he actually looks just like a friend of mine. Even wears the same hat. |

Interesting, Yahtzee only linked to his interview a week or two ago, but I saw the show two months ago. |

I think he is pretty fine about that. I mean, he seems to actually think the new intro sounds good (not implying it doesn't) and as for commersialisation. http://www.youtube.com/user/yahtzee19?ob=4 |

He was actually born in Britain (I think), but moved to Australia. On topic, an interview with Yahtzee would be a good idea. I'd like to know where he comes up with all of his metaphors for his videos - some of them are bizarre to say the least. |
Muckraker Posts: 260 Joined: 21 Aug 2008 | i watched that interview, but it wasnt very good. I would want something moore escapist style. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1228 Joined: 4 Jun 2008   | yahtzee has a wikipedia page, why not check it out |
Copy Clerk  Posts: 63 Joined: 13 Sep 2008   | i want to interview because im like his biggest fan because he does make his graphics well and also he hates preety much anything and i like that |

You're not the only one. I wonder if he browses through the forums. |
Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 789 Joined: 27 Aug 2008  | I'd really like to have a beer with that guy, after seeing that interview. He reminds me of the friend everyone has that's clueless around people so is overly sarcastic, but is such a good person you want to help 'em get laid when you're out in a bar despite their occasional dickness. |

Well... true enough... but I was hoping for something more than 5 minutes. Pen and paper interview are usually a lot more ... informative... or contain a vaster amount of info than their video cousins. |

Shouldnt the escapist interview Ben Croshaw?
Zero Punctuation has become a highlight of my wednesdays.
I would love to learn more about him!
1. Is it hard to make a video before the week long dead line.
2. Is there ever a time where you really do not want to play the game that is assigned for your review?
3. ARE the games assigned? Or do you get to choose?
etc. etc. etc.
This thread is for you guys to post questions you want to ask the creator of Zero Punctuation.
Hopefully if this thread gets enough hits then perhaps the Escapist will eventualy get around to thinking about interviewingMr. Croshaw for us! :D
