Magnetro – Marvel Vs Capcom 2 - Ataraxia Combo Video

sh/f Super Fireball Battle

Now that I’ve got all my WordPress posts on Tumblr, what should I do with it? How about I introduce a tool-assisted video Sonic Hurricane debuted at Evo2k10? Evenly matched projectiles and beams clash like it’s Dragon Ball Z. This video got me into Shinichi Osawa’s album The One and the soundtrack to DoDonPachi Resurrection Black Label.

I’m trying new methods for embedding videos and Facebook cross-posting. Try not to laugh.

Botchamania

Pro wrestling is good dumb fun, but it's hard work. It's easy for someone to do a move wrong, receive a move wrong, say something wrong, or have a table fail to cooperate. Those mistakes are called botches, and Botchamania is a highlight reel of botches. It's about the only wrestling I watch anymore.

Botchamania has to bounce around to different hosts due to copyright claims. Maffew's feed is the best way to get new Botchamanias as they're uploaded. If this video breaks, let me know and I'll find it again.

I like to keep this blog work safe, but Botchamania contains some NSFW language.

30-Day Video Game Music Challenge (Super Hard Mode) Day 20: Music from a racing game From OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast (Xbox, 2006)

OutRun 2 with Turbo OutRun music is a lot more fun than actually playing Turbo OutRun.

Desk – Street Fighter 5 Zangief Combo and Parry Video

I’ve been having a lot of fun playing Zangief in Street Fighter V. His Iron Muscle can shrug off most attacks, and the big guy can combo into throws from a dozen different moves. Have I really never posted a Desk video?

Automatic

Well, this is neat. For years, we’ve seen OBD-II scanners that can read Check Engine light codes from your car at home, but Automatic goes much further by working this into a smartphone app. Automatic constantly monitors your fuel consumption, speed, and trip data while you drive and offers up tips to improve your driving style and use less fuel. If it detects an accident, it can even call the authorities for you.

Did You Know Gaming? — A Link Between Worlds

UPDATE: Did you know? I actually appear in Did You Know Gaming’s Mario Glitches video at 2:17 with footage from Fun with the Orb Glitch. I’m glad they cite their sources too, but I liked them more when they posted images like this.

Every fandom needs its useless trivia. For video games, you can find tons of useless trivia at DidYouKnowGaming? Their RSS feed is perfect for this sort of thing, and it all shows up on their Facebook page too. You too can find out how in the new Zelda game on 3DS, every character and object is doing a constant Michael Jackson lean because it looks better than looking at the tops of their heads all the time. Smart stuff!

You know, I put too much effort into these posts and I'm not posting often enough. I ought to start posting images and videos without any titles or context. It works for Tumblr! (If only I knew I’d remake this WordPress post on Tumblr 4½ years later...)

Minigolf Exam

Finally, I get to post a game I made! Minigolf Exam is an 8-hole miniature golf game where you only get one round to prove your skills! If you do badly on your first run, you are a minigolf failure forever. I made this game in 48 hours as my Ludum Dare #28 compo submission, and I wrote a few status updates about it here.

Play Minigolf Exam now!

Street Fighter IV Ultras Without Cinematics

In Street Fighter IV, Ultra Combo animations actually move characters awkwardly around the arena, but those transitions are covered up with camera angle changes. This video removes all of that camera work and reveals what happens just outside the frame and between cuts. Gen, Guy, Yun, and Rolento all have Ultras that teleport all over the stage. The wallslams you see aren’t anywhere near near the actual walls of the stage so that the victim isn’t in stuck a bad corner situation after the combo is over.
