On this stop in the "Yahtzee Chronological Bingefest" we see the first glimpse of what will become the long returning and well loved Zero Punctuation intro. Fascinating. On with the tour!
+FANGSUP7 Mr. Tour-Guide person, I thought our field trip was suppose to be at the museum?
+Zach Ritchie ugh zaaaaaach why do you have to ruin everything?!???! Go sit next to jimbo the nerd over there!
Can We finally go to the gift shop? I'd like to buy a white fedora and probably a Yahtzee board game.
@@PhantomShadow224 I would rather get an Imp plushie

Ah, I see I was not the only one scrolling to find this. Carry on.
Man, back when I was first watching this series I thought he was saying this game was tepidly fun at best, but looking back this is practically a glowing review by Yahtzee's standards.
This is essentially a cheerfully romantic peck on the cheek compared to the shit he unleashed on Sonic in Sonic Unleashed. Christ...
Every time I scroll by this, I laugh at the irony of this being the first ZP that doesn't use copyrighted music, and the first line Yahtzee says in it being "There comes a point where you have to stop ignoring something."
that's brilliant, actually
How is that irony? It is not irony at all. It is most literally literal.
+Schwallex “You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means." - Inigo Montoya
For what I'm getting from the after credits scene here is that Yahtzee wants to give me a handy.....I'm bad at charades.
"Bratz: Hey kids, lets all dress like french tarts." Wasn't that the alternate title for Cuties?
This world needs Fuzzy Felt Deep Space Nine.
04:25 after 10 years I think it's safe to say that this was totally not a shark jumping moment
that was the best endcredit thing ever
I think yahtzee never made his own character with a bazooka and shot it everywhere like a psicopath
Hee hee, he used a level exit sprite from Lemmings. That makes me smile.
The biggest problem that I have with EVERY LEGO GAME EVER is the inevitable part where you don't know what to do & it won't tell you. Or rather me.
It's Soooooo annoying especially when all your friends beat it in a matter of seconds
Yep. Happens at least once in every one I played. Ironic for games geared towards kids, isn't it?
it really is. I got so stuck on some levels it took hours until i finnaly found the thing i needed
You mean like finding out how to destroy the shiny bricks in Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga? I went and bought every single tip I could in the cantina, because it was the last one for sale. Then I found out you get the tip for free in Episode VI, and the shiny bricks were usually just hiding bonuses.
That part at the bank with the touching tiles in Lego Batman confused the hell out of me.
First episode we heard the opener that would be used for the next 10k years. Still love it.
4:30 is that good old "anything goes" i hear? i think it is!
(is just happy to have someone acknowledge Babylon 5)
truth
How about Bionicle Battlefront?
Ben Walsh Not if you look at how Lego is trying to disown it.
Ben Walsh So is Duplo and Escapist still made a joke about that
KNEX Starcraft! You must construct additional pylons: using plastic sticks! But you do not have enough minerals or Vespene gas!
Aem
I would play the ever loving shit outta Fuzzy Felt DS9
my little sister actually had horse adventures for the xbox. Terrible times, terrible times.
Whats wrong with the fridge from the new indiana jones movie?
Dropping from a plane in a raft, sliding down a mountain off a cliff, in to a river and down a waterfall and not even loosing your hat is way nuttier.
I'd say surviving a nuclear blast by hiding in a fridge is a bit more outlandish than a man who doesn't want to lose his hat.
Blairsy Bub Its not that he doesnt want to loose his hat, Its that he jumps out of a plane on a raft and then falls down a cliff in said raft and goes over a waterfall in the same raft. And there were even 2 people in that raft. Its equally silly.
NO IT'S NOT! Yes, it is unlikely that he could keep his hat on the whole time, but it is not even a comparison to surviving a nuke by hiding in the fucking fridge! It's fucking impossible!
Blairsy Bub
Its impossible for 2 people to even survive the fall out of a plane in a raft. The Indie movies were never serious. So i really dont know why people are so hung up over it.
Its like someone starting to complain that Tom shouldnt be alive after Jerry lights a stick of dynamite under his ass.
Hmmm. I suppose.
I always pictured him like the character in the video xD
Hey everyone! Let's all make a list of games that should be condemned to video game hell! I'll start.
Aliens: Colonial Marines
Ride to hell: retribution. (Easy target I know)
Any fucking COD game.
Pipe cleaner: advanced warfare
every crash bandicoot game on 7th gen consoles
Every Zelda CDi game
Mega Blox Halo
wait that was a thing
Oh! Oh! I've got it! Model kit Warhammer 40k!
Wait...
Anyone else want a puppet show of Ring now?
I always felt like making it, maybe I shall
At the end the costumed puppeteer crawls from the booth towards a bunch of 5 year olds sitting mere inches away. I'd be glorious!
It's actually from a Musical from the Thirties, Fallout 3 just used it. It's the instrumental version, and another version (sung this time, as intended) of it was used in the opening scene from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, hence it being used to lampoon Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Yep, he sure is. I still think his "review" of the last Indy movie there at the end is great and pretty much sums up most fans reactions to it.
i loved that one. "It's Doctor Jones to you Doll!"
Yup, the 3 Indy movies: Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Last Crusade, and Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Loved all of 'em!
I love how he's become a sort of legand among UA-cam
Stickle Bricks Babylon 5 cracked me up xD
1:54 - 2:08 That's kinda why my little brother loves that game and pouts every time I say I don't wanna play it with him.
"You betrayed Shiva!"
Finally finished all the episodes where Yahtzee cleverly uses music without permission.
4:31 finally a review i can relate with
every time you say something i was thinking for years, like "The ONLY Indiana Jones movies", i want to hug you and die a happy man.
Anyone notice how Yahtzee talks like a Frank Miller word bubble in these older videos?
By putting extra emphasis on words? He doesn’t repeat himself like Frank Miller has his characters do.
@@thomasraines1396 By putting really strong emphasis in weird places.
@@cheezemonkeyeater oh alright.
0:37 LMAO funniest Yahtzee quote ever
I never wanted to see Yahtzee, but here we are.
Young Indy is actually a bonus level you'll typically get after completing the rest of the game.
I actually enjoyed Crystal Skull. The first three movies were homages to the serials of the '30s and '40s, roughly when those movies are set. So lots of swashbuckling action, exotic locales, supernatural elements that may or may not have a mundane explanation, and beating up Nazis. The fourth movie is set in '57, so the influences draw from that decade. Particularly the B-movies. I grew up on a lot of both sets of influences despite being born in '83, so all the Indiana Jones movies have a nostalgia appeal for me.
I'm also nowhere near as bothered by the refrigerator scene as most people seem to be. The phoned-in CGI in the monkey swinging scene was far more cringe-worthy and it didn't break my overall enjoyment.
Yeah it was no dumber than the plots of the other films. People need to take nostalgia goggles off.
I HAVE AN IDEA!!! Megablocks Starship Troopers!!
i approve of the review at the end! actions say more than words, right?
I remember playing this game when I was 8 years old...and I still have it.
I liked Lego Star Wars when I was younger because it had episodes 1, 2, and 3 all rolled into one game.
Unbeknownst to Yahtzee, there is a good Playmobil game for the ps2. It's called "Hype: The Time Quest" and it's a Zelda clone. Not as good as a real Zelda game, but still, it's good.
Ben Walsh The protagonist is a knight named "Hype" who travels through time to save his fiancée named "Vice". How can he hate that?
4:53 That right there should be the thumbnail for every Yahtzee UA-cam video ever made
It is from Fallout 3. The song is called Anything Goes by Cole Porter.
I bought this for two dollars at a game store just for a nostalgia kick, and I was basically insulted by the condescension of one of my favorite trilogies. I completely agree with the "parody" feel of it. How did I miss this the first time I played it?
2:25 Minor Lemmings reference? Nice.
Dude I would TOTALLY buy a Duplo Firefly.
OMG BABYLON 5!!!! I am glad you know of that amazing show!
OMG, "that bloke from Sliders" I knew i didn't imagine it, no one else i know has ever heard of that show, i thought i had dreamt it or something.
'George "Franchisicide" Lucas' lmao :-D
1:30 VOICE CRACK LEEEEEEEL
That's not a voice crack, he just turned into a goose for half a second because fuck you **and** your rules.
"I mean the only three Indiana Jones movies..." Pretty much.
"Only 3 Good ones is what he ment"
Yeah, that comment was meant to be agreeing, but it was a bit vague.
By "He Ment" i mean yahtzee
Logan Schmidt 3:52 shows what movie he meant be this, and it was meant in a way all Indi fans would already know.
i remember playing this when i was 9 at my friends house.
It is also in Temple of Doom, probably the reason why he used it in the first place.
This is the most positive review I think I've ever seen from Yahtzee!
Portal 1 also springs to mind. He did say that anyone who doesn't love it is stupid.
i was singing along to the anything goes at the end
how odd that before seeing this video I saw a commercial for a LEGO game "LEGO KNIGHTS"
Logan Maxamillion NEXO KNIGHTS YOU MEAN?
It is. Anything Goes, from the musical of the same name, i believe, by Cole Porter.
The song at the end should be recognized by Fallout 3 fans.
The song is Anything Goes.
However I don't believe it is the very nice Cole Porter version that so keeps me soul so elevated in one of the best sandbox games I have ever played.
Yahtzee loves Indy games!
that was certainly an indepth and series discussion
It's also used in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. I imagine that's the link Yahtzee was making there.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that the finale to Raiders of the Lost Ark is traumatizing for kids.
We're dealing with Nazis, here. Not exactly kid-friendly to begin with.
ladenswallow09 True. But it's tone is so clashing compared to everything else.
You know, I think Yahtzee's little animated character needs a mustache now.
"an unusually screamy pie factory" XD
When I think I've watched them all, there is always a hidden one that pops up. Today is was Indy :D
Stickle Bricks Babylon 5 was the best one. I'm glad he stuck with it long enough to get that far.
This is bringing back memories lol
4:37 Anything Goes by Cole Porter!
You mean Temple of Doom. That's where I first heard it, and if fits considering the Indy tie-in.
Google tailors all the ads you see depending on what you look at, it would be weird if there wasn't a lego advert on a lego video.
Zero Punctuation finally got it's song.
4:49 IS THAT REALLY WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE?!?!? *head explodes"
Why has no one mentioned yet that the reason for the song choice in the first place is it being in the opening sequence for Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom?
I really really really really liked Lego star wars especially the second one and of the about half dozen other Lego games I have played, I still like those the most. Also I assume there is a relatively massive nostalgia factor here given legos and starwars
Best starburst commercial I've ever seen.
I love Zero Punctuation. It shows how most videogames these days produced by mass companies pretty much suck with the exception of a few "gems".
George "Frachisicide" Lucas XD
They also let you create your own characters which is pretty cool.
And now we have Gears Pop! coming out soon
I can't remember whether it was Lego Indy 1 or 2 in which Indy can pull Marion Ravenwood in with his whip and snog her! lol
It's not FROM Fallout 3, it just made an appearance in Fallout 3 :)
The rest of your comment was accurate though.
Though you forgot to mention that the song is incredible, along with every other song in FO3.
At 1:05 they should make a movie called Mission Imppossible. It would make MILLIONS!!!
ZOMG, Yahtzee knows Firefly!!!! Epic win is epic!
Yup. Ironically from the play called, you guessed it- "Anything Goes."
I want ALL of those Toy + Sci-fi games.
ANYTHING GOOOOOEEEESS
@Telamon8 Agree. Technic was the mac daddy.
His review on the Crystal Skull movie was well done...
Fuzzy felt deep space 9... that sounds awesome
@bsmb98 Yahtzee made those imp characters long before the Android market had a little imp mascot. They are from his first review ever, Darkness (demo)
The Lego movie licensed game are a guilty pleasure for me to be honest. There something charming about famous characters being reduced to Lego quality. However right now I think they're over doing it with releasing a game every year but either way I still quite enjoy them, especially Lego Batman 2 DC Heroes, that game was really fun.
One of the things I like about LEGO Indiana Jones is the way Indy can grab Marion Ravenwood with his whip and snog her!
My child good as a game right here
did everyone just forget about the Indiana Jones childhood movies
I could have sworn that one of the adult Indiana Jones movies an advertising for them
but I still can't find them anywhere
It may not be from Fallout originally, but it is where a majority of people would have heard it first. I honestly do not think many people today have heard of Anything Goes, or at least compared to the popularity of Fallout.
I want to see a puppet show version of The Ring now.
AHA! Finally found the one where he starts using the Ian Dorsch music!
my parents were always pissed when they stepped on my legos... and I always laughed...
