I surprised major game companies don't pay people to LP their games, it's the best form of advertising for games.
Why bother paying someone when there's gamers doing it for free?Thats a good point.
I like watching Let's Plays, but I think they can be counter-productive as advertisement at times, as they may spoil the story and/or secrets, so that potential players could think it's not worth buying the game after you've watched someone else play it.True, but there are many story based games I've replayed many times. A story based game should have good enough game play or story and game play mix to keep people coming back and only get a small part of the experience by just watching it. There are several games I've played because of watching let splays of them.

Saying this, well, there will be people who decide not to buy it because of this. Whether the amount of people that do buy it after watching an LP is larger than the former number, in other words, if there is a profit in the amount of people buying the game, I cannot say.
However, since I don't think any game company has tried to take down gameplay videos of their games, I assume they don't see LPs as a threat to their commercial plans at the very least.AFAIR, Konamy did do that.
Whew, seems like I overdid this a bit. Please don't feel like I'm trying to attack you or anything.
It's really weird, but when I watched your vods, it feels like I'm seeing KU in slow motion. I counted a few times how long it takes to walk across an empty screen.It's an issue with Fraps. When I record with Fraps it slows down the frame rate. When I record the frame rate drops to 30. I had to turn water effects to normal because when they were on high the frame fare dropped a lot when recording while on a screen with water.
Your time = 6-7 secs
My time = 4 secs
Is this the PS3 version, or does recording slow it down?

Off the top of my head I know that Sega has gone DMCA frenzy lately. I can't think of any others off the top of my head but I know some have. It's not common though.
And for Fraps, the game doesn't have to be in fullscreen anyway. It can record windowed mode just as easily.I do record it in a window.
