Six Flags Great Adventure Rollercoaster Introduction: Part 1

Me and my MatoApina friends are planning a tourist trip to New York this summer, and my travel fever is getting pretty high although it’s still at least six months away. Therefore I decided to start a series introducing every rollercoaster in Six Flags Great Adventure, where we are planning to spend at least one day of our trip. What better way to spread the fever :D, than to tell some facts of each of the awesome rollercoaster there and embed a point-of-view video from YouTube? I’m going to start from the tallest, fastest and probably most intense one of them all, the world record holding rollercoaster called Kingda Ka (picture below).

It holds the current world record for the world’s fastest and tallest rollercoaster! It accelerates from 0 to 128 miles per hour using hydraulic motors in a mere 3.5 seconds and rises vertically to a whopping 456 feet. In other words: HOLY FUCKING SHIT what a ride it’s gonna be!!! You don’t experience someting like that every day, so I can hardly wait for it =)!

GAME OVER!

I have four new awesome favorite videos and a new subscription! It all started a while ago when I watched this featured Human Tetris video and loved it. Well yesterday I noticed that they (notsonoisy) had made three other truly awesome human pixel animation game videos: Human Pong, Human Space Invaders and Human Pole Position. The sound effects are so hilarious, just like in the Human Tetris video. Especially the Human Pong vid cracks me up since the only sound effect is “mep” :D! The Space invaders is also very true to it’s original with the unbelievably monotone music :D! The best of the bunch is definitely the Pole Position vid, since it has so much going on at the same time: Several different sound effects, day and night lighting changes, a swerving track, oncoming traffic and of course the player's car. It really amazing how they put all that together using just an auditorium and human beings as the graphics and sound effects! This is exactly what YouTube is all about in my opinion: Making big ass crazy but really cool and awesome projects that you wanna share with the world. Not some stupid adolescent crybaby making an ass of himself by crying in public about how people are mean to some lonelygirl69 or whatever the hell her name is. I made a playlist for all the Game Over project videos which is embedded below, and am going to add all future videos to it, which I really hope there will be someday. Enjoy =)!

NZXT Hush!

I’ve been looking for a new fairly cheap desktop computer mid-tower case for a while now to replace my two and a half year old trusty but heavy and a bit noisy ThermalRock Dragon. A few days ago I ran into the NZXT Hush, and ultra silent and sleek looking case (picture below), which sounded very convincing in theory.

After reading dozens of reviews of Hush and other mid-tower cases like the Thermaltake Armor Junior, I was torn on which case I should buy. Then YouTube and 3DGAMEMAN came to the rescue, when I found this great video review of the NZXT Hush case. The bloopers in the end (and in most of 3DGAMEMAN’s great videos) are hilarious :D!

Hearing the quietness with my own ears really convinced me that the Hush was the way to go, so I put in an order at Jimm’s PC-Store on Sunday. On Monday the stock amount had gone from six to negative five, so I though I would have to wait for it for a few weeks. Today to my surprise I got an email from Jimm’s saying that my order can be picked up from their store in shopping center Arabia. So tomorrow I’m getting a brand new computer case, FUCK YEAH =)! First I’m gonna test it with my old components (ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe, Athlon 64 3500+, 1 GB ram, 2xMSI 6600GT 128 MB, Levicom Visible Power 450W), to see how well it performs and so I don’t have to use my parents laptop to go online while my new PC (ASUS P5N32-E SLI Plus, Core 2 Duo E6550, 2 GB ram, 2xASUS 8600GT Silent 512 MB, FSP Epsilon FX600-GLN 600W) is down for the upgrade. So I have some good times ahead, since I like playing with computer hardware, I'll have a backup PC excellent for LAN gaming with friends, and my new PC will probably be noticeably quieter and less heavy, yay!

Welcome To My New Blog!

Hello hello! Today I decided to start a new blog in English, contrary to my Finnish blog. This one will differ in content too, because I’m dedicating this blog to all kinds of YouTube related stuff. I’m going to blog things like videos I’ve posted, new video posts, sneak peaks and/or trailers of my upcoming videos, new ideas for my videos, new and old favorites which I want to share etc. My pace probably isn’t going to be daily, weekly, or maybe even monthly, because I’ve just started studying computer science at Helsinki Polytechnic Stadia and also tend to my Finnish blog from time to time, so making new videos will be slow... just bare with me. Most of my videos (picture below) take a lot of work so don’t expect to see a new video right after I’ve announced a new idea or released some sneak peaks or a trailer.

My 20 most viewed videos, of which eleven are self made.

To kick things off I’m going to blog about a new favorite video related to purchasing computer hardware, but first take note on the poll located below my profile on the right. It’s about my newest video The Chronicles of Riddick: Darkness... You Afraid?, which is embedded below along with it’s description. Below the poll, which I aim to change at least monthly, are among others links to my YouTube channel, videos, favorites, playlists, and my FileFront page where you can easily download many of my videos in high quality. Continuing downward, you’ll see my blog archive, from where you can easily jump to any post. As time passes I will probably also construct some kind of appendixes to furthermore make finding stuff easier. Next is the label list. Clicking on one of the labels will bring up all posts labeled with that label, in chronological order. Below the label list I might add some new features from time to time.

Well, that’s all for now. Hope you enjoy my YouTube blog and videos. Feel free to comment on my posts and videos here (by clicking the 0 comment(s) link below each post) and/or at Youtube. Hopefully I’ll see you there =)!

Music: "Mitternacht" by E Nomine
Capture program: Fraps
Editing programs: Windows Movie Maker & Sony Vegas 7.0
Quality settings used: 640x480 2.1 Mbps

This is my third video form the Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay - Developer's Cut. It's a kind of music video (just like the previous ones) and is supposed to present other cool stuff from the game than sneaking, backstabing and hand-to-hand combat like my first two Riddick videos. So I hope you enjoy watching among others some great cinematics, an alien invasion, minigun action, mech battles and much more =)!
