Heya ;)
This is a video that was made in a successful attempt to win a new Ati Readeon video card.
Just watch it, it's really cool. T00lbox says it sucks and he hates it, but that's maybe because it was made with Enemy Territory. Just concentrate on the content and the music...be blown away ;)

Superb video editing, excellent production effects, great soundtrack, top-notch AV synchro...
Only thing that gets me, that's a lot of work to win a video card. You'd think they could have saved on the software and studio recording and just bought one.
Anyway, highly enjoyable! :luxhello I wonder if that song is available MP3/WMA anywhere...?

Do you think it will work???

No.
Wives just dont understand how important a new video card could be for your love life , but you must convince her !

I've got unrestricted synchronous cable, 8Mbit up/down. Usually hit upwards of 1000k/ps on good sites, but lately it's rare I break 350. ISP claims there's been no changes. :What the

The editing/production is top notch definitely. But the content does seem kinda dry.

Per everyone's request:
DivX has a bad habit of embedding the audio in such a way that you can't reliably rip it without errors (pops and hisses), so I had to break out some old software.
But, here it is. I have tried to preserve the fidelity of the audio as much as possible while maximizing the compression. The original artists have been given as much credit as I could fit in the ID3 tags.

Please, if you share this file, give full credit to the original artists!

But I'm stuck in glue.
Very good song for the occasion. Got it on my MP3 player already. :Wink
That video was just awesome. Perfect. No wonder it won the prize.
Reminds me of playing games on dial-up. Ooooo.....the pain and suffering. :Mad

I thought it was "Stick in Loop" because lag can be refered as loop, replaying stuff over and over. Maybe maybe not, glue sounds funny.
Eh?

When I was gonna reply I was gonna say "33k/sec and dropping"
But now I'll say 22k/sec and dropping.
Now I'll just wait for the dl to stop falling before I click the post button.
20.7k/sec steady.
man, this is hella slow.

MP3 is removed from my HTTP server due to the fact that there is/was too much crap on it. Email me if you still want the song.

Ask and ye shall receive!! I ripped it and gave credit to the authors, so here is "I am a Lagger" by Foneboot and Gahn!:D Unfortunately, I could only rip it to .wav, since there was some odd kinda encoding used for the audio, but it sounds equivalent to a 192 kpbs mp3. For some odd reason, the WAV didn't wanna encode to MP3 no matter what I did :Nope :Nope :Sigh

LordVagabond...
if you read along the thread, you'll see that I ended up doing a high-bitrate mastered MP3 myself. I've since removed it from my HTTP link previously posted, but you could probably get it from any number of forum members here over IM, myself included.

Thanks, dude...
In the future, when I finally get my server 100% operational, I can stop using the blasted 10Mg space I get with Cox. NOT ENOUGH ROOM.
I think this vid is totaly kickass!!!
Those dudes that made it sure can produce a fine flick !
oh man..Found this now... Gahn here, made the tunes with my brother. Thanks for all the great feedback!! Woaw :)
Here is the lyrics to "im a lagger" :
=======================================
i played for hours
know im good
i tried to shoot you
nothing i could
im a lagger, i like control i know i own you but i miss my goal
i cannot aim but know what to blame
im a lagger, i know its true, i like to own you but im stuck in glue
i cannot aim but know what to blame
sometimes im dreaming,
i play for real
and be the hero,
the ace in deos deal
its all a nightmare
im lost withing
without radeon, i will never win
im a lagger, i cannot lie i could have own you but im used to die
i cannot aim but know what to blame
im a lagger of taht im sure, hart to own you but im too poor
i cannot aim but know what to blame
i cannot aim, but know what to blame
i cannot aim, have to live in shame
i cannot aim, but know what to blame
i cannot aim, have to live in shame
im a lagger, i like control i know i own you but i miss my goal
i cannot aim but know what to blame
im a lagger,i know its true, i like to own you but im stuck in glue
i cannot aim but know what to blame
========================================
The song was made at my place, my brother singing in the bathroom (was the quiest place...:-) and edited in the computer. No real studio. Give me a mail or join #[deo] channel in mirc (quakenet) and ill send the tunes. (You can have the instrumental versions as well if u wanna ;)
I am still working with music, its my passion. But no pro, just at nights with a beer (or two).
and... WE DIDNT WON the ATI comp.. ;( But the feedback around the globe is so nice so we kinda won a even better price.... and again... thanks!!!!
Keep on fraggin
//Gahn
