Yahtzee Comments on E3’s “Trailer Park”

E3’s done, the circus animals have been packed up, the fairgrounds are abandoned and nobody knew that an irritable game reviewer from Australia had played the most important role of all. Nobody was with him when he died.

Actually, Yahtzee’s alive and well and as curmudgeonly as ever. This week, he goes over E3’s offerings.

A lot of what was shown at E3 is worth making fun of, so it’s no surprise that this is one of Yahtzee’s finest videos.

Maybe I’ve hit the lithium too hard, but I don’t believe we’re living in a necessarily uncreative time. Yeah, the NES had game concepts like chefs armed with velociraptors and stickbugs, but we had a lot of crap as well. What’s more, the amount of 8-bit garbage on American shelves couldn’t hold a candle to what Japan endured.

I believe that all life is a cycle and it won’t be long before someone comes up with something brilliant. Wait for it, my sons (and daughters).
