My Future Plans

How's everyone doing? Two years ago I started this blog and was very much into it. From the blog I discovered my real passion was for YouTube, created a channel and started making videos. Now, that's mostly all I do and I don't write very often for Matropolis. 

However, I'm not going to stop blogging. There will still be the odd post on occasion but YouTube will be my primary focus. I'm loving it and met a great bunch of people.

The Decline Of The Tuber

Since creating Matropolis I've met a great number of people from YouTube whom I now call friends. The gaming community on the video site are absolutely fantastic and it's been great interacting with everyone.

I've been active for nearly a year now and love filming videos to upload, even though it's given me less time to blog but in a way this blog was a starting point to for me.

It was YouTube where I discovered Rick Idak and have become involved in his Marine Boy fan film. All thanks to a comment left on a video. Amazing how it started all from that. 

Marine Boy: Splasher Sings!

Here's a clip of Splasher singing after being able to talk due to an invention created by Professor Fumble in the episode 'The Genius Dolphin'. He's manipulated into performing for an audience. Be warned, the voice can be a bit irritating. This video is taken direct off my channel

The Tubers High Score Challenge!

Earlier this year myself and a friend, Steve, decided to challenge each other on YouTube at an arcade game. The premise was simple:

One credit, 3 lives, 3 practice runs and then go for it!

The game in question was Thunder Dragon 2 and Steve kicked my butt. He had played it a lot more mind...

It was quite fun so we decided to do another and another. By now or if not straight away another Tuber wanted to join in so we said yeah why not? The more the merrier! Several weeks down the line the High Score Challenge began to become more popular and we all kept in touch via Twitter. Each week it would be someone else's turn to pick the game of choice. As long as you could earn a score the game would qualify.

R Is For...Racing Hero!

I don't think I've covered a racing game on this blog yet so thought this game would be apt after playing it in the Tubers High Score Challenge a few weeks ago.

For those of you who don't know, THSC, is a group of YouTubers who participate in weekly high score challenges on arcade and retro classics. Myself and my good friend Steve started it and now have our own Facebook group for it too. I'll explain more in a future post.

La Bibbida Bibba Dum!

How many of you have heard of the YouTube channel 'Bad Lip Reading'? Because I hadn't until my best friend showed me last night and I have to say the videos are hilarious! 

If you haven't guessed yet the videos are of popular shows, films and music videos where someone has recorded voice overs to match what you're seeing on screen.

Paranoia Agent's Creepy Opening

I really have no desire to see this intro again but thought I'd share it with you all. It is very odd indeed...

I Would Love To Connect With You All...

Ok so it's great writing these posts and publishing them and seeing how many readers each one attracts but I'd like to get in touch with fellow fans of any of the topics I've written about. Whether that being video games, anime, cartoons etc.

So if you'd like to contact me here are a few ways:
