I'm involved in an aussie xbox community called play on australia [soon to be re-branded Punch On Australia] and started a thread asking everyone what some of their favorite websites are.....someone posted escapist so I checked it out. Glad I did.

A buddy told me of a guy named Yahtzee who made hilarious videos while telling what is good and [more so] bad about games. While I've come to disagree with Yahtzee on many of his ratings, I still find his work funny and worth watching.

My friend showed me Zero Punctuation, but my internet loads videos slow. I would browse through the articles and forums while I would wait for Yahtzee to load. But I knew this place was like my internet home way from home when Policebox63 linked me The Escapist TARDIS crew recently. :)
So basically, I came for the vids, and I stayed cause I think you guys are fun and interesting!♥

F'n Zero Punctuation. Some assjack sitting in the cubicle behind me was playing one of his reviews and laughing the whole time, meanwhile I'm on the line with a disgruntled Dell customer whose PC had failed due to stupidity in factory (RAM wasn't even seated fully). The whole call the customer and I (I learned later from feedback about the customer) could hear him laughing...
So I had to see what was up, and what possibly cost me a good QA review.

I originally came here for Unforgotten Realms but sort of wandered off without making an account, then a friend drew me back here with ZP,and I eventually made an account, now I really stay here for LRR, ENN, and Doraleous, I also watched the Nintendo series (I forget the name) and Apocalypse lane religiously, I also like the news+Reviews on here.

I try to avoid threads with high posts though :eek: Just a weird thing.

Zero Punctuation was mentioned in a Wikipedia article on Portal...no, really.

After over a year of lurking I finally registered.

I looked at a Painkiller video review in YouTube, and it mentioned Yahtzee's video in the description. So I watched the video, and that's how I knew the Eswcapist. Didn't sign up for like 5 months though...

I was just wondering around searching for traps when all of a sudden my universe and story was moved to a different website. Upon arriving at the new website, my story restarted, but it has better animation. I then went on to have steadily worsening episodes until I was cancelled.

Oh and if you didn't get it it was Unforgotten Realms.
