Let's Play PCSX2... Again!

Tue, 07 Apr 2009 07:49:01 GMT

A little over a year and a half ago I reviewed PCSX2, a Playstation 2 emulator, and it was of a middling quality. During the initial review it even crashed on me a couple of times. While it was playable, it was very painful to play. Well, development on the project has picked up quite a bit, and speeds and compatibility are very noticably improved. Still using the same machine, I decided to record my latest results. Version featured is 0.9.6. (I have finished both Shadow of the Colossus - speed hack settings a must for that game - and We Love Katamari using this emulator.) Also featured: my strategy for using emulator save states for hunting metal slimes. Now if I could just figure out a way to make that alchemy pot work faster... Specs: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+, 4GB of DDR2 RAM, Nvidia Geforce 8800 GTS 320MB (a bit old now, I know)

Thoughts Ep. 3 - Disaffect the Vote

Wed, 02 Jul 2008 03:29:00 GMT

After a bit of consideration, I decided to document some of my thoughts on the pending election. Personally not quite as consistent as I would've liked, but it captures the key points that concerned me.

Thoughts Ep. 2.5 - Tired Testing

Fri, 20 Jun 2008 06:44:01 GMT

Testing my new Nokia phone's video feature, seeing if it's worth uploading video blogs with. Nevermind my tired babbling, I was just on my last break and was a bit tired at the time, didn't have anything to actually say, just wanted to test this new recording method.

Thoughts Ep. 2 - GTA IV

Fri, 23 May 2008 07:13:00 GMT

My thoughts on GTA IV, although after recording I was shocked that I didn't comment on the cabaret shows (the Cowboy is the most badass dude in town) and TV episodes. GTA IV is a game to just soak in, like a sea cucumber.

PA's Video Blog #10: 'Rats & Spiders' Pt. 2

Thu, 08 Nov 2007 05:09:19 GMT

Part 2 continues the video blog with some personal comments about some of the games I've played recently (Metroid Prime: Corruption, Half Life 2 Episode 2 & Portal, and Halo 3), and then I get into my opinion on medical marijuana. I wrap up with an Icons segment briefly discussing the life of Socrates, although not quite doing it as much justice as I'd hoped. Be sure to check out Part 1, where I go in-depth on my opinions of race and show a video vault segment of a little-liked group called the Psychopathic Rydas.

PA's Video Blog #10: 'Rats & Spiders' Pt. 1

Wed, 07 Nov 2007 08:06:24 GMT

The first part of my latest video blog covers the topic of social segregation and gives my opinion on the impact race culture has in our society. I also put it into the context of the recent Jena Six incident. Then I go into my Video Vault segment on Psychopathic Records/ICP, but I imagine most of you will want to skip that part and continue to Part 2. Keep watching to hear my thoughts on medical marijuana, see a few game reviews, and see my personal icons segment on Socrates.
