Let’s Play!
Good evening, citizens of the internet.
After some messing around with fraps and my sound card program, I finally managed to make the headset I got for christmas to function properly. When I run fraps while playing games, I can record sound as well as video. Before, fraps wouldn’t record the sound so that kinda sucked. Soooo…
I was thinking of starting a Let’s Play of sorts that would be uploaded to the Mudcrabs Den Youtube channel. That’s right, the Mudcrabs Den now has a Youtube channel! And a mail address (mudcrabsden@gmail.com)!
But continuing on the topic of a Let’s Play, what games would my dear readers be interested in? I went through my pile of unplayed games (a shameful lot…) and found a few titles that would be suitable for the LP.
Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
First off we have Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones. This game is down the same alley as Assassin’s Creed. The Prince, that you control (or I, if this is the LP-game), is posessed by a Xivilai as you see on the cover here on the left. He must kill bad guys, climb some stuff and stab some monsters while trying to control his Xivilai-self. He also has to get his ass to the hospital to have someone look at that metal spine he is growing out of his arm, becase that is freaky!
MYST V - END of AGES
The next game up is MYST V – END of AGES. If you want me to make a complete fool of myself, you pick this game. And I will hate you for it. The reason why, you ask? I have tried to play MYST V before. You see, at the beginning there is this bald dude dressed in robes. And those robes have the most epic physics. When he starts strutting around while telling me vital information, I cannot focus on anything else than his robes that flow so perfeclty lifelike around his ankles, missing said vital information. The box says seven years and up, I say attention span 7 and up.
MIRROR'S EDGE
And last but not least, MIRROR’S EDGE. I totally use CAPS LOCK whenever I have to write MIRROR’S EDGE. In this game, the protagonist Faith is a human carrier pigeon. To make up for her lack of feathery wings that would bring her straight to her destination, she uses her sweet parkour-moves to manouver across a bluuuuuuue scyscraper landscape. She also beats up some evil men that want to take her out of business. Probably Fed-Ex employees. Follow Faith on her exciting journey down the yellow bri-… the red metal walkway and solve the great mystery! Or something! Or something completely different! Or nothing at all! Yay!
Vote in the comments about which game you would be interested in! I dare ya!
Update: Time to cheat!
Initially I didn’t set a deadline for the votes, but I kinda want to get this thing going so here is the deadline. One hour and 15 minutes from now! If there is a game you really want me to play but the votes aren’t in your favor, send your friends a link to this site and tell them to vote for the game you want to win! It doen’t matter if they are even remotely interested in this, they are just here to help you cheat! Isn’t it marvelous?
Update: voting is closed!
We got one new vote! That’s one vore more than I expected!
And the winner iiiis…
Prince of Xivilai-posessedness: The Two Dining Chairs! Congratulations!
Update: Problem!
My mirophone will not record the sound properly, and the sound system in the game is too unbalanced. Sometimes it is low, and sometimes it is loud. Darn it.
I say Myst! :p The two others are good choices as well though, but I really want to see myst! ;-)
The poll is off to a bad start :P
But it wouldn’t be too hard to turn the cards in my favor…
Prince of persia :D
If you does one for PoP, please also add the extraclips found at the main menu on to yours, Let’s Play. Would be epic :D
Your vote has been noted :)
I’m leaning more towards MIRROR’S EDGE because I don’t think it would take too long (MYST could take 80 hours considering my skills with puzzles) and it would be kinda laid back and easy in a way.
Mirror’s Edge can be truly frustrating at some points, trust me! xD
I too vote for Prince of Persia!
Yay :D
When can we expect it? :D
I am installing the game now. After a gaming session I will have to edit the video to split it into parts that will be uploaded to Youtube. I’m thinking 8-10 minutes of gameplay per episode.
What game did you go for? I really enjoyed Mirror’s Edge! The gameplay is truly unique and fun! And yeah, it’s pretty short, didn’t take me a long time to finish it at all! :)
I haven’t played the earlier PoP-games, so if you go for that, it could be interesting! Maybe I’ll even buy the restored and hi-res versions that came out on the ps3 as a trilogy recently! :)
Btw, did you enjoy the movie today? :)
