Hey Guys,

I'm recording myself (badly) playing prior SpeedGames and I just wrapped up the video of our very first SpeedGame way back in 2006. This is all part of the new SpeedGame site, let me know your feedback:



Update: I just finished doing 2007! We had nearly double the entries from last year so I tried to keep the video down while showing a bunch of gameplay.



Update: Here's 2008!

Nice video, I liked the music and I liked the footage you showed for each game ( I am pleased that too many glaring glitches didn't show in the Archibald clip, haha ).

Though, I don't remember there being any 3D games being in the 2006 speedgame...I thought they only started popping up in 2007.

Thanks Lava, I was a bit surprised at some of the entries as well. :)

I finished extracting the 2007 files last night, I'm going to be fairly busy this week but I'm hoping to have it done by the end of the weekend.

Man, those 2007 games were so fantastic.

I did a bunch of individual feedback / writeups for each of the entries in the 2007 speedgame -- for anyone who is curious / nostalgic, you can find them here:
CCN Archive search: Speedgame:

Thanks for putting that together, Mack!

Man - I forgot how good some of these games were.
The intro to Sam's Finding Adina sends chills down my spine - magic.

I finished recording myself playing the 2008 entries. I'm going to try to keep it a bit shorter this time around with more variating clips of gameplay. Hopefully I'll have it edited and uploaded tonight. If anyone has suggestions based off the last two videos on what you'd like to see post it here. :mrgreen:

That does bring back a lot of memories. I forgot I even made some of those games :P.

The times when you made relatively rapid cuts (< 5 seconds of gameplay) work pretty well. Some games are interesting to watch for longer cuts, but other games with a slower progression benefit from when you've done a larger number of smaller cuts.

Great work so far, Mack!!! I'm seriously impressed.

Great job Mac! If you want a hand with the next one give me a shout. I've done a little video editing myself.

Nice work on the 2008 video, Mack -- that's fantastic!

I was surprised to see some that I didn't remember -- I think that was the first year that I didn't play all of the entries. It was great to see all of them!

Great work! I posted a comment pointing out where each game starts in the video.

Thanks! When I get the downloads up I'm going to tag them on the videos as well so people can download them while watching.

Thank you all for the comments!

That was amazing, Mack. Totally got me pumped up. Can't wait to see 2009's!
