Now that Xbox have launched their shiny new apps and we’re able to watch our favourite Youtubers go large on the big screen, I’ve found myself settling back and reacquainting myself with some of my favourite Let’s Players. I have a special place in my heart for people who make Let’s Play videos, and there’s nothing more amusing to me than watching, for example, someone take their virgin voyage on Dead Space’s Ishimura, or step into the world of Silent Hill for the first time. I love to watch firsthand experiences as key plot turns are revealed and short of peeking through other people’s windows at night (something of a social faux pas, I’m sure you’ll agree), Let’s Plays really are the best way to see it.
So, my question today is …
Community Q: have you used the Youtube app on your Xbox yet? If so, what did you watch and why? And if you watch any Let’s Players on YouTube, share your favourites with us!
Tell us your thoughts – and your reasons behind it – right here in the comments! Or how about joining our forums and talking about it over there? :)
Got an idea for a future Community Q question? Drop us a line and tell us about it!
I am a huge fan of let’s plays, some of my favourites being 666theheartless666 (Our good friend Mr Steve!), and Northernlion. In terms of more original video-game content I have to give it to the guys at ContinueShow, each week the provide incredibly funny gaming-related videos, well worth checking out!
