You seriously need to position your camera on a tripod or something. Also, if you want to do this seriously, consider getting a better microphone.

Actually, consider completely foregoing showing yourself in the video at all, to be frank, it's kind of boring just staring at your face. Try throwing in some images or video of the game you're talking about.

Yeah, I agree. Stable camera, and make it interesting. You ever heard of or seen the Angry Video Game Nerd? Or the Nostalgia Critic?

Angry Game Nerd doesn't actually review games... he takes old (mostly) crappy games, and butchers them for flaws that were often very common of the time. He then goes on a rant of made up swears, and then does a little skit of either destroying the cartridge, or being attacked by something related to it.

Admittedly on occasion it's amusing, but still, it's no Arby n' Chief (one of the very few series I actually enjoy on youtube)

thanks for the advice...... only problem being I know not how to edit

If you're on a Windows computer (who isn't), you can use Windows Movie Maker, which should have come with your computer. A Google search could turn up some interesting alternatives. There seems to be more options for Apple and Linux computers, if you happen to have one.

It's funny, while it may be easier to implement cool edits with other movie programs, you can do almost everything with WMM.

Just go into WMM, put in your video / audio file, then edit in interesting stuff. Throw in video/screenshots/audio or whatever of the game you're playing. For example, if you think that a game has some good music, throw in a short clip of it (keep the clips short though! like 10-15 seconds max, I can look up the song myself if I want to) or if you think that a game has really bad controls, throw in a little video of yourself playing exemplifying the nonreactive controls.
