I liked watching Terraria videos more than I liked playing it. Maybe it was because it didn't live up to my expectations. It also depends on the person who plays the game.
Really? None. What games have stories that rival that of a good movie or show or novel?
Answer: none. What makes games worthwhile is the interactivity.

Anything I Wanna Be The Guy related. Also any Civilization game, I am terrible at them, but watching others play is always entertaining.
I like watching the Angry Video Game Nerd play the ridiculously hard NES games and get pissed off, but beyond that I'm all about playing myself.
Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, because they're beautiful games that I love to watch, but playing them myself would mean buying a console which I refuse to do. It would also involve me having to use a controller, which tend to cripple my hands.
I wanna be The Guy or anything that it inspired. Sure I beat the game (twice) but it's more fun to watch other people scream at a hard game than to do it yourself.
I bet Starcraft 2 is a pretty hot contender for many people, me among them. It all depends on the mood though. Sometimes I'm really itching to play it myself and sometimes I love to just sit back and let the pros do their thing.
Also, speedruns of almost any game tend to be pretty fun to watch.

people playing civilization. I mean I love playing the game but the strategys they use are awesome.
Yeah, they are pretty awesome. The problem is, as I said, I can't use a console controller. Not for long, anyway. I get crippling pains in my hands after a while, so unless they support a mouse and keyboard, I'm not ever gonna be able to play them. Besides which, I am certainly not going to buy a console just for two games.Rage4Kon said:
Gotta agree with that, I learned a good deal from watching those. I had a great one that I tried in a fantasy mod about assembling a frankenstein's monster and trying to give it every promotion in the game, inspired by others. Plus it helps that I am always boring and just go for science / cultural victory every game.enzilewulf said:
To some extent, Minecraft, because I'm not as creative as other people. And Starcraft 2 because I'm incredibly bad at it but it's still a good spectator sport.
