Volodymyr Ezhov was killed fighting off Russians in the town of Bakhmut. He was one of the game developers for STALKER Clear Sky, and his likeness appears in STALKER Call of Pripyat in game with the character Loki. I don't know anything about him other than that he was in the game, so I figured the best homage was to give the game a replay. Haven't booted it up in.... a long time. Six, Seven years, maybe longer, but I had fun playing it, and it's cool that his legacy was contributing in small part to the fun that I, and tens of thousands like me, had when playing these games.

Lots of hacks out there, but this is my first one. Playing off a real (hacked) SNES cartridge on a real SNES.

Tomb Raider Anniversary. I played this game for two hours. This is a summary of my entire experience so I don't have to make a longer video with more commentary.

I play the game. Maybe ranked.

Wasn't planning on doing anything today since I was scheduled to work, but it snowed and they decided not to open the store, so I'm just kinda hanging out doing this.

Recorded Live on my Rumble Channel. Not quite a 100% playthrough, but I hit up all the levels. Perhaps the greatest game of a generation.

I try out a game I've never played before in my life. It was recommended to me on Steam because I played Spyro recently. When I told people I was going to play it, they seemed to get excited.

Playing Spyro Reignited Trilogy. I figured I should go live for a bit, and this game is pretty fun so I chose it.

Recorded live on my Rumble Channel. This the the Pacman World remake, and I enjoyed that game when I was younger, so I was very interested in this updated version. All in all, it's just a good game.

Recorded live on my Rumble channel. No doubt the release of this game was not smooth in the slightest, especially on the PC. The most effort on development seems to have been on consoles, and best gameplay on PC happens when you emulate those conditions. It may well be that this will be a much better, more playable game in several months when it's been patched to stop random stutters and crashes. That being said, stability isn't the only problem with this game. Content creators have come out and called it a disappointment, and that the game isn't fun. I am not going to hop on any hate trains unless my own experience with the game justifies this. That being said, I question to myself while I'm playing the game: am I having fun?

Streamed live on my Rumble Channel. First attempt at playing this game was pretty awful. Too buggy, controls didn't seem to respond. 10 GB patch later, I've decided to simply start over on an easier difficulty and use lessons learned to play the game.

(part 2) This is supposed to be a horror game right? I think it failed at that. It's more a gore fest than anything else. A lot of people are trashing this game right now. I'm going to play a bit more before I give a final answer, but I haven't really had anything but problems and frustrations as a first impression. I felt good about the last save, but that was mostly because I made it past where I got stuck before.

(part 1) There was a 10GB patch to Callisto Protocol, and I wasn't doing so hot on my playthrough, so I'm going to start over and work through the campaign again. The game is by no means bug free, and a post patch test resulted in the game crashing a few times, so this attempt to play might be brief and frustrating.

There's one area left and then I've "beat" the game. The story mode will come to an end. There's still some puzzles to be beat after that, and I'll explore that later . For now, the goal of this session is to free Ms. Pacman and beat Toc Man.

I think I finally got my capture card working. Now it's time to play the games I've been waiting for. Starting with a game I know and love, it's time for some Super Mario World.

About time I finished playing Pacman World RePac. I enjoyed this game so far, and I'd like to complete it before moving on.

I did a stream earlier in the day and it wasn't satisfactory, so I'm checking my settings and seeing what needs to be changed to smooth things out. First variable is time, since the connection could just be bad due to lots of people being on the web. Second variable is my recording and streaming software, since everything was smooth on my side, except for random stutters that the game had on account of it's newness. Third is my connection to Rumble. It may be that Rumble is not yet ready for high bit rate HD game streaming, in which case I'll have to adjust my expectations.

The stream didn't go well IMO. Dropped frames, I kept getting owned, and then I got called in to work, so it was shorter than I intended. At least the dropped frames thing is something I can work around. This is the backup recording of the game taken at the same time as the live stream. If there's choppiness in this video, it's something I'm seeing too. Dropped frames is usually a network issue, so I may just have to stream when there's less people on the internet, like at night or in early morning hours.

After the clown levels, I expected an evil clown to jump out at me throwing fire and burping poison gas at me. A first person race level was not anticipated.

Mature Content.

This level was challenging for me. The burning stoves, my poor depth perception, my lack of skills, really all stacked up to a struggle. I felt good about finishing this one, and concerned about what the boss might be.

Killer clowns and red hot stoves. Who came up with this fun house? It's psychotic!

Nothing says clowns like poison gas.

I'm not good at bullet hell games, and this boss level is a shoutout to both Galaxian and those old bullet hell games, but I do well enough anyway and it's fun for for someone on my level to work through it.

Not as bad as the last episode, but I fumble through this one. Once more with determination!
