Retsupurae (Warning: Strong Language)

[Psychopulse]

Practially nearly everyone knows what a Let's Play is, but these guys (Diabetus and Slowbeef from Something Awful, with the occasional guest commentator) find the worst of the worst Let's Plays and mock them MST3k style. It's hilarious.

Here's some of my favorites:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRmZ7QxPYYI - A Super Mario Frustration ROM hack playthrough.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OC1SzVR5zeo - Super Bomberman 2 LP, with triple fudge packers.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dk_emtv-bFg - They look at a review for the 3 Street Fighter games for the SNES.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xt2uyDqbA-Q - A Kaizo Mario World playthrough with Slowbeef saying the emulator's name every time a state is saved or loaded.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vms1rY9gmZw - Please Stop Let's Playing I Wanna Be the Guy. Seriously.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVGFkA5zjso - A Super Mario World LP where someone grinds for lives in the first world. But there's a surprise at the 7:00 mark which catches them off guard.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5TW2PfwxMQ - A Super Mario Bros. 3 let's play with insanely loud sound effects. Adjust the volume if necessary.

I find the concept of Retspurae's rather pointless. In particular, Slowbeef's Snes9x one is just misguided. The source Let's Play video only had about 16 views when he picked it. I might see a point in Retspurae-ing popular or for-profit Let's Plays, but this is just ridiculous.

I really don't like the ones where they just sit and repeat one phrase for six minutes.

Thanks for posting! I'm loving these videos, especially the NaVgtr, BillyMC and MuscleBummer2021 playthroughs.

You mean the load-state ones? That's kinda the point.
