Welcome to another HPAW episode, this week we have two games, Katamari Damacy amd Noby Noby Boy. Both are crazy games from Bandai Namco so try not to make too much sense of this episode.

Quality is kinda low on the Katamari section (upscaling sucks) but the Noby Noby Boy section looks amazing. In addition I was really sick for the filming of this episode so sorry about any disruptions caused by that.

Hello and welcome to another special HPAW project on one of my favorite games F.E.A.R. Just like the FEAR M.E. project, FEAR M.E. First will be a start to finish play through of the original game FEAR. I hope to show the differences between FEAR1 and FEAR2 and once and for all decide which game is superior.

UPDATE: The “Climax” chapter is now available. The FEAR M.E. project has been completed.

Hello and welcome to a special HPAW project. As some of you know I (Mempf for you new people) am a huge F.E.A.R. fan (enough to use the .’s most of the time apparently). And although I was initially a little disappointed with F.E.A.R. 2, the more I think about it it really is a fantastic game.

So what is FEAR M.E.? It is a marathon of sorts. Not of our traditional kind though. For F.E.A.R. 2 a group of people would ruin the mood and immersion the game so well creates. I will however be using the HPAW microphone to capture my feedback and comments of the story alone with other things.

I do plan to play through the whole game (Monolith I promise this will only make more sales!) however my time frame for completing this is currently unknown. Oh and FEAR M.E. means FEAR the Mempf Experience so please enjoy.

Two episodes released on schedule in a row? No way!

That’s right we are back with our second episode of 2009 and the second episode with our new cast. We have a full cast of Mempf, Teclis and Biske with a guest and possible future cast member Kaisuke. So please join us as we dive into the “story” of Left 4 Dead.

I am trying out new audio mixer settings. The audio level did turn out a little low but much of the background noise and clipping should be gone now. Please provide feedback on the changes. Thanks

UPDATE: Marathon now fully uploaded and available. YouTube is having problems with Parts 7-9, downloading the parts instead if you normally wait for YouTube. If you need to ask for help please go to the forums or email me (admin at hpaw dot net). Bittorrent version now available.

Hello and welcome to the first official project of 2009, the Fable 2 Marathon. Joining the full cast this time we have special guests FSR Ghost and none other than Dark Elf.

I am proud to announce that this marathon will be available in HPAW’s new HD format.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Thats right people the return of the unofficial episode, this time in the form of the final HD test.

Teclis and Biske join me (Mempf) as we play online matchmaking followed by the just voted game of the year Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.

This test’s goal is to simulate an actual HPAW episode. We know not everyone wants the HD version so the old format (which can be put straight onto any iPod/iPhone and most other devices) will remain but look even better than before. And please people do not try to stream the episodes in a quicktime player in your browser. If this occurs please instead right click on the download link and choose save as.

Hope you enjoy.
