Right, people. I know this has been sitting on the back burner for a long time but Show 08 will be made towards the end of November. So, now i'm going to lay down the details on how you could have your voice in the next show.

In previous DreamCast shows we wanted to have a bunch of new people in each show so everybody can have a turn. Well, i'm going to be changing that slightly for this next show.

If you're interested, read on -

It has been nearly a year since NiGHTS Journey of Dreams has been out. People have played it and probably put it to one side, not playing it as much nowadays. What we want from you is to play the game again. Not through the whole game, just play it for a bit and see how you feel about it now after all the dust has settled and formed your own opinions without anybody elses influence.

What you have to do is this -

- Record yourself saying a short piece explaining how you feel about the game now. Start the clip off by saying your name (username/real name/nickname, whatever name people address you as), where you are from and go straight into how you feel about JoD and why. e.g. "Hi, i'm Bill and i'm from London!! I think NiGHTS JoD was a bit better the second time i played it because i was able to appreciate the story more. I do think the cutscenes themselves could use more work and the voice acting needs to be a bit tighter but after playing it again i find myself being a little more pleased with the game".

- The length of your voice clips need to be between 20 to 30 seconds. Anything longer than 30 seconds needs to be trimmed down or we won't use it.

- As far as the clip itself goes, don't put any background music on the clips or we won't use them. These clips are meant to be short so that we can have a few more people have their say.

- Also, don't drag the end of the clip out too much. Don't say "bye, see you later!" or anything like that as it will be trimmed off. Just state your opinion and hit the stop button after you have finished explaining yourself.

- Anybody can send a clip in even if you have already been on a show before and the forum staff can join in too. The reason we have asked for shorter voice clips is because we wanted more people to have their say on this particular show so the more the merrier. Just keep it within the 20 to 30 second time frame.

- As far as audio formats go, mp3 or WAV are prefered.

- The recording needs to be clear enough to understand what you're saying. If it's too hissy, like to the point where we honestly can't hear you, then we won't use the clip.

- On a final note, we will try to use all the clips we get but we have right to not use a voice clip if we so choose to do so.

- Send all clips to subs@nightsintodreams.com

- The deadline for this is November 18th. Any emails containing voice clips sent after this date will be deleted.

So, yes. Get to it. And we'll see you on the show. :P

hmm... I think I'll send something in... if I can find the time to get my lazy self to doing so... one question: does mic quality matter?

I wonder if a discussion segment would be nice on the topic. Would be nice to get some people together at some point on skype to talk about this topic or something else I guess. I know it's not fun to set up, but it can be worth it. =) Regardless I'll see if I can get something in on time.

I'd play the game, but I haven't got a Wii alas. Sigh.

A long and in detailed analysis of everything over the last goodness knows how many months please! :P

I would do this but I don't own a Wii. I have played my copy using my cousin's Nintendo however. It took a lot of whining and complaining but he finally gave... I doubt he'll ever let me play again. Besides I think he let one of his friends hold his Nintendo console (saying Wii would just be lining things up for comedy) so I wouldn't be able to play it anyway. I can say this though, I've been playing a lot of NiGHTS into Dreams lately and it's kind of making me want to at least complete the story for both William and Helen even if I don't care too much for the game.

Sorry that i had to request the length of the clips to be shorter. My idea was to have more people take part without taking up too much time as there are quite a few things happening on the next show. But since we've only got a tiny handful of people who have actually sent in there clips i can up the recording time a bit.

I suppose if the people who have already entered a voice clip want to re-record their clips then they can so it's all fair and stuff. Just let me know in your email if you're changing to a newer recorded clip so i don't accidently have one person appear twice or something.

Wicked. Cheers, you lot. They have been added to the show. :)

Righty. That's the deadline done. The last day is today so i'm gonna lock this topic now. Any more clips that come in after today won't be used, sadly.

Thanks for all the contributions to the show :)
