LGR - Christmas Oddware of sorts

https://youtu.be/yAY_GFwmVowGreetings! For the second Christmas 2022 video it's an Oddware episode! Or something resembling it. More like the concept loosely interpreted through a clone. It's definitely an odd assortment of holiday items, that much is certain.Hope you enjoy, and I plan to ha...

LGR Unboxing of Donations - November 2022

https://youtu.be/IMYIPLtwPIsWow it's been over half a year since I did one of these. Since before I moved!And yes, there was a broken version of this that briefly went up earlier. It had audio/video issues so I had to edit and re-upload. Should be good once YT is done processing the new file :)T...

LGR Thrifts - Episode 49

https://youtu.be/FlCieLsUqXIGreetings, folks! So Halloween happened. And I spent it thrifting!

But I did also do a good chunk of thrifting and editi...

LGR Oddware - Plusdeck 2c

https://youtu.be/GaQMMef2sDkFresh Oddware! This time it's the BTO Plusdeck, a cassette player that fits into a 5.25" drive bay. It's controlled through the serial port and Windows 98 and it's... actually kind of awesome, ha.I've been intending to cover this thing for years now an...

LGR - The Gateway Astro PC

https://youtu.be/8xcFhoYoFXEGreetings, folks! Time for another forgotten relic of the late 90s on LGR. This one is all about the elusive Gateway Astro, a nifty little system from 1999 that was part of the whole post-iMac resurgence in all-in-one computer designs. The thing is even more fascinating t...

LGR - Strangest Computer Designs of the 2010s

https://youtu.be/Tl7K14vdGJgWell then! It sure has been a long time since I've done one of these list videos. Seems the last one was back in 2017. Jeez.So yep, after being reminded about this series of videos a few times recently, I felt inspired to finally make this as a simpler video for this ...

LGR - Early Edit of VCF Midwest 2022

https://youtu.be/bICt3WRH4BsEDIT: IT'S DONE.So this isn't done yet. Despite working on it daily for 8 days, it's currently about 98% there! But at this point I've been looking at all this footage for long enough that I needed to take a step back and take in the whole thing as a whole...

LGR - eMachines eTower 566

https://youtu.be/qQo0yOqOb_4I'm back from the trip! As of Friday I am home again from the 12-hour-long drive back and forth to the VCF Midwest show, and after a solid day mostly spent sleeping from sheer exhaustion I started working on this video to try and get back into the groove of things.Thi...

LGR - 5.25" Drive Bay Speaker System

https://youtu.be/cZ_CEJMOPQwGreetings, all! I'm currently on the way to exhibit at the VCF Midwest show in Illinois and, naturally, prepwork for that took up most of my time this past week. But I still wanted to get a quickly-made video out and this bit of silliness is what resulted.Just taking ...

LGR - Three Weird Mice #4: Viagra, Bullets, & The 4th Dimension

https://youtu.be/03k98-TphHsBack again with another weird mouse video! And of course the selection is a bunch of nonsense, from a Pfizer product, to a dual-wheeled '4D' mouse, to a piece of ammunition that very much requires plugging in. Downright silliness.As usual with these, it's a bi...

LGR - The MiSTercade

https://youtu.be/CJBBfxX-E4cIt is once again time for some coverage of an exciting newish product in the retro scene: the MiSTercade. An excellent drop-in hardware emulation solution for JAMMA arcade machines!Back when I got my Raiden II cabinet, I mentioned that I planned on taking a look at this o...

LGR Oddware - Reality Fusion GameCam

https://youtu.be/VBoaPeXoMf4 Greetings folks, it's time for more Oddware! It's the first one filmed completely at the new place so there are some teething issues, mostly regarding audio that I'm still sorting out since I'm setting up several recording areas at the same time and none ...

LGR Wrap Up - July '22

https://youtu.be/UZRHxKeiEYULemme know if y'all can use an audio-only version of this! I'm not exactly sure well how that works though, as the only option I see is to make "audio only" posts on Patreon app, which doesn't seem ideal.

LGR - The Sims 4 High School Years Review

https://youtu.be/aym80GTi6LsGreetings, y'all! And wow, this is my first time covering a Sims pack in over a year... admittedly kinda weird to return to it. The time away certainly helped though as I conclude this reviewing experience significantly less irritable compared to how I felt in 2021, h...

LGR - Victor V-Saturn & the Fenrir ODE [UPDATED!]

UPDATE: After re-watching the video a few times I became increasingly dissatisfied with the last 3/4 of the video. Far too much echo in that room that made it hard to understand me, plus I was rambling a bit more than I would like and didn't have my thoughts fully formed. So I redid that whole s...

LGR - 21" ViewSonic G220fb

https://youtu.be/ySQzXpYETXcGreetings, all! I got this one finished up today just in time for getting posted tomorrow, so here's a slightly early upload for you.

LGR - Asus Lamborghini VX2S

https://youtu.be/v7EBULRaOnAPhew, I was actually able to get this one done this week! Just barely! Finished the render late this morning and went ahead and made it public, since it's already Friday and I'm about to leave again for another weekend trip. No conventions this time, just seeing s...

LGR - Dictaphone 1680 Calculator from 1971

https://youtu.be/Sq_GFKpPhnYGreetings, all! I've got a bit of a different LGR Thing this week, all about an early portable electronic calculator that I find wildly appealing both inside and out.And I was really hoping it would be fully working, or I would be able to repair it, but alas! It's...

LGR - Exploring Two Late 80s Packard Bells

https://youtu.be/su_n2u2pERoPackard Bell! It's a company name that always instills happiness in my soul, despite my brain knowing they weren't... eh y'know. Always quality.Whatever! I enjoy them and I'm always tempted by machines I've never used before. So I imported some nifty l...

LGR Wrap Up - May 2022

Here's your patron-exclusive Wrap Up video covering LGR in the month of May! Coming from outside this time, ooh nature and things.https://youtu.be/UfvVDQGBgbkAnd go figure, I totally forgot to ask for questions at the end. So yeah, it's the same deal this month: no exact topic, just leave an...

LGR - Unboxing a 1982 Answering Machine

https://youtu.be/ecTtL-z-BTkSo this is different! I've had this sealed Record-a-Call 675 answering machine for a while, if nothing else due to its woodgrain and brushed metal aesthetic that I really dig. And you can't beat new old stock, right? But I've never really had much reason to do...

LGR Thrifts - Episode 48

https://youtu.be/e8_PuZmwH4kThrifting! Finally! Sure has been a while, good grief. Slow goings at nearby thrift stores lately, but while sorting through my existing footage this week I decided I had enough content to edit down into a new episode in-between packing and unpacking at the new house.And ...
