If you like Let's Play videos I suggest checking out supergreatfriend. I've been watching his videos since the mid 2000s when he would post them to the Something Awful forums (I'm getting old). His Let's Plays are well-researched, thorough, and entertaining. He sometimes plays some very obscure games and often touches on the history of the game's development and will play them to 100% completion. He also has a good (dry) sense of humor, and while I don't think he's a commie or anything, I've definitely heard him make jokes that indicate he at least leans left.

Some LPs of his I really enjoy:

  • Siren and Siren 2 - These games are probably two of my favorite horror games ever made and SGF does a good job showing how unique they are.
  • ILLBLEED - Very strange Dreamcast game that gets even more bizarre as it goes along. Truly one of the weirdest games I've ever experienced.
  • Deadly Premonition - Probably his most well-known LP, in which he 100% completes the game (if you've ever played this game before you know how difficult that can be). He even went as far as watching the movies the protagonist mentions in-game and giving a brief review of them.

He's also a big fan of the Silent Hill and Resident Evil series and has great LPs of those games as well. In his Silent Hill 2 LP he even plays all the different versions of the game, including the infamous "HD Collection" version just to show how different it is. FYI: the above mostly applies to his videos titled "Let's Play [game name]." The ones that start with "Bumbling through [game name]" are just him playing that game for the first time and so are a lot less detailed (although usually still entertaining).
