Syko Killers - Upside Down (Guild Wars)
I threw this together really quick just to use up the Gigs of GvG footage on my harddrive. Of course, I've cut out several hours as well to fit the length of the song. As always I try to take a different approach in my game videos, this is probably the most mellow of all the Guild Wars videos I've made for Syko Killers. I dedicated it to Syko Killers, who all for the last 4 years have made the Guild Wars division one to remember for a lifetime. The game is getting old so this will most likely be my last take on it. Enjoy!
Music: Jack Johnson - Upside Down

Designing fulfilling classes in MMOs is difficult -- creating compelling hybrid classes, particularly so.

The Music Of Ultima X Odyssey
Here's a bunch of folks talking about the music featured in the (then) upcoming Ultima X: Odyssey MMORPG project, along with some gameplay footage and performances by the musicians who worked on the game.
This video features interviews with Rick Hall (Senior Producer for the UXO project), Jeff Marsh (Orchestrator and Music Conductor), Steve Smith (Sound Engineer), Simon James (Concert Master), Andy Dombrowski (UXO Lead World Builder), and Chris Field (Music Composer).
The video was included in the April 2004 Issue (#237) of Computer Gaming World... and that's a bit ironic, because the game was cancelled two months later. Thanks a lot, EA.

Traveling Gamer (Sword of the New World)
This game is an MMORPG where you create a family and fight as a pair of 3 instead of just 1 character alone like in most other MMORPGs. The controls though are basically the same when it comes to talking to NPCs, moving around, and attacking. In this game, though, you can actually leave the computer while your team of 3 continues to fight using an auto attack mode (defense mode) for easy leveling up. Even though you can leave the game and level up tons, it's also a bad thing because you can't loot while away. The casting buttons are split up into each character. I believe it's Q-R, A-F, and Z-V. You also have different styles to choose from as you go up in levels. It's a little addicting, but at the same time very repetitive. Some downsides may lie in the control, but you'd have to play for yourself to get a feel for it. I give this game a 6.5/10. Almost a 7, but not quite.
All videos I upload will be updated depending on play time and mood. For example if I get from lvl 10-20 I will upload an updated version of the game and delete the previous one. Again the purpose of these videos is to show gameplay NOT to show off my level or skills.
