Homebrew Reviews

It's a show I'm making. Every month, I'll delve into the world of Atari 2600 homebrew gaming and review it. Each show will be about 10 minutes, and for the first one, I attempted to play Strat-O-Gems Deluxe with one hand while videotaping me playing it with the other one. The view is somewhat good, although sometimes, I take the camcorder down off the screen to tape the VCR (It's hard camcordering with one hand!) Well, if you want episode 1, PM me and I'll burn you a copy for free. Why would you want this? Why, to finally hear my voice, of course! I've been here for almost two years, wouldn't you be wondering what my voice sounds like? My face *is* a yellow smiley face like in the picture I have in my profile. That's right, I never frown. Sometimes, I like to take my face off and lie down on it. It's soft. Well, anyway, to hear my thoughts about Strat-O-Gems Deluxe, gimme a ring and I'll mail you a copy. On DVD. DVDs are cool. I don't know what I'll do for episode two next month. Maybe Medieval Mayhem. I *so* need a cameraholder person. Maybe I'll force my mom to do it next month. Here's a still shot of episode 1 (the best still shot out of the whole episode.)

Sounds like a good idea, but you might want to invest in a tripod!

I reshot the episode earlier this morning. This one is only 6 minutes long. I put the camcorder on a stack of boxes. It was slanted, but it was better than the old one. I'd get a tripod, but they're kinda big and my room is a mess.

Have you considered putting them up on YouTube like Sayton does?

I might. I have dial-up at home, but once in a while I go over to my sister's house. She has high-speed internet access. I use it to update This site, one about local Salem commercials. Since I just went over there yesterday, and every time I go over there I somehow mess up the computer (but we keep fixing it. I swear it doesn't like me.). Since I was just over there yesterday, it'll be a while until I can go over there again. :roll:

Get a mini-tripod. Some of them are quite small, but they'll still hold a camera steady and allow you to aim it where you want. I have a one by Bogen and it works great.
