I asked this question at the end of one of my written blogs but no one seemed to answer it but I am not angry about you guys not answering it.  It is just the thing that annoys me the most about these user videos is the player they are on and that it takes them a while to load up and sometimes not completely. 

Macromedia Flash Player is alright now and I suppose it is the only software they could use for this but I hate the way you start a video and have to wait for a certain period of time depending on how long the video is and seeing the little grey bar be moved and then will stop completely and go black meaning it did not do it all. 

Since I am yabbering on here, I want to know the answer to this questions: Is there any possible way and I don't care how it is done but is there a way of downloading these videos somehow onto your computer like on your desktop because there is some user videos I would like to watch on here (the Kingdom Hearts 2 Marathon especially but since they are over 30 mins long each, it will take a while just for them to load up and would prefer if I can download them).  I know you right cliick on the player and check settings and there is a storage capacity setting or whatever but was wondering if I can do anything about this.

Please let me know as soon as you can and will be very grateful.  I know I am not alone here because some other people have the same problem as me.

Well, here is the video blog I promised I would do following the news of E3's departure from this world and the E3 Media Festival entering in. 

Its just my thoughts on the news about E3 being reshaped, resized and reorganised so that developers and publishers can save money etc.  Let me know what you think of this news and also I have a question:

Is there any possible way to download user videos from here onto your desktop because it annoys me sometimes how long I have to wait for a video to load up and then it stops at a certain part then have to restart it again.  If there is, PLEASE let me know and I will be most thankful.

I know I haven't done the Ultimate Favourite Game contest even though I stated it was supposed to close last night but I will get onto that soon.

Anyway, enjoy and a Q & A blog will be done in a few days so please send me those questions!

Well, I am sure most of you now saw the news that the Electronic Entertainment Expo the way it is now is unfortunately no more and instead next July, it will be renamed the E3 Media Festival and that it is getting dramatically resized to a smaller location and thus there will be no more jam-packed action in the Los Angeles Convention Center.

I can see in some ways, why they did this and most of it is due to saving money for developers and publishers wasting millions of dollars each year making up booths and advertising games in the convention center and also it will give some of the lesser-known developers/publishers out there a chance to showcase their games better since some of the best games out there are not made by the big guns as it were (Sony, EA, Nintendo, Microsoft etc).

I read the editor's thoughts on this news and they do make some valid points about it being less about games and more about babes and crazy stuff etc.  Most people who had the opportunity to attend E3 will miss this way and hopefully the new way next year will be somewhat of a welcome change to people out there but we have to wait and see whether this new way will succeed or not and if not, then who knows?, they may bring back the old way but I doubt that.

I will probably be doing a video blog on this matter as I never got a chance to attend a E3 but would love to just so I can say I was at a E3 in my life but now I won't have that chance (unless I build a time machine and travel back through May of the last 12 years but that ain't going to happen ever).

Let me know out there if any of you have the lucky opportunity of attending a E3 of any year, I don't care which and tell what the experience was like since I will never be able to share it among some of you.

Well, I am back again with another video blog and it is just the same old thing except at the end of it where I don't go through questions but rant on about my thoughts on these people who slate other people's blogs and that while they do nothing at all on the site.  Credit goes to HighTimesBX for his rant about it and was great!

As you would see below this here, the Ultimate Favourite game contest is back and the two matches could be close but you may never know so if you want to vote for the game you prefer then do so before its too late. 

So, anyway enjoy this blog and post questions for my next video blog. 

Yes, the content is back after a bit of a hiatus now so I did not totally forget about it. In the last contest it was Ninja Gaiden Black vs The Warriors and the fastest hedgehog on the planet and his two tailed friend with Sonic 2 vs Sparkster and his Rocket Knight Adventures.

The results were as follows:

Ninja Gaiden Black - 7
The Warriors - 2

Sonic 2 - 6
Rocket Knight Adventures - 1

So, Ryu sliced through the Warriors gang and Sonic was just a little bit more quicker than Sparkster so those two games will face each other in the 2nd round of the UFGC (Ultimate Favourite Game Contest).

The 1st round matches will be ending soon anyway but now two more matches are coming up and they will feature 4 First Person shooters and they are both similar matches and you will know why shortly. The first match is between a Xbox favourite starring Master Chief and a Xbox favourite starring Master Chief. Confused? Well, it is because of this:

HALO


VS

HALO 2


The second match is between one of the games that brought first person shooting on the map and its dark and quite gory sequel.

DOOM


VS

DOOM 3


So there you have it, the next two matches will commence........NOW! Or when you read this and start to vote for your favourite. Voting closes tomorrow evening at 8pm GMT so get voting and who will win, the games that started the franchise or their sequels. You Decide!

Hey guys, haven't posted a blog in either format for a few days now but have been on the site looking at others so I wasn't completely gone.

First of all, thanks for the positive feedback (mostly) on my Online gaming video blog as I do enjoy playing games online from people on Gamespot with games like PGR3, Call of Duty 2 and Dead or Alive 4 even if it does have lag issues.

Nothing much to report on from the last few days other than me just playing a few of the same old games.  Played PGR 3 there several days ago online and it is a hell of a lot of fun online and once you get a lobby room full, then it is a great experience especially with people like Bullet for you and HightimesBX who I have enjoyed playing online with and have some funny experiences.  Since I have this game now, then I will be on this some more in the next week or so and looking forward to it.

I actually got back into Final Fantasy XI even though I kind of slated it several times but I was in a party last week for a while and enjoyed my experience in it so I gave the game a second chance and actually enjoy it now even though I would still rather go around different environments but better off doing in that in parties which I try to find on my level (Level 10 Warrior for anyone who would like to know).

I got Dead or Alive 4 last week and I like this beat-em-up, as it is the first in the series I have played and I ain't that great on it but enjoy it all the same.  Online modes are fun even though some tend to lag but don't totally ruin my experience of it.

I got King Kong in the post yesterday for rental and I have enjoyed what I have played of it thus far even though I haven't got to a Kong level yet but enjoy it nonetheless. I have the DVD of the film but haven't come around to watching it yet so probably will once I am done with this game.

Haven't played Oblivion in a week or so, which is strange and is basically the longest stint I haven't played of it since I was in university but should come back to it since I have not finished the Thieves Guild and Fighters Guild questlines.

Played Guitar Hero also and still cannot get the hang of that chorus in No One Knows on Hard (too bad the practice mode in the second one ain't in this as I desperately need it for this).  Looking forward to Guitar Hero 2 more after this week's On The Spot and Dead Rising also because that demo on OTS was funny and great at the same time.

Anyway, that is what I have been doing in the last week.  I will probably be doing a video blog later on today or if not tomorrow at the latest and the Ultimate Favourite Game will be coming back on Monday so the next two matches of it will commence sometime on Monday then.

So this is Darrogamer06 signing out and ROCK ON!

Hey guys, once again I present to you a blog about my thought on a certain topic and this time around it is online gaming.  What do I really think of it and what are the good and bad points of online experiences? All of this is revealed in this blog so I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think of online gaming.

This would have been up yesterday if it weren't for the uploading problem that occured in the last few days but it is up and running now.

Also, you can see that I got the Boss Murder Witness emblem even though I didn't watch the live broadcast of the show but watched it afterwards but a lot of people have been getting this so glad I ain't the only one.

Also, I have put the Ultimate Favourite game on hiatus for a bit as I don't come around to doing it now and would rather put it on hold for a while and bring it back to where it was before.  It will probably be back by the weekend or so and if not next week at the latest.

Anyway, watch the video and enjoy!

Well, here it is folks, the moment you all been waiting for (well at least for the 67 people that watched the first one), the second part of my favourite games blog.  This goes through quite a few consoles and I tried to be brief as possible so that I can get the blog shorter but alas, over the 20 minute mark again.

Anyway, I am using my laptop now for future blogs because my laptop is faster and downloads stuff faster than my home pc does (not as much stuff on it).  But unfortunately I am using an older version of Windows Movie Maker than on my home pc hence why there is no credits in this one because I looked in the version I have for video transitions and credits and that but didn't see any.

So, where can I find a download of the up-to-date version of Windows Movie Maker that will replace this one I have so I can get back to the standard blogs I done with the graphic credits etc.  Please let me know.  I will predict a torrent has to be use but could be wrong.

Well, another blog here! Seriously, the heat is getting on my nerves now and I know I ain't the only one out who is getting sick of it.

Here is my latest blog, where I just go through the motions of games played and questions answered.  So enjoy and post some questions please?

Well, another two matches have come and gone and no surprises that the victors of the matches are Zelda: Ocarina of time with 5 votes to 1 and A Link To The Past with 6 votes to 0 so Beyond Good & Evil didn't get a single vote.

Also, I did ask people to give me a game to contend with The Warriors and since no one came up with any suggestions by 6pm, I decided that I will choose a game to face it and that match will occur now: So the game is....(drum role please)

NINJA GAIDEN BLACK!

Ok, its not similar to The Warriors but it is a game I recently finished and really enjoyed playing thus had to put it on the list so the first match is between a stylish ninjas and a gang. Who will win?

NINJA GAIDEN BLACK


VS

THE WARRIORS


Ok, so now that the Warriors have a worthy opponent (in my view, the second match is between two fast characters in a way but one uses an assist of a rocket. They are old retro games for the Mega Drive/Genesis and they are:

SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2


VS

ROCKET KNIGHT ADVENTURES


Vote for your favourites as usual and voting closes 8pm tomorrow evening GMT so get cracking and good luck to the competitors!
