Friday Talkie: TeamVVV + Q&A #9

Friday Talkie: TeamVVV + Q&A #9


I have joined the team at TeamVVV to contribute retro racing game videos to the fantastic content already on that site.
https://www.teamvvv.com/

You can find my page there at https://www.teamvvv.com/en/Steve-Benway

Do also please check out Alan's teamvvv youtube channel
https://www.youtube.com/user/teamvvv

Q&A #9

ScribbleSamAnimation - What is your opinion over the recent controversy over a playable character in the latest upcomming Tekken game? The character in question is "Lucky Chloe". There has been a big hate campaign against her and they want Namco to remove her from the game. I'm not fantastically sure why but I think it's because she's cute and she brings JPop music to mind.
What's your opinion?

Waldon Newman - I have a Youtube channel and yes its rubbish, the thing is I would do more videos and I have a few ideas but, I will get to the point soon promise! is I cant stand to listen to my own voice so I dont want to learn to edit videos and listen to myself talk ! Have you had this problem... not liking the sound of your own voice... and if you did how did you over come it ?

Robert Berry - As a fellow Atari 8-Bit user, might I ask what game, aside from the awesome Defender, was your favourite on that system and why? Many thanks.


LastofAvari - if BBC called you to make a 10 minute weekly program on retro gaming or gaming in general for them would you accepted it?

metro2002 - Do you think console gaming is becoming more like PC gaming with updates, broken firmware versions etc on consoles nowadays? And did you game on your amiga back in the day or just use it as a workhorse?

Hamer the Gamer - Good day Sir. A few questions if you don't mind
1. Are you planning on getting other Everdrive carts or multicart devices for the other systems?
2. Are you planning on upgrading your PC system next year for Elite Dangerous as I know you're interested in the game?
3. Do you black pudding?

MarkTheMorose - Hi Steve. I just learned today that Ralph Baer died on the 6th of December. Just wondered if you'd care to say a few words on the Q and A about him, as he is about as pivotal a figure in the world of home video gaming as you can get. Also, are there any unsung heroes in the gaming world you'd like to be more widely known?

Anthony Rice - Q1 Whats your opinion on the failed Sega Saturn? I'm personally a big fan of it. I reckon it has the best non-analog game controller ever made.

Q2 Do you have a preference For mechanical keyboards when using computers? If so. What switches have you tried, cherry, Topre, IBM buckling spring etc and which do you prefer?
Thanks Mr Benway

RECORDthenRETURN - What's your favourite piece of cover art or packaging out of all the games in your collection?

TheRetrospective81 - are you a fan of Christmas? do you still think its as good as when you were younger or is it now an overly commericalized piece of crap? Favourite Christmas Song?

courtneyfriel - Did you like the Blade Runner 1985 video game for the Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum and Amstrad CPC or the Blade Runner 1997 video game point-and-click adventure game developed by Westwood Studios.

guitarHero1885 - guitarHero1885 1 day ago
for friday: what are your top 5
british comedies
favourite songs
top 10 ps1/ps2 games

Lego Races - A few questions for you:
1- F1 is becoming more like endurance racing but then shorter. What do you think about endurance racing? Do you watch the 24 hours of Le mans for example?
2- Have you ever seen an Grand Prix irl? If yes did you like it? If no would you like to go to an F1 race?
3- If you have the power, what would you do to make F1 better in your mind?

Keep an eye on these two channels in the coming days :)

"For Friday" Q&A #8

"For Friday" Q&A #8


therangersrule68 - Was the Mega Drive the console that made consoles mainstream in the UK and Europe? What qualities made it break through against the Amiga and ST?


ScribbleSamAnimation
1 - Since you like to play Barbie games, I thought I'd ask you this
question. What is your opinion on CareBears? :P
2 - Recently in Australia, a shop over there banned the sale of Grand Theft Auto 5 in response to a Feminist campaign. What is your opinion on this?
3 - Do you like Martial Arts films and do you have any favorite films 
and stars like Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee.
4 - If you had your own video game "Steve Benway: The Game" what would happen in this game and which console would it be on?

Hugh James Cooksley - Another GT related question from me, If you could pick any car to add to a gran turismo game what would it be? 

Lego Races - 1: Are you going to do a Q&A or other form of talky outside walking around?
2: Do you think that Grand Prix manager games can sill be successful in 201X?
3: What was your first reaction when you saw that you can play like animals in GTA-5?

Chris James - have you ever done any computer programming and did you ever want to work in the video game industry? If so, in what capacity?
What are the ten best / your ten favourite video games of all-time on any platform including arcades?

ac5015 - Who are the top five youtubers you would like to do a 
collaboration or crossover with. I know you have said in the past you don't do well in social situations . But if you could do it without 
being uncomfortable.

Anzaq 1869 - Hi Steve. Do you prefer to do your Xmas shopping online or do it the old fashioned way and go out to the shops?

Jerry Joe - If u only had 2 games. A super awesome racing game, & a super awesome action adventure/fps...which one would u play more?

wingnut4427 - What is the first game that made your heart race with excitement, anxiety, or excitement because you were so close to beating it?

Matt Hopper - do you enjoy podcasts and if so how? I think you could present your 4Fridays as podcasts on iTunes or something, the format is perfect! Or would it divert focus from this channel? Just an idea!

"For Friday" Q&A #7

"For Friday" Q&A #7



Daniel Cordell - Do you think SEGA CD 32X would have survived against the Saturn as a cheaper option if they made it an all in one?
As WWE can't give you the wrestling fix you like anymore. Is there any other promotions on Youtube, their own website, or Sky TV that does it for you?

Chris Bateman / Gregory York / A1dy74   - Have you seen or heard about the new sinclair spectrum vega?

David james Logue - Do you like the resident evil games? Do you have any fav's or memories of playing them?

wingnut4427  - What are your top 5 favorite youtube gaming channels & why ?

9ElevenGamer - What was the last time you lost your rag with a game, and what game was it?

Chris James  -  Is there any retro game that you enjoyed the first time you played it, but when you went back to it you found yourself thinking “hold on…this is shite”?
Are there any games from any era of gaming that you consider to be particularly over-rated ?
Are there any particularly obscure games that you believe have been criminally neglected and more people should know about?

ScribbleSamAnimation - 1. Why do you like Spiderman and if so what are some of your favorite Spiderman games and/or games in which Spiderman has appeared in
2. Do you find it a bit cliche when Mark from CGR would stick a MegaDrive game into a SNES?
3.What are your opinions on Hatsuné Miku . If you're not familiar, she is a 'Vocaloid' which is basically a Voice Synthesizer program for your PC that you type in some lyrics, alter her voice and make her sing. People have made Hatsune Miku do cover versions of many songs, and here's one of them. I think she's cool!!
4. What is your favorite radio station? Mine's Absolute Radio. I mostly listen to Absolute Radio 90's.

Andrew Advent - You've talked about your vision getting poorer, what are your thoughts on getting laser vision correction?

Gary Hart - Have you considered getting a Gotek Floppy Emulator for you Amiga 500 ?
If you have not got one already ?

TyFlip - during your younger years, nostalgia kicking in, what sort of pubs/clubs did you frequent as a young lad, music genres you were into as a young un and what sort of clientele did you encounter? Rough? Any funny drunken incidents? Nitty gritty please. Thanks.

guitarHero1885 - for friday: would you ever consider pc gaming instead of consoles and what are the pros and cons to pc over consoles or consoles over pc in your opinion? related to gaming and other functions.

browland1 - Music-related question. What are your thoughts on music going from physical format to all digital? Personally, I love shopping for music in a brick and mortar store and owning a large collection of physical albums. I don't get the same satisfaction from a bunch of files on my PC.

Daniel Cordell - What term do you prefer for the systems that are in the stores not talking about them coming out but they are here already. Next Gen or Current Gen?

Zabeus  - Considering that you play racing games better with a game pad than with a wheel, do you think real cars should come equipped with game pads? This is a serious question.

"For Friday" Q&A #3

"For Friday" Q&A #3

TheEPROM9  - Is there any course or subject you regret (or wish you had taken up) not taking up back in education?
For me it is A-level maths, university has changed my attitude to maths and it would have given me slightly more choice as well as made certain aspects of the course I did much essayer.

ScribbleSamAnimation -
1 - Would you say "For Friday" is the new "Friday Talkie"?

2 - Have you ever played with a Rubik's Cube and solved it?

3 - What are your opinions on Weird Al Yankovic?

4 - Are you interested in learning Japanese and/or any other language?


FiXato - For Friday: if you had to sell or otherwise get rid off, 10 (or whichever arbitrary number you fancy) systems in your collection, which would those be, and why?
(For instance because they are taking up too much space, would yield the most money, offers/offered the least enjoyment, etc.)


Sleven324 - Is there a system that you don't have that you would like to get.

MrBuck295 - For Friday
I guess I should have asked (knowing all your consoles are retro ,my stupidity sorry)
what console do you play the most and what game do you play the most even if the game is on a different console
Thanks in advance


Chris James -  for friday....this is a bit of a complex and philosophical question, but i would be interested to hear your answer...i have my own opinion and will answer it myself once you have...

i gather you are not enamoured with modern console gaming partly due to technical issues but also because there is nothing significantly new in the medium...do you think theres nothing new due to commercial pressures, due to hardware limitations, due to a lack of imagination, due to the fact that the existing games are selling therefore there's no need for anything new, or some other reason?


Panini MattGFC1893 - For Friday. Do you think it time to set the record straight and say ET on Atari 2600 is not the worst game ever.Hi tech expression must be the worst games company of all time there games are just so poor and unplayable It unreal .My worst game of all time is Spice World on the Playstation one knocking Bride-it on Amstard CPC to the no.2 spot.So Sir Steve Benway what is your choice for worst game ever.


therangersrule68 - For next friday: what was your biggest case of buyer's remorse with a console or computer?


MrBuck295 - For Friday (hope this one has not been asked )
Have you now or ever thought about getting insurance for your equipment ,in case of fire or theft


Snestastic  -
1) Which is your favourite Joystick & why?

2) Age old question, commodore/speccy or Amstrad?

3) Is the c64 gs worth the money?

4) What has been the most seminal moment for you during your gaming career?


lilacfloyd - For Friday.
If you could go back in time for one day what year would you go back to and what would you do? The time travelling rules are up to you.
Like you my favourite film is Blade Runner but I've never read the book it was based on. Have you read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?



Markis5150 - Question for you. When Pac-Man released in arcades in 1980 what was your take on it? Did you like the game? Was it massively popular there?

"For Friday" - Q&A #1

"For Friday" - Q&A #1

Fawltykog - For Friday... What is your favourite FALL Lp?

FiXato - For Friday Q&A:
With console games and the consoles itself now requiring software updates and perhaps even hardware upgrades in the form of new hard disks and peripherals, as well as not really needing physical media and relying on external servers, and PCs requiring less frequent hardware upgrades, you could say the borders between console and pc gaming are fading away. Does this make you reconsider your opposition to PC gaming, or rather, what keeps you from pc gaming?

Shaun George - For Friday: your house is on fire and you only have time to save one system and three of its games. Which system, which games, and why?

musicmaniac1965 - For Friday Q&A:
As you know, i follow your channel a long time. I am curious about just one thing: It's obvious you are really good at Gran Turismo games. But there must have been a time you also had to learn this game. If you liked a new different brand racer, would you be able to practice and get equally good at it as you did with Gran Turismo, or is there a speciffic reason you only play this racer?

GigerPunk - For Friday: Driving music, yes or no? If yes, what do you like to go for? (Obviously, depends on mood a lot of time, but what would be your favourite driving tunes?)

lilacfloyd - For Friday. With the PS5 and the next Xbox rumoured to be released around 2020ish. Is that too late? When do you think the next generation of consoles should be released, what with 4K and other new technologies that are imminent?

Gabbo! - For Friday Q&A. I know this is a broad question but what are some of your expectations for GT7? i.e better sound, more or less cars?

Hugh James Cooksley - What game/console have you had for the longest period of time? E.g I still have the same gameboy colour my mum bought when I was 7 in 2003.

TheRetrospective81 - For Friday, how come you never go to the really big Play event in Manchester every year? Would you ever go in the future or do you prefer the smaller, more initmate events like the events at Blackpool etc??

Andy Hilton  - Hi Steve a question for Friday, do you think the current gen consoles will be the last as we know it and next gen games will just be streamed through tv by subscription? And another one what do you think Facebook will do with the Oculus Rift?

Dixie Pickles - For Friday - As remakes of games are so popular these days. Which retro game would you like to see being remade and why?

Dave Webster - For Friday: other than cost, what would be the deciding factor for taking the plunge and going for one of the new consoles in the future?

Installing GT6 with 12 Updates from scratch when in-game update fails.

Installing GT6 with 12 Updates from scratch when in-game update fails.


Many people (myself included) have had a problem with installing updates on Gran Turismo 6 when starting from scratch. After putting the disk in, it insists on installing 12 (at the time of making this video) updates, which are downloaded, one after another, and then installed in one go. Sadly, at the end of the installation, it gives an error message, and the installation fails. After some investigation, I've come across a suggested remedy, which is what you see here. You can probably stop watching after the first 5 minutes or so, as you'll have the idea, and only those interested in random Benway rambling need continue watching.

Friday Talkie: Pong Machine. Wrong About A Game

Friday Talkie: Pong Machine. Wrong About A Game



First I show you (and talk about) this Adman Grandstand TVG 3600 MKII pong system that was very generously given to me by Chris, Novabug. https://www.youtube.com/user/Novabug Next I talk about how I've reappraised my opinion of Gran Turismo 6. I had previously decided that the difficulty balance was somewhat off, which to my mind, spoiled my enjoyment of the game. On further playing though, I've concluded that it was my choices while playing of the game that were incorrect, and the game is in fact as excellent as I'd originally hoped.

First, a video response to MonkeySpaz5000, "Do you play video games through to completion?"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btuy6fp4Svw

Next I talk about playlists, explain why I have them, why they are a good thing to have, and where you can find mine... ie. HERE https://www.youtube.com/user/SteveBenway/playlists

Finally I talk about the "30 years ago today" series I'm doing on my BenwaysWorld channel. You can get to the playlist for that at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCJ4LxrOlAk_sDNm-FOp2Y011HXWIEzJR
