Hiya folks, Last thread was deleted for self-promotion, so this is strictly a blog-post notice for anyone that stumbles on my user-page - given my utter obscurity being able to publicize this to the community most familiar with me would've been cool, but rules is rules! In any case, I made the god-awful decision to dedicate myself to an original series project from my own brain, and after a yea...

It's that time again, folks! A short follow-up to Knives Vs Bats, in which Rykert weigh in. Hope you all enjoy. As always, I'd really appreciate it if folks watched this from that actual video page, to help me track views more easily. And of course, like/comments/favs/shares are always absolutely amazing! Here's the previous entries in the series:

Just a quick blog update to say Sunday Streams continue with a MGS: GROUND ZEROES playthrough! Check it out here: EDIT: Ground Zeroes made my computer exploded, so instead you get some ANIME!

Hey there folks! Some of you may be aware I've started working on a brand new project after completing my GiantBomb Animated work. This project, called Marionette , tells the story of a series of colour-coded character lost in an abstract dreamworld, trying to work out their place in a new society. It focuses on Rainhart, an awkward Red-skinned mute, and Whitmore, a verbose, eccentric White-ski...

Howdy, party-people. Just wanted to let y'all know I'm starting up a livestream event down at YouTube Dot Com to begin work on a Knives Vs Bats follow-up animation. It'll be starting in about ten minutes and probably run for about three hours. Hope I can see you guys there, and feel free to spread the work to fellow GB fans who might be interested!

It's that time again, duders! My Christmas gift to y'all; a brand new, 4-minute-long GiantBomb Animated. Been a long time coming, and I apologize for that, but university studies, driving tests, script-writing and general life stuff (and XCOM) have until-now been sapping away at my animation time. But hey, it's out! Enjoy! As is the norm, I'll remind folks that it really helps me out if you wat...

Apologies that this one is so short, but in the middle of animating my longest GiantBomb Animation work yet, I was struck with inspiration after hearing a particularly wonderful segment from the podcast. Cracked this one out in a couple of days for the community's enjoyment. Hope you all like it! As always, actually watching the video from the YouTube page is a lot more helpful to me, because I...

Been playing the hell out of Fallout 4 (60 hours in just over a week...) and, out of the blue, I suddenly felt inspired to make an animation set in that universe. Not about something IN the game, but actually about something that got removed; the Karma System. Though I missed it in some ways for the first few hours of the game (after all, it's a mainstay of the franchise), I realized that, in r...

So i've been meaning to vent about this for a while, since lately i've been having this constant niggling doubt in my mind about this industry as a whole. I'm going to be talking a bit about what i've been up to that's lead me to my conclusions, then i'm going to be talking about certain aspects of gaming culture, if that's alright with you guys. Oh, and before you worry, no this blog post isn'...

Jesus christ, I must have been really into cola when I was 15. Hey there folks, i'm Jack Saint. You might remember me as the upside-down picture of Matthew Perry you sometimes scroll past when you're browsing the forums. A picture, i'll clarify, I only chose because it happened to be one of the only pictures i've ever uploaded to this site... it was relevant to a blog post I wrote like three ye...

Hey guys, for the last few weeks i've been putting some practice into animating, and just today finished my second animation, this one being about the mixed response to the Sony event last week. Hopefully some of you will get a kick out of it! There's even a little cameo for Jeff, Vinny, Ryan and Patrick! (sorry Brad! next time) See if you can spot them. I'm thinking of doing some Bombcast anim...

Hey duders, I figure now is as good a time as any time mention i've been running a pretty-much-daily webcomic, and put it out there to see if any of you are down with it. It's fairly hit-and-miss but i'm mostly using it as practice for more serious stuff later on, and i'd rather make a few good and a few bad comics than none at all. It's sort of a mix of surreal and parody comedy, though I do a...

So if you pay any attention to my little half-blog here, you'll know I have a website over at www.wearethelayabouts.com , where we make Games, Comics, Videos, Art and other wonderful monstrocities. Well, once a year we're hosting an event called Festabouts to celebrate our anniversaries, a Festival that basically means we upload a crapload of content every day for a whole week. That week draws...

Hey guys, so i've been working on this little guy with some friends of mine for a while now; a website dedicated to showing off the creative drippings of the six of us, some of which can even be considered decent! And I figure now, after months and months of sitework, I should show the finished product to you, probably my favourite gaming community. So without further ado, we welcome you to the...

THERE'S BLOOD EVERYWHERE

So I went to the local Tescos Tescos, in case you're not from the UK, is basically like our Best Buy. Thinking about it, it really isn't important which store i'm in in this story, so i'm going to stop talking about Tescos . So I was in Tescos the other day, shopping my usually shop of sandwich fillings and DVDs which I probably won't watch twice, when I trekked down into the Cola aisle. The co...
