Great news for GMO2 fans: It’s official, people like the show! The original episode of the series, “The Greatest FPS Ever”, has pulled in several hundred views on YouTube in a short period of time making GMO2 one of the more successful series ventures by Twilight Foundry Films! GMO2 will now have a new episode every Saturday!
In this week’s episode GatorAIDS writer Shoe of All Cosmos makes a special guest appearance to play the infamous Xbox Live Indie Games title Try Not To Fart, a fast-paced “button masher” where the object is to simply avoid farting. Every time you make a mistake your character lets one rip right in the middle of a date or an outing, or even worse, a wedding. We don’t claim to be above toilet humor, but honestly it’s good to get in touch with your inner child once in a while, and if the kid in you is still alive you will laugh at this game. Try Not To Fart is only 80 Microsoft Points ($1 USD) so if you pass it up you’re crazy, it’s loads of fun — so much fun, in fact, that this is the longest episode of GMO2 to date at 18:00.
Join us next week when the cast plays Sailor Moon R for the Super Famicom!
For those of you who only stick to Facebook, Twitter, and eBay for your Internet needs (aww aren’t you so cute in your little safety bubble?) you may only be familiar with Craigslist in passing. Craigslist can best be described as a rough “meet up” connections website whose display format never made it past 1997; either the creators of the website are creative geniuses or they simply cannot be assed to pick a font other than Times New Roman for their creation. On Craigslist you can do a variety of local things in your community — assuming you live in one of a handful of densely populated places in the United States — ranging from selling an old dresser, finding a DJ for a party, or finding work in the adult porn business. Craigslist truly has it all, and if it dispensed food stamps then I’m fairly certain every impoverished family in every metropolis in the country would be all over it.
GMO2 (The Godmode: On II Project) is just a test idea we had for a commentary show that retains all the energy and humor of its predecessor, except without the display similarities that make it look like other shows currently popular online. With Broken Pixels taking the fullscreen “reflection” view and Video Games AWESOME playing with the angled view and cast greenscreened in the corner, we decided to take it half way and do the game footage fullscreen with the cast hanging out in the bottom corner as to not obscure the footage.
In this test video we sit down and play Cabela’s Alaskan Adventures for the Xbox 360, and rather than playing it like the hunting sim it was meant to be we treat it like a FPS ala Halo or Modern Warfare.
