Of course! Otherwise I would have missed for example the Wipeout QL or the Darkest of Days Quicklook. I´ll watch everything that appears in the video section of the site.

I used to watch any that were posted but I stopped unless I am really bored. If I really don't like the genre I normally don't watch it.

Up until about a month ago I used to watch every single quick look they put up. Now, I normally will at least start a quick look no matter what game it is, but if I find the quick look boring about 5-10 minutes in then I usually just stop there and never go back to it. But keep in mind this is rare, I watch about 90 percent of them all the way through.


Though I will say this; I don't ever watch quick looks of DS or PSP games. I'm just not interested in handhelds and never have been, so I'm certainly not going to watch someone else play them.

I used to watch all the way through every quick look. Now I pick and choose what quick I watch and don't always watch the whole thing.

I try to watch all of them time permitting, find the ones im least interested in are also the most amusing and interesting. Always worth a look back through to watch the classics like farm simulator too, awesome stuff.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Yeah, I'm less inclined to watch QLs of games that I'm not at all interested in these days. I'll usually just watch bits and pieces of those to see if I like the gameplay or the story beats. But I used to watch every QL all the way through regardless. However, I still listen to every podcast, and whatever features and interviews they put up.

Oh, I'll also not watch a QL for fears of getting spoiled in particular games. Like, I didn't watch the Portal 2 QL, because I didn't want to see the entire beginning of the game only to play that same part like a week later.

Yup. Especially if Vinny is in it, he needs to be in more quick looks!

Yes, but if it's a game I'm not interested in I will skip a head or stop watching half way in if it's not at least entertaining to watch.

No middle option means no vote. I try to watch every quick look, but if it's not a game I'm interested then either it has to be sufficiently weird or the banter really good to keep me watching until the end.

I try to watch at least all the quicklooks, since they are constantly entertaining. Someone's gonna get mad at me, but I never listen to the bombcast. I just can't sit still to listen to the whole thing through. So I make up for it by watching all their videos.

I've probably watched every Quick Look done so far.  So, yes.

Yea.  Honestly, I watch quick looks as much for the entertainment as the information.

It's usually the games I have no interest in whatsoever that make the best Quick Looks. I'm worried about spoilers otherwise.

I watch every bit of original content. It's always entertaining, and often I find myself informed one way or another regarding a game I wasn't sure about.

Yup, I need something to watch while I eat. I don't really find myself actually interested in crap like The $1,000,000 Pyramid but it makes the time go by quicker.

Definitely.  I judge as I watch.  And many times I've been surprised.  I love QL.  IMO it's the real preview of a game.

What he said! I also always check out QLs of titles that  I have no idea what they could be.

Although I disagree and find Stacking to be fun.

Definitely. I try to watch all of the Quick Looks to see if a game I hadn't heard of or a game I had judged by appearances alone suddenly interests me. I've found out about so many great games thanks to Giantbomb and their awesome QLs <3

I do, but I usually zone out if the quicklook is nothing special.
