How To Title A Video?

I've Got It
This may seem like something that should be quite simple, yet it's probably the 2nd most important part of the video (the 1st being the content).

I'm going to be titling my videos as follows:
Minecraft: Triple Threat Ep. 1 / Dubai The Country

Now I've done it this way to try and differentiate myself from everyone else (whether it works or not is a different question) but I've also done it like this for a couple of reasons.

1. It states the title of the game played straight away.
2. The episode number will appear without having to mouse over the title to see more of it.
3. The name of the series is right there next to the game title.
I feel like the actual name of the episode isn't as important (VLOGS and other videos are probably different).

What does everyone else think about this?
 
Looks good. Make sure that you give all of your videos the same kind of title. That way people can easy recognize your videos by it's title. Also, it would be a good idea to put your channel name at the end, but that's just a suggestion.

I find titling this way makes it more clickable when you share on sites like Facebook and other places. You also want terms that people will search for in the title.

Click to expand...
It doesn't make me want to click the title. The stuff I click describes more of what I'm going to see. Here's the way I title my videos, these are some of my most viewed videos on my channel.

Munchito how would you word the title?
Because as I kind of mentioned above other categories of videos should probably be titled differently. I feel like someone
whose wanting to watch a Minecraft video will click on a video that has Minecraft in the title, and returning viewers will want
to see what episode number they're upto without having to click on the video to see.
 
I tend to put the minecraft version number in the title too, or mentions if it's modded. For instance on my vids I put - minecraft 1.8.8 - hardcore survival - Episode 1: getting started. I think gaming titles tend to be longer because we need to put more info in for it to be searchable. Or at least that's my understanding? Look forward to your series :-)
