Recording microphone and speakers at the same time

Hi,

I'm interested in doing a Let's Play for a video game, and I need to be able to record both the game sounds and my microphone input at the same time for this. However, I'd like to be able to dub my voice over if I flub a line without messing up sounds from the game. So, my question is, is there a way for Audacity to simultaneously record microphone input and game sounds, but in separate tracks that I can edit separately?

Thanks in advance!

The best way to do this is probably to do one track at a time.
Record the game track first, then overdub the voice track onto a new track.

Mhh, alright. I was rather hoping to be able to capture my reactions in real time, but that works too. Thanks!
