Poll: Nazi Zombies & Youtube - Boyfriend and Girlfriend

[Barry Tannam]

I'm thinking of making a playthrough on the youtubes of the zombie maps in Call of Duty with boyfriend and girlfriend commentary.

want to know what you guys think of the idea.

Fyi: they have a tendency to rage when they fail. and they will. alot :3

Sidenote: From what people have been saying, ill clear up some misconceptions.
I'm never going to try and hold this series up on the presence of boobies, this is gonna be a collaboration of two really funny people just doing what they do. All about the content.

Seems like it'll be trying to sell itself on the fact that there's a girl there.
Honestly, that's how most gaming shows with girls in seem. Sort of like, yeah, we have this footage, but we also have A GIRL! BOOBIES EVERYONE, BOOBIES!
Doesn't sound like a great idea to me.

I beg to differ. There are a fair few girl Let's Players and CoD Commentators that don't play on this.

GirlOnDuty is one for example and ShenaniGUNS also does something similar to the OP with her own CoD gameplays.

As long as the two of you enjoy doing it go for it. I like the sound of one person being pretty rage-prone as it leads to interesting commentary. I'd say go for it.

honestly it doesn't really matter one way or another. if you have good commentary, and if people like you, it will be successful.

Hazabaza1 -

well, its your opinion, but I don't think merely mentioning the presence of a female is enough to say the idea is being sold on that fact.

perhaps, the only thing that sets the series apart in theory is a female, but i have far greater plans, so don't think for a moment the series will be empty of good content

As long as the chemistry's good you could be doing a commentary with your right hand (as opposed to your girlfriend...*cough*) and it would be entertaining.

Like others have said, don't try to sell it on the fact that there's a girl. Far too many commentators do that.

Only one question: Are you two funny? I don't mean, do you guys yell a lot and shit, but are you both genuinely funny?

Its not me personally doing the series, it will by my brother and his girlfriend,
the reason I got the idea is I watched them play and thought I must share them with the internets.

Whether they are genuinely funny, is up to you guys.

Make sure to have high quality sound and video.

Beyond that, it really depends on the charisma of the players.

Good luck, be sure to post a link if it is made.
