I like watching videos like this.

I like pretty much everything, especially since I'm subscribing to a lot of The Creatures

You have "other" twice...

I like watching trailers for new games to see if I'll buy them or not. This includes all kind of trailers, launch, gameplay, multiplayer etc.

Hopefully i've explained it better in my edit

I Defo like watching Trailers For New Games and Lets Plays Kind of like this

When i get bored I watch Captain Sparklez

I voted for new game/mod highlights and x2 others.

Others #1: Cutscenes
Some games have very cool cinematics, and rather than playing through the game to see them again I just look them up on youtube.
In a way, this goes for cool game music, too, even when I'm unsure whether this actually qualifies as a "gaming video".

Others #2: Random, Silly Fun
Basically, stuff like this:


(do check out his channel )

Let's Plays are fun to watch, especially for a game that might have a decent story but that you don't want to pay for, or as a way to scout the game out before purchase.

I also watch guides for League of Legends, as well as recorded matches for LoL and DotA2. Used to watch a lot of Starcraft as well but not so much anymore.

A mix, I watch some Let's Plays, championship games of LoL, some mod videos if I'm curious about the particular mod, occasionally gameplay (there's a LoL video out there with me on the opposing team ) and even stuff like Coolyo posted.

I like to watch castings of games like Company Of Heros and such, but I also watch trailers from time to time

Cool, you you prefer playthroughs with or without commentary?

I just watch most stuff the game station and it's members (totalbiscuit omfgcata starcrafthusky etc.) put out.

I love watching tournament matches for starcraft 2 (yet I hate playing it. )

I watch WTF is....., DotACinema, and stuff like that. Also, Lore in a Minute.

I'm partial to a bit of the Angry Joe Show myself. His review of Star Wars:Kinect had me weeping tears of laughter.....

Whatever this is, this is the greatest.

Let's plays done by Jessie Cox or Wowcrendor.

I also only wath WTF is by Totalbiscuit.

Then I watched some AAR reports of StarCraft II.


I like Save as awesome:

HMV hell. Halo scenes set to popular music, always makes me laugh.

I like COD commentary and walkthrough of new games to see if I should buy them or if I get enough by just watching the game be played.

I like watching Starcraft 2 replays, even though I have no interest in actually playing the game. Husky Starcraft and Lag TV are who I usually watch.

I still remember when SC2 launched. Was watching a tournament with a major player at the time (Huch? Something like that) and a commentator suggested he Mothership rush as a joke.

He did it and won.

I recently watched a match where zerg player stole a probe by use of neural parasite, and then built a protoss base and even a mothership to back up his fleet of overlords. XD

T'was hilarious.

10 FTW with Steve and Larson.


NUMBER OOOOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEE!!!!!

Oh yeah, those are hilarious.
I love their SR3 let's play xD

Yogscast (the main one, not any of the parasites), Captain Sparklez, Nova (he's kinda lost his edge, only his happy wheels videos, the Max Payne 3 playthrough and the Ones he does with someone called 'sp00n' are any good these days) and i have recently got into watching Pewdiepie as he seems quite funny.

I watch the Occasional 'WTF is?' but tbh TotalHalibut is a bit of a boring bugger. I've watched a couple 'Kootra' videos and although i really respect his no cursing rule his videos arent all that entertaining. Jesse Cox thinks singing randomly is an acceptable way to fill dead air which i find really irritating.

Does the Spoony Experiment count?

Look up TotalHalibut plays I wanna be the guy gaidon. 21 minutes of him being absolutely tortured hilariously.

No love for Red vs Blue? Guess it doesn't really count...

I watch some lets plays (Protonjon FTW) and some minecraft bits, as well as TF2.

Parasites? You're not talking about Sips, Duncan and the rest of the yogscast team are you?
