Goodbye YouTube
Well it seems like it finally happened. We got “3 strikes” on our YouTube account and automatically suspended. We saw this coming a couple of weeks ago and started to make preparations in case this occurred. We will not let this affect HPAW as we now have our own video player that should work for most people.
We are currently in the process of making our older content available in this new player and everything up to and including the Resident Evil 5 marathon is already available. Your comments on this post will help us decide which marathons/episodes to do next. We do not expect this to be a short process and it may be quite some time before all videos are available in the new player.
In other news, the Crysis marathon has been completed with the release of the combined Part 9 & 10. So please check out the front page and try the new video player for videos going back to RE5. Also take the following poll and leave your comments. For video playback help please email videosupport@hpaw.net for assistance.
UPDATE: I URGE people to try videos other than the Crysis Marathon before answering this poll. The Crysis Marathon has much higher requirements than our other videos.
Poll of the Week: June 27th
The return of the poll! I need help in determining what filesize (which relates directly to video quality) we should use to appeal to the largest number of people. We currently have a guideline not to pass the 1.5GB/video mark. The main considerations are how much disk space people have (if they can store it), their internet download rate (how fast they can get the episode), and their internet download cap (how much they can download in a month). So please answer our simple poll so we can figure this out and deliver the highest quality to the most people.
HPAW May 13th 2009: Mad World
Welcome to HPAW’s first live episode! Massive amounts of blood and gore for everyone. You see Jack doesn’t fight people he kicks their ass, with a chainsaw! We welcome a full cast and our live audience on Justin.tv for this epic and historical game on the Wii, Mad World.
A couple of side notes. No one in the studio before this episode had ever played this game. There will not be an HD version of this episode (Wii does not output in HD).
FEAR M.E.
UPDATE: The “Climax” chapter is now available. The FEAR M.E. project has been completed.
Hello and welcome to a special HPAW project. As some of you know I (Mempf for you new people) am a huge F.E.A.R. fan (enough to use the .’s most of the time apparently). And although I was initially a little disappointed with F.E.A.R. 2, the more I think about it it really is a fantastic game.
So what is FEAR M.E.? It is a marathon of sorts. Not of our traditional kind though. For F.E.A.R. 2 a group of people would ruin the mood and immersion the game so well creates. I will however be using the HPAW microphone to capture my feedback and comments of the story alone with other things.
I do plan to play through the whole game (Monolith I promise this will only make more sales!) however my time frame for completing this is currently unknown. Oh and FEAR M.E. means FEAR the Mempf Experience so please enjoy.

UPDATE: Poll of the week: June 15th
Update: From the poll results thus far it seems the majority of you guys don’t know what bittorrent even is. Here is a link to help you understand this miracle of the internet:

Poll of the Week: Anonymous Edition
Well it is February 10th and unless you have been living under a virtual rock you probably know of Anonymous and their goal to dismantle Scientology. If however you don’t a quick Google search will likely get you up to speed.
Poll of the Week: January 27th
Now that we have much more server space we can start to restore deleted videos and it’s up to you the viewers to decide which you want to return first.
Poll of the Week: January 6th
Not only do I have a new poll for you guys but a little update on HPAW as well. We hopefully should be able to find time to film the Call of Duty 4 marathon soon however we all have jobs now and unfortunately it has become very difficult to schedule a time that works for all of us. I know that I’m starting to sound like Little Kuriboh which is why I refuse to give even a rough estimate on when the marathon will be up. With the Christmas Break now over I will be trying my hardest to get this marathon underway.
Thanks for your continued patience
