Title: [need your opinion] SEGAbits TGS talk-a-thon (with the staff)
Post by: George on September 10, 2011, 05:11:43 am

OK, basically a few days ago Cory gave me an idea about doing a live blog. It was interesting, but since we aren't live at the event, I thought it wouldn't go too well.

Then I thought about doing some MSN chat where we all talk with each other. Nah, too lame. Then I thought about doing sorta of a ... Swingin' Report Show live. Its not going to be recorded or anything, but sort of like the staff and community people getting on Team Speak with each other and talking during the SEGA press conferences in Japan. We can talk about the news right when it hits.

I know it runs on servers, thus making communication with more people easier. Skype doesn't run on this. Though the servers are pay to use.

In the end of the day we have to choose if you guys are into it and if you guys prefer Ventrilo or Team Speak software.

Sounds good to me, I'd suggest mumble though

Sounds like a cool idea.

I don't know about Vent. A lot of funny trolls happen there. But I'll see if I can download Team Speak.

We could also use Steam voice chat, it allows for conferencing I believe. Not sure how the quality is, we'd need to test it out probably before hand.

Was a fantastic first day, if a bit like a madhouse. I promise to make more random noises if Yakuza 5 or if Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown is shown.

Hong Kong. Time difference messes it up. It seems like a great tgs from what I've read and seen though.
