And suddenly, BAD PRESS FOR SCREEN 7 EVERYWHERE.

Yep!

Another new review of the event on Saturday written kindly by teh first ever visitor Will Ross of Cubed Gamers:

I will have a 2 min video online hopefully in a little while (will finish it now) - I know the full CJ and Ali speeches are very close (thanks James and Jack!) and I hope to get Mr Bateman and Mr Rennison's online in the near future, I'm just running low on the 60gb they need right now so it will take me a little while longer.

From Saturday! A short 3-min segment

A few more newsletters to write, and this will happen very soon - cos it's been a busy period. Hell yes Christmas! And then all my efforts getting the two videos I have online. But hopefully in-between the Infamous Adventure lads will bring you two fun talks from CJ and Ali

Very nice!

I must finally play those Magnetic Scrolls games, if Chris Bateman recommends them so strongly.

Ha ha nice. I knew that video interview would exist somewhere. Good vid, I'm looking forward to seeing the ones from Sunday as I missed that day

Nice one.

WHAM · Mon 09/01/2012 14:09:43

I wish I could have been at the expo... Maybe next year...

Igor Hardy · Mon 09/01/2012 14:57:46

Cool - looks like Yahtzee doesn't like the prevalent, oversimplified point & click interfaces very much.

I think the point was in the puzzle difficulty, since he mentioned a couple of times the guessing of the verb and such.

Igor Hardy · Mon 09/01/2012 16:46:24

He explained his point pretty clearly - it's about the fact that it leads to solving puzzles by brute force (rubbing ever item on everything).

Hey guys, just to let you know the CJ and Ali videos will be on their way shortly. Finally got some time to work on them. I also have Simon the piano guy which I'll upload as well. All in 3D! I meant HD!

Here's the Chris Jones talk! Ali video on it's way.

Igor Hardy · Tue 10/01/2012 19:38:26

Wee, with those AdventureX videos coming out it's like early Christmas!

Anyway, it's always awesome to listen to THE Man!

And here is Ali's talk. Featuring gameplay footage of Nelly Cootalot 2 and some interesting slides.

Noticed it's a bit dark at the beginning and the light levels go a bit funky a few minutes later. Looks fine in Adobe. Damn you Youtube.

m0ds · Wed 11/01/2012 20:55:12

Great - thanks Broomie!!

Ali · Wed 11/01/2012 21:39:13

Does anyone else think I look like Fagin in profile?

Ghost: The Sailor's uniform will make an appearance!

Ghost · Wed 11/01/2012 22:06:21

I loved both videos! But Ali's had the better slides. Great to see Nelly again, too, and what nice looks she has! (Shame about the sailor uniform. I really liked it!)

Dualnames · Wed 11/01/2012 22:48:25

Hey, Ali, really liked your 32 minute video, very impressing.
