HALF LIFE NOTES:
Black Mesa is a first-person shooter game developed and published by Crowbar Collective. It is a third-party remake of Half-Life (1998) made in the Source game engine. Originally published as a free mod in September 2012, Black Mesa was approved by Half-Life developers Valve for a commercial release; the first commercial version was published as an early-access version in May 2015, followed by a full release in March 2020 for Windows and Linux.
22 years later jeese
Crowbar Collective plans a “Definitive Edition” update with additional gameplay tweaks and improvements to the modding workshop, and it wants to hold community events for people who are interested in working with Valve’s Source engine.
The computer monitors in game are old tube monitors, lols… some are blue screen and some with like windows 95 outlook open. Haha

Welcome to Episode 19. This episode is featuring a new guest, Pezell56x, who is a fellow podcast co-host and his podcast is “Three Dads and a Console” Today we talk about what we’ve been playing, and Pez enlightens us on some Persona 5 strikers news and what he feels is wrong with the current state of EA’s NHL 2021 and the franchise as a whole.
Recent News:
Mortal Kombat… Does it include terminator and Rambo since they’re kinda canon?
Zelda 35
Questions for PEZ:
What’s the story behind your gamer tag?
How long have you been streaming on twitch?
Would you say you're more focused as a gamer or a streamer?
What games do you play?
What was the most painful thing to figure out when setting up your stream?
You tweeted saying “I've played (almost) every NHL game since NHLPA 93 on Sega Genesis. I have a lot of thoughts on the NHL series and why it feels like the franchise, as a whole, is incredible stale. Some of it has to do with HUT, some of it has to do with being EA's bastard sports game” @pezell56xgaming
Tell us about three dads and a console? What birthed it?
We are planning to do an episode about the gear we love and use to stream and podcast what is some gear you can’t live without?!
Check out "Three Dads and a Console" here:

LG OLED concept transparent screen?!
**NOTE: To help bridge the gap between the expensive OLED TVs and more affordable offerings from competitors like Samsung, Vizio, and TCL, LG has also announced a new LED TV line. QNED TVs (not quite the same as QLED due to the inclusion of LG’s nanocell technology) will feature multizone backlighting and quantum color, for better performance even in brighter spaces.
LG 4K projectors? Uses frickin laser beams...
SAMSUNG Neo QN900 8K QLED TV
SAMSUNG Solar Powered remote… charge it or use the solar cell on the back. It works with basic interior lighting.
SAMSUNG Game Bar. Samsung's new TVs continue to support the next-generation gaming features of PS5 and Xbox Series X, including 4K/120 fps input and VRR, but new for this year you can long-press on the play/pause button of the remote to call up a special status screen, dubbed Game Bar, that clearly indicates which of those features are currently active.
SONY X900H VRR + ALLM update..."XH90 will support VRR and ALLM via a future firmware update. Any articles on Sony sites that stated otherwise have been updated with the correct information," Sony said in a statement to FlatpanelsHD … I DONT BELIEVE EM… Sony did not provide a timeline for the firmware update
