Absolutely hilarious, especially when you're listening to it with friends at the same time. :D

A good laugh indeed. Especially when Craig dies and gets really angry. :D

Nice job.

Craig, you really need to do some commentaries on godawful games for supreme hilarity. I mean think of the comic potential of Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing, 50 Cent: Bulletproof, or Unlimited Saga.

Craig. Listening to that makes me want to have a British accent five times more than before. :p

Just wanted to clear things up. As crags immodest nature has a tendency to cause him to be a bit untruthful when it comes to his own brilliance.

Craig first came up with the video game commentary idea. He did it on sonic 1. He was unable to get past the marble zone though and became frustrated. I thought it was a brilliant idea, funny, inventive, innovative! And so i did my own, about mega man, this wasn't until after he'd done several more though. Each of them by far leaps and bounds beyond mine.

I mean he's British, he has great timing, he yells angrily. I don't even swear. So i stole his idea. Butchered it. And that's that. The idea is his, and if any one out there duplicates it, make sure to give him credit, it's only fair, and i can attest it is an idea that begs to be duplicated.

A while back ina Y!M voice conference I had my mic on always on while palying the later parts of RE4, which kind of created a commantary thing.

Even though I think people could only make out strings of profanity and movie one-liners.

Aaand i'm sorry i don't have an hour to listen to your commantaries right now, but i'll prolly get around to it later.

I am sneaking into Craigs house, and stealing his vocal chords to replace my own. Those dulcet tones send shivers down my spine... *Purr*

I listened to the Sonic 2 one and it was amazing. The amoun of death involoved in Sonic 2 was unbelievable.

It was so moving I want to make a video game commentary thing. Shadow the Hedgehog Expert Mode. That or Sonic 3 and Knuckles. I will ramble, swear and let my dog out.

So yeah what voice recording software did you use? Or how did you make Sound Recorder go over 60 secs?

YAY! Finally someone else steps up to bat. Well done John! :D

I started recording S3&K, beat Sonic 3, gave up on Knuckles when Lava Reef got too REAL. Or I died stupidly.

I'd love to make one of these, Vortex's one shall be saved forever!

If I did one, S3&K (obvious one) or Metal Slug 3 would be my chioces. ^^

After an hour and 23 minutes, I have produced a commentary for Sonic the Hedgehog one, proving that I am bad at that game and my shame is greater than Craig's. I had to go and waltz through Sonic and Knuckles to reaffirm my manhood.

Unfortunatly though it's about 75 Meg and Putfile only goes up to 25Mb =(

Edit: Cutting up the file, cutting up the file, how do we fit it on the interwebs? We cut up the file.

01 Green Hill Zone (5 mins)

02 Marble Zone (12 mins)

03 Spring Yard Zone (12mins)

04 Labryinth Zone (30 mins XD)

05 >.>

06 Starlight Zone (8mins)

07 Scapbrain Zone (15mins)

Revel in my poor gaming ability!

**giggles** Wow, I'm hosting these, yet this is the first time I've actually sat down and listened to some of them.

Sonic 2 ~ ROFL. I don't know if there's much more I can say to that. XD Just....wow. I'll admit I fell asleep near the end, but that's 'cause I was tired and lying down while listening. >> But it was awesome. :3 Hill Top and Mystic Cave Zone especially.

Daahkvulfie's Green Hill Zone ~ ^^ I think it's a great start, and I'll listen to the rest later, I promise.

I plan to listen to the rest of Daahkvulfie's Sonic 1, then listen to Vortex's, then hit Sonic CD and Phoenix Wright (it says fanboys only. What about us fangirls, hmm? I find that sexist!)

XD Overall though, you guys are awesome and I can't wait to hear the rest. ^^

All you guys from the U.K. and the rest of Europe have to do commentary on any game created by Phoenix Games.:lol

Think of the potential here!:lol

Those games have to be super cheap to obtain and I want to hear how awful these games are.

Hamster Ball? I suppose it's a Super Monkey Ball rip-off?

I've never seen or heard of any of those games before. Looks like grade A crap alright.

I'd go for Street Warrior for the coverart alone, alas it's not out until November.

Remind me then, and I shall make it so!

That because SCEE isn't really interested in Quality Control.=D

EDIT: Oh this game is available now:

www.phoenixgamesgroup.com/uk/games/extremesprint.html

And this is supposed to be a PS2 game? Looks like PS1 quality to me!

CRIMSON!!!! You stole my gags!

But I'm very happy to see another one. Listening now, going to post after I finish, but for the time being, I'm at Marble Zone, you say you cannot do comedy, but the Kryptonite blocks made me giggle. Very nice reasoning! 😀

SO TRUE! @ "All Sonic fans know to avoid the bottom of the level" I never conciously registered that before.

Sonic had ONE weakness.... SENTIENT WATER!

I wish I had done Sonic 1, I have lyrics for that song too. I always hear "I got the hots for you, don't think I don't cos I do!" 😀

A girl called Bob? Calling me out?! HELL NO! Can she do it while maintaining a superb witty commentary? I DON'T THINK SO!

*Giggles* I may have died TWICE against the Tidal Tempest Boss, but you screwed up the level select TWICE, and also couldn't beat Labyrinth.

I have a name for the Scrap Brain enemies: MAN-BEAR PIG!

Anywhos, great listen. Thanks for making and posting, dude! You rock 😀

Hehehehe, I completly forgot to mention it but the boss music in 1 always gave me the lyrics "Why don't you stay for tea? da-da-da- Teaa da-da-da etc"

And yeah, Labrynth beat me so hard I had to go beat Sonic and Knuckles without losing a life to compensate ;P Of course theres a big difference between that and Sonic 1.

And what the heck@ Pheonix Games. They look so shoddy it's amazing! I may do another one of these things, it was fun...

...cept for the whole labrynth boss kicking my butt repeatedly thing. >.>
Hmmmm.... Streets of Rage perhaps. Shame theres no microphone downstairs, I could rope Bob in and demonstrate her inneffectuality at games =D

EDIT:UGH! Forget THAT tried to do SoR and made some entertaining comments about the intro, Adam's pants, and Dr Wiley (!?!) Then died. Played through to where I was a Blaze, started up the mic again, having lost NO lives. And then lost them ALL on the freaking last level. Continues and everything! AAARRRGH. HOW?! How did I fail at a game I've beaten so thoughroughly so much D:

I'm going to go play Micromachines. I know I can play that, but you won't get any of it, you hear me!?

Street Warrior. Look at the box. Look at what's happening in the art.

Now look at the rating. Um?

Craig's Sonic 3 Commentary - One hour long, played as S3&K but ends after Launch Base Zone (no arm boss), will continue on next available opportunity.

Enjoy :D

Lolz. That rocked, Craig.

You even made reference to Tidal Tempest, and dieing! =D

I listened to about half of that, due to time reasons. But man, it was so freakin' hilarous. XD You remind me of my mate, Bubbles.

But anyway, because I didn't here all of it, what was the final death count and collateral count?

And to answer your question about the blue spinny discs, that's because of the same inhabitants who made the molesting screw! o_o

You should also write songs. X3

Hehehehe, that was great fun Craig! Very entertaining =3

Though mentioning the city in the bg of Carni Isle as the SoR city, then combining it with my ideas from my scrapped SoR one, makes for some intriguing thoughts.

I somehow got onto the idea that everybody in SoR (except maybe Axel and Blaze, Adam included though, but he was too stylish to be evil) was robots built by Dr Wiley (In his Mr X guise, natch) And the game made more sense that way o.O

So maybe Robotnik is holding an evil scientist's convention? How would knuckles let him get away with this?

Go check on the Master Emerald :D

*CLAP^^* @ Sonic 2 Commentary

I just listened to it. Funny stuff. =D I tried to play along with you on Gens but you couldn't keep up with me so I just waited for you before progressing. I never knew you could hit the final boss other than when h leans over! I always fought him Knuckles's way. Thanks for that. =D

That's right, I love these things so much, heres another one. Less funny though =S

The game du-jour this time however, is Quackshot Starring Donald Duck. :3 Hands/Paws/Hooks up if your remember that little jem!

Duckburg to Mexico
Duckberg to Transylvainia
Marahaja to Egypt
South Pole to Viking Ship....to the South Pole
Pete's Hideout
Last Crusa-...uh... Great Duck Treasure Island

I completed both Alladin and Earthworm Jim earlier today. And most of Anamaniacs, and got some practice in on Castle of Illusion. So I have a wide choice if I wish to continue :D

Having listened to a few of these, I think it's only fair that I do one at some point myself. Not sure what I'll do one on yet though... Empire of Steel maybe? Yeah, that'd be good. =D I'll do that. ) (For those that don't know, Empire of Steel was an awesome shoot-em-up on the Genesis/Mega Drive. It kicks ass. Also, I am awesome at it.)

I'll get an emulator up and running later. ^^

~SilverShadow.

EDIT: And here we are! First up, commentary on Skies of Arcadia's final boss section. WARNING SPOILERS ETC. Have a listen here, you can click it and wait or right-click and save. About 40mins long. Also, I recorded this with my headset so it's a bit breathy. The second one's clearer.

Next up, commentary on the classic shooter Empire of Steel on the Genesis/Mega Drive. A lot of fun to play and probably to listen to as well, it even includes a completely unintentional joke! =D Just under an hour long this one at about 55mins.

Have fun.

Currently uploading my 50 minute Gunstar Heroes run as we speak. It's rocking in at about 45MB, so we should see shortly.

I'll also note, that it was no where near the quality of any of the others posted, but I hope you enjoy anyway. ^_^

EDIT:

There we go. Enjoy.

The question now is whether Street Warrior is a Street Fighter knock-off or Streets of Rage.

I dunno about you guys, but I'm having an overwhelming sense of fascination with "White Van Racer."

About the commentaries, I haven't really gotten around to listening to them. I tried listening to Vortex's, but I've had the same problem Ultra was having. I've listened to a bit of Crim's. Good stuff. Haven't gotten around to Craig's yet, but I will! Pinky swear!

But I'm likin' the idea. Been thinking of maybe doing my own, perhaps. Maybe yes, maybe no?

My firewall privates me from downloading things from Rapidshare.

I'd very very much enjoy listening to Gunstar.

Listened to Bryan's Empire of Steel one, good stuff. Always superb to hear Bryan's joysome voice. I'll get around to SoA ASAP. If not this weekend, then certainly when I'm at work and I have nothing else to do :p

Or if all else fails you could send it to me and I can host it on my site. I've only got 99GB left, but I'll bet I can squeeze you on there. ^^ Feel free to AIM at "Sunny and Wailsy" if you want.

EDIT: Vortex's link should now work for everyone.

And the above offer goes to anyone who needs the space ^^ Just drop me an AIM if you want.
