The Hellhole: Die Hard Trilogy

What began as an off-the-cuff acknowledgement of the slightly ridiculous username "Mick Lucifer", and a generally dubious standard of quality, now becomes a title. A Very Hellhole Christmas puts the "Hellhole" name in writing with the first elaborate intro, and a second foray into broadcasting PlayStation.

This stream proves significant for both the game audio being strangely out of synch -- and capturing the gradual realization that I'm going to be unwell on Christmas Day. Testing ruled out COVID-19, but this would otherwise derail the streaming experiment for longer than intended.

The Hellhole: Porsche Challenge

Exploration into live video game streaming continues with the first attempt at broadcasting a title from the original PlayStation library. There is some noticeable crackle in audio that will be corrected in future streams. Otherwise, the novelty of wielding older tech proves amusing -- even if returning to a once favourite game proves relatively fruitless. Like riding a bike, it ain't.

The Hellhole: Cyber Shadow Pt 6 - Last Train to Cyberville

Third time's supposed to be the charm, but after accidentally broadcasting with two microphones in an inaugural test stream -- this time a snafu of settings meant running with none. Considered by Hellhole aficionados as the now CLASSIC "silent issue" of Cyber Shadow.

The Hellhole: Cyber Shadow Pt 5 - Go Ninja Go

Having dabbled in streaming video games for a little while I decided to up the difficulty by adding camera & mic. Results vary wildly.
