There was a spectacular LP of The Moment of Silence a long, long time ago, but I can't seem to find it anywhere anymore. Which is a shame, because it was really funny and fits your description perfectly. Maybe if you have archives you can still find it? I don't know how these things work.

Hard Time is a little LP buried within another LP. MDickie is a horrendous independent game designer, and this LP covers his older prison...adventure?

Yeah :( Blame school. I'm graduating May 17th. Which means I'm comin' back on the LP scene in about a month!


In an effort to turn this into a post with content, Jamesman's Yakuza LP is awesome and is the only thing I've been keeping up with lately. It's not subbed though, so it's not particularly helpful to Peanut President...

But if you haven't watched Egomaniac's (subbed, VLP) LP of Fatal Frame 2, I suggest you do! It's in the LP archive.

BarkingSquirrel's Ghostbusters thread is definitely something you'd want to check out, then. He provides a lot of informative commentary about the game and its background information, and since he's doing it subbed, the game's own charm and great voice acting really shine through.

This is an old one but I love the quality and effort put into it. Typically still shots LP's are hard for me to get into, but this one was well done. Thank you Thuryl for playing this so I would not have to.

Suspicious' Heretic and Wugga's Quake threads where awesome as well; really impressed with how they man-handled the games and where also had enjoyable commentating voices (big thing for video LP's) and where great with talking through the game, mechanics, etc.

A while ago, someone was asking about good late night/insomniac LPs (I think it was jade star, but not sure and it doesn't really matter), and I've been watching Let's Play Demon's Souls. And man, it fits the bill perfectly. The game itself is contradictory in nature, it's extremely difficult, yet it's also a really subdued and muted experience. Squint tackles this game perfectly, with some expert play that makes the game look trivially easy, and provides very insightful commentary while keeping the tone soft and generally quiet. He's not afraid to shut up at moments and let the atmosphere of the game overtake you. It's also pretty long, allowing you to waste some long nights.

It is such a well done LP. The videos would have really suffered from multiple commentators or loudmouths, and would have been dreadfully dull with subtitles, so I'm really glad that somebody came along and did it right.

Thank you very much. I'm able to replace the missing images using this, so it shouldn't take long to edit it and publish it on baldurk's site.

[edit] It's going to be a good while before I'm done editing it. Entire updates without images that I have to extract the images from your file to restore. The first page only had three updates, which only had a total of five missing images. Nothing too major through.

Raar Im a Dinosaur's LP of System Shock 2 is pretty similar im tone. LP starts to get really good after the six or so video once Raar ditches the gimmick commentary to a style more like Khad's.
