Funny / Judging By The Cover

• His Mega Man cover review focuses on how everyone in the Japanese Rockman cover and European cover are obsessed with Mega Man's ass and fisting it. When showing the infamous US cover, Yahtzee remains silent for a few seconds before brightly exclaiming, "LOOKS FINE TO ME!"^note Perhaps because there's no fisting involved.
• Hitman Agent 47's poster has multiple cases of rather hilariously blatant copy-pasting. Yahtzee even has a tune he hums when he's preparing the comparison. "Blimey. You see it everywhere once you start looking for it, don't ya? Not unlike racism."
  • In the same video he points out that some of the soldiers are up to odd things, such as a guy aiming at the ground, another guy crouched on top of a van for seemingly no reason, and one soldier who forgot to bring a gun and is trying to hide it by just miming.
• His take on Charles Le Brun's Adoration of the Shepherds. Particularly his reading the look on Mary's face as a sarcastic eye-roll.
  "Oh no, the stable's on fire. Whatever will we do?"
  "Oh no, a cow's come to eat the Baby Jesus. Because that's totally what herbivores do."
• Judging The Beatles White Album has to be seen to be believed.
  THEY KNOW
• "Party on, you gormless cunt."
• Yahtzee tries to do a side-by-side comparison for the European, American and Japanese cover of Silent Hill. After being sorely disappointed by the blurbs on the back covers of the western versions due to their incoherence, he moves onto the Japanese version, hoping for the better:
  Yahtzee: Oh well, let's see if the Japanese can improve on their thus far dismal showing.
  (cut to the Japanese back-cover, which is written entirely in Japanese)
  Yahtzee: (Beat) Nice drop shadow! (hastily ends the video)
• Yahtzee's utter disdain towards the title of Resident Evil: The Final Chapter which he sees as pretentious.
  Isn't it cute when films with the cultural value of a McDonald's drive-in menu start using the language of books? "The Final Chapter", like this series is being chronicled in some leather-bound tome by a noted scholar, when there is only one book one can associate with the Resident Evil series, and that is "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Appealing to One, Very Specific Demographic".
• He gives voices to the horses on the cover of Defender of the Crown, to match their facial expressions.
  White Horse: (surprised) Oh, Harold, why are you wearing that tinfoil hat?
  Brown Horse: (bug-eyed) GAHHH, WESTERN DEMOCRACY IS A SHAM!! OPEN YOUR EYES, PEOPLE!!
• Yahtzee's interpretations of the cast on the backside cover of◊ Dragon Age: Inquisition from left to right are as follows: David Bowie, Grace Jones, Joe Pesci, young David Bowie, Richard O'Brien, Daniel Radcliffe, Magneto, a man with a giant novelty "L" lodged in his head, Emilio Estevez, Emperor Palpatine, girl David Bowie, black Mary Poppins, and BRIAN BLESSED!!!!! (which yes, he does emphasize).
• Yahtzee's description of C3-P0 and R2-D2 on the poster of The Force Awakens as "robot optimistically modeled on an Academy Award and robot somewhat more realistically modeled on a butt plug with which to fuck oneself." He then is aghast Phasma is wearing a cape. "Fuck, did you get turned down from the Daft Punk-themed wrestling league?"
  • He then sneers that despite all the money thrown at The Force Awakens, they were still so cheap they cut-and-paste the Stormtroopers, proving it with his own cut-and-paste.
• In his judgement of the first promo photo for the Suicide Squad (2016) movie, he describes Harley Quinn's new appearance as "Rocky-Horror-On-Ice-Castmember-Tripped-And-Fell-In-Some-Daddy-Issues."
• In his review of Mad Max (2015), Yahtzee interprets the slightly unconventional blocking of Max's stance and the image's composition as being not that of a big triple-A video game, but a hip-hop album.
  "Yes, it's Notorious M.A.D. with Straight Outta Wasteland featuring DJ Weird Shoulders.
  Yo yo yo I'm M-A-D, so step off my face
  Gonna look like Captain Haddock and beat you in a race
  Got a big ol' gun and an even bigger frown
  and I'm really paranoid about my trousers falling down
  
  I'm DJ Shoulders, and I'm here to say
  I really wish Max would get out of the way
  I'm only trying to drive down this thoroughfare
  Oh look, there's something interesting happening over there!"
  • He then says that all of the hip-hop fans are gone, retching at his Old School Introductory Rap.
