Guys can anyone tell me whats the best free software to record gameplay videos for youtube?. I want to start a gaming channel and upload some lets play videos, but not really sure where to start xD.
Also maybe if you guys could look at my steam profile http://steamcommunity.com/id/mcdgray129/
and help me pick one of the games from my list that you think i should do?.

Also do you need to talk in lets play videos? cos im kinda shy when it comes to that stuff xD

Most do speak, but's it's not an obligation. Some doesn't and use subtitles or crawling text instead, others don't alter their vids in any way (especially common in Long Plays). Most people who watch LP do so for the commentary though, but not having one may just be jour distict style to demark yourself from the other Let's Players.

Within AMD's Gaming Evolved package comes Raptr, that works like Shadowplay (I think). http://raptr.com/amd

And I don't watch many let's play videos, but on the few I've seen the host did spoke. But if you're shy, you could do some introduction and then use text messages through the video, but I don't know how that works.

*Edit* About which game you should start with, it really depends on you. If you go with a big and new game you'll probably have more visits, but the comments can be a lot harsher. If you go with a small game you'll get less visits but they could be more loyal.

I do have AMD Gaming Evolved, but it prefers Twitch instead of Youtube as far as I can tell.

I wouldn't go with a new game. Basically everybody who starts a LP Channel does so. As a result, you'd just be the proverbial needle in the haystack who nobody finds. Better come up with something more original, preferably a game you know well or something more obscure.
