I actually came with March Madness. I was a Lord of the Rings Online player and Turbine sent us all over here to vote (two or three years ago). We won...everybody hated us...most left, but I stayed.

Same as almost everyone else: zero punctuation.

I heard about the show from another gaming site (that many of you have probably heard of) called purepwnage when jeremy did a parody seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7VAhzPcZ-s

The like the parody so much that I came to the escapist and spent and hour or two watching every single video yahtzee had up at the time. I guess I'm just lucky that yahtzee had switched to the escapist at the time of the parody.

Unforgotten Realms :D it's a shame Robert doesn't continue (well episode once in a half of year is not enough)

I stumble upon Yatzee Fable and the Darkness review from one of theYoutube channels I visit. Once he posted the Escipist link I soon follow although it took me a while to join (I lurk at the site for a while).

Two days ago, someone from another site posted a link to Extra Credits. I decided to sign up after watching some ZP, TBP, and the Top 5.

well the same as most people here zero punctuation.
I got linked to a video of his from a old wow based radio site run by a guy called Total Biscuit
I think he does videos on YouTube these days. He has a very similar style to Mr zero punctuation.

Same as you. Zero punctuation. Two friends of mine recommended that I should watch Zero punctuation so I started by watching his youtube videos. Then I went on here to watch the rest of his videos and I continue to watch them to this day. I stick around on here to post on the forums, but I also like watching Extra credits, Escape to the movies, Unskippable and Top 5 with Lisa Foiles
Minus unskippable, this is my answer to a letter

Same as about half the people here I'd expect: Zero Punctuation

I found one of his (if not the) first review on YouTube: The original Fable (the lost chapters no less!) When I was looking into buying it. He then moved to the Escapist and I followed him.

And do not be fooled by my join date! I have been frequenting this site for a lot longer than the Rhymenoceros has been around! After a month or two I showed my friend ZP and he also took to it. A month or so after that he made an account and showed me the full joy of this site!

On a side note he also showed me P.R.I.A.T.E and got me to join. We were both regulars at one time. Sadly I've drifted away from P.R.I.A.T.E as most of my good friends have left or (including Mr.Wiggles) have been banned for small misdemeaners by the not so new Mods. You will be missed, Mr.Wiggles, you insane Ginger

I was watching ZP way before I came to escapist but what finally made me transition over here was when Kotaku put up their god awful new layout. Haven't looked back since and have grown to love some of the other shows (Extra Credits, Escape To the Movies, The Big Picture) as well.

G4TV starting showing bits of Zero Punctuation, leading me here, where I was able to mercifully obliterate G4TV from my memory......until now you asshole! Ugh, no! STAY AWAY MEMORIES!

A freind of mine posted the Big Pictue episode Combat evolved? on facebook. I dodn't agree with it (still don't) but i liked the sophisticated style and intelligence with which the whole thing was done. I started reading moviebob's blog and that led me to the escapist where I got hooked on Zero punctuation and then extra credits.

A friend of mine who came here for ZP (which I loathe) kept sending me threads from this site, and it seemed like a decent forum.

ZP brought attention to the site but Extra Credits and Escape to the Movies made me stay.
