massive amounts of fun, now if only HOTD would come down in price! |

Heard that. I wish they would make all games available for Gamecube controllers also, or at least something else than the Wii Remote. I'd even go with a N64 controller, despite it's unpractical, uncool, stupid shape (although I guess they needed a way to fit all the buttons there) |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1206 Joined: 6 Oct 2008 | Spectacle Fighter? Hm, sounds like a good name for that genre. Plus, if I want to kill things with spectacle, I'll go play Team Fortress 2 and use explosives to reduce people to giblets. That said, well done, Yahtzee, you have again de-bleakened another Wednesday. |

Copy Clerk Posts: 60 Joined: 8 Apr 2009 | The Wii deserves more than minigame compilations. Doesn't have to be a bloodfest, but it does deserve more. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1649 Joined: 10 Sep 2008 | Haven't seen him pull out the grinder in a while. |
Anonymous Source Posts: 1 Joined: 15 Apr 2009 | I thought this game looked rather damp-pants the first time I saw it on a shelf. It being on the Wii only exacerbates it's God-awful pooeyness. I enjoyed the review though, it kept me giggling for a few minutes (which is just about as happy as I'm going to get until I can go home and have a wank). |
Time Lord Posts: 10005 Joined: 13 Feb 2008 | Is it wrong to like the sunset screen the most in this review? |
On the Record Posts: 5584 Joined: 14 Sep 2008 | Why isn't this showing up for me? Tried on Firefox, tried on Chrome, doesn't work at all. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1479 Joined: 29 Mar 2009 | Nice, and I agree with you, the only thing that makes the game popurlar is that it is a violent game on the Wii. |
