Artist's Comments

This was a cartoon I did of the "real" Yahtzee when I saw him walking around the GDC.

Yahtzee saw it and said "oh that's good," so it's got the genuine seal of approval! :thumbsup: Can't ask for much more then that.

Wish I'd managed to be more articulate with the guy: I keep telling myself he's probably just a normal guy as suprised at his success as anyone else is, and there's no reason to be so nervous around him.

Then I would actually spy him someplace (not difficult since he's F-ing tall) and my brain would totally lock down into "OMG YAHTZEE" and spazz until I lost sight of him again.

So in the end, fangirlism won out. Sigh. Oh well. What can ya do?

So he actually wears the hat? I saw him in his latest review, the Uncharted one, but he didn't have his hat on. T-T.

To be fair, the hat wouldn't really have matched the headset he was using to record his voice.

I so applauded when he cut to live-action. I know it was to make a point about random, pointless Quick Time events interupting the flow and pacing of a game for no good reason.. and I think it was perfect, but that he thought it up at all has me in awe of the guy, he is just smarter then hell.

I was startled to see he couldn't be more then three or four years older then I am either.

He didn't appear AT the awards ceremonies or any any ceremonies for that matter, but he did attend a few events and he could be seen walking from place to place. Like I said, his hight made him very easy to spot in a crowd.

Well, not so much walking as gliding. The guy has an anti-gravity device in his belt or something: normal human heads bob up and down when they walk, he just sort of zips forwards, sort of bringing those long legs along like an afterthought.

LOL, I wonder if Yahtzee would mention anything like that in one of his reviews; it sounds like something he'd say. =P

Well, he did write an article about him visiting Valve Corporation in Seattle where there are a few photos of himself.
