Poll: Do you Unskippable?

[Ophiuchus]

I might occasionally mutter something like "for God's sake when will this end?" but as for any attempt at humour? No way, for the same reason that I can't really get into Unskippable itself - it's incredibly annoying when people talk over something you're trying to watch. Even if the cutscene is crap or I've seen it many times before, it's still annoying.

 

[ssgt splatter]

I'm...not...really sure if I do this or not. I try to leave that to the professionals.

It makes adverts so much more barable.

You haven't lived untill you turn the 'stop animal cruelty' adverts into takeaway menu adverts.

"This, is a dancing bear" 'meat pre-tenderised, very limited stock'

I lol'd, does that make me a bad man

 

[Paragon Fury]

After I've seen all the cutscenes for the first time, yeah, I start talking over them and trying to make them funny.

 

[Loop Stricken]

I have recently notcied that i am now talking over game cut-scenes, making puns, songs and general Unskippabole material. I find it great because I had a mate over watching me play against Jecht in FFX and i was dubbing over their voices and going on about Jecht wanting a Doughnut so badly that he can't controll himself, my mate was in stiches.

Anyone else now fell into this habbit? I highly recommend that you all try it!

I do this with entire movies.

 

[CK76]

Plenty of people do it. It's all an effect from too much Mystery Science Theater 3000 for me.

Bingo. No film is too bad to not be enjoyed.

Your question lets you redeem yourself i think ^_^
But thanks for the affermation on one of my ever unsung attempts at comedy.

Unskippable is a verb? I never knew.

It has been a verb ever since that 'medal' became a verb during the Olympics. And the same way that i have heard people 'zero punctuating'.

 

[LockHeart]

I'm going to have to try this at some point

 

[ShotgunSmoke]

I started to do this a couple of months ago. Now I find myself talking over any game - Far Cry 2, Resident Evil 5 and Dead Space were the latest amateur Unskippable riffs.

I suggest you to check out Rifftrax. It's like Unskippable, but about movies.

 

[sirdanrhodes]

I used to. Not so much since Unskippable started.

 

[child of lileth]

Not really. If a game is that bad, I just stop playing it.I might mock a game every now and then for it's cut scenes, but usually not unless I already played it.

 

[Drakeneo]

yeah... sometimes

 

[AlphaOmega]

Did that for ages, also I tend to watch quite a few LP's sometimes and some people are hilarious

(F/E the [Prototype.] one going on at SA now is great)

 

[Ren3004]

Yeah, I do it sometimes, in cutscenes and films. Especially if it's something I've played/watched before.

 

[Grayjack]

You need a sometimes option. I do it once in a while.

 

[gamegod25]

usually just if I've already seen it or it's just really bad.

 

[ManiacEskimo]

I've always enjoyed well done voice overs and/or snide/witty comments during movies or cutscenes or games. I'm not very good at it myself sadly :/ So I resist the temptation to do it unless I actually think of something really funny or witty, and if the right people are around.

Some of the intros Unskippable has covered that I have since watched in the actual game, just aren't as good without the voiceovers.

 

[Lowbreed]

It is the only way to play video games, since good writing is as hard to find as bad graphics these days.

Here, let me introduce you to the wii...

OT: I do sometimes with friends around, but I barley play games with cutscenes or something or other with friends so it's mostly the fifa commentator.

 

[Glover09]

I've been doing it for years.
