Lets Play!

I was just wondering if any of you hade seen or heard of Lets Play! Vidieos, and i don't mean the horrid camcorder crap you get on youtube.
The idea is, you play a game.
You play a game in such a way that it is entertaining to the viewer, such as telling an ALERNATIVE story, Making fun of the game, OR creating mirth throgh the medium of inane panel comentary
Observe,
This, is a letsplay from a random youtube user


Note the bad sound, Cam-on-TV video, and lack of proper comentary

This is an example of a SomthingAwful Lets Play!, which are of mutch higher quality.

(whats with the no embeding Viddler?)

This is what happens to bad letsplays.
(try to hear the comentary under the mocking, it makes it worse)



Are we interested in making one/some?

So, lemme get this straight, How Not To Play Hitman is a Letsplay?

i would go for a cod4 letsplay

too bad i dont have teh fraps recorder or mic

or video editing software

fuck this shit

The How not to play Hitman vids are more like walkthroghs on the wrong way to play, and Fraps style software is not hard to get. If we did a walkthrough, it would have to have a reason, like we're fantastic at a game or we could do it pretending to be a charictor, of take the piis of a bad game.
I fave a game called just cause that while fun is kinda crap, if i can set up a stream, wecould talkabout it on skype as I play, then record it, edit it so it looks better, and we have a LP
What say You?

Sounds like a plan. But how to implement said plan?

buy fraps/use screen recording software/etc

DUUUH

oh and also have some knowledge of how to use video editing software such as premiere pro

lets all go to shines house and make love not war
