Zelda Marathon Weekend Live Broadcast
« on: July 17, 2009, 09:47:21 PM »

  Now that Chessa and I have finally settled into our new house we decided that a weekend of rest and relaxation was in order. To help us relax we've decided to kick back in our brand new game room and play non-stop Zelda all weekend long.    


We have just started The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. We plan to finish this game and hopefully one or both Oracle games since we haven't ever played either of them. Finally, if we have any time left over, we'll conclude with A Link to the Past.    


If you guys want to play along at home to share in the experience, grab a controller, your copy of the game and follow along. We'll be going until Sunday night!    


Both of us should be in the forums to chat in Talkback so post questions if you have them!    


Also, as you know, we aren't professional marathon gamers, we're just looking to have some fun. However, for the next seven days The Speed Gamers will be smashing through the entire mainline Final Fantasy series for ACT Today. Be sure to check out their live feed and, if you can, donate to the cause.

This is pretty badass. Sorry the sound and video kind of blow. I'll look into getting a better setup tomorrow, but for tonight this will do.

I love the third dungeon. For the longest time I would get stuck in there and not figure out how to go on back when it came out. One of my favorite bosses in the game.

I'm happy with thinking pokepal148 is just eating a stick of butter. It seems about right for him. I don't need no stinking facts.

i tried to play MASTER QUEST 00T at the start of the summer and the ugly textures just put me out of the game. It's hard for me to play that game now.  :-\

are you guys doing MASTER QUEST Version, off the n64, off the virtual console or off the GAMECUBE COLLECTORS DISK ?

Weiner to the face !  ;D LOL

The video is horrible, but I'm not certain what do to about that.  For the audio, you should get some simple Y splitter cables, split the jacks from the Wii into whatever sound system you have now and into an RCA-3.5mm mini-jack an feed that to your computer's line-in.

Also, although you're not "professional", one of the nice things is how the "pros" interact with the audience.  Give us something more than just you playing. :)

Lock on and use your Boomerrang. Run the other way.You aren't going to catch  it by going the same way. When it changes direction you have to as well.
