Commentary


Thar

Recommended Posts

I'm sure you all know who Achievement Hunter, Yogscast, Game Grumps, and ScrewAttack are, right?
Well, if you don't, [s]kill yourself [/s]go watch some of their stuff. It's freaking hilarious.

But yeah, I didn't know where to put this, so here. Discuss video game commentary in general.
Also, this thread could be used to find people to form a group of your own if you so please.

I'd say JonTron is my favorite. The Yogscast just don't entertain me anymore.
[/quote]

Simon's still entertaining, in my opinion. His laugh is on my Top 5 along with DGeoff, Pewdiepie, Jontron, and Egoraptor.

As far as commentary goes for me...I'm...decent?
No, I'm actually terrible. But it's actually kinda funny to hear a recording of yourself b*tching at a game.

The Creatures. My god, I'm in love with their videos, especially SSoHPKC and UberHaxorNova's videos. Their videos have been able to make me laugh when nothing else could and they have made my day so much better numerous times. I love them, no homo.

I've actually been wanting to start doing some video game commentary on my YouTube channel, but I haven't had a chance to start doing it yet. Plus, I really don't know what I need to do them and everything so it'll probably be awhile if I ever do do them.

UberHaxorNova is hilarious, but what turns me off is the whole "TobyxPewdiexNova" war going on in the comments. It really pisses me off.

I have one video up of me playing the Helicopter game just to test out Hypercam. It's actually very good as far as video and sound quality. Syncs good too.

Yeah, those comment wars did get on my nerves, especially since I'm a fan of all of those people. Hell, it got to the point where they had to make videos saying to stop the wars since they didn't have a problem which each other, but I don't think it really helped. But, yeah, Nova is hilarious.

Really? Huh, I might need to try something like that then.

[color=#0000CD]This seems like the right section. :I[/color]

[color=#0000CD]My favorite game commentary easily comes from Roosterteeth (Achievement Hunter). They have me actually laughing the most (implying that otherwise I'm just sitting with a content smile on my face) and probably at the highest volume as well. I also watch Game Grumps, Northernlion (look up Poison Mushroom on Mac[/color][color=#0000CD]hinima's youtube channel), Two Best Friends, Spunkifyable, MMO First Looks At on MMOHut (which would include Spunkify), and admittedly Kaggy every so often.[/color]

[color=#0000CD]Also, I don't think I'd mind doing video game commentary. Could be fun. Especially if I were to do it with Raine. We already get skype calls going when playing Guild Wars 2 or League of Legends together.[/color]

[color=#0000CD]You only need to call him Geoff. Isn't DGeoff just his gamertag? Nobody calls Michael MLP Michael.[/color]

I'd pay to see that. Do either of you have a Youtube account or plan on making one?

I've wanted to do commentary, but right now I'm a broke college student (which I think is a mostly redundant phrase).

Yapster headsets (the kind I use) are only like $15 at Walmart.
So far, they work exceptionally well.

I have a Turtle Beach headset I use for when I play PS3 online, I think they might work or something if I ever decide to do commentaries.

Besides the Creatures, I also regularly watch SeaNanners, penguinz0/Cr1TiKaL (I'm sure he is considered a video game commentary guy), Hutch, Chilled Chaos, PewDiePie, and CaptainSparklez. I know there are more I watch, but I can't think of them right now and I don't feel like signing into my YouTube channel to see who I am subscribed too.

[color=#0000CD]We both have one (I even got one for stuff like this) but nothing is on them and in the case that we do it'd probably go on his account since I'll probably never put anything on mine.[/color]

[color=#0000CD]I'll probably need some pretty good ones. I have other plans other than stuff I'd ever possibly do with Raine. But that's good to know nontheless.[/color]

I've done a bit on my channel. Although it would be nice to get a better graphics card for my PC so I can record at max res, and a capture card for my PS3. Can't really afford either at the moment. My favorites to watch are Whiteboy7thst, WoodysGamertag, PewDie, Cry (ChaoticMonki), Nova, MinnesotaBurns, and Syndicate.

I'd probably listen to more if the circumstances were different, so I main Matt and Pat from TBFP. As Big Bro would say, [color=#0000CD]They have me actually laughing the most (implying that otherwise I'm just sitting with a content smile on my face).[/color]

Occasionally, I'll look up some pewdiepie stuff.

Anyway, I WISH I could do commentary, but not only am I not very happy with my voice, but I never have things to talk about. It'd mostly be me sitting their rambling about the weirdest stuff.

When I play games, I'm either completely silent, or mumbling about something that no one else knows about. ._.


Oh, yeah. Woolie is also a cool dude.

[color=#0000CD]No. Dude no. No. Dude. Dude. Your voice is awesome. >: O[/color]

[color=#0000CD]I don't know anybody who talks constantly while they're playing video games alone for simple pleasure. Although that'd only really be me seeing as how I don't know how others are when they're playing games alone for their own amusement. So at least when I play I'm pretty much the same way.[/color]

I would've sent in one of my fails if I didn't accidentally quit too early. I stuck a damaged banshee with a Plasma grenade and proceeded to highjack it. The old pilot survived, and I suicided.


Oh, yeah. I also like ChimneySwift at times.

[/quote]Out of anything I've ever played, there are only like 2 I'd ever comment on.
1. A game today in CoD, the first enjoyable one in a long time, where 2 members on our team, including myself, got Juggernaut. We Dominated Domination.
2. Borderlands 2. Because I want to tell a robot to shut up.

I enjoy watching LPs with my favorite LPers being the 3 in the TheRunawayGuys. I would actually like to do them, but between my horrible skills with technical stuff like that and my hatred for my voice in recordings its not something I see happening. I can dream though.

Outside of video games I also enjoy watching a handful of MTG pros commentate while they play.
