Super Secret Area - Dead Ahead!

Pokemon Yellow was excellent, and very detailed. If the game's your thing, then I'd recommend it.

Hahaha, yeah. I think I learned more about Pokemon Yellow from that run than I have from playing the game a gajillion times when I was a kid, lol.

One shall stand, one shall ball.

Basic rule for commentary on the runs is this: if in the first couple minutes of actual gameplay there is interesting information being delivered or at least the hint that there will be, feel free to listen, if not then it's probably unfunny internet-ness. The Prime games, funkdoc's runs, and Pokemon all had very good commentary. Fusion wasn't bad either and Soap's donation comments were pretty good.

Every once in a while they read out comments that people can leave with their donation.

ANKOKU

They were much better about it with RANEofSOTN on the laptop. He constantly checked the stream and comments.

Often afterwords the comment reader would do A WHOLE BUNCH AT ONCE or even wait till the game had finished. Which was really rather bad.

Ah right. *high fives everyone else who is the MAN or WOAH-MAN (as the case may be)*

Speaking of "The man", that saying is now hackneyed and I really hope it's not abused next marathon.
