Dont you just love youtube comments though...

rocksoliddude1 - "how doyou know they are the top 50 have you played all 9000 games?"

Dont people realise its not 'official' ? Think boyo has to put 'unofficial' into the title in case some anoraks think its a list which is 100% final/official/legal etc !

Ha ha nice to see you were 'jowetted' as well i see (his comment was flagged as spam)

I think this was around the time I was uploading around 3 videos a day. I'm not quite sure what I was thinking, who even has time to watch all that trash? :lol:

I do alot of random Youtube videos myself.

My best one..... that actually makes SENSE as to getting a good number of views, is this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAa7Um6-nZA with 19,589 views. It's a video of the first danmaku boss I made for LBP. I have to use a digital camera to record console footage, so the character actually steps outside of the view a couple of times.


My best one that DOESNT make sense is this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Z5n5cKU-iA with an absurd 72,913 views. It's a video of Binding of Isaac, specifically me failing at defeating the end boss while I'm using a really unusual weapon. This video was only put up back in November. It's JUST a video of me losing that fight. I havent the foggiest damn clue as to why it has so many views. Or how it even gets found. I'm still getting (sometimes annoying) comments / questions on this one. I dont know why. I only put it up because I thought it was amusing and I happened to capture it on video.

I've only uploaded a few videos, none game related as I see so many others that are of a much higher quality that I can manage, but my most successful one is for an unboxing video for a Nikon L120 camera which has a massive 431 views ! :o
