So. I don't know how good/bad this is, at the moment.

But I did one so I thought I'd give it a gander here and see what the reaction's like. Lame jokes abound and moderate amounts of swearing.

Gunstar Heroes
Gunstar Heroes 1
Gunstar Heroes 2
Gunstar Heroes 3
Gunstar Heroes 4
Gunstar Heroes 5 - The Final

ESP Ra De
ESP Ra De 1 - TEJ, you suckStage 6
ESP Ra De 2 - I suck Stage6



FROM HERE ON IN MAIN VIDS ARE STAGE6 BECAUSE THEY UPLOAD FASTER AND HAVE LESS PROBLEMS THAN...EVERYTHING ELSE

I recommend saving the videos (any videos, actually) from Stage6 then watching them on your browser. I dislike the Stage6 online streaming because it's too big for my tastes, but your preferences may differ, of course.


Donkey Kong

Kaizo Mario World

I hope my voice is tolerable and such. I haven't gotten the hang of mic/gameplay sounds balancing (think game audio's too loud) but I'll work on that. Maybe.

Oh, I also hope it doesn't suck of course (but that goes by default).

EDIT: Tips on recording/compressing would be much appreciated, if anyone knows any. Unless you think the vid sucks, in which case encouraging such behavior is counterproductive to your interests.

I still stand by the comment that you have one of the coolest voices on the forums, Dark. Pretty interesting. I haven't played Gunstar Heroes, but I have played the GBA version, and I must say, I suck at it.

It's tremendous fun, though. I managed to beat it on Easy and Normal.

This is like one of those Let's Play videos, mirite?

Better yet, Mumble is free and if you configure it right, exceeds Vents voice quality.

It's a bit more of a hassle to configure (adding users manually through a database), but nothing overly difficult.

As long as no one mentions the abomination that is TeamSpeak...


On-topic: lower the in-game volume next time, sometimes it was hard to hear what you were saying.

I find it strange that my in game volume was almost mute, but the mic picked it up even though I PERSONALLY COULD NOT HEAR IT. This mic I'm using is hardcore. @_@

EDIT: Riot, this IS practically a Let's Play vid but I didn't name it as such so that I don't get associated with the Something Awful forums because I'm not a part of it and I need to PAAAAAAAAAAAAAY (evil) to join in. I lurk there all the time though.

It's only ten bucks, you know.

Not that I've registered yet either. Though one of my friends has promised to cancel a $10 betting debt I have to him if I use it to get an account...I'm sorry, this was totally irrelevant. I'll give you some comments once I listen to it >_>

Not familiar with online paying methods, and your ten bucks = fifty for me.

Ah a "lets play" video. I'd make one of these myself but I'm not sure what I'd play and my voice doesn't sound the greatest played back if you ask me. Thus far I think carby is the only who has heard me speak person to person.

How you ask? Pokemon Diamond of course. Aside from the voice thing I highly doubt the lot of you want to watch me play stuff anyways. Most of what I play is RPGs so I figure I'd be pretty boring to watch XD

Stage 3 completed. Stage 4 being uploaded (will take a while, my connection blows for uploading to Dailymotion).

Frankly speaking, this one went TOO well.

Dark, what Genesis emulators would you recommend? I heard in one of your videos you talking about multiple versions.

Also, what system is that ESP Ra De for? It looks really fun.

Eh, I'm just fucking around. :P

I believe I comment on it in this next vid, AND I confess my love to Mikallen!

Gunstar Heroes 5 - The Final

Btw, if anyone has suggestions to something to play next, I'm ears. Preferably something that can be played on emulators at the moment because I'm short on hard disk space.

Offhand, I'm thinking of:
- Puzzle Quest (just random battles and continuing my quest)
- Scrabble

And I shall do a video later or maybe tomorrow morning.

PS - I shall use Stage6 almost exclusively now, if no one minds. It uploads faster AND the quality is better preserved. :D

EDIT: Mika, the emulator I'm using is the Gens 32 surreal (pretty much any Gens version will do, but surreal gives me very good volume control options, which is needed).

And ESP Ra De can be played on the MAME emulator.

Oh my god. ESP Ra De.

Dark, I love you.

You gotta do Dangun Feveron!

I contemplate if I should record myself playing a survival horror, that way you guys can see me running away, screaming from the TV every hour or so. That and screaming my lungs out and dropping the controller whenever it vibrates suddenly.

Yes, I'm a chicken.

Just a note, I recommend downloading any Stage6 videos (not just mine) and just using your media player to watch it. I think Stage6 by default bloats things up too much (unless it's high res, but my stuff definitely ain't high res :P)

So suggested games (counting chats):
- Dangun Feveron (done, but recordings all fucked up)
- Cho Aniki
- Ghouls and Ghosts
- Kirby
- Rougelike (Nethack?)
- GOONIES 2
- MORE Kaizo (or any other sadistic ROMhack =_=)

Arche - You could always go the subtitles route. :D

You should definitely do more sadistic romhacks.

And if I did do it, it'd be voiced, because I think everyone would want to hear exactly how pompous I sound.

Empty rooms; use the hammer or fist on walls/ceilings/floors!

The game's world is as big as metroid's; lots of hidden items you can use in the FPS mode.

Ah yes, the days of Nintendo games which don't explain anything, dump you in the middle of the game world and confuse the fuck out of new people.

I have no visual/audio cues.

The game wasn't that bad, in all honesty. It just didn't make any fucking sense.

But that's what I get for playing old age Nintendo anyway.

Is it based on a movie or something?

It's the sequel to a game based on a movie. The original movie is a kid's adventure movie which is a classic for many of us. Goonies 2's "plot" isn't based on the movie though (lol, plot).

And yeah, a lot of it doesn't make any sense, and it's hillarious to go back and look at how silly it is now. The game's still one of my favourites (yay games that reward creativity and exploration).

Sorry to go off-topic, but I noticed from Utop's sig that he's watching Dexter. How do you like it? My whole family's obsessed with the show. The cop show filler can be kind of silly, but the show has such great dark humor and acting when it focuses on Dexter that I can't help but love it. My sister has Showtime On Demand at her apartment, and I wasn't able to go down there when she and my parents watched the last four episodes of the second season >_>

I really enjoyed the show, especially the second season (although the last episode was a little weak). I'm not sure where the writers can go at this point though.

Some aspects of the show are a bit weak, but overall the acting is strong enough to carry it.

The more I think about this the more I want to do some "lets play" videos of my own. But I lack the means to record and re-encode the videos into something manageable. That and I honestly don't know what to play ^_^;;

The most I have available right now is ZSNES and visual boy advance but the videos it both take aren't perfect sometimes. ZSNES is damn good at recording RPGs though since all it does is record button input. When all you're doing is shuffling thru menus there really isn't any room for errors ya know?

This is really belated, but I have been really busy. That, and getting recordings to be just the right volume on new comp was a bitch.

But now I'm killing my girlfriend in Left 4 Dead when I'm not supposed to

Wait for the six minute thirty seconds or so mark, it's epic.

In other news, I've been trying to make a Spelunky video but goddamn is that game hard to record. Half the things don't catch it properly and the other half capture it too slowly and it'll desync.
