Let's Play...

Who here watches Let's Plays? I was surprised how entertaining watching others play videogames could be. That is, games that have a progression. I hate watching people play competitive online games.

My favorite Let's Player is a guy named 666theheartless666, primarily for his cool British accent. Other than that, I like to watch l0rdvega, though he seems to have gone on some sort of hiatus and doesn't seem to like communicating with viewers at all.

So, what's a Let's Play? Well, people record themselves playing a game and provide commentary. It might not sound that entertaining but I like it. There are tons of 'em all over Youtube.

Anyone else like to watch these? Or has someone here even made their own?

I'd watch the angry nintendo nerd because he's hilarious. Not quite the same thing but still. He's awesome.

Eh I watch Darksydephil, not lets play but similar.

I know he is a bit of an *** but I don't care.

gnrfan5000, he did a LBP lets play, and I also watch his 2 comedy partners-in-crime, Coovee and Warbot90
BoogyMushroom as well.

:SH:

I watch SSohPKC and Helloween25. SSoh does all the big releases, and Helloween does horror games. :)

I've actually been wanting to do a lets play, and I can do one, I just don't know a good game to do or have the time to do it. I may do one for LBP2 :o

My friend knows somthing that is a itouch app (Im sure it has it s own website) where you can actually watch people play different games live, :o

i watch AVGN but i guess that reviews not lp's but i watch vash12349 on youtubby he's great and is really funny he also did a co-op lp' of lbp with a guy named yoshi and he's hilarous too soo yea.......................

short answer: yes

lp' means let's play

It's kinda hard to watch LP's anymore because of the recent Youtube hacking. NintendoCapriSun still isn't back!

I watch SlimKirby and l0rdvega. :)

Yeah i watch them, it's entertaining
I get them all from here: http://lparchive.org/LetsPlay/
Not trying to advertise or anything, just as a place to start for LP newcomers

Chuggaconnroy is the only way to go for me.

Yeah, i watch a few of em, sadly, none of em ever play LBP for thier vids:rolleyes:

Lyrax's lets play of Shadow of the Colossus. Not "entertaining" but one of the most insightful, intelligent and wonderful game commentaries I've ever had the pleasure of viewing.

I too liked lOrd vega's oblivion LP. I'm currently following Keiri's lets play of Silent Hill 1. Once Valve fixes the extreme graphics bugs with Half Life 2 that came with the Orange Box update I plan to try my hand at an LP of that.
