More Portal mishaps on the way.

I am here to announce that I grew another chest hair last night. CONFIRMING the chest fairy is real.  Soon I will be able to braid them. How exciting!

The real reason for this mornings post is to inform all readers that at 9pm Eastern Time the misadventures of Con and Jed will commence on Live Stream. There will also be another game give away! *sqeeee*

I just have to get through my Tang-So-Do class first..I am so rusty..

Its a Nintendo 64!! Er, Playstation 4!!

So the new Playstation 4 has been announced. Officially I suppose. Upfront I like the fact it dumped its Cell Processor. That thing was nothing but a tool box for hype. Every developer hated its complicated Sony engineering. The system itself is more and more just a PC inside a locked plastic case. The system packs 8 gigs of ram though. Dang! I wouldn't have thought they do that. MAYBE 6 but 8? *claps* It'll need it for the cross game voice chats and live gameplay of DLC games.

Now the controller is "interesting".  For one its great to see they didn't goof everything up with another embarrassing boomerang design like they did for the Ps3's first controller. The new hardware has a much more "welcome to 2008" feel. Sony finally did away with the same plastic cast they have been using since 1995 and gave their new controller some decent handles. I think I could actually hold this thing now.

I would personally prefer the analog stick to be placed where the d-pad is as my thumb sits there much more naturally. Of course this would never happen. Loyalist would cry and Sony would be giving up their iconic layout.

Something that seems to be making a "move", or should I say Playstation Move (hurhur!) into the way we play games is motion control. Blegh. Move is built into the controller now...Awesome? Eh. It also has a new touch pad. Not entirely sure why. Placing myself in the mindset of a developer I don't see the point. Maybe I am not creative enough.

Overall though its got some great online features. You can play a game while its literally downloading. Thats good news as it has zero backwards compatibility with any Playsation console evar!  That sucks big time for me as I have no broadband where I now live.

Portal 2 prt 8!

WHAT I hear you say?!  Thats right, after almost 6 years the next clip is done!  Jed got around to mailing me the clips he had for me to put this together. Thats right, mailing me  through the mail because he doesnt have internet.  Unfortunately he didnt send me everything he had so I only have enough to make another clip with his footage.  We were using his since for some reason on my recordings his voice was horribly distorted because of his mic.

The other problem is this video starts at the end of a stage.  That specific stage, for whatever reason, BOTH of us dont have and somehow managed to start recording in the same spot.  I dunno.  Aliens maybe.  So yeah, hope you enjoy!

3rd Game Giveaway bonanza!

So here we go, the next lot of free games!  I've gathered a bunch of games which I thought would cater to many different types of gamer and hopefully MOST of these will be popular.  I know some wont but I'll put them up anyway in case theres someone whos always wanted that specific game.  Again, only place your name for 1 title.  If you've tried for a game in the past, you are free to keep trying for these, that also goes for if you won a game too.  Every week you can put your name down again!  So here we go....



Red Faction: Guerrilla


 




Saints Row 2





Titan Quest Gold + Immortal Throne expansion






I'd like to think all of the above are pretty good games.  I know Titans Quest was quite brilliant for those who enjoy diablo style games.  Saints Row 2 also has a shitload of mods out there you can install.  So, steam name and youtube name.  Some people like to change their steam names every 3 days so I need some way to contact you lol.

My hope is to hand out the winners on saturday morning.  Jed promises me he'll be free and we'll try and get a 2 video livestream thing set up so we can both be on at the same time.  We'll even answer some questions and play a game too.  Fingers crossed.

Winners of the 1st and 2nd game giveaway!

So slight change of plan.  My original hope was to do this over a livestream with Jed present and be able to chat with those who turn up to watch the draw.  Sadly Jed seems to be MIA.  I think hes probably dead.  Also the stream I've tried to set up doesnt seem to be working properly and I'm losing patience with it. 

So now my plan is to have everything ready next saturday which is when Jed says he'll have the full day free, and by then I can have all my stupid stream issues sorted out.  Sorry to disappoint anyone who was looking forward to this.  So for now here are the winners of the previous ones.


Darksiders 1

Steam: mrgoldengangsta


The Witcher 1

Kamishiro Mutsuki


Warhammer 40k

Steam: NawVecBdK


Mark of the Ninja

 Steam:spartain344




Congrats to those who won!  I'd honestly love to give everyone a copy but I'm horribly broke lol.   Tomorrow I plan to put up the new games I'll be giving away and 100% I will broadcast that on some streaming channel, drawing from the hat and all.  Usually I'm very organized but this time I've been found out to be useless.

In case any of the above have changed their steam names I'd be really grateful if you could message me here or on youtube just to verify.  If I dont hear from anyone by tomorrow I'll message them.  Thanks againa nd hope you all come for the next one tomorrow!

Game giveaway time

So after having asked Jed to tell me when he can be around I've finally got a time and day.  Only really took a month lol.  So basically we plan to both be on livestream and drawing the names out of a hat.  The livestream address I cant give right now as I dont even know how to use that place yet.  But I'll figure it out tomorrow cause I'm lazy.  So heres the link to a time converter so you'll know roughly when we plan to do this.

Now what you'll want to do is put these details in as they're mine own.  It'll be around 2am for me on monday morning, so majority of you it'll be creeping up to sunday afternoon.  Just fill the top half like I have it in the pic below-

Below that you can select the city and country you're in.  As I cant be stuffed putting this onto youtube I fully expect to have a turnout of 3, which suits me just fine.  Easier to interact with fewer people.  I dont know how long Jed will be able to stay on but we plan to do a split webcam thing so we can both be on at the same time.  The next time we do this we plan to stream a game.  No idea what game.  But will probably happen next saturday.  Maybe. 

Oh, and I've put up a new toy clip with the completed Batman thing I put up a little while back as unfinished.  I had heaps of fun doing Bane.  And Edward.  I always love using Edward.
