Day 2/1095 Is Over, and Dark Souls II Is Awesome. Day 3 Will Start Off With Tales Of Xillia

It has been an intense streaming day here at Gamigon Live. The whole day have been a Dark Souls II day, and I am slowly but surely starting to fall in love with the game. I have realized that I managed to run past 2 of the games beginning areas, straight into arms of the Dragonrider boss. I realized this, after I had finished him and was well on way into the are beyond the boss. So after some backtracking, even more bossbeating and cool two handed sword swinging, I only got one more thing to say about this game. I love it.

Tomorrow I have decided to begin the stream with my Tales Of Xillia Unknown Difficulty run, and I will play some more Dark Souls 2 after that. That is tomorrow Friday at: 5:00 AM GMT +1 (12:00 AM EST), and it will be day nr 3/1095 of the challenge. So check in then for two awesome games in one stream.

Below you can check out my favorite Dark Souls II moment from today:

3 Year Livestream Challenge Begins Tomorrow

At Wednesday March 19-2014, 5:00 AM GMT +1 (12:00 AM EST) it begins. My stream called Gamigon Live, will be used for it's real purpose. I will start my 3 year livestream challenge at that time. What does that mean? It means, that I will livestream 6-8 Hours/day (sometimes more), for 1095 days. The stream will go live every day at that exact time, during these coming years.

"Why do you want to do this?", is the question I get asked the most. The answer is simple. I love streaming, entertaining and I want this to be my career. I also love challenges, and this one is a challenge that I finally got the chance to try. I am close to 29 Years old when this starts tomorrow morning, and when it ends, I will be close to 32. I have been playing video games since I was 5 years old, during these years, I have had the pleasure of living through all the great video game eras, and now it is time to share it all with you guys, during these 3 years. I will play all kinds of games, both old and new. It will be great fun : ).

The only things that will stop me from streaming is: sickness, serious family troubles and the likes. The days I loose because of an immediate crisis, will be added as extra days at the end, so that no unfortunate accidents will have any effects on the stream.

You can check out the stream at: www.twitch.tv/gamigonlive.
Also feel free to support the stream over at: http://www.patreon.com/gamigonlive

Opening day: Wednesday March 19-2014, 5:00 AM GMT +1 (12:00 AM EST)
The stream will then go live every day at that time for 1095 days.

So what do you think? Will I make it? Or will I break?

What? The Last Of Us Multiplayer Is Awesome? Here are the reasons.

I have to admit, I never thought that I was going to say the following about a singleplayer driven game: The Last Of Us manages to make a multiplayer mode that ties into the games main story in a charming way. I am a guy who loves story driven experiences. That is why I play a lot of singleplayer games. Usually when a story driven game (Tomb Raider, Batman, and the likes) has a multiplayer mode in them, it feels shoehorned and not very interesting.

So what makes The Last Of Us different? Well surprisingly little actually. What caught my eye was the fact that you have a clan that you have to keep alive. All your online battles suddenly feels a bit more important with in mind. I mean if I fail to many battles, the supplies will run dry for my clan, whom are people that tries to survive the apocalypse. It's Men, Women and children all trying to survive in the harsh world of The Last of Us. It makes me happy everytime I succeed a battle, since more people move into my clan, and the ones that were there from the beginning survive a day longer.

The gameplay itself is pretty standard. Two teams competing in different game modes, while having all the nifty gadgets that were also available in the singleplayer, to their disposal. It's simple and fun because I have that clan in the back of my head. Now, the single player is still the real meat of the game, but it is because it showed me how harsh the world is for everyone in The Last Of Us, that I can appreciate the multiplayer portions clan system. Well done Naughty Dogs, I hope other companies takes a peek at your simple idea and tries to make multiplayer an experience that ties into the world, instead of isolating itself from it.

So why do I write this article after the game already been out for so long? Because developers need to know that their game is being loved and enjoyed after it's release, so that the game industry can become a better place. At least I hope that is possible...

Take a look below to see some footage of my first experiences of the multiplayer portions of the game. It was all livestreamed here at Gamigon Live!

Yesterday's stream highlights!

Wow yesterday was an amazing day. First of all I started to stream some more, Dead Nation: Apocalypse Edition here at Gamigon Live! I played it co-op with Tomlans, and there were burning zombies, fog, and graveyards everywhere! If you missed it you can check out the recorded stream here: http://www.twitch.tv/gamigonlive/b/508751725

After a 40 minute break, I was continuing with my Final Fantasy 7 No Shop Run Challenge, where I had some serious problem with Lost Number, and was super surprised that a certain boss at Cosmo Canyon, could not be killed with a Phoenix Down anymore. Wow.

This stream had to be split in two parts at the following links: http://www.twitch.tv/gamigonlive/b/508800393 http://www.twitch.tv/gamigonlive/b/508838692

Dead Nation Apocalypse Edition: Awesome Highlights From Yesterdays Stream (March 5 - 2014)

Yesterday I played and streamed Dead Nation: Apocalypse Edition, for the PlayStation 4, live right here on Gamigon Live! It was an awesome experience, with a lot of action. The game felt great at 1080p, looking nice and clean. You could see further ahead than the PS3 counterpart, thanks to the higher resolution as well.  It also worked like a charm in online co-op, which is nice.

Gamigon Live! will continue playing and streaming Dead Nation: Apocalypse Edition today at 10:00 AM PST (18:00 GMT +0) and continue for at least 4+ hours. After that Gamigon Live! will continue with the Final Fantasy VII No Shop Challenge, for everyone who is also following that. So a lot of fun happening tonight.

Final Fantasy VII Gamigon Live! No Shop Challenge Highlights - Day 3

So the third part is done! It was a crazy run last night. I found a surprisingly good weapon for Tifa, Cloud accidentally dies twice leaving me with two characters for awhile, and Dyne was easier to beat in Corel Prison than I thought he would be. I felt so lucky during all these times, except for the Dyne battle when I felt super skilled : ). So another great streamday here at Gamigon Live!

Head over to twitch.tv/gamigonlive to check out the recording, and do check out the highlights below:

Highlights From The Second Day Final Fantasy VII Stream

The 4+ hours of day two have just been concluded in the Final Fantasy VII No Shop Challenge Stream, here on Gamigon Live!. It included a mistake of having to use two Phoenix Downs way to early in the game, the crossdressing scene at wall market,  two boss battles where I overestimated the bosses potential and beat them quicker than ever before, as well as the Sephiroth and Cloud in Nibelheim story part.

So far I must say that it is really exciting to play the game without using shops. It really makes every drop, steal and chest count way more than it did before. It's fun and entertaining. If you missed it you can check the whole archived stream at: http://www.twitch.tv/gamigonlive/b/508037933.

I also prepared some neat highlights for you to watch below:

Gamigon Live Will Stream Dead Nation Apoclypse Edition For PS4 On Day1

Tomorrow mark the day for a great re-release title on the PS4 in the US (Wednesday in the EU) . Dead Nation: Apocalypse Edition, developed my Housmarque (Resogun), will see the light of day,as a Playstation Plus title, both in EU and US regions. The game was originally released for the PlayStation 3 back in 2010, and became quite popular, as it offered some great arcade like zombie action. Not only will the PlayStation 4 version include the original campaign for solo and co-op action, it will also include the Road To Devastation expansion, as well as running in glorious 1080p.

I really liked Dead Nation when it was released for the PS3, so now it is going to be fun giving it another blast at the PS4. More importantly, Gamigon Live! will stream the game at it's EU release day on Wednesday March 5. I can't wait to dive into the zombie hordes once again! Be sure to do it with me : )

Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix Finale Highlights and Final Thoughts about the 1.5 HD Remix Version

Last night I finished up Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix on proud mode live on the stream. It was just as epic as I remember it. The confrontation with "Ansem" was just as cool as the first time I fought against him. I have to say, that when a game throws in three final bosses in a row like Kingdom Hearts does, it gets the blood pumping. Here are my final thoughts about the HD version of the game.

So what do I think about the 1.5 HD Remix version of Kingdom Hearts? Well, it is really great to have a true widescreen version of the game finally, most of the textures have scaled up pretty well, and the cg cutscenes look glorious in HD. I found a cool bug where enemies became invisible, which I have not encountered in Kingdom Hearts before, but except for that it runs well while looking great. Especially when you take into account that the game is 12 years old. So all in all, Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD Remix is a great version of the game to play. it looks crisp and feels very much like a modern action rpg should.

If you missed the finale on the Gamigon Live Stream last night, you may look up the archived footage at: twitch.tv/gamigonlive. Also check out the final boss highlight below : ).

Sora Fighting Riku: An Exciting Highlight Video With A Near Death Kill

Hello everyone!

Tonight's stream is done, and my adrenaline is finally starting calm down, after one of the most grueling Riku boss-fight that I have ever experienced. I finished him off with only a mm of health left. This just proved to me once again that "Proud Mode" is nothing to laugh at in Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix. This is not only one of my favorite games for the good old PS2, it might also be one of the most challenging ones. At least on the highest difficulty. What do you think? Is Riku difficult to beat in KH 1?

Suda 51's Short Peace Ranko Tsukigime's Longest Days: New Details On Combustible

Today Namco Bandai Games revealed new details on Combustible, the second movie (out of four) in the Short Peace saga. Combustible is apparently directed by Katsuhiro Otomo, the same guy who created Akira and Steamboy. It's going to be about a merchants daughter, an impossible love story and a burning 18th century Edo. Sounds exiting!

For all those who do  now know, the Short Peace saga consist of 4 short Anime movies, topped of by Ranko Tsukigime's Longest Days, a game by Suda51 that takes place last in that timeline. It is about Ranko Tsukigime who is a normal schoolgirl....except hat she assassinates people at night. Throw in an organization that dabbles in demon business, and we have a winner!!

Personally I can't wait for the Short Peace saga to be released. 4 movies and a game is a pretty good deal.
I look forward to it so much that I have decided to stream gameplay from Ranko Tsukigime's longest day, the same day I get it sent to my door. When is that you ask? Well, the game is set for a release in Europe and Eurasia Spring 2014 for PlayStation 3, so it should not be to far off. I will watch the movies and stream the game on release day, right here on Gamigon Live! Have a look at the trailer below for some in game animation and side-scrolling action footage:

I can't wait for another Suda game! Are you guys excited as well?

Top-5 Reasons As To Why Kingdom Hearts Is Still A Great Game

There has been a lot of Kingdom Hearts streaming going here on Gamigon Live! lately, and as all of you who have followed my stream know, I love the game a lot, even though it is 12 years old by now. So I have decided to share with you my top-5 reasons, as to why Kingdom Hearts is still the awesome game that it always has been, even today.

Reason Number 5: Graphics have aged well for such an old game

Even today the first Kingdom Hearts game looks great. All the environments, was thoughtfully crafted by Square's artists, no texture or 3d-model feels misplaced or bad. Also the graphics shader every Disney character pop-out in exactly the right way. Sure Kingdom Hearts 2 looks even better, and Kingdom Hearts 3 will look amazing, but for a 12 year old game, The first game in the series, can still give a bit of a fight in the graphical department.

Reason Number 4: The Battles are solid and fun

One of the key gameplay moments in Kingdom Hearts, are it's battles. They are action-filled fun and controls well. Sure Sora might feel a bit "glued to the ground" at times, but there is not a single moment where I can blame the controller for my mistakes on Proud mode. The level, and equipment systems are easy to understand, but still makes for a lot customization option, to suit each players unique playstyle. Oh, and the bosses are amazingly fun to fight as well.

Reason Number 3: Fun Minigames

There are a plethora of mini games in the first Kingdom Hearts game, and most of them are really fun. Yes the gummi ship part of the game is a shore, and it is one of many improvements in the second game, but other than that, all side activities in Kingdom Hearts fits right into the recipe.

Reason Number 2: Fun exploration

It is fun to explore the worlds of Kingdom Hearts. There are collectibles hidden everywhere, and when you arrive to a new world, you just want to explore so that you can go "woooow" when you notices stuff that you recognize from Disney movies. You can't go wrong with Disney worlds.

Reason Number 1: I Love The Story

The thing people usually underestimates when it comes to Kingdom Hearts, is it's story. Even I took a look at the game at first and said: "Wow the story must be childish". Do not be fooled! There is not one moment of Kingdom Hearts story where I have felt that it's written for children. It's a mature, cool, funny and exciting story, that goes so well with the theme. It is however very confusing at times. Confusing in a good way.

So these are my top-5 reason that Kingdom Hearts is still a good game. Do you agree? Feel free to comment! Also do not forget to check in on the Gamigon Live! Plays Kingdom Hearts stream tonight at: 1:00 PM PST (21:00 PM GMT +0).
