Who does your favourite 'Lets Plays' on youtube?

For me it has to be this guy http://www.youtube.com/user/Kikoskia

He has a really good sense of humour and a natural way of presenting himself.

Luke Nuetzmann is probably my favourite, absolutely loved the Super Star Wars trilogy 'Let's Play' videos he did (starting here): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLWgbvMKVzs

His commentary is consistently funny and I find myself agreeing with a lot of what he says. His 'montages' for lengthy boss fights are hilarious. :lol:

I also like Lucahjin's 'Let's Play' vids, like her Ico ones starting here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KFtjclBya8

I find her voice extremely soothing for some odd reason, and could happily listen to it all day. :oops:

I watch way too many of these. I'm real picky about WHOSE videos I'll watch though. Seen way too many that think that humor = swearing. Or too many that think that there has to BE humor every 3 seconds so they never stop making jokes, most of which are bad.

Let's see, theres....

Deceased Crab, mostly random older games from him,

Jefmajor, pretty darn funny, this one, game choices are VERY random. Sure does post alot of videos. Does alot of Roguelikes.

Coestar, for Minecraft, since I'm a fan of that

HCBailey, for RPGs

and captnduck for when he does his Dwarf Fortress LPs occaisionally.

I watch loads, but there's two that stand out for me, I always watch every one of their vids. First guy is SeanSidious, the guy has me in stitches, I seriosly nearly wet myself laughing at his vids and he has a really good camera presence too! Here's a sample of him playing Super Street Fighter II:

SeanSidious SSF2 Gameplay

And the other is Almeu2011, he does a bit of everthing but it's his gameplay's that have my main interest. He has a really relaxing voice and then all of a sudden out of nowhere he'll make a cheeky comment or joke that catches you out of nowhere. He does around a gameplay a week, although sometimes he treats us to a full playthrough - mainly older Sega games too :). Here's a link to his most recent vid, he dared to take on the horror that is Back To The Future 2 on SMS after I set a high score challenge in my latest vid :lol: :

Not usually a fan of Let's Play, since it's been done to death by so many people. I usually watch all of TotalBiscuit's WTF is series, and I'll also watch gamefreakblog. A guy who I actually stumbled across by accident while searching for some stuff on Halo.

He's only got around 120 subscribers, but he comes across as a really nice guy. Gonna play some multiplayer with him one day. :P

Spoony's Let's play SWAT 4 series is hilarious. The team AI is the star of the show, they're dumber than the cops on Reno 911 :lol:

Ahh, I forgot Spoony. His The Thing playthrough was great, as was the FFVIII one.
