I really enjoyed this and thought it was funny. I laughed my ass off over the red ring of death bit.
Great stuff guys. Keep doing what you're doing.
I was wondering if you guys had a bricked 360 you used as a prop but then I remembered that a bricked 360 glows red, but a blinking red ring means problems with the electric feed. So congrats for plugging your 360 to a faulty plug to deliver it to us all.

You can't just dismiss criticism like this. The show's meant to be a comedy and some of us didn't laugh, at all. I actually got bored and found my mind drifting off which meant I had to skip back and watch it again as I hadn't been paying attention (considering the show's only about 5-6 minutes long that's something of an achievement). I'm not just hating the show for the sake of hating it, I liked the previous two episodes, on the whole this series definitely appeals to my sense of humour, but this episode was an epic fail for me; slow, predictable and boring.BlueInkAlchemist said:
I get the jokes, I see why they're supposed to be funny and why they probably sounded funny on paper I guess it's just the delivery that didn't work for me. It's a well produced, well written show though so don't think I'm just hating, I just didn't like this episode.
Again quite a bad episode, with zero laughs or even a small smile on my part.
The Escapist has so much good videos... Drop this and try something else.
Last time I watched it, anyway.

Well... that sounds kind of like a burn... A really big one... and I am inclined to agree.Coliumbos said:
Sorry if you liked game dogs.
OP:
I appreciate what they are going for, but they fall flat.
EDIT:
As a matter of fairness, I will illuminate. I understand all of the jokes they are trying to make. The problem is, the jokes are done, approached poorly, or are for the wrong audience.
Example: trying to spoof Big Bang Theory might work if BBT was something that inspired the ire of gamers. However, I would say that BBT is something that slips rather nicely into the "intelligent humor" niche that gamers tend to ENJOY! I am not going to say that this show needs to go. I will say that they need to identify their forte.
Haha too cute, charming work guys! Can't wait to see what other madness you have in store for us!!!
I thought this episode was actually the best so far. I didn't exactly get much amusement out of the previous two, but this one I enjoyed quite a lot. All of 'Pillow Quest' was funny, 'The Big Bang Theory' parody was pretty funny (even if I do like TBBT). I thought that the Red Ring sketch was the weakest of the three, but it was still significantly better than a lot of stuff I saw in the first two episodes. I thought that the title was actually the best part of the Red Rings sketch - 'Overanalyzing the Obvious', great stuff. And the "the rings still glow among us" line was also quite amusing.
Overall, this was a much better episode, probably because there were more skits, meaning we didn't have to endure the bad for long, which meant that we were more willing to accept and enjoy the good. A definite improvement.

I think I like your fast jokes the best. But judging from the comments, the prefrences go 50%my way 50% the other way. So whateves.
