#oneaday Day 504: I Want Your Suggestions!

I've been kicking around an idea for a new video series, and I was hoping I could get some input from you lovely people on what to call it.

Essentially, it would be a similar format to Atari A to Z, but for more recent/current games. It would consist of a bit of opening background to the game in question, where there is stuff to say, followed by a 20-30 minute "guided tour" of a typical play session, highlighting how the game plays and some interesting things about it.

It wouldn't be a pre-scripted video but it wouldn't quite be a Let's Play either, in that it won't be an ongoing walkthrough of the whole game; rather, it would be a slice of the game that would allow people to decide if it looks like something that might appeal to them. I'm not planning on making it a definitive "review" or anything like that, because 1) I tend not to do that anyway and 2) different people have different tastes; rather I want to provide a quick tour of what you can expect from the game, from the perspective of someone who has spent some time with it (but not necessarily beaten it).

I don't know what to call this series. I want to give the series as a whole some sort of distinctive title so it can tie all the episodes together. I don't want to call it "Quick Look" because people will assume that's ripping off Giant Bomb, and likewise I don't want to go with "WTF Is…" or anything too similar, because that was TotalBiscuit's thing, may he rest in peace.

Something along those lines would probably work, though. I'm just coming up short on title ideas right now. Once I figure out a name for the series — perhaps with your help! — I'll probably try and pop this series in the weekly Wednesday slot formerly occupied by Warriors Wednesday.

So fire away! No idea is too stupid at this point. Think about something you'd be happy sharing with friends; "oh, have you seen the episode of [title] by Pete Davison, he talks all about that game".

I await an empty comments section with eager enthusiasm! 🙂
