Game Science

Welcome to the Gaming Institute for Higher Learning! In today's lesson we learn about the institute itself, along with the strange fungi discovered by a portly plumber with a doctorate.

Yeah, it was tough to find a good balance between introducing the premise and focusing on the topic of the day. After cutting a few things I ended up wishing I would have had the time to fill in part of that last minute. Overall, I'm happy with what I was able to put together, even if I would have liked to do more with it in the end.

I liked it, think the best way it could be improved is with better audio. Your voice was a bit hard to hear at times.

I agree completely! The boom mic I had to use turned out to be a piece of shit. Sadly, no money at the time for a better one. I ended up having to run the audio through a few filters in those parts to get em as good as they turned out. Better mics are an investment I plan to make. Along with a better camcorder

That was pretty damn good. Even if you don't make it on the escapist, i'd really like to see more (and longer) episodes.

You might want to try a clip-on mic to cut out the echo.

This was great. One thing I'd really like to see is games beyond the NES, if only because everyone's made jokes about them. Still, it looks like you've got a unique take on this, so I won't complain.

There are definitely plans to go beyond The NES. We just figured for the pilot we would stick to the basics. I have ideas for Bioshock, Dead Rising 1/2, Crackdown and many many more!

Thanks to everyone for the feedback thus far!

I viewed all the entries. yes even those that made me wish I hadn't and this is the one I hope will continue. Great job! I will agree when you win invest in a new mic other then that your on the right track.

That's cool, I'm just kind of throwing out thoughts.

This actually reminds me of an article in Nintendo Power from about ten years ago when they wrote a fake article about using warp pipes for travel.

I haven't seen every submission (nor do I plan on it...some are so awful I can't watch past 10 seconds). This is definitely the best, and has the most promise for the future. I'll be surprised and very disappointed if you guys don't get picked up.

I thought that was really funny! Great use of gaming memes love your inclusion of Dr. Mario (That picture was perfect)! I'm sure you wish you had more time, but I can't believe you got all that down in four minutes! That's an accomplishment. You just said, "Screw you time constraint! I'm not playing by your rules!" Great video and good luck!
