Next on Problem Gamer: “Super Spiked V’Bowl”!

The summer’s high, and the feeling is right… for getting plastered into the sand by an atomic spike! You won’t be feeling the physical pain in Super Spike V’Ball, the arcade-style beach volleyball game on NES, but fret not–there’s mental anguish aplenty. We’ve arrived at the oldest school of all my problem gaming, and I’m [...]

Official Test Results of the Kodak Zx1, now in video form

Not sure how WordPress will handle the 720p of Youtube, but here’s a look at my backyard through the eye of my new camera, the Zx1. Don’t worry, I’m not going to be posting a lot of these barely-relevant and semi-pointless videos; I’ve just had to get a few (thousand) kinks worked out of the [...]

HD on the way

So, I’ve finally joined the 10-year-old ‘new’ millenium and gotten myself a (cheap but passably good) HD camcorder, the Kodak Zx1. Hurray! Trying to give the show the best chance it’s got, I guess. Look forward to some HD Hyperturbomegamightypizzacats PG! Hey, when in Rome…

EPISODE 3: “Harvest Moonshine”, Part 2!

YES! After much creative indecision (and lots of hacking and scrapping), I’ve finally cranked out the fun-filled follow-up to “Harvest Moonshine”! In this part, I take on a challenge of my own making: Get rich quick, and build up a (somewhat) respectable farm in the process (to show I didn’t just hoard all my money). [...]

New Episode goes live TOMORROW!

…By which I mean later today… which should make this announcement even better! Making “Harvest Moonshine: Part 2″ has made me a whole lot of crazy–but it was quite some fun, too. I really hope that comes across when the finished product goes live in the next 24 hours. The project was perhaps a bit [...]

*Bump* (wait.. do people do that for blogs?)

Just showing you that this thing is still alive. The second part of Harvest Moonshine is well underway, but it’s also a larger undertaking than any of the videos I’ve done so far. Why? Well, here’s a textual sneak peek: I’m effectively starting the game with 30g instead of 500g With “problem gaming” in mind, [...]

We’re BAAA-AACK

I’m no longer in San Francisco but back in my native Canada, just in time for E3 to be finishing up. I had a great trip, despite the limited internet access and the notable lack of video game culture, even in the city’s Japantown. There are other things to do when seeing a new city, [...]
