Time to get started

Yeah, I know we don't have many vids up yet. That's about to change.

I've found some screenwriting software, and on my list now is everything else I will personally need to begin making machinima. We will get a cheap microphone for each of us, but one with okay quality, and begin recording lines.

Then I'll put that together with the recording I'll be doing, and we'll have a new series!

That's all for now.

Long time

Nobody reads this, but I'm posting anyway.

I haven't felt like updating for a while, which is why it's been almost two months since I last posted.

That's pretty much it.

Oh, also, Bungie signed a publishing deal with Activision. Which is actually a good thing, because Activision wont have any power over Bungie since they don't own them, they will ONLY publish the games.

Also, Bungie's next game (after Reach) will be multi-platform.

That's all,

SOUNDWAVE'S FIRST VIDEO

That's right folks, Soundwave's very first video (featuring Aftermath) is up for viewing on the channel, and can be found here! Please go over and watch it now and ignore the horrible, horrible quality due to soundwave having no choice but to film his television!

Torture

I'm having to play Daikatana to get footage for that commentary, and it's not easy forcing yourself to play a game you really don't like. Plus I'm having to look at a walkthrough because the game is confusing as hell with the crappy graphics and the nonexistent storyline, as far as getting from point A to point B, you end up going to points C through Z first before you figure out just what the hell point B is. All in all, it's a waste of what could have been a genre-changing game, and I'm surprised someone like John Romero ever let it get published like this, because it honestly feels like an unfinished product.

But the commentary will be worth it, and maybe we can even make a series of commentaries if this one goes well.

Thanks,

New comp!

Shaw is back up and running with a new pc, so that video should be up around 2-3 weeks from now, if everything goes as planned.

We can has problem?

So Shaw's computer broke, which means we wont be able to do the commentary video just yet. That's about it 'cause it's 7 a.m. here.

Upcoming Video!

So I have recently installed and begun playing Daikatana, an epic failure of what could have and should have been a great game. What I'm going to do is get half an hour or so of footage of me playing it, then the four of us will commentate on it and add the audio file over the video.

Should be good with all of us in it, hopefully it will be up in two to three weeks.

Programming

So I'm learning PHP, my first programming language, and I just finished setting up an apache server and MySQL database.

Oh
My
God


I open it up at localhost to find that I have no clue what I'm doing, thank god for Google or I'd have been done right there! It's really rather daunting to look at a new language (especially a programming language!) for the first time, and it's a good thing I'm keeping a journal of this stuff because I would never remember it on my own.

I'm going to have to take this one step at a time, and extremely slowly, but I think I can manage it.

tl;dr, programming is effing hard to learn

New vid

Well, I say new. Truth is it's part two of what started a month or so ago, since Aftermath is a self described lazy uploader.

Anyway, you can find the video here, give it a watch, it's a Scout commentary.

Nothing much happening still, honestly I don't even know why I'm updating this blog since NOBODY F*CKING READS IT. Lol. I guess it's mostly out of boredom, and it is somewhat satisfying to see my own thoughts and words written down on a page accessible to the world's developed population.

That said, I'm out for now. Maybe by the time I make another post someone will be reading these things.

Yo

Not much going on as of late, which is why I haven't really been posting any updates. We've mostly been slacking off and enjoying all our stuff from Christmas, and anticipating one of the biggest, if not THE biggest years in gaming.

The question is, how the heck am I going to afford all these games??

Oh well, time will tell. For now, I'm out.

Guess Who's Back!

Well, guess who just set up their brand new PC? That would be me, and by me I mean Coverfire!

So, expect more updates and other things now that I'll be on more often.
