Both of these web series are funny in my opinion. But i am not here to tell you what i think, i am here to find out what your opinion is. Which is a better Escapist show, Doomsday Arcade or Unskippable.

Welcome to the Escapist :D.

Versus threads are a big no-no here :(.

To answer your question, I have to say Doomsday Arcade (though I do love both) :D.

There both equally good. I don't see the point of picking between them. There both for the same site and they both come out on diffrent days.It's not like there competeing for views.

the reason they are being compared is because both were the winners of last years escapist video awards.

ZERO PUNCTUATION!!! Yahtzee is a god!!! Also, I don't really like Unskippable... Sure, I watch it, but it's because the first episode I watched (which is incidentally their latest, DMC4) was fucking hilarious, and I still am trying to find something remotely as funny... Unsuccessfully... Sure, it's good for a few giggles, but nothing LMAO-y...

I should say they are both just as good and it's possible to not have a perfered show, but that would make me a liar.

Doomsday Arcade by a mile, I love Unskipable, but it just isn't the kind of show I love.

I love doomsday arcade, but I love Unskippable more.

It would've been different if you were to compare Unforgotten Realms with Doomsday Arcade, since they're of similar "action-ish" genres. This is kind of like voting between MST3K and Die Hard.

...Or Pee-Wee's Big Adventure and Friday the 13th.

So... you don't like it... but you thought it was hilarious and you can't find anything even close to being as funny... but it's only good for giggles. Consider me confused.

On topic, I honestly can't choose. I love Unskippable because it is my EXACT sense of humor and I find myself doing the same thing they do to movies, shows and cutscenes. I find it to be much funnier than Doomsday Arcade. But...

I love Doomsday Arcade for a completely different reason. I love it because it is high-quality, original content. You never see that. It's epic and full of surprisingly non-cheesy action. It has all kinds of jokes only gamers understand, and it has a clever representation of all the games I know and love.

Wow, another Escapist related vs thread. That's what, 3 in the last half hour?

OT: I've never really watched Doomsday Arcade. I've been meaning to, but I just haven't gotten around to it.
I love Unskippable though. One of the three reasons I joined the Escapist actually....

hey be glad. i was considering a poll using all the videos in the series index.
Your name is... awful. Be more creative, other then just going to a site and saying it rules and using that as your name. Honestly *Chuckles*

Moving on, Dooms Day Arcade.

Funnier, and more work involved with it. It's just... awsome sauce :D

While I do like Doomsday Arcade, I have to cast my vote for Unskippable. I love that show. I love the great MST3K style way that they go about mocking these cut scenes. It is always great to hear.

Let me clarify then! The first episode of Unskippable I watched (DMC4) was hilarious. SO I thought "ow, this show must be funny". But every other episode I've seen wasn't even remotely as funny as DMC4. In fact, they were pretty much not funny at all (like I said - maybe a few giggles). I still watching it, hoping to find an episode as funny as DMC4 (that's what I meant by "trying to find something remotely as funny"), but no luck so far.
Hope now you're less confused.

Ah, now I see. Thank you for clarifying. That is kind of strange.

Unskippable, but I actually have never watched Doomsday Arcade before.
And that's why you're going to Hell. Doomsday Arcade is, in my opinion, the best series on the Escapist. Yep, including ZP.

Doomsday is OK but it just feels a bit too childish for me. It also kills the mood when all the extras are not over the age of 16. I mean in a zombie apocalypse there will be old people walking around too. That just breaks the suspension of disbelief. Unskippable is hilarious. That and ENN are probably my two favorite shows now as ZP has become quite dull.
