It was either Apocalypse Lane or Zero Punctuation, I can't really remember which one I watched first but when I really got into the site and the forums and all that was when I searched Google for Zero Punctuation.

Don't remember where I heard about Zero Punctuation, but putting his name in Google is what brought me here.

Yahtzee. Specifically, when they were showing previews on XPlay.
This.

I wonder how many people are still around from when they came for Unforgotten Realms...
I was completely hooked after I saw Unforgotten Realms. And then I found the older version of the series and loved it even more!

EDIT: Woops, typed the wrong end tag.

The funny hat man who speaks fast, ho ho ho.

You know, like 98% of the people in this thread. Although I did stay after a few visits for the forums, there was something about them I loved.

Sadly that feeling has been slipping away slowly for the past year due to multiple reasons that constantly recur. I barely post in the forums now compared to what I used to.

The Zero Punctuation episode of MindJack was what brought me to the Escapist and I was kicking myself on why I hadn't discovered Yahtzee earlier but it was Extra Credits that spurred me to sign up. I now visit the the Escapist pretty much everyday as it defiantly one of the best video game websites out there.

Back when they started to show previews of ZP on Xplay I finally was curious enough that I came to the escapist and joined the community a while later (Even though I really didn't post for about a year) and I've been here ever since.

Side note: I don't think we'll see many people who came here exclusively because of Extra Credits after that little situation they had.

ZP, when it moved from Youtube to here. Took me two years to realize how awesome the forums are. Two years wasted >.<

Yahtzee, because Five Days a Stranger terrified the crap out of me. And then I checked his blog live journal. Which led me here.

My friend was like "Hey this internet reviewer talks really fast. His show is called Zero Punctuation."

A few months later I decided to sign up for an account. Or was it a year later.. I dunno.

ZP initially brought me here. But signed up to talk on forums after I saw a couple threads that I wanted to take part in. And the forums are why I'm still here. Along with the other feature shows of course.

Yahtzee. Honestly, I bet like less than 4% of the people here would honestly say otherwise.

Probably extra credits: It takes a look beneath the gaming industry a lot, which I love and Yahtzee's machine-gun fire mouth!

I was actually looking for some fellow Silent Hill 2 lovers in hopes of finding more games like it (total fail on that score *sigh*).

BUT I found Yahtzee's review of it and then proceeded to watch a crapton more of his reviews :) Now I dig Extra Credits as well.

Zero Punctuation all da way.
My friend showed me the 50 Cent and Velvet Assassin reviews and I thought they were hilarious.

Zero punctuation, I've been watching almost since the start, but only joined the site a year or so after.
