I've been asked many times if I'd incorporate video into my blog, and I've always thought that it's a good idea in principle, as long as it fits in OK. I've added a few representative gameplay videos lately... I think this is a good idea, although they aren't getting a lot of views. I still think it's better to have them than not... I won't be commentating on them, I prefer to do that through the writing. But sometimes, watching a game in action can be a better memory jog for someone. So they're staying, although I might try and find ways to make them more interesting (all suggestions welcome!).
Another idea I had was to start a new series, called Have I Still Got It?, where I play a game I used to love and be really good at many years ago, and see if I've still got the skillz. I figure that might be a slightly more interesting angle, although I doubt, given my time constraints, that I'll be doing it on a regular basis!
The first game I'm having a go at for this feature is one I've written about before... The Human Race.
I'm not going to go into the game too much... I did that last time. I used to play it so much though... mostly because each level had its own astonishing Rob Hubbard tune. I couldn't get enough of them, and the only way to really listen to them properly was to play the game, and I suppose that was what spurred me on. It got to the point where I could easily complete the game on a single life, which goes to show how often I played it just for that music!
The game itself was a good un, to my mind, and well worth the £1.99, even though it only had five screens. But almost everybody else I've talked to and that knows about the game seems to think it's really difficult! That being the case, it seemed like the ideal candidate for an experimental feature. But the question is... have I still got it? Well, watch the video and find out!
The Human Race - have I still got it?
Follow me on my quest to play and write about videogames from throughout gaming history.
I think thats many long hours of practising paying off there Paul! I am playing morheus at the moment trying to get some decent screenshots and I'm fidning it hard. Some of of the levels on humna race are definitly hard so I'd say you;ve stuill got it! I don't think I have! ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha, cheers, guys! I might still have it on this game, but not all of them, as I'm sure we'll find out...
ReplyDeleteTony - Morpheus is a pain to get good screenshots for, because I don't think there are any versions with trainers. So you have to be damn good at it to get anywhere, which I'm not, and never was!
I really enjoyed that great !
ReplyDeletethis website is weird ... This is my first time here
ReplyDeleteI've been inquired many times when I would incorporate movie into my personal weblog, and I've usually Buy Runescape Gold believed that it's a wise idea in rule, providing seothey can fit within Alright. We have added a few representative game play video tutorials recently... I do think this is a good idea, even though they usually are not finding a lot of opinions. My partner and i nevertheless believe it's safer to ask them to absolutely nothing... I will not always be commentating with them, I enjoy to accomplish this through the creating. However occasionally, watching a casino game for action could be a far better recollection Cheap Runescape Gold run for somebody. So they're remaining, even though I might attempt to discover solutions to make sure they are much more fascinating (just about all recommendations delightful!)
