I use The Escapist as my news source for most game-related stuff and it works pretty well. They have a new 'issue' every Tuesday with four or five new articles which are generally of a pretty decent quality, some of which have been incredible, some not so much... it largely depends on the topic being addressed.
I don't think it's any secret that they're famous for Zero Punctuation and I don't think the site gets that many hits on any day besides Wednesday, but there's definitely more to it than that.
More on topic, I enjoy Unskippable... it's a bit hit and miss at times, for a while a lot of the videos were just boring but there's been some hilarious ones in there. I think my favorite video series on there is There Will Be Brawl, though, despite the relatively poor acting.

I've been watching unskippable for a while, and it's quite good. They fail at it sometimes, but mostly they get me to laugh at points - it's not hilarious, it's witty. I think there's a recognition to it as well - they have some recurring jokes ("that was the third time I died"), so I guess you'd have to watch it for a while to get some of it. But I can absolutely see people not liking it, the style is very slow and dry, and if it doesn't hit, it falls way off.
two minutes is a bit little to say "this sucks", though.
