VJ is definitely the funnier one, even though Jeff didn't really like the game.

I liked Vinny and Jeff. I wish Ryan and Vinny and Jeff were all on the same one, though. No offense to Brad.

VJ > BR, but BR certainly has its moments.  I hope they do another ER.  If they want me as a pay subscriber, they can put another ER behind a paywall and I'll come running with my pants down and wallet out.

I loved VJ and gave up on BR halfway through due to Brad's incessant complaining about the quality of the game and my trouble keeping the plot straight.  I'd say go with Vinny and Jeff, both are good though (Maybe I'll go back and finish BR if people in this thread can convince me).

VJ, because Vinny and Jeff are pretty hilarious. Brad sucks at video games, and Ryan is a total jackass. No fun there.

I loved BR mostly due to Ryan harping on Brad for sucking all the time. VJ played the game straight and pretended it wasn't hot garbage (albeit hot garbage with a good story), so I found myself able to appreciate BR better.

I enjoyed them both at different points for different reasons. I hope that when they do another one they do another four man run. I miss the days of being able to log onto the site and know that there was always a couple hours of video content waiting for me every day, and that it would always be great. Well almost always.  
 
Those ceiling witch days where a pain to sit through. Only time I ever skipped a head in an endurance run was when they were on day 3 of that same fucking hall way. We can laugh now looking back, but at the time... oh boy.

Just watch 2 or 3 episodes of each and pick which one you want to continue for now.

@Eristocrat: Brad didn't really hate the game. After about half way through they both had this epiphany where all their bad comments were jokes. They got hooked to the story as soon as it started picking up.

Brads play style is so different than my own, to the point where i could only watch a few episodes.

They both have their moments.  Early on I think I latched on to BR more, but I think VJ finished stronger.  Of course, it's been awhile, maybe I just don't recall so well.
 
Of course, the only correct answer is just to re-watch (or watch for the first time?) the P4 endurance run.

VJ was much better for me, not just because the were the original ER team but I found watching brad play a little painful.

VJ for life. I didn't even make it through the first ep of BR because Brad's complaining got so damn annoying.

I loved BR' enthusiasm a lot more. VJ had the whole 'been there,done that ' nature  
 
They both had great moments. VJ had the thomas dancing in his hotel room and BR had the devil dogs. 
 
Each equally funny

I'd have to say VJ... They are the original endurance run team, and Vinny only does quick looks and stuff every once in a while so its a good way to get a little more Vinny in your life (which is a must for everyone).

Overall, VJ's probably easier to watch. Vinny and Jeff do indeed have sort of a "been here before" attitude, but not in a negative way. Brad and Ryan aren't bad, but Brad's ability to screw up fights due to a lack of attention or an abundance of unwarranted showmanship can get frustrating to watch. 
 
I watched them together each day, starting with BR and ending with VJ. If you had an insane amount of time to devote to watching all that video footage, it would be more interesting to watch how each group handles and reacts to the various situations like that.

If you can only watch one, watch VJ and then the highlight reel on Youtube of BR.

VR was hilarious but BR was great because Brad played so badly. It didn't help that the controls are absolute shit in that game, either.

I watched VJ, didn't touch BR. But just recently, out of boredom, I went back and gave BR a shot. It comes in second to VJ, but still a good run.
