No involvement by Brian Cox

What time is it? It's Let's Play Manhunter time! And apparently the reason why it took so long is because Gabriel couldn't play it for more than ten minutes at a time without falling into some kind of trance.



EDIT: And here's the second part. I'm now of a resolution to not upload any videos longer than an hour, because it feels cruel to hog more than the average person's lunch break.

  1. I just clicked through to youtube and saw pages of comments. I always thought we were the special ten or twenty people who cared about these :/ Ah well.

    Also, in regards to the Mycroft Holmes reference, he didn't go on to mention that the reason people sat about doing nothing all day is because it was an opium den.

  2. I can see why Gabe took so long recording this. This is an atrociously bad game.

  4. Oh god, I can't believe there's another game that makes my eyes bleed like Hugo 2 did.

    Well worth the wait though keep it up :)

  5. For some reason after watching that I feel incredibly tired. Thanks for at least temporarily curing my insomnia. Looking forward to watching part 2.

  6. I personally think it's fine to have more than an hour video.

  8. This game looks horrible. Usually the games seem bad, but not this bad. I would never have made it this far.

  9. With respect to video editors, I've had pretty good luck with Kdenlive. There's no Windows version, but Linux Mint or Ubuntu installs are utter cake these days. You can use it to create a ZP-style slideshow (I speak from personal experience), or do somewhat more sophisticated video composition. Handling a Let's Play should be no trouble for it at all.

    Also recently released is a little goodie called Flowblade. I haven't been able to try it out yet (incompatible libmlt requirements), but it looks reasonable for a first release.

  10. After posting the above, I got a brainwave and actually managed to get Flowblade to work. "It's cute," is about the nicest that can be said for it, but it's definitely not yet ready for prime time. Shows a lot of promise, though. Given that it's written mostly in Python, I expect it will progress quickly.

  11. Oh, just thought I'd mention this. In America, employers can just train you to use a forklift. No official certification required (although it does exist.)

  15. Fantastic work. I love all these obscure/shitty point and clicks.

  16. I think I might call it a bad Let's Play when you lose interest in the game and start chatting. Don't do a game that BORES you.

  17. There is a Ghost rider game, i saw i friend play it on the ps2 once, then i called him a bitch because it was boring, then i got drunk and played guitar hero, summarizing, Ghost rider game sucks, but its a thing, its what i though of Inversion, how the fuck did anybody give them money to do that, maybe the same people that give money to the umbrella corporation, and i cant figure out whats more stupid, ''we will turn our staff in zombies'' or ''we will make Gears of War again, but more boring, worse, and you will be killing the guys from gears of war instead of just being them, also there are only three bosses that you kill over and over again'' but i digress.

    1. It's like making a souffle; right ingredients, patients, and absolutely no talking during the baking process. Otherwise you are just a run of the mill dick cake thats all deflated.

  25. Gabriel and Yahtzee, I know you're probably not even reading this, but for what it's worth, I made that Happy Phil fan art you were requesting:

  29. Mr. Yahtzee, I'd like to suggest, apropos of nothing, that you might do well in reviewing some of the projects on display on steams brand new "greenlight" method of picking games (I'd give you a link for it, but it's too long and I think you can find it by yourself, eh?). Maybe you'd also like to submit your own game; you have one of those, right?
