Cruise Vacation

CONGRATULATIONS! You, lucky winner, are about to receive an ALL EXPENSES PAID, ROUND-TRIP FOR ONE, to OUR NEW VIDEO! (click here for details).

This video was shot about a week or so ago, and as it happened, on a weekend when both James and Kathleen were out of town. This left a skeleton crew of myself, Paul and Graham to take care of this video, and with one person being responsible for the camera, and another for the boom, we had to call in some friends! So this week you get a dose of Missie and Cam, who don’t show up in videos nearly often enough. The script this week was written by Paul, and the video was shot mostly on location at one of our many favourite haunts, Graham’s parents’ house. Amusingly, they were on vacation in England when this video was shot, and after we inadvertently set off the house alarm when we got there, we had to call them in order to figure out how to turn it off. We’re awesome at this.

Unskippable this week was Space Marine. You can view that here.

Checkpoint is online as well, with Episode 23: HD Remix.

Finally, please note that our new tee-shirt is up for pre-order, if you love Magic: the Gathering (and we hope you do!) you’re sure to love this shirt as well.

Cheers!

Every OS Sucks

Assuming your OS doesn’t bail on you en-route, head on over to the Escapist and check out this week’s video.

This video has been on our to do list for a while, and it’s good to see it finally produced. This video features the musical talents of one Wes Borg, (who you may have seen at Desert Bus performing this very song), our good friend Missie Peters stealing the show as Linux, and the crafting ability of Tally in the form of some awesome Windows earrings. Check this video out – it was a blast to shoot, and is even more fun to watch.

Then go checkout deadtroll.com for more of Wes’ (really funny) stuff.

Unskippable this week marks the series’ 100th episode! In celebration of this milestone, Graham and Paul have put together the Unskippable Guide to Cinematics. This guide is a treasure trove of advice for game developers, helping them to secure their games a place among the Unskippable halls of fame (and to ensure that Unskippable has enough games to let them run for hundreds more episodes).

Cheers all!
