Your Favorite Let's Player

[LGC Pominator]

Archmage Melek is pretty damn funny, I love the XCOM and FTL letsplays he does

Every lets play Achievement hunter does is pretty much guaranteed to be hilarious

Robbaz King of sweden gets an honourable mention because Walrus is sat next to me... staring

I've never followed a Let's Player or finished any Let's Play--or come even close. I very much enjoy Jesse Cox on TGS Podcast, but I can't finish one of his Let's Play videos. His humor mixed with a blind Let's Play doesn't gel with me, it gets tiresome quickly. I've tried to watch a few others, and I intend to try Two Best Friends if I ever remember they exist while I'm on YouTube.

The only Let's Play I intend to watch to completion is Giant Bomb's LP of Persona 4. That was hilarious. I watched the first hour or two I've played of P4 and I had a better time watching them play it than I did on my own. I stopped when I caught up for spoilers sake. But, when I get through some other stuff and have some time, I intend to play P4 on every odd day, then watch what I've played through on Giant Bomb the following even day.

My favorite let's players are Chip and Ironicus. I find them hilarious, and they do really good on the production side of things. Or..one of them does, I guess.

Their style seems to be my favorite, the expert and the new guy. Seems to work perfectly for games imo.

These two guys are brilliant. I love their banter, they are the epitome of sidetracking often. Heheh

 

[Excludos]

Spoiler Warning.

They have a good mix of humor and talking about the good/bad parts of the game as they go along.

 

[scorptatious]

Well Two Best Friends are certainly up there. Those guys are hillarious.

I also like:

HCBaily
SlimKirby
TheRunAwayGuys
HappyWaffleGaming
Dshban

Those are all off the top of my head. I know I'm missing a few people.

Severe lack of Sp00nerism...
I love him because he's fucking hilarious and he's pretty good at games
And the LP style I prefer is live commentary like all The Creatures

 

[recurve6]

Well my favorite let's players used to be Slowbeef and Diabetus, but they haven't really done an LP in a long time. So..

Basically this. The Beef & Betus, Chip & Ironicus, Proteus & Suspicious, Psychadeliceyeball, Baldurk, Dave_O....generally most of the SA Goons.

jefmajor,

billy mc


The runners up bracket
the runaway guys come close, but some of there stuff is just loud obnoxious screaming, see little big planet.
Proton john, UPLOAD FASTER DANG IT. should have made a very bad joke there, i will refrain....
chugaconroy (sp? honestly not bothered to look that one up), i just dont like the games he lps some times, or just dont want to spoil them for myself when i finally get round to playing them, his lps are good, watch the mario rpgs and enjoy, but well you know how it goes.
and alot of others


ones i used to like and hate

deceased crab, his stuff just got old, i mean very old. Hes doing another run of la mulana for crying out loud, would he just get over the dang game already.

 

[joecool5000]

GameGrumps, ProtonJon, Niichts, and Jerma985. That is all.

GameGrumps just freakin' funny, ProtonJon just sounds intelligent and funny at the same time. Niichts and Jerma985 make my favorite shooter videos (mainly TF2 content)

Also SeaNanners and Hutch make some pretty great videos sometimes. Especially their early Trouble in Terrorist Town videos (they're the best gameplay videos on Youtube like ever).

I love watching Best Friends Play, but my absolute favourite is a English guy called Heartless (or 666theheartless666).

The lets play that got me hooked on his stuff was this'un:

His best let's play was Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth. His sanity seems to just drain away towards the end of the game because it's so terrible.

Used to like Tobucus, but his voice has got on my nerves, he's not very funny anymore and he only ever seems to play Minecraft or Happy Wheels nowadays :/

Yay! How nice to see another person that enjoys/knows 666theheartless666!
I love his LPs because he's so fun, and random (although that sometimes gets on my nerves, because he causes his own death many times (see Dark Souls for this).
I don't think I have a particular taste of LPs, since I also like RoahmMythrill (Perfect Runs Buster Only Megaman Games - and other games, like Silent Hill and Secret of Mana), whom is very professional about his LPs, does quite a research for them, when it's interesting.
It also came to my knowledge about 3 or 4 months ago about the Runaway guys, which is a combination of Chuggaconroy, Protonjon and NCS, most of the time. I like to watch they interact while playing (it made me miss playing with other people and how fun it could be).

Here's one Perfect Run of RoahmMythrill:

His first Nightmare Boss (or second, if you count Elec Man).

The amount of PewDiePie fans depress me greatly.. Maybe I should get a recording program and play Slender while yelling about rape. PewDiePie is to youtube what Honey Boo Boo is to The Learning Channel.


That said I don't watch Let's Plays, I watch Game Grumps, but their very much not a Let's Play. I watched Yahtzee do a few let's plays, that was fun. I do have a friend who does let's plays by the name of TehCrazGaming. Go watch him on the tubeyous

 

[verdant monkai]

This guy has a certain rustic charm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TgBQFP81aQ&feature=g-user-u

I tend to not watch lets plays though unless I cant find a walkthrough, because I feel it is a waste of time. Why would you watch someone play video games, when you could just play them yourself, and if you cant play it dont bother watching it as games are meant to be played not watched.
No problem if you really enjoy watching others play games though, as long as you dont make me watch you.

I watched a few episodes of TheAuzzieGamer playing Hitman Blood Money yesterday that were entertaining and informative all at the same time which was a bonus for me.

I've been watching a guy called Stratafyre from SomethingAwful do an LP of Bungie's Oni which is pretty entertaining as well.

Lastly DeliciousCinnamon's LP of that Vietnamese Pokemon Crystal is pretty entertaining if for nothing other than the horrible Engrish that seems to make up most of the games text.

 

[jollybarracuda]

Tobuscus is the only LP guy that i can really sit down and watch on a consistent basis. I enjoy how he puts a clear effort into his LPs to keep them entertaining, not just saying what he's doing in a monotone voice like many other LPs, and i appreciate the fact that he avoids swearing. I dont have a problem with swears, but it seems like a lot of other LPs are just someone saying "shit, fuck!" every five seconds and it gets a bit grating. Also, it's a small touch, but his audio quality is really great. A lot of LP channels have awful audio quality, which really detracts from the video, but his LPs have really good audio consistency.

Two Best Friends are hands down the funniest to watch though, at least their one-time 20 minute videos. Their true LPs are still damn funny, but i dont really have a preference for the games they play so i dont get too invested in them.

Game Grumps are a different thing for me. On one hand, their absolutely hilarious. On the other, i feel like i'm just an outsider creeping in on two friends playing a game, as they talk about friends they know, things their working on, etc. For the most part I like their stuff though.
