I think Commandos is a great game for a cooperative Let's Play. It consists of several relatively short and self contained levels and allows for an almost infinite number of solutions for each level.

I think of posting the mission briefings and then allow other people to propose and agree on a strategy on how to do it. And then I'll give it a try.

So what has to be done:
- Get the game. I have it. Check.
- Get a way to record it: And here's the first difficulty. I do have fraps and a microphone, but I never actually recorded an ingame video and simultaneously recorded a commentary track, or even merged the two. With this one I would need your help. Anyone here knows what software to use to make ingame videos with a comentary track? Halp? :smalleek:
- Get it uploaded: I've uploaded things on youtube before. I know how to do that. Check.
- Get a participating audience: That would be you. Check. :smallbiggrin:

For those who don't know the game (I played it as a kid and I am not that young anymore) it is a top down perspective game set in World War II in which you control a small handful of Allied special forces soldiers who are send to infiltrate Nazi bases and usually blow stuff up. But the places are all heavily guarded and you have to use the special abilities of all your specialists to get through defenses and distract guards while hopefully going completely undetected. But reaching your target is only half the job. When it's done, you also have to get back out while lots of guards come running from the barracks looking for you.
I havn't played the game in years and never completed it, so this will all be semi-blind.
