I've got some Battalion Wars media on
the horizon. I know, I'm late. But hey, the game is
AWESOME, and it's gonna keep me busy for a long time,
maybe as long as Tales. I dig it.
Probably becuz I have so little time.

Beat killer7 and Geist a
while ago; love them both. The only game I'm playing
with any focus at the moment would be Tales of
Phantasia, cuz I deleted my earlier quest that
I hadn't touched in over a year, and I still wanted
to explore the series' roots.
Progress Report: I'm past the "halfway point"
in terms of editing for my Resident Evil
music video. I've finished capturing thru both RE
and RE Zero adventures, which has been
absolutely the most time-consuming part of the project
considering the countless hours "wasted" on
reloading and replaying the same sequence over and over
again just to get a *random occurrence* captured properly
-- or at all. Many already know how long it takes these
stupid games to load up from the point of resetting
till the time you're allowed to walk around. I'm sick
of seeing "You must survive in order to expose
this ---" BS. There's very few reasons for me to
revisit the games in any extended capacity, mainly to
capture anything interesting from Leech Hunter or see
the rewards of Real Survival mode or anything else I
randomly happen to think of. I have 3 memory cards full
of save files for both games. From this point on, my
main responsibility is to sit down with pencil, paper,
and Premiere -- to continue brainstorming and editing
till this thing's complete. Personally, I'm very pleased
with the current results, and I hope it'll continue
to maintain its energy thru the 2nd half of the song.
But my fall semester, which started this week, presents
the usual time-consumption problems.

Added the TGS 2004 trailer and the "Smiths"
trailer for killer7,
also replaced the TGS 2004 trailer and the "spoiler
trailer" for Resident
Evil 4 with new encodes thanks to
better source material. Finally, added the 5min video
of the "cancelled" version of Resident
Evil 4, the one with the "Hook"
dude. All of the above were from the Biohazard
4 "Making of" promo DVD released in
Japan.
I've been busy with my Residen Evil music
video. I'll have more to say about it this month.
Thanks to the August 2005 issue of Nintendo Power,
there's another bunch of trailers to be added. For now
there's One
Piece: Grand Battle, Zatch
Bell!, and Viewitful
Joe: VFX Battle (Battle Carnival?).
A selection of DS trailers is in the next batch. Additionally,
I've updated the Zelda:
Twilight Princess E3 trailer using
the DVD version as the source, so it's no longer the
pixelated garbage that was on the E3 press kit.
Most of Nintendo's DS/E3 trailers are available on the
download
page. I'll add the previews when
I have time. Nintendogs and Another
Code/Trace Memory will be the last two of the
bunch. After that, we can expect some trailers off of
the bonus DVD that comes with the latest Nintendo
Power issue.
In other news, DivX Networks recently released DivX
6, making the move to only support Windows XP/2000
from now on, leaving my underpowered, outdated, but
trusty Win98SE system to be devoured by the merciless
jaws of time. Or something like that. Don't worry, I
won't give in to their silly newfangled system requirements.
I can't afford those sorts of upgrades anyway.
I've added a handful of E3 2005 trailers including Zelda:
Twilight Princess, Fire Emblem,
Kirby, Chibi-Robo, Battalion
Wars, and Geist. The preview pages
aren't updated yet, but the videos are available on
the download
page.
BTW, you'll notice that every E3 2k5 Twilight
Princess trailer on the internet is somewhat
grainy, including mine. That's becuz the source file
that Nintendo gave out to everyone was grainy. GRRRRR,
Nintendo BAKA.. I'd like to express my thanks to _______
for hooking me up with the source files of these E3
trailers. Thanks!

"I'm not quite dead! I think I can pull through,
Sir!"
Final exams finished up some time ago and I was on vacation
in Las Vegas with some friends last week. Good stuff.
Got a few updates planned for this month. I noticed
I managed to skip the month of May entirely. Now back
to work!
Currently playing: Mario Kart: Double-Dash!!
(GCN), Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles (GCN), Resident
Evil 4 (GCN)
Progress Report: With the time off I had from spring
break, which ended about a week ago, I was able to edit/complete
roughly the first 2min out of 5min (based on the 5min
song I chose) of my Resident Evil music
video ("THE VIDEO"). 2min is a great amount,
which also gives me a feel for what the finished product
will be like, but there's still lots to do with so little
dedicated time becuz of school. It also seems THE VIDEO
will have my longest run length to date. I'm not done
capturing from Resident Evil Zero yet,
but I have plenty of footage to work with in the meantime.
Becca & Billy are on Disc 2, and they're ready to
rock-n-roll with the Giant Bat at the chapel.
A bunch of Pikmin 2 trailers will be added
in the near future. And maybe some other nice things.

Update your links with the new permanent address http://ssv.jaccinc.com,
where you and I will not be bothered by the oppression
of conspicuous page-tracking-killing site-design-vandalism.
I'll shutdown the Yahoo/Geocities/jackasses mirror within
a week.

Also added the Viewtiful
Joe 2 36 Chambers of Viewtiful clip
a couple days ago. I've hardly worked on the RE
vid since school started a couple weeks ago. It'll be
done when it's done. Enjoy the screenshots in the meantime.

Progress Report: I'm practically done with all RE1
capturing. I'll revisit it later to investigate some
Hunter oddities and to do Invisible Enemy and Real Survivor
modes (in under 5 hours, each). In RE0,
I'm past the Scorpion boss. I have 13gigs of video at
this point.
Some screen caps next time.
