Skypecast Live @ 3PM!

2012-01-22T14:40:00.000-08:00

Well we did 2PM right? But that doesn't mean there won't be any unforeseen setbacks, and due to our unfortunate timing, there were. But that doesn't mean we won't have the show! Our live podcast will be at 3PM. Our long time Skypecast host, JJ will join me in a discussion about SOPA/PIPA and what would happen to our world if there was to be a government censoring everything we see.

You can listen in here

SOPA/PIPA Sunday Skypecast Live @ 2PM

2012-01-22T03:37:00.000-08:00

Well you guessed it, this week we witnessed one of the greatest turn of events in Internet history. SOPA/PIPA get shelved by their bill authors and the Internet lives once again, but where does it leave for the future of our Internet users? We discuss today our personal opinions on these two bills, as well as predict what will happen in the future, if bills of similar stature, were to make there way secretly through Congress, and not alert the general public.

Tune in @ 2PM to listen in!

Writing an Editorial

2011-12-14T09:36:00.000-08:00

As goes to show, there has not been much going on despite the influx of recent recordings from the club president Dan, but I will be embarking on my own quest to not only freshen up my penmanship and prose, but to put forth an example of what this club can do with all its potential.

I will be working on an editorial due out sometime in February highlighting the overall benefits of podcasting as well highlighting some aspects that may be concerning the future of Project Podcast altogether.

Alive/Dead Week Podcast! [Click Here!]

2011-12-06T21:48:00.000-08:00

Now that we are up to date with releases now. This week would be Dead Week, which means that teachers around the school would focus on teaching and preparing their students for final for next week, which will be the last week before Winter Break (WHOO!). But the nice folks on the ASB Cabinet have decided to turn this all around and make this something positive, which is known as Alive Week. Meaning that everyday for the entire week, there is a study hall type of thing, complete with snacks going on in the Cafeteria for the entire week. Not only is this Alive Week though, but it is also Spirit Week, so students from each class wears apparel that matches the theme for each day of the week to measure our school spirit. Click the title above to listen to the podcast (The [Click Here!] thing).

This Week's Podcast contains:
Alive Week Themes
Results of last week's Soccer game
Track&Field News
The tragic accident on Monterey Road

2011-10-12T05:27:00.000-07:00

A long awaited 12th episode of our infamous dead skypecast, yet it somehow makes its way through the seven levels of podcasting hell. Shan't this season finale of our Junior year skypecasting been released in 2010, I would reckon that the intellectual world would have been destroyed long since. Due note to our colloquial euphemistic listeners who know their way around the "streets", we recorded this on April 20th.

Suggested Talking Points, well not really talking points: Corrupted Osu! Commune again, Silent Guests, Where is New Zealand?, Minecraft-mon, early swearing conundrums, Super Meatcraft, J.J enters the fray, former student woes, [everything after 30min is exploitive].

Hosts: Bryan Nagar, Victor Nguyen

Guests: J.J. Wanda, Jordan Hughes (Silent)

Intro/Outro: None this ep. Its gonna be rough and raw, uncut, uncensored.

L.A. Noire Review

2011-05-19T18:02:00.000-07:00

It's Rockstar's new change in gameplay. Instead of being the bad guy as in past Rockstar Games, you play as a part on the law, with the new fancy facial- recognition system. The game's mechanics are extremely revolutionary with new gameplay innovations. You play as Cole Phelps, a decorated war hero who becomes a police officer in 1940's LA. Now L.A. Noire's Los Angeles is the Los Angeles and the closest of a 1940's setting you can go to. You go around LA solving cases and such. The individual cases themselves are particularly simple but gets challenging when you progress. There's nothing to do much in this game except investigate, and it does not get repetitive, just frustrating when you fail something. The game itself is about 40 hours long, and I have yet to gotten to the 2 hour mark. I'm not going to spoil much of the game's story, as it is a very good one, and possibly the year's most dynamic.

What's really about this game is the facial recognition system. You see every wrinkle, every crow's feet, and can see everyone's reaction face when you interrogate someone. It is truly one of the standing points of L.A. Noire.

left: see the guy's wrinkles?

Overall this game is truly an innovation and a different approach from Rockstar's usual games but, it is possibly the best game right now on the market. Also, the Xbox 360 version is 3 disc so you will be disc swapping. The PS3 version comes on a single Blu- Ray disc though.

Update on What's Happening

2011-02-27T02:58:00.000-08:00

There hasn't been much activity on the web page, but we've been doing recording the event at school for the past few week, expect a bulk upload of February's events soon.

CES Recap: What Was Notable, What Was Great, and What Was Wow

2011-01-09T18:51:00.000-08:00

Last week was the CES 2011 Show in Vegas. Here are things most notable, and just plain great. Maybe...

1. Tablets

This year many Tablets and surprisingly, you don't think of ipad when looking at them. Motorola came out with the Xoom, which will use Android 3, so it's good.

2. Smartphones

Smartphones unveiled this year were well, smart. Most notable being the Sony Ericsson Xperia which is a slider, but it's like a HD camera and screen too.

Another one is the HTC Thunderbolt, which is great for people who want to see videos on the road, but it's somewhat big because of it's 4.3' inch screen.

3. Lady Gaga

Yep, somehow, she was there. Advertising for Polaroid, she shows the GL30 instant digital camera.

Great Gadget Photos: CES 2011

That's all for this year at CES 2011. For even more info, check out NBC bay area's website here http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/tech/CES-2011.html

Making Project P Official

2010-12-29T05:37:00.000-08:00

So I had an experiment over the past week or so, and I found this to be quite fun, and entertaining. Playing games, and streaming online. So I'm announcing a Side Project dubbed "Project P". Not sure if I'm going to make this a regular thing, but it's pretty interactive and I find it entertaining, so I'll do it anyways. Now the quality isn't so great, but it's a start; I'm willing to improve the quality.

If I'm comfortable with it, might as well stream it, Welcome to Project P

L.A. or bust

Going insane, thinking of making a Project podcast webcomic

2010-12-28T20:00:00.000-08:00

anyone? what its a great idea just look at Tycho and Gabe and various others (vgcats, roosterteeth, virtual shackles, etc.) they have been living some pretty successful lives too, plus i got some great ideas for t-shirts now i know we are a non profit organization (we're just a school club technically) and our prez may not exactly be on par with me but hey lets add a little flair to it and be comically successful on the net, just a thought heheheh.....

yeah i can draw but drawing facial expression, animations aren't exactly my forte so feel free to pop out any ideas you might have and go for it, who knows we might just be the next best thing.

The Punishment may fit the crime....

2010-12-25T14:47:00.000-08:00

but what if the punishment fueled the criminal? yeah ponder that for a while but while on the subject of punishment does anyone know anything around the school or anything that i can do for my 40 hours of community service so i can get back to andrew hill next year, hopefully at the school or anything you guys do for community service would be helpful, thx

, Victor

Happy Merry Christmas Eve!

2010-12-24T16:19:00.000-08:00

WAR Review - Initial D: Extreme Stage

2010-12-19T05:47:00.000-08:00

Just passed the limit on Initial D: Extreme Stage, a game about a racing series popularized in Japan and here is my fatigued verdict, it's alright. Not only do things go well in the game, but everything handles pretty decent, and decent seems like an understatement, but that will have to do.

Initial D: Extreme Stage isn't a polished piece or work, nor does it have much to say about it's handling... because there almost no handling. It must be me, but there is even no need to have a break control in the game in the first place, neither is braking really a major factor in breaking through tight corners in the game, you can just steer and the car automatically drifts for you. Going at 50 km/h? Barely do a turn, you will skid. Do an unsharp 45 degree turn you'll still skid and drift. There isn't really much to the game unless you put on manual transmission and start counting the kilometers you're going.

The game is still challenging as shit, too. Turns are easy to do and hard to master, while that is a cliched term, it applies to the game immensely. Depth of the game goes as far as exploring different car brands and car models there are and experimenting with them by either tuning their parts up or modding the rims, body, muffler, paint, and spoilers. The tuning goes by levels, much like most standard racing games are, raise enough points? Go to level one in transmission upgrade and axle. But it isn't just limited to just saying level 1 and level 2 and so on, there are some things to learn in this game for those that aren't as enthusiastic on cars nor know the knowledge.

The car selection is limited but it's a start, there isn't really much to explore in terms of cars as there is only a maximum of 3 per profile and cars are available to put into your garage from the start of the game. No points are required to obtain new cars and start racing them, but there is not a huge difference in cars, they will do better given the car's transmission and drive placements, and that can vary from only about three to four selection.

This game is in no way a racing simulation and can do better in it's drifting category, but that's still far from beyond the point. This game is fun, and can make the most newbie of drivers become interested in it. There isn't a whole range of handling that will confuse any newcomers, and the game is still fun as it is challenging in some given points.

I didn't finish the game, nor did I reach the halfway point in it, mainly because I spent most of the time tuning up the car to try and beat the next challenging racer, because that in itself is fun. There isn't a whole range of depth nor is the game really fast pace. It isn't a polished and solid piece of work, but it's fun as hell as can deliver hours of gameplay. I'm not going to rate this game, but I'll say it's a fun game to play if your bored and have absolutely nothing else to do, and I mean ABSOLUTELY.

Damn this is late

2010-12-18T22:59:00.000-08:00

This is going to be very late of news but over the time of my incarceration i have gotten pretty damn rusty and forgot to check my email and have neglected my planner for quite some time now, dued to communication problems and lack of any idea what to do now at all but thanks to a tip off from our pres. Daniel my gears have started to move again but i have a better idea just call my home phone andi will have to try and actually check my email a bit more periodically now and i am sorry if my neglegence has put the club in a bad spot but blame that on me being furious at the boards choice and my mind being clouded by anger, other then that please call me at 264-4253 to tell me what to do and i'll check my email more often. p.s. Club disscusion on funds on the 17th

A victory with heavy losses is no victory at all

2010-12-18T14:12:00.000-08:00

Well good news i guess, i won my court case shortened my calender suspension by half and i also think i don't have to do community service or anger management but at what? they already kicked me out of Andrew hill and i gotta spend another 6 months at the rathole of a temp. school pathfinder with the scums of the schools in the district and i don't want that. i still can't believed that after all that trouble i went through these last month they still kick me out, they should've kicked out when i pulled out the knife on Benson instead of suspending me for 2 weeks making wait for another week then sending me to pathfinder for the next month and going to a hearing and a court date to decide whether they kick me out or not, they have their reasons now but for god sake this is like a kick to the nuts here. i'm still going to post here but i don't know what to do now and seriously does anyone ever even answer anyone anymore.
