Awesome. I can do the first 3 relatively soon. The last 2 aren't out yet, but will cover them when they are.

Also what are you interested in. Like a "first 10 minutes" kind of a thing, or just a slice of gameplay from somewhere in the game? Talking about BS2 and DXHR. Kung Fu Killforce is only so much to show.

I'm interested in the game play.  Something that shows me what kind of game is being played.  Don't spend much time in menus and RPG selection trees etc.  I want to see what person the game is played in, what kind of weapons are utilized, what the enemy looks like and acts like.    I don't have these games and I want to see if they are worth getting.  Show me the fun, the cool, the gruesome.  A series of different footages spliced together would do that better than one long run through I would think.  Also give us some narration to set up what you are going to display or while it is being displayed.  I'm into information overload, pack it all in there.  Sell me on the game like you are getting a cut.

That sounds super fun, I can't wait till I get home so I can work on it. That's definitely the best idea, and I'll be glad to show off a series of different areas and types of gameplay. I'm big on details so info overload is right up my alley. I may even do a series of videos, at least with DXHR as it has a lot of variety and different play styles. Bioshock 2 has some good variety as well, but overall is far less complex as a game. I'll see how it goes.

Sounds like a good affiliate program that I should start with Feral

Wow, this sounds really cool

If I could suggest something, maybe a regular segment, once a week called "A few Minutes of..."

This regular series could show off the latest indie and AAA titles on the Mac. With the regularity it helps gain a regular audience, But I'm sure you know this from your MGC work.

What do you think?

I think that's a great idea, and something I'll see if I can incorporate into my schedule. Ideally I'd like to talk about a game along with the video, but I don't always have ideal recording situations, so maybe just video and voice when I can. I'd rather do "indie to AAA" that is, a wide range of games.

I have been working on DXHR, taking lots of clips, just need to edit them together in some cohesive and sensible form.

Lastly, I think I'm going to make a new video channel. Same idea...its just not the IMG video channel, its my video channel and there's a difference. I made it over a year ago, and much like I renamed the podcast, for much the same reason I want to make a specific video channel and logo/name. Not sure what it is yet though

Found this on youtube

That's good Blake always did know how to make a silly video.

Gives me a few ideas...maybe I can promote the MGC in some fun and silly ways.

Well, I could spray my hair silver, get the old M1 helmet, and help offer game reviews as General Patton.

Actually, I'd pay to see that.
