Best of 2007 – March

Our Best of 2007 series continues with March!

March 2007 was a time of expansion. We tried to grow to new frontiers. While some worked and others didn’t, it’s all another chapter in the history of StuffWeLike.

The Pipeline Club
Syndicate The Pipeline and get free advertising for it; why wouldn’t you want to?! That was the idea behind The Pipeline Club.

StuffWeLike Video Cast #11
After 10 episodes, you’d think we could make these things with a flick of a wrist! That’s apparently not the case. This episode featured the team going to a Seagate tournament. We didn’t set the audio to come from the handheld microphone so tons of background noise ensues and we get a useless episode. What a waste.

Our Media player gets a name
When we launched The Pipeline, we didn’t really have a name for it. It was just a mixture of videos uploaded by StuffWeLike. We realized that websites didn’t want to syndicate a player called StuffWeLike.com so we came up with the name The Pipeline. Yes it was really that simple.

Danny “Falls” Down stairs
This is another long story about the a**holes of the StuffWeLike team. When I was attending the Game Developer Conference, I sent an instant message to Mark Gravender. His replied message said that Danny Baruela fell down the stairs and had to go to the hospital. The next day I found out that it was Danny who wrote that message and meant it as a joke. These sort of “jokes” are totally not funny.

The Fatman Comes to StuffWeLike
The composer of the PC game The 7th Guest allowed us to air its music on the Video Game Music channel.

The Pipeline menu change
Looking back on what The Pipeline used to look like, I laugh and run away.

The Dorms
My first fictional video since The Next-Generation of Heroes. Damn I play a lot of whinny characters. 😉

Power Rangers: Operation Overdrive
Oh Power Rangers, when will you die? The new season of Power Rangers begins and it taints the brand name yet again.

Command & Conquer 3
I’m a huge fan of the Command & Conquer series, but I hated C&C Generals. Thankfully EA relaunched the series with C&C3 and they got things right! Of course I have still yet to purchase the game…

The Dorms Summer Edition

Funny enough, we never made The Dorms episode 2. After the successful first episode and the “want” to do more episodes, things caved in. Over the summer David Corwin and I went ahead and tried our hands making a spin-off to The Dorms called The Dorms Summer Edition. It failed. We never released it to the public because it was just so bad.

Having 3 people work from cameramen to actors to writers is not a good idea – especially when none of them are directly studying film. What a fiasco.

I’ve warned you ahead of time that the summer edition is a crappy spin-off, as all spin-offs are.

Enjoy.
