Poll: Do you watch Let's Plays?

[erbkaiser]

I prefer Let's Plays to demos, if I can find a good one. Seeing a real person* play the game is a much better way to learn about it than to rely on game journalists' opinions or publisher-made demos.

*more or less

Only Muteddough. All hail the king of LP, Muteddough.

 

[GreenDevilJF]

I watch Helloween4545 frequently.

 

[Xorghul]

LP's I've watched? Not many. LP's I've read. Very many.

 

[Kaymish]

of the few LP's i have seen the necroscope's ones are my favourite

 

[Julianking93]

Nah, I don't like commentaries while I'm watching a game.

 

[direw0lf]

2 of my favs are Skorch82 and DavetheUsher both can be found on youtube or on their own site called www.gameanyone.com

Skorch82 did all of fallout3 including the DLC and Dave has a desert bus round trip with some friends on skype

 

[King of the Sandbox]

Ok, I finally got up the courage to try my hand...

...and even more courage to show you guys.


What do you folks think?

I watched all of the Spoony One's LP's but that's about it.

 

[RaZor921]

I watch a couple, my favourite one has to be Spoony's one for SWAT 4, it's hilarious how irritated he gets by it.

"Sir, you're in my spot"

Other than that, I'll watch maybe one or two, but that's the only one that comes to mind.

I love that LP, i also watch this guy, UltraJMan, on YouTube. Right now he's LPing I Wanna Be The Fan Game

 

[KitsunetheFox]

Paw's King Quest V.
Linkara's Star Trek: Elite Force
OMGeezy's I Wanna Be The Guy
A few others I can't remember.

LP's are horrible. Like I said before, they are generally nothing more than nasally dorks providing awkward commentary and repeatedly saying "what the FUCK?" when things in the game don't go their way.

They are awful and I'd rather just read a walkthrough.

 

[xHipaboo420x]

He may be the go-to choice these days, but my favourite is SirRonLionheart. His LP's for Sonic The Hedgehog demonstrate true gaming skillzzzz, but also show us the ins and outs of the game, which is what a lot of LP-ers forget is the actual point of the video.

 

[StarStruckStrumpets]

Love Lord Vega's Silent Hill series on youtube.

Yay! Yeah, Vega's vids are awesome, it is a shame he's given up on LPs.

I like watching them as it is funny to hear what the player is thinking. This is especially interesting when they are doing a Blind run.

 

[Nomanslander]

I always watch Over the Gun, one of the funniest on youtube if you ask me...=)

 

[UnmotivatedSlacker]

Cybershell13 did lp's on the first 3 sonic games and they were pretty funny and informative surprisingly.

 

[Nothankyou]

.

 

[Anticitizen_Two]

I watch them every now and then.

 

[UPRC]

I don't watch them. I find them to be fairly boring most of the time.

 

[The Spectator]

Paw's King Quest V.

YES. WATCH THIS. It has the best ending to a Let's Play. Even more funnier than the Spoony One's.
