So I'm back into working on my let's play. I've decided to make every platinum event video before I start the lets play. That'll get rid of a shit load of fiddly work load during the actual making of missions etc.
Some of these are proving more difficult than originally anticipated. Boy have I forgotten how hard some of these events are.
Anyway, I wanted to ask a question: do I have to use the arcsoft total media capture module to record? Because it doesn't have any shortcuts and I'm switching between the same monitor since I have both ps3 and pc plugged into it. I mean it's fine it's just a bit annoying to have to keep switching as I record small videos.
Especially when I keep messing up and have to keep stopping and starting it so I don't have to keep a gig of raw file for a minutes worth of event.
At the moment I record three full tries including running back to the start area (it looks neater in the video to have the start screen then the attempt in the final vid) then I trim the intended vid using avisynth and avpmod -> encode the file with megui. These will have no commentary because they're optional in terms of the lets play. I wont expect people to watch them unless they actually want to get a platinum.

Adus you were right, the T40's lp of NSMBWii is pretty goddamn hilarious
I am eagerly awaiting another swear ladened joshofalltrades LP...
19 hours this semester. I have a lot of pent-up frustrations, I'm sure everyone will notice.
Yeah, I think I meant to tell you, I think I saw your I Wanna Be The Guy Lp. If it's the one I'm thinkin of, thumbs up. I think I wanna do an Lp but it would probably have to wait til summer, school schedule is crazy this semester. Anyways, I'm open to suggestions:rotate:
not really LP style but it's loosely connected. So it could be of interest to some of you.
It's a guy who's playing through every Nes game in chronological order, it's kind of a documentary style, he talks about the background of each game and compares them to other versions that were available.
He's also started doing the Mega Drive as well, or the Genesis as some of you forners know it.
Be forewarned: this is Devil Mode, and coming up on what I'm told is the hardest boss in the game. Expect lots and lots of death. (Anyone who's seen me play this should be used to that by now.)

Holy freaking wow. And it's in handy download form so I can watch it on my TV. Sold.

I'm a little bit into the newest episode (first I've seen) and I can already tell it's got some value. Not really a set of LPs, but it's commentary enough and showing me something new already. This is getting into the OP special link list for damn sure, very nice find there atat.
I just watched the first episode and am a bit into the second. While he doesn't play a lot of each game, he shows off enough of each game to get a good feel for it. It is also very informative and interesting, as long as you are interested about the history of Nintendo and the NES.
Recommended!

In an attempt to please Adus, I am now working on the next thread update, which is including PM'd requests, the link above to Chrontendo, and Helloween's link that he didn't PM to me but I know it's somewhere around here. Oh, and the whole removal of abandoned LPs thing is happening too. But I didn't do any pre-screening so it'll take time.
It'll also take time because I'm eating and watching Cowboy Bebop. But hey at least I'm not feeding my WoW addiction.

The updating is complete.
A very, very important announcement now resides at the top of the OP, which people need to read ASAP. It explains everything I've done this afternoon, my reasons behind it, and new time-tables I'm putting into play to keep the management of this thread more thorough (and Adus will finally believe I care about / take care of this).
Maybe it's the hard-ass mood I'm in today, but we're going to start striving for quality. Keep in mind, I still demand of everyone to be constructive in their criticism and for everyone to not get into stupid petty fights, that sort of thing.
I can't get the guide section to stay centered. This is a forum issue I am completely unfamiliar with. Is it the spoiler nesting? It'll only center if you click to open all the way to the movement events. Halp!
(I've sent the pm to henroid.)

Man I'm 2 minutes into the Castlevania 64 at the SA LP Archive, and Evil Tim is quick to remind me why he's so great (I've heard him on other LPs). He's quick & witty, and also knows when to stop talking and how to explain things.

I've been considering making Bloodlines my first video LP, but I haven't played it since I had Sega Channel, and I certainly never beat it.
Also Evil Tim knows how to fill air-time, hot damn.

You'd want to play it a few times, like the rest of Konami's Genesis games, it is brutal and unforgiving

absolutely bizarre that the OP doesn't have the KOTOR2 let's play under recommended SA titles as it's one of the best Let's Plays in the history of the internet.
Wait, you really deleted the links to all the uncompleted ones? You couldn't just snarkily yell at them and put them under a spoiler so that the people it offends don't have to look at them?

Yeah, this.
Dammit Henroid, now surrealitycheck will be able to pretend there has never been a TRU LP.
And he will never finish it.
But I want my dapper English gentleman Let's Plays!
Well, you go into a toy story, bring a video camera, hide inside a gigantic plush bear and play all night, recording yourself.
Actually, camcorder LPs suck. So if you want to do it properly, install FRAPS and record the security cam footage.

Yes I deleted a bunch. But not all. Pretty much if 10+ updates were in an abandoned LP, I moved them to a separate list. Most of the ones I deleted had 2 or 3 updates.

I've invited the people behind LPs they've started (but not finished) to make a case for keeping their stuff listed, provided they commit to updating it. If surrealitycheck were to make a case, and an update, it would return to the list.

I'm always a bit sad by how little talk there is in my LP threads I'd be really happy if people talked about the game I LP and what they like/don't like or their own experiences with it, but not much ever comes out of it.

It's a bit demoralizing
my old threads have pages of post just by me updating/bumping to let people know it's not dead. Stop being a baby. :P
