I actually quit out of the video in the top ten because it was so boring. I only came back after reading a couple of comments and the joke was hilarious. But seriously, WAY too long.
The top 10 episode was a little too long for the punchline, and therefore quite weak when the punchline finally came. Though I did enjoy the comments that were there in the end and got a little chuckle - be a bit quicker in execution perhaps?
The Assassin's Creed joke was probably my favourite, it had me giggling and it would be nice to see more jokes done in this way - pointing out as if In Game about points that the games don't really bother to consider or explain. It would make sense if the first time an Assassin did a leap of faith they'd be a little freaked out. (Hell when I first played AC I was a bit freaked the first time I did it - until I landed in the bale of hay).
The fired one was okay, I don't really get the Rainbows & Cookies HQ ones, but some of the quips are quite entertaining. I find that they're funnier if you get what they're referring to. ie. The MapleStory joke, probably if I hadn't have played MS I wouldn't have found it so funny. But generally I find them a bit 'meh'. The acting is okay, the characters and their reactions go well, but the general feeling of these skits don't really hone out with funny. Its more 'oh yeah, I get it' worthy, which doesn't have the same emphasis.
I do see potential in this show, I've been watching it from the start, sometimes there are very clever, thoughtful and funny episodes and some just fall a little short - I suppose that's the problem with having a skit show with numerous skits, rather than one encompassing the entire episode like LRR. At least that way an episode can be weak, while another can come out as genius. Whereas it seems with the SAGS and its multiple-skits seem to have its little gems - like the AC skit - hidden beneath a weaker skit like the Gamesterbation one. I think you need to have a good think and work out which skits are more successful than others, and try and focus a little more on those rather than the 'meh' ones. I'll keep watching though. Good luck as always.

I did really like the first skit, and Assassin's Creed was okay, but it worked because it was so short. Third one... it was o kay too, but went on too long. I know I say it every time I comment on these videos, but I really like your shorter skits better! I think you could do more smaller, shorter skits with only one longer one, it might work a bit better. But then, that's just me.
It was great hearing those comments spoken out loud. Otherwise, I found this episode a bit lackluster.
I really don't think the first skit was a real jab at anyone.
it was just a parody of list shows in any format, they had a top ten list of
something that is completely ridiculous(like say a top ten list of best honking sounds in racing games).
Assassin trust building exercises lol.
