I'd been wondering if this game was any good. I now know I haven't been missing much. Not surprising coming from EA.
Anyone else notice the typo at the end, 'Pubic Enemy Number One'?

And you were looking forward to it too. Perhaps like Assassin's creed but a bit worse.

1. I told you it sucked.

2. Damn, 8 hours? You must have gotten lost somewhere along the way. This game takes 5 hours MAX.

Wow, never thought of the story mode from the perspective that I might BE the bad guy. Nicely done.

This was very good on the demo, never seen anything like this before, but after playing it for the second time i got bored immedeatly. And the game was very bright indeed.

I very much hope it's Left 4 dead next week.

I was hoping this game would turn out sorta like Portal but it just added another line to my "do not buy this game" list...

So... I suggest Gears of War 2 next time.

I was a little confused by the TV trailer for this game, because the concept of first-person platforming just doesn't sound feasible. Glad that yahtzee shared my sentiments.

WTG dude. Another Wednesday just got better.

I was hoping that game was going to be good, but I guess all freerunning games seem to be doomed by the outset.

See: Assassin's Creed, expectations, innovative ideas, and you!

Do you people really need to post before you even watch the freaking video?

I think first-person platforming would be exhilarating if it were implemented well. Unfortunately, this is EA we're talking about, so NO, it's NOT.

He makes a good point about experimentation. It's nice to see an original concept getting public attention instead of appeasing the clamoring stinking masses with another derivative watered-down deplorable sequel.

Comprehensive, hilarious and on-point. It's classic Zero Punctuation and I'm as happy to be a part of it as Yahtzee is to having his bollocks toyed with (in the name of science of course).

100 dollars in Australia...Jeez, I feel bad for you guys =/

I can only assume its a good review of the game seeing as I haven't played the game yet. I'm getting it for x-mas though, so I'll be able to take part in this "experiment" as well! Woot!

I thought he'd actually like this game...cause, you know...it's original.
Oh well, at least his misery is our hilarious 5 minutes.

Well played, good sir. Well played.

Oh, be fair. Let them bask in their illusionary feeling of accomplishment before they get smacked across their idiotic faces with a ban stick.

Haha, very good review this week. I like it when he just flat out hates a game. The reviews are much funnier that way.

I laughed like hell during this review, especially in the way you pronounced "dreams" and while this review tries to crucify mirror's edge I'm still nervously awaiting it.

I never hugely like the look of this, all my friends gushed about how the gameplay and graphics looked amazing, but I didn't hugely believe that the gameplay would be any better then Assassins Creed in 1st Person, and I didn't realize there was any combat in it for about 4 weeks. I'm not clever...

I wonder why everyone seemes to have such problems with the game. I fell to death maybe five times during the whole game... And I usually suck at almost every game. I really love this game.
But still a great review. The "ate his own shoe" part made me spill my beer.
