Majuular: FMV Horror | A Strange Moment in Gaming History

cross-posted from: !stauf_mansion@lemmy.mods4ever.com | https://lemmy.mods4ever.com/post/327 > The 1990s was a time of rapid change in the tech powering video game graphics. From pre-rendering, to ray casting, to texture-mapped polygons, it seemed that a major innovation was around every corner. > > However, the pathway towards graphical realism hasn't always been clear. Let's explore one such forking path: full-motion video. With CD-powered consoles and home PCs arriving in the 90's, FMV-powered games became viable at last, promising the world... but only delivering oddity after oddity. * 00:00 - Introduction * 7:19 - Night Trap * 23:50 - The 7th Guest * 31:07 - Frankenstein: Through the Eyes of the Monster * 36:12 - Corpse Killer * 41:12 - Phantasmagoria * 1:09:29 - Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within * 1:42:45 - Phantasmagoria 2: A Puzzle of Flesh * 2:11:36 - Bad Mojo * 2:28:14 - Harvester (Revisited) * 2:47:39 - Conclusion

Plug (Luke Vibert) - DBC (1997)

Another 90s song for Throwback Thursday! Beat Creator! The devastating beat creator!

> The world first sub 20 minute time in the Super Mario 64 - 16 Star category blindfolded speedrun has finally been achieved. After 10 Months of restless grinding, 118 days / streams of practice, runs, and more, the most ambitious goal in blindfolded SM64 has finally been broken. Bubzia has broken the previous world record by more than 40 seconds, with a final time of 19 minutes and 43 seconds. > > The sub 20 minute barrier is an achievement that many people strive for when they start out speedrunning visually. Bubzia has written speedrunning history by achieving this milestone while entirely blindfolded. More than 7.5 years after his first blindfolded 16 Star speedrun, this is what the speedrun has evolved into. > > I am so incredibly happy that I pushed through all the hardships that this challenge has thrown into my face. It has been a really fun blast, there have been so many new viewers to blindfolded speedruns in general, and many sticked to me grinding this challenge daily for the last year. > > I honestly don't have much to say about the run, it can still be improved and maybe I will return one day. But as cliché as it might sound, the much more important part than me breaking this milestone and the world record is the absolutely amazing and kind community that I have. Thank you all so incredibly much! > > There will be more blindfolded speedruns in the future, stay tuned! 70 Star will be broken next!
