Hey everyone, just figured I'd take a moment to plug my channel.. ;)

It's: http://www.youtube.com/austinmackert

I've been on YouTube for a little over a year (maybe a year and a half?) and started with basic talk-and-play videos (camera pointing at the TV with me talking). That is still the main focus (and has somewhat evolved to the now-current "version 2", haha) but it led into other things and I now do a wide variety of videos ranging from basic gameplay vids (Console, PC, MAME), system and console overviews, and some music related videos as well (I am a dj and occasionally upload live-recorded mini-mixes). I should be getting a capture card soon so I may even start pumping out some full-blown reviews.. we'll see.

Anyways, feel free to check it out if you have a moment! :)

All right, I'm going to jump on the bandwagon like others here and post some updates. :)

Since I originally started this thread my channel has gone through some changes for the better! I now use a capture card for all of my footage, I use appropriate sound recording hardware, and as of my last overview, I have gone completely scripted for more concise and to-the-point videos. No more pointing the camera at the TV, no more stuttering because my brain went dead on film, and I can say now that my videos have evolved to full-on reviews.

For those interested in checking it out, earlier this week I uploaded an OnLive System Overview. In the upcoming weeks I will also be uploading a Virtual Boy System Overview, a longplay with commentary for Guardian Heroes on the Saturn, a review of PaTaank on the 3DO and a review of RayStorm for the PC. Also, I hope to hit the 400 mark sometime soon and will be doing a giveaway contest when that happens. :)

Anyways, if anyone happens to stop in.. Feel free to leave some feedback here! Any and all is appreciated. :)

It's about time for another bump.. I've put up many videos recently, from standard talk 'n plays to pickups, but I would like to link to some of my full-on reviews. I'd like to think I'm improving in terms of video editing as well as my delivery:

Alright guys, time for another bump. Just the other day I uploaded a comparison video of the various versions of Viewpoint available. I also recently hit the 500 mark and will be giving away a CIB FC-16 GO handheld unit with some games to subscribers.. Should have that contest uploaded perhaps later this weekend!

Well, it's been about a month again, so why not another update?

Been doing mostly casual stuff this last month or so, with longplays/let's plays for Astyanax, Ninja Gaiden II and Twin Cobra for the NES, as well as some casual talk 'n plays for Double Dragon and Dr. Chaos on the NES, and the Smash Pack for the Dreamcast.

Also did a fairly hefty pickups video too! Nearly 45 minutes long, I think..

Now I'm working on some more serious reviews, coming soon, starting with Tetris on the CD-i.

I suppose it's time for another bump!

Long overdue, I just uploaded my Tetris (CD-i) Review: http://youtu.be/_xPIIaDloqI

The month prior, I also uploaded a review for Candy Catcher, a 2011 Halloween homebrew for the Atari 2600: http://youtu.be/uPfwoOlj8dM

I have also recently uploaded let's plays/longplays of MUSHA (Genesis), Mega Man IV (NES), and I will be uploading a two-run longplay for Castlevania Bloodlines on the Genesis, Christmas Day.

It's been almost two months since the last bump, so here we go!

Last week I uploaded a review of the new Jakks Pacific Space Invaders plug 'n play TV game. It's the main featured video on my channel page, so check it out!

Things of a more casual affair, I have uploaded longplays of Gremlins 2 (NES), Contra (NES), Raiden (Atari Jaguar) and Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (NES). I have also uploaded some more laid-back casual talk 'n play reviews, including games like Wolfenstein 3D (3DO), Zombies Ate My Neighbors (SNES), Bomberman: Act Zero (360), Trip'D (3DO), Killer Instinct (SNES), Halo: Anniversary Edition (360), Ghouls 'n Ghosts (Sega Genesis), and more.

I will also be uploading the entire back catalogue of the IMPLANTgames Retro Gaming Podcast. The next previous episode should go up later tonight. :)
