    May I suggest* you perform drive by shootings, instead of hit and runs on your brutal enemy, the hot dog vendors and their suicide bombs aka propane tanks. :P

    * Not really a suggestion, well aware all gameplay footage is good and finished since you said it in your commentary.

    Well it is, but like I said I'll record the other stuff like optional missions as well. I doubt I'll be going for 100% as no one wants to watch me drive around finding 200 pigeons but the assassination missions and that sort of thing should be okay.

    Annoying endless fetch quests and collectables?

    Sounds like a montage!

    I love when people montage stuff like that in LP's actually. It gets the point across about things while not actually forcing people to sit through the entirety. If no music from the game fits the bill, go with Benny Hill music.

    The way I see it is, you get to use Yakety Sax once in your LP "career" and I already did that with SR2. I'm not gonna waste my time with the pigeons, or at least I'm not going to record it and put it in a video for commentary, because I can't imagine how interesting watching me shoot 200 birds would be, even in quick cuts.

    The other missions, like Most Wanted and such, are probably the more likely candidate for post-story content videos.

    You should do a montage of the pigeon thing, but you have to be on the run from the cops while trying to shoot said pigeons. So we can see all your failed attempts or moments where cop cars interrupt your aiming. :D

    And when I say we, I mean everyone else. >:

    Part 23 - Been Carjacked And Shot In The Kneecaps? Call The Law Offices of Bellic & Bellic. [Blip.tv] [Viddler] - Featuring Klyka and Owenashi

    I'm considering re-recording some of the game, partially because not many interesting things happen coming up and I'm finally realizing how to upload better quality than before. Or do people want to see the fresh reactions to each mission regardless?

    True that. We shouldn't have seen the raw footage yet anyway, so we'd never know.

    Nah, I'll keep the originals. Klyka made a good point in that it's funnier knowing everything I do in the videos is usually accidental. The main reason I considered doing it was because I could finally get some high quality video up, but I think the quality is fine as it is.

    Here's the next part. Viddler is still encoding. I thought I could be clever and encode my videos straight to flash instead of mp4, that way I wouldn't have to waste time waiting for the sites to encode, but it came out super small on viddler for some reason, though it looks fine on Blip. Oh well, mp4 it is.

    He had finished the game before we recorded audio for 20 or 21, I think.

    Adus, I've wondered, those things you do, like drive on the sidewalk, jump on cars and surf them, and see how many people you can keep on the hood of your car, do you do those for the LP, or is that just how you play the game?

    either way, I love it. :D Especially your epic dismounts from bikes. Shame you didn't kill the hotdog stand after you ate there. I tend to shoot them in the legs after they cuss me out for taking too long eating. (???)

    The challenge is not running that guy that cut you off through a building. That goes pretty much for real life and GTA, though, wouldn't it?

    Interesting. I didn't start LPing for e-fame, but I have to admit it's nice seeing my name on there since that page is how I discovered LPing in the first place.

    Though it's slightly inaccurate. I don't dislike my FFVII LP. I'm quite happy with it actually. I just got frustrated with having to re-upload the images like to three different hosts. I also would have personally chosen Cloud/Squall's drug and Jailbait addiction as the highlights. Trying to stop the world from being saved will always be key though.

    You start with Michael Westen, and then Solid Snake doing Michael Westen, and then Batman doing Solid Snake, and then William Shatner.

    Anyway, didn't even realize Owenashi was Australian. Must be why he's so well versed in the small breast ban.

    Klyka, I believe it's been 5 years since you've played Metal Gear, because your snake sounds like he's got a cold.

    Anyway, great video. Yet again Adus manages to impress me with his stunted 180 off a curb backslide. Whenever I try that, I just back over the curb. :(
