I have an unusual fascination by movie-tie in games and how they're created. I intend to celebrate them all. I play on real hardware with real discs, none of that emulation stuff (great for preservation though). https://www.youtube.com/@TopazSanvich

I'm looking forward to cleaning Blade II in particular. I want to see if I can salvage the ratings sticker on it, since I've not really tried anything like that before. My hopes are not high but I'll give it a crack nonetheless.

It's been a hot minute since I shared new purchases for my collections. It's even been a long while since I grabbed this many at once. But this is the result of yesterday's little shopping spree.

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005) PS2 #1 | 20th Anniversary YouTube video by Topaz Sanvich

You can set a reminder at the link below youtube.com/live/u7eLa7I...

Today's stream has been postponed to Thursday as I am not feeling well enough to be good company :(

The upside is that Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe is on the shorter side of games, so we might be able to smash it out in one next time.

It's currently storming in my area, and although briefly I did lose power. So in the interest of stability tonight's stream of Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie (2005) is postponed to next week instead:

So for now I'm putting a pin in Γ†on Flux until I source a new (hopefully working) disc. But I'll be back streaming tomorrow for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

So about that....

Turns out my disc is either damaged or faulty as it freezes when trying to load a new section of a level. I hoped it was just going to be the first level, so I used a cheat to unlock all the levels so we could skip forward. But it's happened for the others too...

Γ†on Flux (2005) PS2 #1 | 20th Anniversary YouTube video by Topaz Sanvich

Well it's time to celebrate a 20th anniversary with a livestream. We have 4 anniversaries left to celebrate this year all [roughly] at the same time, We had a poll on which one to start with and the winner was Γ†on Flux.

The results are in! We'll be checking out Γ†on Flux first, which I'm keen to check out as I've never played or seen footage of the game before. (I have vague recollections of the movie and series it's based on)

Tune into the stream tomorrow (19/11/2025 @ 5pm GMT+10): www.youtube.com/live/WO3DMcO...

I'm quite a bit late on getting this one out, but better late than never??? I've been fiddling with some editing that will hopefully make the cleaning videos more interesting. Let me know what you think.

Poll from Topaz Sanvich - YouTube Which 20th Anniversary should we celebrate first?

So I kind of forgot that Bluesky doesn't have polls. So I guess I'll try this awkward link to the Youtube poll.

We have four options for our next 20th Anniversary to celebrate, vote for which one you want to see first!

It's not all bad news though, I'll put out a poll on which game to stream for next week as we'll have four 20th anniversaries to choose from. It'll also give me a chance to work through some of my backlog of editing stuff.

I had planned to stream The Matrix: Path of Neo this week, but my game freezes before it can load the main menu. Though my copy of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005) works and shares its 20th anniversary with Path of Neo. However I'm not feeling well, so I won't be streaming this week...

In a few minutes I'll be going live over on Youtube to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of 007: From Russia with Love. Considering I almost didn't stop playing it when I was making sure my disc was working, I think I'm going to really vibe with this one.

The first stream got blocked everywhere because the game includes clips from the film itself, and the copyright gods HATE Chicken Little apparently. I'll try to use the editing tools on Youtube to obscure those clips. Failing that I'll stitch the streams together into a video with the clips removed.

So we didn't quite get to finish Chicken Little last stream, so the stream tonight will be a short one as we get through the last few levels and see what else we might be able to unlock. We'll also be starting it a bit later at 6:30pm (GMT+10).
