Oh, another thing. Im going to be displaying gameplay footage most of the time. Do you think its necessary to record myself and have picture in picture or would the gameplay be enough?

Lol sounds good to me, I have no idea how long its going to take for me to get my first video up, but rest assured when i finally do, I'll post it here for you all to check out. I think I'm going to go old school on the first one. I've got an itch to play some Adventures of Dino Riki so I'll start there

Look professional. It might sound simple but so many collector videos out there, to be honest, look like crap. Shaking handheld camera, poor incandescent lighting, stuttering speech. Tripods don't cost much and don't be ashamed to record a few takes if you mess up your lines; you can edit later.

I have a DSLR that shoots 1080p, i got an elgato to record my footage, Not sure about what Im doing for a mic yet but I'll figure that out. The only thing im worried about here is titles and animations. Dont have much experience with that

If you could give a straightforward review of the game, that would be very awesome, in my opinion.  List out potential positives and negatives to inform fellow gamers of what you found annoying or awesome.  Most likely you will have some bias here and there but who doesn't?

This is pretty much my goal, simple straightforward review. I plan on doing 2 videos for each game. The first a full review as I'm playing the game and the second will be a quick 30 second or so summary in case people dont want to actually watch me play.

So, I've decided to kill some of my free time by starting a Youtube channel where I play/review games. I picked up an elgato so I can record my footage and have pretty much everything else I need. The format I'd like to take is pretty casual, It's going to be from the perspective of just an average gamer. I want to talk about what its like being just an OK gamer playing any particular game. I already know there are a million gaming youtube channels out there; So what can I do to be unique and set myself apart from those other reviews, What would you like to see in an honest review. Im looking for any ideas or suggestions you might all have to help me make this channel a place where people actually want to go to hear about video games. Thanks guys

Could anyone recommend an inexpensive battery that will work with the PSP 3000 system. All I can seem to find is either crappy third party batteries with horrible reviews or the extended Sony battery which is half the price of a brand new PSP.

there are actually a lot of games i have never seen in the wild but the ones that frustrate me the most are how i can't find any of the nes mega man games. like what the hell? i know some of the later ones and the first one is harder to find but id at least like to see 2 and 3 in person just once (so i can buy it...)

also dragon warrior 2-4. i want these so bad.

If you don't mind a lack of a box, I have a spare DWII kart that I'd be willing to part with pretty cheap. (I would need to make sure it saves, though. I got it some 10 years ago with a small lot of games, and have never touched it.)

If he doesnt want your DWII cart i would be interesting in seeing what kinda price you were looking for.

My joy for my local Goodwill continues. See this post here to find out why:

Man if you collect VHS you should come to Delaware.... my goodwill has TONs of VHS, let me know if there is something in particular you are on the look out for and I'll keep an eye out the next time I go. I picked up a copy of Starwars Episode 1 widescreen Special Edition there a few weeks back. Its complete with the film and art book. Now its just collecting dust. I dont even have a VHS player lol.

For some reason I decided to go back to my Goodwill today and to my surprise I found a nice little Genesis lot. For $30 I picked up the following:

Wayne Gretzky and the NHLPA All-Starts
RBI Baseball 3
Combat Cars
F-15 Strike Eagle II
Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
NBA Jam
Jurassic Park
Jurassic Park Rampage Edition
The Adventures of Batman & Robin
Vectorman
The Revenge of Shinobi

Im not sure if my faith has been completely restored. But its a start.

I dont have many choices around here. I guess I'll have to start hitting Second and Charles, at least there I know the games are just a little bit below FMV.
