"Let's Play ... "

[kilaj1]

So I recently become addicted to a set of videos on Youtube known as "Let's Play",

Basically its you watching a play list of someone playing a game...boring you say? to some yes, but when these guys play old classic games that I never got to finish years ago, and even some new games, its pretty entertaining. Of course some of them are hella long...one spanned across 150 10min videos. Most offer pretty good strategies (starcraft 2)


A few good ones I've subscribed to are

The one im watching now is Let's play final fantasy 12, guy shows you have to power level basically as soon as you start the game...so far I've reached level 26 and I barely start the game (story line).

Yea these vids have been around for a good while. Nintendo even started a "NinBuzz" aka Nintendo Buzz thing on youtube to give video walkthroughs and such for their games. I like to watch some of them for their comedic value tho....some of those guys who narrate the vids are hilarious!

yea i completed this games really nice, how many people beat the stone thing which crushes u in the wall, gives no actual reward for beating it but if ur a pro u can, u die in like 3 or 4 turns, that battle was epic.. had to get unlimited limit breaker n kill it.

lol i dont reach anywhere in FF12...I think the furthest I've gone is the zone after you leave the castle (after you steal that stone). I never liked the combat system in 12, prefer 10's

I found out the 'let's plays' when I got stuck in the areas of Final Fantasy 10 where you have to use certain spheres to advance a dungeon. It's really just a video version of a walkthrough with the person playing giving a Narration of what to do when.
