Update 07/10/12

First of all, I would like to say a big thanks to all those who have subscribed to us, and been reading the blog.

I know we've not released a video for a while, I've been busy trying to start a business.

The sega classics collection is officially scrapped as a review, this decision was made actually today, around half an hour ago, as I was far from happy with what I had.


I'll be quite honest, I've not been happy with what I've been putting out lately. Especially the last review, that driver SF review, while informative was immensely boring, more like the kind of thing you'd find on IGN, or some of the more boring nerdy channels. The main purpose of this channel, when I first set it up was to be entertaining, and informative, and more importantly good. I dislike my reviews my self for the most part, so how can anyone else possibly like them?

So I've been talking to the "new reviewer" who is yet unnamed or made any videos, but he does exist PROMISE! The format of the show is completely changing. To a monthly, perhaps 2 a month half hour(ish) magazine (Top Gear) style show... but with a much tinier budget.. of course. We'll be detailing different games, and have different sections of the show, including news, or more appropriately giving our opinion of recent gaming news, and of course mocking things, that's been going on int he gaming world. New releases of the month that we've played, Talking about random games we've been playing, this can be anything to the later ps3 games to NES games. and giving quick opinons of those, There will also be 1 review of a modern, hopefully newly released game, a retro game review, some other retro gaming related guff, and from time to time a special feature. Things like "gaming legends" and "grandtheftathon" will likely appear here. "Onion plays" will still be there own videos, although a lot more effort will be put in to them from now on.

But I feel the game reviews are too long and boring, and feel I have a lot more to talk about around the whole gaming industry, and community than simple game reviews that everyone else is doing, and in a lot of cases better than me. Of course we'll still be reviewing them, just not going in to as much boring detail as we have been. They'll likely be restricted to around 5 - 6 minutes. Most games will get a quick mention, a few jokes made out of it and then We'll move on to the next section. I'm hoping this will mean the videos will flow better, and be far more entertaining to watch. I'll also be giving my self much longer to work on them.

As for the details of the first episode, I've been hard at work today thinking of things, and doing much typing. I can confirm a few things, that will appear in the first episode. Firstly the classic game review will be Wonder Boy 3: The dragons Trap For the master system, and the sega classics collection review, that I've been working on for the last few weeks will also be consolidated in to the random games I want to talk about section, only much shorter, and much more to the point of course.

I'm also hoping I can get hold of a copy of F1 2012 (budget allowing) This will be the subject of the modern review, if not I'll have to find something else. We'll also be talking about the Wii u, and the Super Slim PS3 in the news section. I'll give much more information when everything is finalised, and filming and capturing of game footage starts. I'm not sure yet if we'll appear on camera, since we don't have a camcorder, but It's likely the only way we're going to pull it all together. Thanks for reading
