OMEGATHON THREAD! (Bow down before your OMEGA-MASTERS)
Posts
Also I picked up my own Wii, finally. I was going to get one next month, but Omegathon is a great excuse to get one now.
(You just say the letters)
Not to pimp my site out too much, but here are some videos showing the 07 event and my impressions:

Also, here is most of the 08 Omegathon rounds from my youtube page:

Honestly, luck plays a large part in this tournament, but the people who take it seriously are going to get further. That means getting all of the games and playing them a lot. For the games you aren't that good at (Quake 3 FPS for me in 07), just remember that you don't have to be first. You just have to do well enough to not be eliminated.
And for the round 4 rhythm game, practice all the instruments you can and pray you don't have partners that suck. Rock Band put me out last year and I was super pissed. It took my friends quite a while to calm me down. But at the end of the day, it just wasn't meant to be.
Hope that didn't stress you guys out! Remember to have fun!
PS: If anyone wants any advice or anything I'll gladly help out. PM me any questions you got.

I really hope we don't have to use the wii wheels for mario kart! I was never able to get the hang of those...

Oh thank you for bringing that up. I was talking with Gabe and Tycho before the first Rock Band event and asked them why they chose the games they did. They had some good reasoning and I accepted it. As I was about to walk away they said and I quote:
"Don't forget you are here for the sole purpose of our amusement."
Therefore, you better get yourself a Wii Wheel out and start practicing now.

Practicing the wheel it is! To arms my fellow Omeganauts!

but luckily I was practicing Halo 3 for the FPS round.
And the final round... retro? or new? Hopefully they stick with the retro games, they work well for the Omegathon Final Rounds.
Retro-schmetro. Final round needs to be Duke Nukem Forever
I know the words to a good amount of their songs plus,
If you make to that round, you will be playing awsome music in front of a lot of people!
LOL. I stand by this statement.
+1
Though, come on, we LOVE being used for their amusement.

THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID
Starfox 64 deathmatch.

<Qs23> I just need to get my dicks in a row
<prox> i work for dicks
#paforums_pax, all about the dicks.
I think that they will go with DJ Hero. It's single player orientated so the omeganauts won't have to rely on other bandmates, and no one has played it yet so it's impossible to practice.
You gotta believe!

No, it's gonna be Patapon 2.
That can be classified as a rhythm game, right?
DUDE. Mario Kart 64 as the final round on Rainbow Road. That would be so awesome I can't even describe it.
Until someone makes "the jump" and gains a 45 second lead. That used to be the only "allowable" cheat in my gaming circle because it was such a high risk maneuver.
I hope its Parappa or Um Jammer.
Holy fuck. Best idea ever.
Rainbow Road on the 64 was one of the most boring track of the entire series.
And I get really confused. :P
And LOL Nomad! Proxford is definitely the good, fancier version of Prox from an alternate universe.
OR They want us all to assume it's Beatles Rock Band so that they can fuck with us by throwing down DDR or Frequency or Donkey Konga or something.

Actually the other reason I can think of, of keeping it a secret is so you don't necessarily practice one particular game or instrument.

But yeah it'll probably be Beatles or DJ Hero... which would be awesome. (Even though we can't melt ghosts.)
