Episode 26: Had To Be There
Blog Catch-up-- Episode 26: Had To Be There
Post-production notes:
This episode came about largely because of a reaction that I had to a video on Retroware posted by Shane (Rerez). Shane didn’t like Tomcat Alley(SEGA CD) very much, and I countered that it was because it’s a “had to be there” kind of game. It’s a game that doesn’t necessarily hold up well against today’s…

Blog Catch-up-- Episode 25: Saluting Sandy:
Post-production notes:
This was my birthday video, and I decided to dedicate it to my mom. After all, if it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t be here.
I talk a bit here about the change between my youth and my adult life, and how my mom’s stance on and support of my video game hobby evolved. For my mom to buy gaming-related gifts for…

Blog Catch-up-- Episode 26: Beginning of the End (2001-present):
Post-production notes:
This is the last in my Birthday Month miniseries of episodes that basically chronicled my life, as it pertained to video games.

I’m still catching up on cross-posting my videos from April here on the blog, so post-production notes will be brief here.
Ridge Racer was the game that started it all for me, when it came to my love of the PlayStation. It was fast, colorful, and tight. It took me a few weeks to learn to clear all of the Galax…

Post-production notes:
As I continue to catch up on posting April’s videos here on the blog, the post-production notes will continue to be brief.
There’s no question that the PlayStation was a big deal to me. From the first time I tried Ridge Racer, I knew that I had to have one– and I continue to enjoy PlayStation games to this…

Blog Catch-up-- Episode 22: My Console Journey Begins (1990-95):
Post-production notes:
I’m a bit late in getting the videos posted here on the blog. College classes were a bit crazy in April, so my time was pretty limited and I devoted it to getting the videos up on YouTube. More detailed post-production notes will resume with Episode 27.
If you had missed out on this episode, though, it’s a…

Post-production notes:
So, yes. My birthday is a big deal– at least, to me it is. I’m making almost a whole month out of it, at least in terms of episode content.
I’ve seen, played, and experienced a lot in my nearly 42 years. 38 of those years have involved playing some kind of video game. I’ve written about this before, but video…
