I really liked them both, I thought they worked pretty well together.
Graham and Paul did seem like they had a bit of a job stopping Yahtzee from completely taking over
, but for me that made the episode.
I'd love to see more of these, especially ones with both of the Un-Skippable guys in

Very much agreed.MaxTheReaper said:
I don't get what a lot of people's hate over Graham's ZP review was over; I actually really liked it.
I don't know, were Unskippable's views up this week? That's what I would use to determine its success.
Well I've got to say I really liked it, but the zero punctuation part more than the unskippable ep.
care to elaborateMaxTheReaper said:It must've been a bit of work, too. I know I'd have been spitting up blood from talking that fast, and I didn't hear any gurgling, which is admirable.Lord Krunk said:I don't think it was steam he ran out of.ohellynot said:Yes it wasn't bad, it also shows that it is hard what yahtzee does. plus it was kinda funny to see him run out of steam after about two minutes

I'll try to tie all this in somehow so that it doesn't seem completely off topic, but notice I never did actually call Doomsday Arcade good. I called it a 'solid series'. I'll let it get away with a lot because (a) the shooting style reminds me of Hot Fuzz and (b) I like to see people try to create video game characters on screen that I know hollywood is never going to get around to (or do correctly). Even if the second bit failz, I'll give them points for trying because it does have a bit of charm to it (It's the british-ness-ess of it all, if you must know, and here's the part where I tie it all nicely together), which is a lot more than I can say about Unskippable. I see a real lack of charm in their series, it just feel more like two guys bitching about horrible games, much like this paragraph has been me bitching about two guys bitching about horrible video games that I'm sure were meant to be bitchin'.
But I digress.
I'll say this and then try to leave it alone as best I can; the crossover felt more of a 'Hey, you've got Unskippable in my ZP!' 'No! You got ZP in my Unskippable!', then it felt like a good crossover. I am open to the idea of them doing it again, but I feel that they must give it a lot more effort. I don't think I'm wrong when I say that ZP and Unskippable fans do not always get along well (sometimes they are one in the say, sometimes not). True, you can't please everyone, but a few steps in a good direction would be nice.
To answer the question of whether it was a success or not we have to decide what the definition of success is. You seem to be asking if they were enjoyable, succeeding in entertaining. I enjoyed both, so I would say absolutely, but that is a completely subjective opinion everyone will have to decide for themselves.ohellynot said:
In terms of what THEY were trying to do, increase the exposure of Unskippable among the escapist viewership that ONLY comes here to watch Yahtzees reviews then LEAVES, I would say ABSOLUTELY!
My friends only watch Zero Punctuation and now they at least know who I'm talking about if I mention Graham from Unskippable. I for one enjoyed Graham on Zero more than Yahtzee on Unskippable, but thats just me
