About Me




Fresh outta college, one of those stereotypical, bumbling jobless "journalists" wanting to become a "vidya gaems jarnalist". And so the hunt for a job he likes begins! And no, he's not going back to school to become a pharmacist technician, like his mom nags him to be.



I also have a YouTube channel (above image). Self-taught video editing! I'm still unemployed you know, potential hirers!

360 Friday Night Fight Replays: It's a thing now edition!
StriderHoang | 1:22 PM on 09.13.2011 8 comments




Greetings and freetings fellow YouTube saavy Dtoiders! I'm here to prove that last week's Replays were not just a fluke. They said it couldn't be done (they, probably meaning my low-end laptop), they said it was impossible (again, my laptop. It probably shouldn't be using so much resources for rendering). But I proved them wrong (I, meaning me). If it happens twice, it's not a coincidence!

What is Friday Night Fight Replays?
Friday Night Fight Replays is a compilation of gameplay I've recorded from the 360 FNF. They do not reflect FNF as a whole but rather just the games I participated in. That being said, I try to play as many different games as possible for FNF Replays. FNFR goes up the Tuesday after the last FNF.

From last week's FNF of 09/09/11, I had something special in store. Or it would've been special had more people played Dead Island. Luckily, I didn't really like Dead Island, so really you didn't miss out on much. However, garethxxgod swings by to save the day and gives me the chance to realize just how racist I could be if I were a Chinese woman working with a black man. Thanks for that!

Also I got you your daily dose of Monday Night Combat courtesy of Perfidious Sinn. And who'da thunkit, our party didn't steamroll! Because Im Beastin Son is an incredibly obnoxious Assault with incredibly obnoxious Assault teammates and an incredibly obnoxious Support. Thanks for that!

Without further ado, here are this week's replays for FNF@Dtoid, 09/09/11


Monday Night Combat

Game #1
GrenadeIII, stop being so shitty and please leave. Your severance check will be mailed to you shortly.

Game #2
I don't know how to describe this clusterfuck so here's some onomatopoeia I've always wanted to use. BLAM, KRACK, BOOM, SLICE, RODNEY DANGERFIELD.

Game #3
Every time I feel like playing Assassin, the game makes me host. At least host jetgun is amazing.

Game #4
It's all over. We've discovered the perfect team make up: 1 Support + as many Assaults as possible.

Game #5
We're due dammit! We're goddamn due for a win.


Dead Island

Part 1
What happens when 1 Chinese hotel worker/undercover spy and 1 ghetto ass black rapper get stuck together on an island filled with zombies? They stop being fake and start being real. The Real World: Banoi.

Part 2
Thinking critically about the game as we try not to think while hacking off body parts and mashing in zombie heads.

That's it for this week's FNFR. Or, "Finfir." I'll see you guys again next week.

Ooh, this is an interesting new feature. This would be a lot of fun if you hopped in some fighting games too I bet. I hosted a super last minute 3rd Strike lobby Friday that got a lot of good Dtoid fighters like Shin Oni, Tactix and FalconReaper, I almost considered doing this exact same thing (I like watching my own matches and seeing where I goofed), but then I remembered 3rd Strike had it's own upload to Youtube feature...and then I remembered it uploads to a stock Capcom Youtube channel and not your own Youtube channel...so that was a waste.

Anyways, tangent aside, I like this idea! And The Real World: Hanoi is my new name for Dead Island. Sorry Left 4 Borderlands.

bookmarked so I can watch these later... awesome idea! I did tape some MAG footage... but video editing is apparently not my forte. :(

That Assault(Twofer King) in Game 1 was steaming my beans. I'm pretty sure all of my deaths were from him bombing me off the edge. And in Game 4 you can see that my Buzzer spam is the cause of, and solution to all life's problems,

Overall, good times were had and plenty of random Persona 4 jokes were made.

@Apathy If you're referring to them on a first name basis, I am intimidated. But fight talk should be interesting on a video.

@Else Like, actual, 90s, VHS tape? o_o

@Sinn Buzzers are the answer to anything.

Clearly this is the greatest thing ever because I was apart of it. That literally was pretty much my first few steps in Dead Island. Learning as you go is fun but don't expect good driving.
