It's worth noting that Tanthias, one of our more active LPers, has noticed that YouTube doesn't seem to count views when people watch the videos from the forum, rather than venturing over to YouTube itself.

Then that gives me a little bit more hope.

Anyway, Episode 3 - Arkanoid and Arkanoid revenge of Doh Double header!

[sockesocke]

i liked the new style of your 3rd episode as well, didnt know about most of the stuff you mentioned, so it was fun and interesting at once.
i already have an idea what you could play next. top hunter, its a 2d sidescrolling beat em up/platformer mix and one of the lesser known games from snk.

I like the more history-focused style of commentary.

yeah, embeds and phone views don't count for the purpose of view count.

Also, both are pre/post roll incompatible, so partnered youtube channels don't get any money from embeds.

Brilliant videos, currently watching through ProGear, Final Fight was good to watch. Great intro as well.

[Lee]

Great episodes

Just got time to watch 2 and 3.

When i saw revenge of Doh, i thought back to 2004 and remembered a game called Blasterball, which Wild Tanget/Shockwave were selling for $20 and it looks almost identical to Doh.

Episode 2 Right Here Right Now.

On a Suggestion by SockeSocke, A cave Shooter. Pro Gear.

Yes, those reticules are for the gunner. Cave shooters tend to put both shot types onto the one button. Taps give one style, holding it down does the other. The way the gunner works is much more obvious when holding the button. Although now I'm having those wonderfully annoying flashbacks to levels 4 & 9. It's a crime against nature.

Also, great project overall, etc. etc.

Thanks for the Comments everyone, im glad they are being enjoyed, and thanks raype for the confirmation about the gunners in Progear. Be giving that a bit more play i think.

Anyway, Episode 4 - Metal Slug

[trencej]

Two in a day, Crazy!

Anyway, Episode 5 - 1944: The Loop Master.

[trencej]

Three in a day, even crazier.

What can i say, its a quiet sunday.

[sockesocke]

nice, your 1944 run was very good.

[Kermit Da Frog]

Good stuff. Quite enjoyed the Bubble Bobble episode. Might I suggest the X-Men arcade game?

[Kouen Hasuki]

Interesting Stuff, I'll Sub on Youtube to save me time and keep myself posted better

[HateKore]

Hey bro, mind sharing info on how you record these vids ? I know MAME is a bitch when it comes to recording.
Best I got was this quality:

[trencej]

Thanks for all the comments people, makes me feel better that people are actually watching these.

Thanks for the Sub Kouen, That brings my grand total to 2. Wooooo!

Kermit, I may do that, its a good game indeed. Like i said in the last video, In the UK, A series (or season if thats the preferred term in your country) is 6 Episodes, so im going to take a little break, And i am hoping to start Uploading in 720p for the next series, To give me more space for things like history, and better quality overall. And i would need the space for things like xmen, as i would record the dual screen, 6 player version. May even do the triple screen Darius if it will fit right.

As for you Hatecore, That video is fine quality, i dont see what the issue is. My workflow is as follows.

Record gameplay at 640x360 (Youtube widescreen SD resolution), Convert to High Quality mp4 to save space. Intro was created in After Effects.
Chuck The intro and the gameplay video into premiere, then record the commentary directly inside premiere. Then spend a few more hours gathering images, taking screenshots from other emulators etc. Then placing all the images in and timing them properly to the Commentary.

Just as an aside, How many of you noticed that the image that gets shattered in the intro is the game im playing? It does go by a bit quick, so not sure if you can make it out or not.

So like i said, im going to have a bit of a break, Remake (or make a completely new( intro for 720p, Then start on season 2. It will be a bit slower this time around, as to be honest, i only started these videos as my wife and kids went to scotland for a week, so getting time to do them will be a bit harder, But will try for at least one a week. Needs to be paced a bit better anyway i think. Three in a day was a bit much.

Again, thanks for watching, and keep the comments coming.
