Dave wins a Hauppauge? PVR

Well, it’s official! Dave has won the Hauppauge? PVR on Geoff’s channel!

We had a few games with Geoff and Sokeil (I think is his name?) tonight and rocked most of the time, right until Geoff left and the defenders on Laguna Presa were just too strong, even with us laying down covering smoke on the base. Not sure where the rest of our team were but I think we were probably the strongest squad on our side. All the games were very close, both defending and attacking.

I got a chance to really evaluate the iMP cable too and to be honest I’m not happy with it. That score of 3/5 is getting changed to a 1/5. The picture quality is just too bad. I’ll update that post with more details shortly.

I unlocked a pile of things this evening. Can’t remember what but I there was at least one gun, and smoke for tanks. I’ll check tomorrow.

Oh yeah, I took advantage of the Isla MCOM building bug mentioned in my last post. Nice 100 points for taking it out! 🙂

Making healthy babies with WoodysGamertag

WoodysGamertag has organised a charity drive to help March for Babies a charity that helps potential mothers give birth to healthy babies. In 4 days he’s collected US$8,000. If you donate $50 you can even play against WoodysGamertag.

Here’s his followup video giving with his reaction to the donations raised so far.

Barret ricochet

This is one very, very lucky guy.

See here for MadOgre’s description. Scroll down to “BOOM HEADSHOT”:

Willie, the father of Tina, who made the sandbag rests fires a .50BMG, an Armalite AR-50 and it ricochets off of a steel plate that it should have easily penetrated. The bullet comes straight back and hits him in the head. You can see it hit the dirt about 15 feet in front on him before it clobbers him. Luckily he was uninjured. He’s a bit sore today, but otherwise fine. Lucky lucky bastard. He has been advised to buy lottery tickets while he still has so much luck. I don’t know about the timing, but you can hear the hit on the steel plate. Time that till the impact on Willie’s head… how fast is that 750 grain slug traveling? The range is 100 yards. Amazing.

Extreme Cannon Fodder

David produced a montage of great clips from Geoff’s Youtube channel and played the old Cannon Fodder theme tune in the background. I can’t believe this hasn’t been done before but maybe the average Youtuber is too young to remember this classic Amiga game!

Geoff himself used the same tune in this Squad Rush video as he and his team annihilated the opposition. Cannon fodder indeed!

Montage clips are from Modern Warfare 2 and Bad Company 2 of course. If you’re curious, here’s the Cannon Fodder intro and here’s some gameplay from the game. Great game, but I always preferred Syndicate.

Modern Warfare 2 nuke in 8 seconds

How does Geoff do it? A nuke in 8 seconds? Good thing all those soldiers were busying shooting at air support or something. They never even saw him coming!

That totally trounces the previous record of 30 seconds by Gunit123:

*Sigh* In Geoff’s next video he talks about the hate mail he received after posting the video above. Some people just don’t have a sense of humour. Those people should probably get out into the sun a bit more.

Destroy first Alpha crate in Port Valdez Quickly

It’s really easy to kill the first Alpha crate on Port Valdez with a tank from afar. When an M-COM station is in a solid building there’s always a danger of the building falling down around it. I don’t think it’s a bug, it’s a design feature. Bravo on that map is much more exposed and harder to take. (via)

On Isla all it takes is a knife! Watch and enjoy!

BFBC2 – Taking out choppers montage

Geoff received quite a rude message from someone so he compiled the following montage of helicopter kills. I just love the soundtrack! More Amiga music please!

David was playing during the first montage, nice to see his gamertag on Geoff’s squad!

Let’s hope Geoff never thinks like these guys! 😉
