I'm pretty sure Yahtzee does not want to live in a cave making adventure games, nor did he make enough money to do so. And being the smart bastard we all know he is, he wants to evolve past ZP reviews as well. So Game Damage is an attempt to break onto TV stage, much like the first ZP style reviews were an attempt to get a spot on the internets. Even though Matt and Yug are naturally predisposed to be hated undeservingly, just because they're interpreted as two foreign bodies next to Yahtzee, I say we should give Game Damage a chance. For one person with no previous television experience and two people with no media experience whatsoever, they've done a pretty good job. Besides, even Yahtzee cannot do a half an hour TV show all by himself.
In any case, if the guys succeed and strike a deal with some cable network (if they didn't already), the world will get to see more Yahtzee. And the world needs more of his special brand of misanthropy. So let's hope he does for video game industry the same thing Charlie Brooker does for television.
More importantly, what does party mix have to do with video games?
Yahtzee, is that you?
Sorry, just joking. Welcome.
