Aliens 4k review - early access download

I decided that if I was going to do this video that I needed to do it in HDR, which complicates YouTube uploads in a lot of ways. Specific metadata had to be injected to the file for YT to display ...

Surprise- Majora's Mask is on PC now

Sorry for the lack of an upload last month, but I couldn't share this video until the recomp was ready for release. Obviously, as you can tell by the video, I'm really happy about this development,...

RE2 fixed camera mod showcase

This mod was a surprise to me and I wanted to cover it very quickly while I was still waiting for Jimbo Jams Cameron's AI-enhanced discs to arrive in the mail. The mod is a great time, even when i...

Cade: The Tortured Crossing review

I'm still working out some details but the unlisted video is available to watch now- clicking this or ordering the full movie from Breen may put you on some kind of NSA watchlist.

Robocop: Rogue City early access

Long thought to be a myth, the fabled Robocop video is here.  I died while making it and had to be put into a mechanical body, which I guess could be considered ironic but I didn't really thin...

Video delayed due to minor viral snafu

I'm great at Covid.  I've been collecting the strains and won't stop until I've "gotta caught them all" (Pokemon).

Music pack 3 download and a Robocop sampler

This song batch includes most of the cover music used in my videos since the last pack upload (in 2019!).  I'm offering them in FLAC this time, but if the size is too large there's an AAC opti...

Mario Wonder Review Early Access

I didn't think I had any particularly special insights into Mario to offer so this video is just for fun only- this is serious.  If you watch it wrong and get hurt it's your own damn fault. View Post

Halloween Horror Review

The video isn't quite public yet but you can go ahead and watch now.  This ended up being much more massive than I expected and, as I said in the last post, it'll take at least one more video ...

Halloween video update

The horror game review collection is coming along well and the editing should be done within a week (I'm aiming for the 27th or earlier).  I wanted to let you know that the final game list end...

Update on video and texture progress

As you've probably seen by now, the RE4 Remake video is up as well as some dumb April Fool's thing.  But during March I also spent a lot of time on textures, including starting work on View Post

Update: All My Shit is Fucked

Last time I checked in I was starting work on Metroidvania part 5.  Then Goldeneye finally released, so I paused that video to do an update on Switch Online.  Then new systems got announc...
