I love Doomsday Arcade. It's my favorite thing on The Escapist, well ahead of any other webseries I've yet come across.
ZP is good, but it's not as good. But you poll doesn't have DA, so I'll pick EC.

ZP IS the reason the escapist exists...
Bottom line is that this site is ONLY about copypasted zombie-threads and sucking aussie balls.
For somebody speaking with such authority you are amazingly wrong.

In fact, I think I like it more than Zero Punctuation. :eek:
I would say it's about equal for me.

Extra Credits is also awesome, but I still have to go with Bob.

ENN which I guess is loading ready run. Doraleous and associates has also grown on me recently.

Oh and Unskippable~ Ironicly I find it more funnier when I haven't played the games. I don't know how thats Ironic, but w/e :p

It was Unforgotten Realms, but that went bad and, y'know, was cancelled.

Now it's Unskippable. Although I can get some good laughs from Zero Puntuation, it can't promise a chuckle every week like Unskippable does.

I would say Extra Credits, but it's just a little too thought provoking for me. I'm a bit dim, so if I'm watching something for more than five minutes and haven't laughed, I get bored.
Yeah, I'm just a joy to watch movies with.

Unskippable's Deadly Premonition and Legaia 2 videos where amazing. I absolutely loved them, I was laughing so hard. I played both of the games and its great to see someone riff on something cheesy that I love.

P.S. I never tried riding the sheep when I played Legaia 2 >_>

Apocalypse Lane was a good show too, kept me going to the end.

Current line-up I'd have to say Doraleous and Associates which I only got into because of Lord Yahtzee.

LoadingReadyRun, followed by There Will Be Brawl, and Doomsday Arcade with ENN, Unskippable and Escape to the Movies bringing up the rear. They're all so goddamn good I wish they could all be inside me at the same time, but alas, I'm stuck watching one video at a time.

That was a tough decision between Doraleous & Associates and Extra Credits. Extra Credits won by a hair because it makes me think, where D&A just makes me laugh.

Close call between Escape to the Movies and Doraleous & Associates. Had to pick Doraleous though, not because I don't appreciate MovieBob but just because of this idea that following one angry nerd guru on the Escapist already decreases my chance of sex enough.

Damn that was a hard choice.

ENN and Unskippable are both great, consistently kinda funny. I like ENN a bit more for being a bit more intelligent with some of it's humor.

I love Rebecca Mayes Muses, I really respect her skill and ability in writing songs, and quickly (relatively). I've done a little song writing and it's not easy. Also, lovely voice and some good songs, but sometimes the songs fall outside styles I like.

Even I hit it with my axe has proven interesting a fun at times, enough so for me to watch all of them.

But at the moment at least, I went with Extra Credits. It's very intelligent and well crafted, but still with some fun in there. And it gets me thinking. I think too often I just run through games, and this helps me to stop, take a look, and help understand some of the reasons I like some of the games I like. A good example of this was the last episode, talking about that Mass Effect choice. I knew it was a cool moment, but went through it quickly, the paragon points guiding me. In the months since then I've slowly mulled over where I stand on the geth, their relationship with the quarians (I'm with the geth in the morning war but can understand why the quarians did what they did) and that choice, but that episode really made me think about that moment in that game, made me see how much I'd thought about it, and just how damned good, skilled and even subtle (well subtle enough for me) Bioware are.

I can't believe extra credits is winning... I hate the voice, the videos, and completely disagree with everything he says- although with the first two hates in mind I have never been able to go through a whole episode jsut like I can't watch Escape to the Movies any more because of the "The Expendables Incident"

Extra Credits by far. An excellent game commentary series made by people with a genuine love of the medium and a vision for what it could achieve and some of the pitfalls it has fallen into.

But seriously, the only reason I'm here was because of Yahtzee.

Unskippable is good, but sometimes they pick game cutscenes that are dull, and it brings the whole thing down.
That's the beauty of it all. They turn stupid cutscenes into hilarious videos.

Unskippable for me.
