Following up on my post from last week on attaining the Elgato Game Capture HD, this week I’m going to go more in-depth into the experience of actually using it. One caveat: I will be discussing its use relative to capturing from the PlayStation 2, GameCube (here in part 1), and PC (next week in…

The Choice: The Elgato Game Capture HD
If you didn’t know it already, United We Game has now fully entered the gates of video production! Well…mostly fully. I mean, we’re trying our best given that we all have lives outside of UWG. Not that those are of any interest to anyone, so I digress. A couple months back, The Duck of…
Destiny: Strike Exclusive Loot
Image captured by Hatm0nster It’s been two weeks since the Taken King was released, but the discoveries just keep on coming! In terms of loot alone the difference has been dramatic. Before, everything that wasn’t legendary or higher might as well have been worthless. Now every piece of equipment you receive has the chance to…
Games and that “in between” time
In what state of mind do you start a new game? Are you a blank slate, ready to receive whatever situations come your way? Or is your brain roiling with questions and concerns? Will you like the game? Will the characters be enjoyable to play? How long will the game take? What special stuff will…
Xenoblade Chronicles is over, and I’m…happy?
In early 2013, I made an attempt to play Xenoblade Chronicles. This was on the heels of finishing The Last Story, so I was in a JRPG mindset, and a pretty good one at that. But the timing just didn’t work out. After finding out that I’d need well over 60, 80, 100 hours just…
Recording PC Gameplay and Live Streaming with the LGP
You may remember a post I wrote a little while back that covered recording gameplay videos using the Live Gamer Portable. Today, I thought it would be a good time to go over some other skills you guys might like to know about. First off, recording PC games. You would think this would be pretty…
Dragon Age Inquisition: Should Your Adventure Continue?
Images captured by: Hatm0nster Dragon Age: Inquisition was a game that I felt really didn’t need any dlc add-ons. By itself, the game is absolutely bursting with things to do and locations to explore. The story is well-told, and I even felt like I got enough time to really get to know most of my inner-circle….
Happy 30th Birthday to Super Mario Bros.!
September 13, 1985, was a great day. Upon it a plumber appeared without delay. Perilous was his journey to save his one true love, Peach. Easily, though, he stomped goombas and koopas each. Rage quitting the game was common, it’s true. But Many a gamer still sought to come through. And Awaiting Mario at the…
Finding Destiny in the Borderlands
Image by Flickr user: JBLivin (cc) Destiny’s 2.0 update has arrived, and with its arrival the stage is set for the coming of The Taken King. Many changes have been made in preparation for the launch of Destiny’s first major expansion, and the sum of these changes is a game that feels both familiar and foreign….
Wasting Time with Purpose
When Angry Birds first appeared, I soared with the best of them. When Candy Crush Saga crushed the competition, I gladly got under the steamroller. When The Simpsons Tapped Out infiltrated my screens, I tapped, tapped, and tapped some more. I sliced things up in Fruit Ninja and Cut the Rope, ran for my life…
