Defending on Nelson Bay
Another gameplay video, this time Bad Company 2 and on Nelson Bay again. Duck had just signed off but I stayed around for a few more games. In a previous game the team we were playing won a lengthy 30 minute game of rush by C4ing the one remaining MCOM station when they were down to 7 tickets. An act of desperation, and really pissed me off after such a long battle! That’s probably one reason we stuck to Alpha in this base. We had to.
Commentary volume is slightly higher but I had to talk quietly because the rest of my family were in bed and I didn’t want to wake them up!
Two UAVs on Nelson Bay
You can have two UAVs on Nelson Bay in Bad Company 2. First time I saw it happen was last night. One UAV fired rockets and the other had smoke equipped.
After I died I mentioned it to my squad and I was asked, “what are you smoking?” so I had to check this again!

Colin and Nick discussed video formats this morning on Twitter. Colin said that “iMovie lags like crazy on H.264 video” which might explain why the transitions in my first commentary didn’t render correctly when I did the voiceover in iMovie, and resulted in the video lagging behind the audio later in the video.
Anyway, I went searching, and found MPEG STREAMCLIP which will convert MP4 files to Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC). A 596MB file became a gigantic 11GB file! I haven’t tried editing a video with transitions yet but hopefully iMovie will perform better.
Dissecting xSocrates
WoodysGamertag dissected a game of Modern Warfare played by xSocrates on the ship level. I don’t know what it’s called but we played this level the other night and I think Mike mentioned this. Pretty amazing gameplay.

“This lvl has been moderated!!i dont know why,i needed to change the logo and name.”
Little Big Planet allows you free rein with your imagination but sometimes creators take inspiration from existing games. Such was the case with this Mario influenced racer. It’s a fun little level, looks beautiful and it’s simple. Just keep R1 down to drive. I’m the sackboy with the cape, my son Adam was the brown fella.
Ironically, I received an email from Youtube stating the following,
“Dear donncha2001,
Your video, I wonder why it was moderated …., may have content that is owned or licensed by Sony Music Entertainment.
No action is required on your part; however, if you are interested in learning how this affects your video, please visit the Content ID Matches section of your account for more information.
Sincerely,

I wonder if everyone who uploads Little Big Planet gameplay videos receives such an email? Duck said he got 4 of them!
Oh! Hi there Tye!
So we had some great games of Bad Company 2 last night. I was playing for quite a bit with Mike and Duck and sent numerous invites to Tye. When I eventually bumped into him it wasn’t quite in the fashion I expected…
Got some great clips, but it also recorded our voice chat (well, except mine) so I need to configure the PS3 correctly to avoid that in the future. On the other hand, I’m glad I did get Mike’s frantic “Get him! Get him! Get him!” as I danced with an enemy in a small room with knifes out! I was laughing so much it’s probably a good thing I wasn’t recorded!
Edit: Here’s that knife dance. Warning, some of the game chat is NSFW. And a bonus clip too, a sniper montage by Mike!
Armor Lock Fail
One of the new features of Halo Reach are armor (or “armour” if you live in the old world) abilities. I’m not so gone on them, except for the drop shield in a game of Firefight.
- The jet pack makes you a sitting duck for other players.
- Sprint gets you around quickly but it takes an age to fire afterwards.
- Holographic Decoy was fun the first time I tried it but now everyone know what they are.
- Active Camo scrambles radars telling everyone you’re around.
- Drop shield is great except other players will of course target it.
And then there’s armor lock. This ability is really useful if you’re playing with a team that’s cooperating and communicating but if you’re playing the lone wolf “Call of Duty” style you’ll probably be out of luck. Even against a noob player like me.
Awesome Loop Kill
What to do when you’re being chased by an enemy aircraft in Battlefield 1942. Wow. (via)

NSFW chat but it’s hilarious. Thanks Mark!
