Who is to blame for all the confusion about what OCR is about? Well it's in the name! We don't remix game audio! I mean even look at that nasty new little favicon with the giant R. Oughta change it back, or put the focus on OC

We've got something almost done by the Coop, so we are pretty comfortable to hit this June 10th deadline. No hold-ups from not having artwork done! I'm still coughing like a sailor and nose issues, but given enough hours I can warm up my voice well enough to try to sing, and my hearing is decent. I can resume listening to some WIPs. PLEASE, to anyone working on songs or who has a WAV they need to send in, please do so ASAP! The closer we get to the deadline without them, the more anxiety the Bogue and I will have.. and it will stink to have to cut anything out because it's not done on time. I'll be starting on my mix tonight and will hopefully get it finished. The source material is really good.

Hi! I played with the PS Now beta on PS4. It's also available on PS3. I used it to stream a PS3 game on my PS4 and I took some screenshots of the game selection and various screens using the ps4's share button. In game screenshots were disabled. Here is a gallery: http://imgur.com/gallery/9Wq3g/ First image: This is the Now beta's icon as it appears on my "dashboard". It was a very small download. Clicking on it leads to the second image. Second image: There's an options menu on the left which isn't shown, which has options like "All Games" and other stuff. This disclaimer says to use an ethernet connection to play the games so it works best. I used wifi which is shared between many devices, and only gave partial bandwidth to testing out PS Now. Third image: First part of the game selection. I wasn't impressed at all. I ended up testing with All Zombies Must Die, which is a cheesy zombie game that actually feels out of the ps2 era gameplay-wise. Fourth image: More game selection! Fifth image: It tested the connection when I told it to play the game. Then there was a popup that said to press the PS button to switch to the game. I did that, and pressed "start" and it immediately went into the game. I thought the credit slides at the beginning seemed choppy, but that choppiness wasn't present in the actual game. Not shown: you can rent for 1 day, 1 week, or 1 month. All of the options during the beta were "Free". I do not know what pricing will be like for the final, open product. I didn't actually notice the jpg compression until a trophy popped up and I could see it around the text. It's noticeable only if you are really looking for it, as some fuzziness around the edges of things. The game was responsive despite the other things I was downloading and had using up the bandwidth on my PC (possibly contributing to the jpg compression) and I did not notice any lag. I also did not notice any audio glitches, and the quality of the audio seemed normal and uninterrupted. The ease of use is very great. I love the PS4's UI. Everything loads up quickly and is easy to navigate. I hope the game selection improves. I also hope we are given the ability to stream games we already own on disc or even digitally, from the ps3 era, on our PS4s.

Awesome!! Congratulations! It's hard to hear over all the explosions but from what I could tell it seemed awesome. Would you ever be open to collaborating with vocals for OCR?

Hopefully it comes out this year... srs... but in the meantime ff2 might come out.. which is kind of amazing.

Hello? (ello ello ello ello ello) ...echo joke.... Uhh anyway, was wondering where I can send mix notes for an old mix I subbed and passed that has pretty much no mix notes :3

You go sixto!

If they get covered that will be great, but if they don't it's not a huge deal. I think people have claimed all the most important stuff.

I've got the flu so I'm gonna leave current WIP listening to Chernabogue if anyone sends WIPs (make sure to cc both of us) I sent out a tweet on the tweeter asking for an 8bit cover artist. It got retweetered by OCR. Hopefully something good comes along. If anyone knows someone who could make a cool 8bit style cover I think that would be pretty fitting.

We're coming up on June 5th and we need more wips, or more importantly, WAVs! FF2 is done now, so all eyes be on FF3....

Call it "Is Actually Soccer not Football"

Maybe that WAS the best part. Maybe all the other parts not in the preview are awful.

Here it is on tindeck, try this: http://tindeck.com/listen/lozq I've got like 5 seconds worth of acoustic break and that's the part he puts in the preview

So I sent the album in earlier to OCR!! Very exciting! Been listening to the whole thing too. It's so darn good. As far as I know, 9 out of the 21 songs are already passed the panel.. that's almost half the album.. so hopefully the eval is easy and swift!

Oh maan I wrote and recorded my whole song on the 15th the WAV is in your facebook inbox Now the waiting game for people to hear it... !

Happy birthday Double in-n-out, so kinky. such cake. wow

I left TGH a message on Facebook, we shall see what he's got eventually! I'm not too worried. He'll probably have something (It'd be super rare for a musician to finish a song and then lose it unless there's a hard drive failure or something) I'd like to have WAVs so I can make FLACs/MP3s for release and have everything be consistent. Not a fan of inconsistency in that way.. Hopefully everything is ok, just gonna wait for word.
