    I think what Steve suggested would take the show to a whole new level. Sure the editing & cutting to and from shots would be an increased workload, but it'd be so worthwhile.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,063 ✭✭✭Doge


    It would be great to have video clips of the games mentioned or even just artwork or screenshots faded into while people are talking about a game in depth.

    The screenshots would be a much faster way I suppose.

    We were actually thinking of doing some endurance videos maybe something like game Centre CX. I was actually thinking doing a charity endurance run of Legend of Dragoon. It 's a lot of work though so maybe only have themas once offs.

    As for making these video podcasts, we could do that but again it's a lot of work and I know nothing about video editing. It's worth thinking about but again it's about getting the time to do them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    I'd love to do something like that but it'd have to be a game with unlimited continues or lots of save points as I would like to start over again if we died!

    As I said I could help out with the video editing if required.
    Here's a quick clip I put together in literally 5 mins to show sort of what I mean(bit rough but you get the idea).
    Imagine the latest podcast playing in the background as the game plays on screen, you discussing the 3 games etc. Of course music could be faded in and out and all that stuff but it gives an idea of what it might be like.

    It's very basic really, I just grabbed 3 longplays from youtube and stuck them on a 1080p composition and dropped the contra marquee in the background.
    Roughly sized them and positioned them and that was it really. Oh, and dropped a mp3 as background music.

    Hey! I was great when we did the podcast that RTE filmed:



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,790 ✭✭✭Jack burton


    Ok go to 1:35, that is the greatest opening to any segment ever!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,885 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Myself and Sera are around this weekend if there's a podcast.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex

  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,885 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer

    Fair play to you Sera, sticking to your guns about the mansion in the first Tomb Raider game, I knew you were right!

    Not a bad show, you guys probably could have gone into more detail in some areas however that's only a small point. Overall I thought it a good listen.

    I think everyone should listen to hear me catch Retr0 out on that *proudproud/it'sallihave*. Would have liked to talk more about TR3 and Lost Artefact a bit but ¯\('_')/¯

    And a beat em ups one, get Dr Doom in.
    I could join in, if DOA or Tekken got mentioned, could talk about some snes ones like Ranma 1/2, Doomsday Warrior and TMNT Tournament as well lol just gonna leave ye talk for SF yourselves

    yus
    I still want in on something ..ANYTHING!
    This weekend is out as family stuff is happening , but I'm actually free most of the time at the mo so I could do the odd weekday if it crops up.

    Would the whole concept of how arcade conversions got scaled down (or in rare cases didnt) for the 8 bit computers (and the glory that its the Mastersystem , plus that grey yoke nintendo threw together) and were so widely different between platforms and so on be a bit too vague of a topic?

    Normally I'd defend Coolock. But seeing as I had a rock thrown at my head when leaving work the other night I guess I can't.

    I'm having a bit of a crazy week... but I'll check and see what I can do this weekend and get back to you.

    Would look forward to listening to that alright just as long as you don't ignore the elephant in the room -> Darius Vs Salamander/Everything else etc. :D

    Lol at the pics pyong - no idea who or what that is in the first one.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,328 ✭✭✭Pyongyang


    Whenever I drive through the place I always pack 4 spare tyres and wheels in the boot as I'm sure the people that inhabit the place have the capability to nick your wheels while you are driving.

    I concur, plus I have an alibi for my being unable to attend so it's not me conspiring! They're just afraid of the Darius excellence that destroys all other shooting games in its path!
