    My 2 favorite are hutch and OnlyUseMeBlade
    Justwondering what people think of these commentators and or other ones.
    I also think Tallon is brilliant and love the way that he is one of the only irish commentators around.

    I watch alot of commentators, I don't really like Machinima that much though. Some of my favourites are Pyropuncher, Woodysgamertag, TmarTn, and FPSKyle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    It'll probably get me shot but I watch Chris Smoove's videos, because he's funny, he blatantly camps and knows it, but the fact he jokes about it and is a decent player makes it entertaining.

    I watch WoR's as well even though I hate him, I dont know why I bother tbh.

    WoR I hate, Smoove even though he camps is at least funny about it, and on the maps where he doesnt camp he's quite decent, but at least he doesnt take it seriously, which WoR does, precious KDR, preciousssssss! Does anyone else get the image of being elbow deep in a bucket of KFC as he's doing commentaries? Chickenwings of Redemption more like :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,692 ✭✭✭shawpower


    Onslaught. TmarTn. Woody. SeaNanners (wait till BOps comes out...). Those are the guys I would watch over lunch first. OnlyUse is funny, but it's a bit jaded now so will get better when BOps comes. Hutch isn't really a MW2 commentator anymore. He was great at the start though.

    Used to love Elpresador.....bit sick of him at the moment though. Exposing Lames (solid rev) is funny. I like Hutch aswell, SeaNanners is my favorite atm.
    I must check out some of the other guys mentioned. WOR is good, I think he shot himself in the foot though by charging people to become "friends" with him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,975 ✭✭✭iMuse


    My fave is Thunder Toro. He bitches about mw2 loads but its funny and he came up with the famous phrase "You aint Grizz Baby". Stopped watching alot of MW2 vids lately caus they got so stale, hopefully should be better when black ops is out. Fave machinma commentator would be Xcal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 52 ✭✭FionnBarr


    Yeh just checked out smoove he pretty funny- but a blatant camper! :L


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,119 ✭✭✭Sprrratt


    Why has nobody mentioned Tejb? Only for Hutch has become a professional (actually employed for it) as has Seananners, Tejb would walk away with it imo? If Sandy Ravage did more commentaries he would certainly be my favourite. Thats purely based on the fact that he rapes no matter what.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,565 ✭✭✭✭Tallon


    Tejb is my fav by miles. he's so down to earth.

    I think he's like a Sweedish me :)

    Sandy Ravage for his 3p1c $k1llzzz and hilarious Duke Nukem sound bytes

    Chris Smoove for his humorous commentary and laid back approach


    TmarTn though is the one who I have learnt the most from especially through his MW101 series


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,686 ✭✭✭Kersmash

    He has a new account though http://www.youtube.com/user/402THUNDER402

    Also like watching this Irish guy TheSideshow, he even managed to get a vid on FPS kyles channel and pyropunchers, I think hes hilarious



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,932 ✭✭✭YouSavedMyLife


    Only watch ELPRESADOR to be honest. The rest are just a bunch of nerds ;););)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,401 ✭✭✭jtsuited


    Seananners, Hutch and Mr Sark are genuinely entertaining guys. Tejb's annoying but fun. Wings of Redemption is one weird guy.

    Ken Burton is a fcukin egomaniac with absolutely no justification. He's just a sad middle aged bastard who reminds me so much of a fame hungry Alan Partridge mess of a human. Laughs at his own jokes, and seems genuinely insecure what with his reaction to youtube haters. Pathetic excuse of a man.

    that guy who camps is one of my favourite


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 117 ✭✭cedan


    Only subbed to smoove, he plays the game for what it is, a game. I dont think ive ever really heard him abuse another player he has played with or against, he might laugh at em but he laughs at himself too!

    Im subbed to Tallon too, but can barely remember the last full commentary from him, get the finger out, lol! I enjoy his vids though! Again, doesn't seem to take things too seriously! Any chance of a dual commentary with smoove Tallon????:D

    Just their gay accents and the way they speak. Plus the fact I learn nothing from their videos. That Junkyard guy is the worst, sounds like a children's tv presenter. Although the Brits arnt much better, that GUNIT guy is beyond annoying and Ken Burton, while he sounds grand on the mic, is a terrible player lol.
    I usually have a quick look on there when new games come out but I dont know how people watch all the vids on there everyday.

    Ken also sounds like a child. Come here you ya little buggaahh! And did anyone ever ask why he treats it like a live commentary saying stuff like "Oh heres a guy lets get him oh 1 hitmarker 2 hitmarkers 3 ahh buggahh..." when clearly he knows what he did in the game because he played it and im sure has went over the video before commentating.

    You're right, we need more daycent accents,and commentaries done through a mouthful of shpuds.

    That's enough of that lads, thanks.

    I don't mind commentators not being excellent players but Ken isn't even within an ass's roar of an average player. Woeful really.

    I know commentators put a lot of work into what they do and i'm not trying to slat that.

    But is there anyone else who doesn't watch any of their videos or find them entertaining?

    I can appreciate what they do and how they put it together, but i just can't watch more than one video.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,565 ✭✭✭✭Tallon


    Not everyone likes them, thats perfectly understandable....

    Do you mind me asking why you cant watch them?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,732 ✭✭✭Magill


    Only commentator i really watch regularly is TheSideSho, an Irish guy, good laugh and hes not totally ****e at the game.. not that it matters really. Much better craic than all those machinima fags imo.

    I'm not sure why, I find some of the stuff interesting like rare stuff that happens in a game. Like throwing knife kills when they first came out or 720 no-scopes before every eejit tried it. The appeal soon wears off though.

    I must say Tallon, your videos are very well put together, but I think it's because i've been playing online since the first COD, so have been around a while and mostly seen it all.

    Also without trying to seem like i'm boasting, I've been getting banned from severs for getting 30+ killstreaks before there even were killstreak bonus's. So watching videos of people doing good doesn't appeal to me either.

    I have loads of fraps recordings myself lying around from various games that i've never used, i put a few together from COD4 and WAW on youtube but without commentry.

    No harm in saying you're good at the game tbh, I'm good at it, have played enough games with boardsies who can back that up, but I have my sh1t games as well (groundwar, lag, arrrgh!)
    KDR is never an indication of how good you are tbh, the amount of times I've commited suicide to switch to a cold blooded class and take down air support is crazy at this stage, its doing my KDR no favours so I stopped caring about it ages ago :pac:

    I've gone 8 or more deaths in a row trying to capture flags going for objectives. Every class i have has a stinger so i can avoid the suicide when it comes to taking down ac130's and the likes thankfully!

    Though as i've said before i do care about my KDR a bit, but not to the stage where I wouldn't go for objectives. Though by trying to master all guns mine's gone down from 2.5 to 2.22.

    I'd like to stress that i didn't come onto this thread to discredit commentators and blow my own trumpet. As I said I do appreciate their videos and am impressed by the work the put into them, just it's not my cup of tea really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    I'd have a stinger equipped all the time only for I cant have the SPAS as my primary :pac:, if I could I'd be grand, but playing MW2 has taught me a valuable lesson, if you want air support taken down, do it yourself. (unless me and leeg17 are on the team, then leave it to us, I shoot down UAVs for the giggles)

    Prestiging is horrible. At the start of the rank I don't have a stinger, and can only sit and watch enemy air support be free to do it's thing. I die a little inside when that happens.

    Shooting down care packages is where the fun's at, it's tricky and people send very, very abusive messages after...

    Only ever shot down one care package chopper, and that was by accident, was aiming at a pavelow and the smaller one flew in the way :pac:

    I agree about prestiging, its ridiculous you have to be in the high 20's low 30's before you get cold blooded and stingers, it should be there from level 5 or 6, for new players who dont know where hiding spots or what route to take around a level to avoid air support fire its a nightmare.
    although stupid teammates who leg it outside and dont watch where a harrier is on the UAV are just as bad, honestly how hard is it? you see the harrier pointing in your direction, hide! when it rotates away its safe to move, fcuking hell its not rocket science, the pavelows and cobras are a bit harder to judge as they shoot in multiple directions


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 578 ✭✭✭Predator_


    I have to disagree. The game in general is easy and k/d gives a good indication of how good the player is. All my friends on psn who have a 2k/d are good players compared to the people with 0.something k/d's.

    When we had a 14man domination private match for first to 500 points I couldn't get into the game at all between lagg, and magfag r@ping me so I just started shooting down UAV's for the lulz


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 249 ✭✭tonsiltickler


    Fave commentators:

    Tejb
    Hutch
    Seananners

    And for the win FPS Russia. His videos are hilarious. Theyre dubbed with sime sort of glorius soviet victory music. Also he shoots some of the guns from mw2 and cod 4, even doing a noscope 360 with an R700!

    depends on what your definition of a "good player" is, someone who sits in a room adding to their own killstreak and not playing the objective isnt. someone who's out sacrificing themselves to shoot down air support and protecting the team is.
