The Spoony Experiment

Gamespot interviews Yahtzee, mentions TSE!

by Scarlett on March 22, 2008 · View Comments

In a recent interview with Gamespot, Ben “Yahtzee” Croshaw mentioned that I’m his favorite internet game critic. If you don’t know who that is, Yahtzee is a mad Brit who does the famous Zero Punctuation reviews on The Escapist, and he’s easily one of the funniest dudes around. You should definitely check him out!

Thanks Yahtzee!

Wow grats Noah :)
Quite the honor I think to be recognized by the only other reviewer of just a high rank of Snarkiness.

What the hell he likes Spoony but not the AVGN? Damn a +1 and -1 in one paraphrase. Still good to see your getting props from one of the industry’s finest!

Wow, this is indeed awesome news~! Hope that this aids you in some way. Even if its to stroke your ego. (Lord knows, we all need one of those every now and again).

Well I’ll be damned! That’s almost a dream come true! I feel like the AVGN is going to mention you.

Kadath February 12, 2009 at 9:19 pm

Awrsome. I love you both <3

Oh shit, that’s awesome. I bet he loved you tearing apart Final Fantasy VIII. Yahtzee is pretty damn awesome.

Gibson February 26, 2009 at 5:26 pm

Thats really awesome. That would make my life.

Orin March 14, 2009 at 9:24 pm

Awesome!
Yeah, you guys are pretty much the best around.

This interview is the reason I fell in geek-love with you over a year ago (a year?!?!). I love Yahtzee, but I some-word-greater-than-love you Spoony. You mentioned in your latest blog that you’d like to be on Yahtzee’s game show if it became a reality. I have to say however that I would be against a show featuring both you and Yahtzee. I am afraid that that combination would satisfy too many of my geek wet dreams and may lead me to die a very euphoric death. I just can’t take that chance.

P.S. I’ve gotten three of my friends addicted to you as well. My relationship with you is like my relationship with Herpes. I share the love.

God I fucking hate Yahtzee……oh well at least he knows a funny man when he sees it (but for real?Saying PA is the only good gaming web comic and everything else sucks?Fuck you)

Megafire April 20, 2009 at 11:35 pm

Yatzee’s pretty awesome indeed.

Rihards May 28, 2009 at 7:47 am

Maybe yahtzee will be fired from escapist because he reviewed game that has not been released and he will come to TGWTG page? :D
That would be awesome. Yahtzee is my 2. favorite reviewer.

Meshi June 12, 2009 at 7:06 pm

That’s awesome, you guys are both a main staple of my internet entertainment.

Yahtzee bows to the Spoony One. This proves Spoony is the second coming! All hail to him, the Spoony One!
