@mage have you seen the amount of footage that OTT actually put out when they attend conventions, have companies in to preview and update us about products etc.  All on video.  I actually think it is rather insulting to say that photos, articles and other information “trickles” out at conventions and events for our precious games.  This is clearly wrong when you alone see the hours of footage that BOW have put out this year from UKGE and Salute alone and then you have the audacity to say “A video would be nice…”.  OTT aren’t the only website/media that cover Salute and other UK conventions, plenty of real time Youtube, Facebook, Twitter content from these events as well.

OTT alone spent about 6 days in Birmingham at UKGE, travelling over, asking people from the community to volunteer to help.  They live streamed on Twitch for 3 days interviewing loads of different companies as the official media partners of UKGE.  There is actually so much footage from UKGE, I haven’t been able to watch it all.  Even today there is hours of footage from the FOW/Gale Force 9 open day in England – Seminars, interviews etc, and even OTT were giving away free tickets to the event if you made an FOW purchase on their website last weekend (I declined as I couldn’t go to Nottingham) but Ben and Justin did a great job covering it.  We are getting an Alien game from a competent company…Hurrah!!!!!!!!!!!!

In July OTT are going to be at Historicon (sp?), flying two members to the USA to record and report from that event.  They have never been to this event and want to bring the experience to people who can’t be there. I bet there will be videos.  The news and coverage we get on this site, given the resources OTT have, is unbelievable.  People are thanking them for attending these events and providing the coverage because they can’t attend.  They can’t film in GW as they won’t let them, and all the bootcamps at BOW have loads of video footage and they are now providing digital tickets so people who can’t afford to be at these events.  The last Bootcamp (FOW) they ran had hours of video – interviews, previews, unboxings, a live stream from New Zealand but, hey, a video would be nice…
