Wow, this topic was derailed almost immediately. I liked the initial video though, I thought it was funny they kept calling the street people of hong kong "urchins".

Here is the general consensus concerning the commentary vs no commentary on lets plays: I have played the game - commentary. I have not played the game - no commentary. BOOM!

Jesus christ, what kind of request is this? haha sarcasm obviously, but no one in their right mind could compile that list, I would struggle with the list of games I HAVE played much less the ones I havent, good one! :lol:

This thread is real strange.

I don't see either voiced gameplay or non-voiced gameplay as superior to the other. It's all about context. Sometimes I prefer it without. Typically if it's a game I'm interested in I choose no commentary unless I know it well and I'm curious as to opinion on said game. But hey, I'm not always in a typical mood. Some commentators are better than others generally merely because of personality. On the other hand, some commentators are fairly rubbish yet know about certain games/franchises specifically, so even the general rule isn't infallible.

There's my two cents.

As for this particular Let's Play, they make mistakes, they're overall pretty casual, but I don't think they're horrible and they seem fairly friendly, but just in case let's dox them and kill their close family to protect Shenmue

Off topic: Does anyone know how to put a line through posted text? I settled for making that last line tiny but I really wanted the line through.

The brackets that are used for commands like bold and italics means this forum should be using BBCode, and the command for strikethrough text is usually [s] and [/s].

[s]It doesn't seem to be working though so I don't know if it's supported on this forum unless I'm just doing it wrong.[/s]

Edit: It looks like strikethrough isn't included in BBCode by default.

The level bar is also present in the Dreamcast version but viewable through the VMU's screen.
