Is this the same narrator for "All Your History" game videos?

Oh and nice typo.

>> ^raverman:

Thanks! Awesome back story vid. I always wondered about the UFO / X-Com naming weirdness.


Part 2 should be up tomorrow.

Follow the DOTA 2 tag then watch the All Your History DOTA videos (there are 3)... then perhaps the Comical View (which is funnier if you got the basic understanding). DOTA 2 is free to play, but in closed beta at the moment. Getting a key though is mostly a matter of applying and waiting, and/or visiting Twitch streams of the game or Steam trade forums. At the point in this video iG wassort of winning, but Na'Vi turned it around with what SWBStX talked about...

>> ^doogle:

I'm curious to know more, but have immense difficulty with the limited info here.
What's "DOTA"?
Who the fuck is winning?
bla bla bla


That was a great analogy there... the interception and running for a touchdown in American football (I don't know football/soccer well enough to know on the other ).

>> ^SWBStX:

It would be kinda like intercepting a touchdown pass from your opponent to then run it back for your own score in American football. Perhaps something like one or two goals in stoppage time to comeback and win a football(soccer) game.


I've yet to actually play a game against real people... even Easy bots beat me. I think I am nearly at the stage I could have some coaching, but not sure yet... then again I worry I may be learning bad techniques and will have to unlearn what I have learned. Right now I am focusing on last hits and denies (for those that don't know DOTA/MOBA style games, each lane generates minions called creeps, and by getting the last hit on the enemy creeps you gain more experience and gold than you would otherwise, your creeps or towers are often getting last hits, since it is worth xp/gold to last hit a creep, you want to deny the enemy team that ability and so you last hit your own creep, they still get some XP/gold, but not as much, and XP/gold becomes more important as the game goes on). Then perhaps items/abilities and all the heroes... it really starts to get intimidating with the depth.

>> ^Phreezdryd:

What's with the narrators pronunciation of "Karateka"?


Typical yankee.

>> ^Asmo:

I don't get this fascination with 'beating' WoW, if a game makes money and returns on investment, and it's players enjoy it, isn't that the definition of success? I personally hate EVE gameplay but people enjoy it and the company makes money. So it doesn't kill wow, it's an entirely diff game and appeals to diff people...


Also I don't agree that you "kill" a game that has reached the amazing success WoW has. There's no such thing as a WoW Killer...there's just the next logical step in gaming. Which I believe now is SW:TOR with it's fully voiced quests and all that jazz, it makes me feel like I'm playing a single player game. That's all I've ever wanted when soloing in a MMO.

>> ^Morganth:

Awesome! Back in college I actually wrote my graduation paper on the 'History of the Video Game Console Industry.'


Do you still have it? If so, then please kindly post it for us to read.

Why so damn quiet?


I noticed that too.

It's a guy giving significant video review/coverage of every single famicom released, in chronological order. After 39 episodes averaging an hour in length he's just gotten through December 1988.
It's on Youtube now but the first couple dozen episodes are only on archive.org.

Great series, this. Ant, you seem pretty into this shit. You watch Chrontendo?

Nope, where is that? I just like watching video and computer game documentaries even if I am not into those game series.



Cool! http://chrontendo.blogspot.com ... Hey, you should submit the videos to VS. I didn't have Nintendo when I was young so I wasn't into their games.
