  1. One more video while another uploads:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNnxv4qUmok

    Larry "Liontamer's" judging round in Apples to Apples. Word: "Funny."

    9-volt's "nintendo classics" or something like that level

    9-Volt? As in this guy?

    Edit: The video you've all been waiting for:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a07NHlfccAA

    Shiran's special talent ;-)

    Edit2: Is the framerate really sucky for you guys too? The original videos look much better...

  2. I can't believe I'm the first to "YouTube"

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqWAm_kp3Xc

    DrumUltimA on WarioWare

    (what was the name of this level?)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it0wfZtfrc4

    Jared judging in Apples to Apples. Word: "Emotional"

    ..."Emo," LOL

    All of the original movie files are available on request. I'll have the jam sessions and Shiran's solo up later when I have the time to wait for the upload...

    Edit: Boy, I really have a really annoying laugh, don't I huh.gif

  3. Nice picts so far!

    Really love that statue! And sorry I missed lunch and what not; looks like fun.

    I've been freeing up space on my hard drive to make room for my own Meetup picts (those lengthy videos eat up space like a mutha!), but should be up by tomorrow night.

    Question: Should I post links to the videos in my webspace (in .mov format) or upload them to YouTube? I got a couple jam sessions, Liontamer and Jared's judging in Apples to Apples and DrumUltimA on WarioWare.

    --And oh yeah, Shiran's, um, special talent :nicework:

    Thx again; was really a blast and great seeing you all either again or for the first time! :-)

    Edit: Shit! iPhoto acted up again and deleted the majority of my pictures! I'm attempting recovery off the camera card as we speek; seems to be working well enough...

    Edit2:

    Good times; I was honestly a little tired, and wary of navigating my way out of Baltimore to Delaware that same night for Easter w/ the fam, so was a little more reserved than usual, but still had a good time.

    Nah, just having you there was cool. Manning the bongos and keeping those Red Sox fans in line!

    ...I kid, iKid. ;-)

  4. I'm down for Scrabble.

    Oh yeah, and does anyone have a Deluxe Scrabble board? I have the travel edition, which doesn't fit the new tiles I bought...

    But if worst comes to worst, Apples to Apples ftw.

    Edit: Okay guys, sad to report I had a fender bender last night. :evil: The car is still perfectly drivable, but due to handling insurance stuff this morning I'll be between a half hour and 1.5 hours late :-(

    My cell phone is 717-645-4418. Pixie: If I need to call someone, does your cell phone number you gave me last year still work? And I know Taucer posted his in here, but it's apparently gone now.

  5. Hey again, quick question:

    I have a friend who lives in Arlington, VA and who I'll be staying with Friday and Saturday nights. I offered her the chance to come to the Meetup and she'll think it over but will probably say no. She's not much of a gamer, but she does like D.D.R. and Japanese food. And sings in a symphonic metal band.

    So I was thinking maybe she could join us for the dinner and gaming parts later in the day (I for one will be bringing StepMania with 2 pads). But more importantly, if any of you are coming from that area could you maybe give me a ride in so I could ride with her back? She still might need some convincing but it'll be cool_chick + 1 ;-) ...

  6. I'll be glad to help you decide on what colors, patterns and so on you will be using for the wedding.

    Gonna have to go with the white/gray, blue/dark-blue, or--if you're old-school--orange!

    *also, just had the semi-horrible mental image of djp at the reception...* :-)

    --And oh yeah, congradulations dude.

  7. SEGA: Hay guys remember when Sonic was good? We're bringing that back with the new one! Honestly this time!

    Fans: Yay!

    Sega: Oops lol, sorry guys.

    Fans: Boo!

    Repeat for the next 7 titles.

    QFE.

    I've lost pretty much all trust for the responsible parties since Heroes promised and failed to deliver.

    Never bought a Sonic game in my life. Only ever finished Sonic 3, so I'm not comparing. The 3D games simply came off as poor mascot showrunners to me.

    Probably in the minority, though.

    So you do realize that that was only "half a game," right?

    Speaking of which, according to the stories I've heard the Genesis titles were rush jobs too. But the difference, I suppose, is that the gameplay heald up. Judging from those and messing around in the debug modes, I compare those titles to a stage set. The immediate surroundings were pretty and fun, but if you venture out of them to where you're not supposed to go, you'll see the underbelly that sadly never left the series and is now threatening to derail the entire thing.

    Edit: OCR member Nineko has a whole collection of Genesis Sonic bugs up on YouTube.

  8. Whether we want it or not, however, a PS3 remake would make a ton of money. I'm personally for it. Imagine how great it would be not to have prerendered backgrounds, etc.

    Want leads to purchase, purchase leads to money. SquareEnix doesn't get a dime if (the collective) people don't want them to...

    And all this back-and-forth has me wondering: Are Japanese FFVII fanboys as rabid as the American ones are?

  9. Hey all.

    I was talking to zircon awhile back about his Final Fantasy 7 ReMix project, and mentioned that back in 2003 a forum member by the name of frollo attempted to create "FF7: The Musical." Zircon said he didn't know about it, and I imagine a lot of you weren't around to hear this great body of work either, so here's the story:

    He had created a series of "demos" of basically him signing original lyrics over several OST songs in the guises of the game's characters. His plan was to then hold auditions for the various characters and do a proper recording and, I guess, ultimately release it.

    However, when he created the thread about it and recorded and released his first demo,

    "Ode to Green (Main Theme)"

    He was ridiculed. A lot. (Once you hear it, you'll hear why ;) .)

    But still he insisted it was a demo, and not to judge the quality but the content (which I was one of the only who did). He soon releasing more songs, albeit no longer imitating the characters:

    "Cosmo Canyon"

    "It Must Be Love (Interrupted by Fireworks)"

    "Role Playing Games (Cait Sith's Theme)"

    "Anxious Heart"

    These too were ridiculed in their own ways. He got a lot of shit for that blast of mic feedback in "Anxious Heart" and that ending of "Cosmo Canyon." He said he would be doing the voice for Cait Sith himself, and I guess that there really wasn't half bad.

    Not too long after this came the blowing-off-steam joke track: "Jenova Rap". And the last 2 tracks he posted before dissapearing were:

    "The Story of Sepiroth (part 1)"

    "Die Judicii (Judgement Day)"

    These are some of the weakest tracks in the project, imo. Really don't know what to say about them...

    I don't know where frollo is now; his lasts posts (http://www.ocremix.org/forums/member.php?u=309) are from the end of 2003. I think he had a good thing going thematically with this project--not the greatest thing ever, but interesting nonetheless--but could never get it off the ground. Ah well, enjoy these MP3s either again or for the first time.

    PS. Each of his song postings were accompanied by lyrics in the thread, which I transposed first into the song comment fields, then the iTunes "lyrics" information tab once they came out with that. Let me know if there are any problems, K?

    Edit: The links above are dead, but all the files are now contained in a zip: http://home.comcast.net/~digamejh/online_storage/ff7musical.zip

  10. Who's the important-looking suited guy and what is he doing?

    He had a camera and lighting guy to my left when I took this. Don't know who he was working for...

    Also, couldn't help myself, here's 3 more picts:
