Game Quickie: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

Another great title card made by Vee

Oooops I forgot to make a post for this when it came out four days ago! In any event here it is! Tony Hawk games were constantly in my Gamecube and while the first game is probably my least played it certainly has had an influence on my gaming and gaming in general. Plus, you HAVE to love that soundtrack! I mean it has Suicide Machines AND Goldfinger. You guys know I love me some ska right? Well now you do if you didn't!  Also before you ask; no I hate Reel Big Fish and to a lesser extent Less then Jake. What were we talking about again?

RetroActive: The Dreamcast Theory

Watch it on RetrowareTV
This super sweet title card made by Vee

Once I stopped being lazy this video wasn't actually all that difficult to make, though I had some issues balancing pictures and game footage. But in the end I am really happy with it, I think I'd put it in my top 5 videos so far. The issues came with that fact that with it being 11 mins long and with so much going on the file was huge. So knowing blip I decided to upload my own FLV as there would be no way they would convert it without timing out.

RetroActive: Classic 80's Price Guide



Man I just keep having tough videos to do lately! So my retro store (Game X-Change) closed it's doors a little while back. Heartbroken I had to look for a new one and stumbled on Trade-N-Game about the same distance away in the opposite direction. Upon going in I found a store dedicated to guys like me, very small but very cool. I bought some Atari games and a NES game and talked to the owner who was there about his shop and retro games in general. Of course I had to bring up my videos and we talked about RetrowareTV (which he had heard of) and how Racketboy had just been there last month to do an interview with him for the website.
