He's called: "Yahtzee Croshaw", which I hope is his given name, because that would be awesome. He's the face, voice, and hat behind "Zero Punctuation", a feature of The Escapist.
Oh, and he doesn't just review games, he also deals with the gamer "culture". Like in this video, in which he vivisects videogame webcomics.

He's not going to tell you what games to buy, since he's in Australia and naturally receives games long after all the decent world. So what is his role? Criticism. Actual, legitimate criticism, of videogames. You might remember that sort of thing if you can think back to what it was like in 1986 when you'd listen to a friend tell you if he liked a game or not. "It's like Rygar!" he'd say, and you'd say: "I hate Rygar!" and you'd know not to play that game.
Rygar sucked.
