Unfortunately, Google Video posted recently that they're shutting down uploads to Google Video.
This is bad for me because I host my videos there and there really aren't many other good places for game runs. I'm looking into other places, but it's difficult to find something suitable.
You can help, actually, if you know of a good video hosting site.
My needs in a video site are as follows:
- Allows game videos (many sites don't)
- Maximum file size is at least 500 megs.
- Maximum video length is at least an hour
I would also prefer it to be somewhat well-known and not a total pain to use.
So far, the one I'm most considering is Veoh. They don't limit the size or length, and video game movies are allowed, but there's a catch - you have to install a web player in order to watch movies that exceed 30 minutes.

NES Metal Storm

And we're back to platformers. This is a pretty short game, but there's a number of interesting things about it. The graphics are quite good for NES (and GV didn't really butcher them), and it has an interesting gravity flipping mechanic that adds a bit more puzzle into what would otherwise be a straightforward action game.
This is a game most people probably haven't heard of, but it's a short video, so you can watch it and get some idea what this game is all about.

I wanted to do something not a platformer to break it up, but it's hard choosing something that'll be interesting to watch (and also fast to learn how to do, I've been a bit busy lately). Eventually I came up with this.
You could argue that I don't actually "beat" this game, but it never ends, past this point it would simply repeat forever.
Oh, and I'm the pink car, in case you're confused.

This is a game I've been attempting every now and then for a while, which explains the somewhat unusual timing of this upload. I almost always lose all of my Clubs on the last stage of World 7 and have to restart my run (the boss of World 7 is very hard without one), this was one time where everything actually went smoothly.
This is actually the first time I've totally beaten the game, so I was just winging it for the last couple levels.

Here I've listed a handful of games I've considered doing runs for. If you have a particular preference for one of these games, you can vote for it here.
There's no guarantee that a game that gets a lot of votes would get done right away, but it might influence me when picking the next game to do.
Should I switch to using Youtube?
Player Info:

- Tero
- I'm just a guy who plays far too many video games. I own an Intellivision, NES, SNES, N64, Playstation, Playstation 2, Gamecube, Dreamcast, Wii, Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Gameboy Advance, DS, and PSP, as well as far more games than I could count.
I started doing these game runs both as a way to show off and to challenge myself. Mostly the former, though.
What Else is On:
Gaming Websites
GameFAQsThis is basically the number one resource for gamers. Has basically all the information about games you could ever want, and one of the biggest gaming communities out there.
Other Websites
Google VideoThese fine folks host my videos. Though the quality isn't the best, this is a great site if you have long videos to upload since you don't have to break them up.
Comic Genesis
This is a cartooning community for amateur cartoonists, though a lot of the work there rivals what you'd see in print in terms of quality. A lot of my friends have comics here.
