Clips of Michael Jackson dancing in his game ‘Moonwalker’. The music to this video is Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ by Michael Jackson. I made this video as a sort of tribute to the legendary singer who died this week at the age of 50.

His music will outlive him in history, and he will always be remembered forever as the king of pop. The impact he had as an entertainer was enormous and he will always have a place in the minds and hearts of his fans.

The DYG previews will be made by me i will always make a DYG preview of Demos and betas that i play ya know cause theres a chance i might review these games eventually so hope you enjoy teh first edition .

The Anno games are pretty unique due to their large focus on Trade and relationships between neighbors .

The thing about this newest installment is that its not only good looking but the city evolves into something beautiful the more you play and evolve your city .
The game manages to keep a rather deep …i don’t know the word but lets just say that for everything that needs to be produced like tools or clothes you need other things such as for tools iron and for iron you need iron ore and coal .

Also I learned that one can make clothes and ropes out of….weed…although I do have to wonder what those clothes makers are doing down there in their huts .

The game has a rather beautiful graphics and surprisingly enough run great on my PC , although if you have a lower end PC you might need to upgrade . Same can be said for the soundtrack which fits the game perfectly …cause most of the games I review or preview here have the games original soundtrack so you judge while your hearing it through my video preview.
Unlike the Settlers in the Anno games your town grows and advances in social status the , the more you please your people the more they will grow…although you do have to watch for what they need since each thing they need has a sub need as I call it and that’s things like…for example food when your settlers are still peasants they will be happy with just plain fish but once they advance towards citizens they want fish and spice to eat….so spicy fish ?.

Some things like prestige I believe it was called are required for certain things such as ….buying improvements for your ship or spice plants to plant , prestige is gained by trading and completing quests depending on your relationship status with say a exotic nation , until you are in good relations with them they wont let you build their type of buildings in the more desert islands .

None of the maps in anno are particularity based on land each mission or map you choose is made with the thought of trading with ships so all settlements are always on islands…which is kinda weird and makes me think that the world is partially flooded .
The games story is somewhat simple from what I noticed in the Demo the emperor is sick and apparently has declared war on the Orient …there’s also a quite sickly looking character that just screams traitor .

The game isnt for those who want fast paced action when they want to conquer places since the games economy is reliant on market carts to push the resources to where they should go…so it can get quite boring while you wait for those 20 ropes are ready so you can make that brand new small trading ship .

Making a city isn’t the only thing you can be creative with in this city building game , you can also be a bit creative with the ports as well by not only building cranes to repair your ships you can also build extensions of the docks and make small warehouses to house more and more stuff for you to sell.
There’s also defense towers although I did not have a way to test them yet heh.

So far the demo is entertaining although the 1 hour restriction is kinda dumb…its still fun to experiment with your future early stage city building design’s

Ill probably play and review this game so stay tuned for that at …some point

Hello everyone today review is a bit longer since i try to make my reviews as short as possible but i made this one as best as i could since i really like it and in celebration of the upcoming sequel Overlord 2…now with 100 % more evil , minions , mistresses and fluffy animals……to kill.

You can shape shift , you can read other peoples minds by absorbing them and becoming them , YOU are Alex Mercer one of the most badass of super heroes , this game is essentially 40 % spiderman web of shadows , 40% Infamous , 10% Left 4 Dead and 10 % God of war….but heres a thought they really should have called it TENTACLE RAPE THE GAME

This video shows my HUGE city Metropolis at night.

I drew inspiration from the book Under Milkwood by Dylan Thomas. This book describes a man’s journey, his experiences and what he sees when he makes his way into to a town during the night. The book, which was in fact a script written for a play, uses powerful imagery and is very inspirational.

The sound for my video comes from the Volkswagen Golf Night Driving Advert. The advert used passages from Under the Milkwood mixed with music from Cliff Matinez- Don’t Blow It and at the end another song First Sleep was also mixed in there.

As with all my Sim City 4 videos, I did not use any cheats or money boxes. NAM was used to correct the bugs associated with transit.

Look forward to hearing your feedback

An online battle between me and LadyofRome. We decided to have a barbarian battle, so Lady chose Britannia and I went the Gauls. Early in the game Lady charged my generals bodyguard with her mercenary cavalry and killed my general. The battle ends when I rout Lady’s cavalry and surround her army subsequently putting it into a mass rout.

The game was played for a bit of fun.

The following is an update. I am no longer doing the pokemon emerald run. I would like suggestions for rnthroughs. doesn’t have to be the things I suggested. I lost soooo much Pokemon emerald footage that I don’t want to do it again. I am open to any ideas and please to do give them.

Alright everyone.  This game was just released on June 1st and I gave it my all.  My review is with mixed opinions.  Check it out!

This is a video showing my Sim City ‘Jackson Town’. It is a small, agricultural town situated on the outskirts of my main Sim City Region. I wanted to try and present it as sort of a outback western american village- old Texas/Nashville sort of feel.
Even though the town is small, it is probably my favourite city in the region.

The song is called ‘Jackson’ by Johnny Cash and June Carter. ‘Jackson’ is a song about a couple’s relationship losing it’s spark and their aim to travel to Jackson Town to furfil their hopes and ambitions. Perhaps my city is something Johnny Cash may have had in mind? Who knows.

‘Jackson’ is also a live version sung by the duo at San Quentin Prison. The album remains to be one of my favourites also. Highly recommened!

As with all my Sim City 4 videos, I did not use any cheats or money boxes. NAM was used to correct the bugs associated with transit.

Hello everybody today i’m reviewing a game based of a little old movie called The Godfather 2 the worst part of those movies is the fact that the music gets stuck in your head very easily….but now lets proceed to blow stuff up shall we ?

Finally, the voting period is over for the Men of War Video Contest and the data collected by the poll system have been analyzed by the Dateyourgame’s Elite Datamining Squad! It has clearly been a heated voting process.

We would like to thank and compliment all the participants who created videos for this contest and congratulate the six finalists who were chosen by a jury from Dateyourgame and Digitalminsoft and will earned a participation prize!

We were agreeably surprised by the number of participants. Some finalists have clearly been able to mobilize people to vote for their video, which is exactly the kind enthusiasm and community participation we were looking for! We wanted you to share your passion for Men of War with the most people possible and we think that this goal has been reached!

Also by using an open voting process we had two objectives:

• To chose the Grand Prize Winner, who will receive a Men Of War copy signed by members of the Men Of War Development team.
• To give one copy of MoW to two registered Dateyourgame members who voted.

To do so we tried to use the most democratic process by allowing anybody to vote. It was then possible to participants to use their social network to promote their videos and increase their chance of winning the contest.

By doing so we knowingly exposed the voting process to some sort of abuses. To reassure the finalists, the voting system we used has known vulnerabilities easy to exploit that we were aware of. We were hoping that all the participants would play by the rules, but as some have noticed, it was not the case. Does these behaviors affected the end results. The answer is: NO.

Since we were expecting that kind of situation from the start, we were able to detect fraud by allowing the behavior during the voting process. Like an IT strategist said: “Turn a Security Weakness into Security Enhancement”. In clear, the announced results were cleaned of all the invalid votes. The following table includes the results for Registered members and Guest users.

You will notice that DJ Szopen had obviously a quite effective strategy to bring Guest users. But it wasn’t enough to compensate for amount of appreciation the IIIYURYIII’s video earned when Registered members and Guest Users are considered all together.

We declare IIIYURYIII the Winner of the Men of War Fan Made Videos Contest and you can see why by watching his video!

Thanks again to all of you who participate by creating videos or by voting.

EA has announced Crysis 2. The interesting part of the announcement is that it will be released for PC, but also for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.

Since the main concern about Crysis is always the system requirements, the Dateyourgame team predicts that if have a Xbox 360 or a PS 3, it will run great! Sadly, we have no information about the amount of lags the most powerful computers currently available will generate …
