    Great idea. I have been watching lots of TOP GEAR shows at Google Video. I'll surely check Retrocore too.

    Isn't Holland another place without it? I'm sure someone here mentioned that.

    Thanks for the comments guys. Working on the ending now. It's no where near as cool as the intro however it's still nice IMO :lol:

    I liked it. :)
    only problem I had was that the text disepeard a little to fast for me so I missed some of it.

    I also wonderd, some times some pixels shows up on the left side in the dark areas of the movie.. are they supposed to be there?

    but altogether I really liked it :)

    Some text does move quickly to keep the length of the opening down but Google Video misses out some frames which makes it move even quicker. Plus Google video changed the audio to mono as well as down sampling the image.

    Ah, you spotted it? Yeah that's a mistake on my part. When viewing the intro on DVD you don't notice that but when viewed on a PC in a window you can see it because the "whole" image is displayed. That was caused by my masking frame (wide screen boarders) being too short in some scenes. Under that masking frame is all the nasty sprite pop up and basically mess :nod: the wonders of hiding stuff. Sort of like sweeping al the crap under the carpet :lol: You know it's there but nobody else does.

    ah, ok then I know ;)
    just of curiosity, what game is that from?
    I'm no sega person.. so I'm not that familiar with the games for theire consoles (but I'm hoping for that to change :) )

    Liked it in general, sir.

    Just two issues. The way the two characters "jump" on the scene when they walk is sort of weird, and "outnumber" is one word instead of two. Other than that, it's awesome. I'm really looking forward to episode 18.

    They are running, not jumping :110: making it look as if they were running wasn't easy though. maybe smaller "jumps" would have been better? Oh, yeah that's right outnumber is one word but like I said in the past, the longer I'm in Japan the worse my English becomes :lol: Thanks for the point though. I'll change that before I add it to the show.

    For those wondering I ripped the graphics from a Mega CD game called Illusion City by Microcabin.

    That is pretty cool man. I assume there is no hidden meaning to the text? :lol:

    Well, the German goverment is known for banning all sorts of odd stuff in games so maybe they have the same problem with Google Video?
