It's kind of 50-50 I guess. It's more just kind of a tribute to a game I really loved growing up but it is intended to be funny. I'm going to try to record some more narration (with a better mic) tomorrow, so hopefully I'll have a second one up before the weekend that will definitely be more humorous.

I was thinking about that actually, but I'm not really sure what the 'rules' of a Let's Play are and I'd also be concerned about having loads of dead air. I like to think of the next one as kind of like a mini-Let's Play -- like what would be the 'greatest hits' if this was an hour long instead of 7 or 8 minutes.
What's the difference between a Let's Play and gameplay and commentary? |

Maybe I'm speaking out of my ass, but I think Penny Arcade is really big on the "Let's Play." Someone makes a thread with that in the title and the title of the game and then give a rundown of it to some extent. The intention is to get a group of people playing through it at the same time which usually harbors better discussion.

I'm pretty sure it's (or it started as) a SomethingAwful thing I just have no idea what it is really.

A let's play is when someone uploads video of them playing through a game beginning to end and records commentary over it. Usually associated with a forum thread.
A gameplay/commentary is the same idea, but isn't an entire game. For example, they're most popular with COD multiplayer matches. |

hey Ryan that was kinda awesome
looking forward to seeing what you do with the format I want you to use me, to make yourself feel good. And I'll do the very same for myself; And when cutting me for what I've done to you feels better than using me for your own sake, we'll talk about having kids. |
