Now I'm sure most people were very familiar with the great narrative LP of that Travis343 did for Earthbound originally but I do want to highly recommend the more informative LP that leavemywife did recently. Also he's currently doing Mother 1 for those that might want to see what Earthbound had originally evolved from.

Does anyone have the complete DocFuture Lp of bible adventures? Daily motion has some, but it seems most of the videos aren't found.

I second this. They really do a terrific job delving into the details of Earthbound, and the thread is absolutely hilarious to read through, and gave us a lot of great original content (MAD DUCK).

I would put them on YouTube but since Dailymotion/Google took them down for copyright I'm sure they'd probably do the same. I'll see if I can send them to baldurk to maybe host on the archive.

Baldurk is cool so they should be rehosted on the archive via Baldurdash now. I also sent him a (slightly) cleaner and less artifacted version of Sonic 2 Special Edition than the one that was up before so that is rehosted as well.

This poster survived LPing Lunar: Dragon Song. Let's give her a hand.
Has anyone recommended the Dragon Quest V thread yet? Because it's pretty great. Tendales's added dialogue is spot-on, and the whole LP is charming as hell.

I'm driving with my mind!
I was watching those Bible game videos and thinking about the Sonic 2 Special Edition videos... no wonder, since they're from the same person. Both hurt my head to no end.

By the way, is it weird that I'm looking for a video LP of Rollercoaster Tycoon? I guess I'm boring or something, but I'd just like to watch something like that. I know I can't ask for it in the Request Thread, because I'd get booed out of the thread or something, and only screenshot threads show up in the master list.

SKA SUCKS
I'd think it'd be a little monotonous watching someone build roller coaster after roller coaster. Even with heavy editing, it isn't exactly a spectacularly entertaining game to watch.

The SSLP in the Master List listed as 'Ongoing' by Control Volume is a pretty funny read if you have archives however. Can't say much about the other ones, but I enjoyed reading it when it was still going.

Thank you very much, Mega64. I appreciate you helping out.

I realize that watching it would be real dull, but I just have no mind when it comes to creation and layout of such games. I'd rather watch someone that does play it while I simply watch, and not have to scroll through screenshots when the little animations of the game are something I enjoy.

Anywho, I love Deus Ex, but I never got the chance to play Invisible War, so I went to go buy it for 3 bucks only to find out this is one of the few Xbox games that isn't compatible with 360. So I'm looking for an LP that'll show off the game well enough with a decent emphasis on story since that's what I love most about the series. Any suggestions before I spend a few hours looking through YouTube?

I know SourceElement started one a while ago (http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3483987) but I think it was abandoned fairly early on. I honestly had heard too many good things about the story in Invisible Wars though.

There's a bunch on YouTube. I just don't want to sit through the opening sequence on 7 different videos and hope to figure out which one sucks the least.

Found a really awesome Human Revolution one (I've beaten that game), the guys style was fantastic, but he gave up after the second episode. Check out "theauzziegamer" for a look at how LPs of games like this should be done (I'd link if it weren't a pita on mobile). Humorous, informative, he fast forwards through sections where its warranted, and the best part is he shows off almost every possible route one could take to complete objectives.

Who are you to glizzy gobble El Vago's marshmussy?

I know Hoodi (I think?) did Invisible War a while back. The videos were all on Vimeo and are gone now, however I did back them up on my Viddler account. There's gradual desync in basically all of the videos but if you want to give it a try, they're here.

Yep, it was Hoodi, the original thread (with the ending videos linked to via his Viddler) is here.

I recently watched Vicas play Super Mario 64 with his feet, which was incredibly brilliant. That LP had mentions of Dazzling Addar's LP of DK 64, which, while not as brilliant, has still been pretty funny. I enjoy their style of commentary, their humor, and the fact that they play games I knew (or in the case of DK 64 at least had passing familiarity with) as a kid.

Going from there, any recs on what I should watch next?

Vicas' current Yoshi's Island thread is by the same crew. And if it's Vicas' commentary you like, Geop's dark souls thread.

They haven't really done anything else together. There was an abandoned Yoshi's Story LP on Dazzling Addar's YouTube account. You can also watch the Metroid Prime LPs, as those had Vicas in them somewhere. Other people mentioned Yoshi's Island.

Taking the term "Koopaling" to a whole new level since 2016.
If you want a good Vicas fix, his Star Wars Bounty Hunter LP was really good. I think it also features the usual crew and gives you a good look at a game that could have gone so many places...

Terminally ambivalent.

Addar is in quite a few of the Super Meat Boy race videos too, you might enjoy those. We just did a Mario 64 race with Vicas that should be up in a couple days too, that was pretty fun.

\/ Sorry, in the Meat Boy race thread. Check out the bonus races.

That one was my first LP and you can tell Addar, Bro Ent, and I were still figuring out the whole commentary thing, but I'm still pretty alright with it.



And the Mario race is just SM64, as far as I'm aware. Note that races can be a bit more clusterfucky on the commentary since there are sometimes a lot of people, though.

I watched the Bounty Hunter one after Mario 64 and DK64 and there isn't a huge gulf in quality, and race videos are beyond clusterfuck. Especially when there are more then 3 people involved.

Truth be told all I do in most race videos is A) Be pro as poo poo and forget there's a run button and B) make silly noises when I die. It is funny if you're into that sort of thing but it is not particularly highbrow.

Yoshi's Story is sort of in limbo at the moment but a comeback is not completely out of the question.
