Playing games is really only a quarter of the job, most the work is in the commentary. It has to be high quality and legitimately funny and unscripted... or else it will just be throw into the pile of "can't make it" of which many thousands of LP'ers currently sit. Le717 is right though, MC LP's are way overdone now.

Oh yes, because Minecraft LPs are some of the most original, uncopied, and efficient use of my time! I love watching someone kill their nth creeper in 10 minutes and carry on with their normal server activities! That is so much fun! Come on, this is RRU. More creative stuff than Minecraft LPs can be done. I know it. Those things are as numerous as bad fanfics, and are often done by the same age group, too. I watch few LPs, and Minecraft ones are a type I never touch because they are so numerous and repetitive they have lost all magic they might once have had (not to mention many people own Minecraft these days). Every once in a blue moon I do a LP (if you've never seen my LPs, go to my channel and watch one. Just prepare yourself.). Who knows, maybe that can be a feature. That would probably be better than a Minecraft LP. tl;dr Minecraft LPs are some of the most cliche, overly done video game uploads on the Web. I know RRU too well to know that something more original can be devised if such an "RRU Tube" project ever takes off.

Ooooh, I is very intrigued by the idea of an RRU Youtube channel. I'm not exactly a pro gamer (XP, remember? ) , but we could also possibly do some little animated shorts based around events in the shoutbox, and I'd be happy to lend my voice and write scripts and stuff like that for it if that ever happened.

I also don't see a point to the Minecraft LP, for the same reasons as you have mentioned, I do like the idea of maybe playing other multiplayer games (Garry's Mod, for example) and recording that and also the podcast idea. Single people could also have proper LP's of games, but I don't know if everyone would want to.
