Default "Let's Plays"

Many of you have likely heard and even followed a 'let's play' series, but for those of you that haven't, they're basically a video walkthrough series of a game done by a person who's familiar with a game and its secrets. They differ from conventional video walkthroughs in that they usually have commentary by the player, but they're basically the same and they've become quite popular on sites like youtube among others.

So, has anyone ever followed one or more? I'm a fan of Nintendocaprisun's, and 900redyoshi's work on youtube, and I'm thinking of doing my own (on Super Mario Sunshine and Jak & Daxter). Has anyone on here every actually recorded their own LP?

I just watch the ones on horror games for fun. Love to see people freak out at certain parts and jump with them, but I don't really keep tack on the person who makes the part or see the entire series.

I saw this one kid do one called "Let's play Earthworm Jim!" but he must not have been playing the original, due to the fact he could save and load whenever.

I actually enjoy NintendoCapriSun's Let's play.
Also Chugacconoroy or however you spell it.

I follow NCPS Majora's Mask Let's play. Hell of entertaining.

gamecoladotnet on youtube's walkthrough of Phoenix Wright, but I don't think they have played it before, but they know about it.

At least, every now and then they are surprised. But it is entertaining to watch.

Hell yes. I became a fan of NCPS by watching his MM playthrough. Chuggaconroy's awesome too from what I've seen. He does mostly RPGs, right?

I believe Chuggaconroy does Mostly RPG's, can't recall as much anymore. He did a Pokemon Green Leaf Let's Play? I think he's currently doing Mario Sunshine.

Does Vash count too? He does have some rather entertaining videos.

Never watched Vash. Is that the full user name? If so, I'll look him up.
