*** Well, only if freakishly-large hands counts as a super-power. Not everyone has the hand-capacity for that style of holding a controller (likely the same people that derided the UsefulNotes/XBox's original controller size).

** There's a significant distinction to be drawn between "buying a game used because you're too cheap to pay full price, thereby depriving the game's creator of revenue from it in favour of the reseller getting it all", and "buying a game used because it's ''literally impossible'' to acquire a new copy".

** It's derived from one of his earliest adventure game creations, the ''Arthur Yahtzee'' Trilogy. It's anyone's guess as to how or why the character was named, but "Yahtzee" became his online handle, the games being an embellishment on his own life; he preferred using "Yahtzee" as his go-to alias in real life when introduced to new people, after moving to Australia and wanting a fresh start.

* On many occasions he's bashed people who buy games used, on many other occasions he's bashed gaming companies for not keeping their old games available for purchase. Where does he expect gamers to get old games? Is there some arbitrary threshold that he hasn't told us (i.e. "don't buy used unless the game is at least two years old")?

* So in his [=AssCreed=] III review, he compares the game constantly shoving historical figures into your face to TheMagicSchoolBus. This comparison....makes no sense at all. Magic School Bus focused pretty much solely on science IIRC, not history. A better example would probably have been something like ''WesternAnimation/LibertysKids''.
