    I like Zero Punctuation because Yahtzee and I essentially share the same view: that Western RPGs are far more lucid and playable than Eastern ones and those who love games like Final Fantasy have to to pick up quite a bit of suspended disbelief at the store every week. While I’m sure this is the most striking game in all the world – both graphically and logistically – I’m hard pressed to say it warrants picking up the PS3 just to play it. Fanboys attack now.
