Every single person who I've shown Zero Punctuation to has loved it, provided I can convince them beforehand that a video review of a game can possibly be funny...
Now, whenever I hear the words "Force Feedback," I await the word "Codpiece."
So yes, Zero Punctuation definitely deserves the viewers it gets.

When I played 5DAS for the first time, I paid special attention to that bit at the end of the black magic book: "WARNING: the summoning of a wraith will often bring forth other unquiet spirits, who wall haunt those who hold their possessions". Once I read this, I imagined the ending of the game would run along the lines of Trilby summoning and destroying Defoe, but in the process summoning a bunch of other ghosts who Trilby stole from in the past, who would then get their revenge on him somehow, or kill him or something. It kind of hindered my solving of the final puzzle as I was so convinced that this would I happen I didn't pick up on the hint it was actually meant to convey.
I still think that would have been a better ending.

It's not his fault. If you're a woman and you're within 10 meters of a computer running a game made by Yahtzee, the sheer potency and virility will make you pregnant within moments.
Hot damn. Now I can have his babies without having to go "down under."
Anyway, I'm not at all surprised at Zero Punctuation being second only to Penny Arcade. I mean it's... Penny Arcade. Of course THEY'D be first. They should totally discount them from the running because they're a household internet name by now.

Not everyone thinks Penny Arcade is that great.
And I have to say that Mister Homosexual in Space is the best euphemism for Mario ever.

As far as Penny Arcade goes, it doesn't matter if everyone likes them or not. They have enough publicity to be a household brand of cereal. Delicious cereal. Yahtzee's would taste better though. it would taste like bitter and angry criticism.
And I totally agree with that second statement.

Mmmmmm cynicism'ios I’d buy those, they would taste like sour grapes and you would use vodka instead of milk.
Penny Arcade is a bit hit and miss with me but either way they're a million times better than CAD. ZP is more or less the best entertainment I can find on the net.
