  • Unlike other LP projects on the channel, The Games does not feature live commentary from those playing, instead using third-party commentary to replicate the format of real-life sports. Most of the guest commentators are friends of the channel, some of whom had already appeared as guests or members in earlier videos. The penultimate event of The Ist Games features rotating commentary from many of the guests from prior events, while the final event features commentary from Rick himself, making it the only event to be commentated by one of the participants in The Games.
