Today's Notes 12/12/20

Good afternoon everybody,

On this day in 1915, Francis Albert Sinatra, better known to us all as Frank was born in Hoboken, New Jersey. Without question, he is one of the most iconic performers of all time, Sinatra was star both as a singer and an actor, and tonight over on twitch.tv/fredcasden, I'll be doing a stream focused on songs perform by The Chairman as well as many of his contemporaries. We might even try and see if there are songs Sinatra did that were originally done by other performers as well. This is gonna be a lot of fun I bet.

Of course I did Fitness Boxing session today, solid work out, good way to get the joints moving and the blood pumping... and then I saw Fitness Boxing 2: Rhythm and Music arrived, and needless to say I started setting it up. Yes I did make sure to get the free No Mercy DLC for it straight away. Now here's what I certainly found out, Lin is not the default trainer, it's Janice... but Lin is still in the game as soon as I could i made her my default. Only the data of height and weight carries over from the first game, which means my current streak of 159 days of doing the original Fitness Boxing is not recognized in Fitness Boxing 2, and I'm guessing this is because Fitness Boxing 2 has a much different set up as it include a target weight goal set by the player, different heads up display and other things. So if I want to continue my streak in the original, I have to keep at it, and do Fitness Boxing 2 in addition to it. We'll see how long that lasts lol.

Last night's stream saw the start of a new 'series', where I'll be playing ESPN Baseball 2K4 on the Playstation 2, the goal is to play all 162 games of the 2004 season as the Philadelphia Phillies, a team that had Marlon Byrd, Jimmy Rollins, Bobby Abreu, Jim Thome, Pat Burrel, Mike Liberthal, Placido Polanco and David Bell as the every day line up at the start of the season, with the rotation including Kevin Millwood, Randy Wolf, Brett Myers, Eric Milton and Vicente Padilla. So far, I'm 2-4, playing against the Pittsburgh Pirates and Florida Marlins... which meant last night's stream ran close to six hours. I'm thinking we'll try and do only one series in a stream, depending on what day of the week this ends up being regularly featured on. Then again we're losing Twitch Sings on January 1, which basically frees up Saturdays to be the perfect day for long broadcasts!

As far as thing on Animal Crossing are going, well looks like a new resident will be arriving on my Island tomorrow, wonder who it'll end up being! 

Anyway, that'll just about do it for today's notes! Catch ya later!




Video Commentary: Celebrity Deathmatch The Game

Recently on one of Twitch Streams I played Celebrity Deathmatch: The Game, which is based on the MTV show of the same name, and this is just a video commentary on it, a review if you will.



Overwatch 2 and other notes

We were joined by PandaSweet for many matches in Overwatch this evening, and I branched out a little playing as a wider variety of character...
