A question for all the Tech furs out there
12 years ago
General
Hey there. Thanks for taking the time to read over this little ordeal of mine
In the next couple of months (just before uni starts up for me) me and
ingeir_palar wanted to do our own game recording on either the PS3 or the Xbox360. Yknow? Just like people like Pewdiepie and all the other Youtubers! Thing is though, I've done a lot of research into the equipment we'll be needing for it. I've got the small things though: Stand alone Mic and a decent HD webcam for visual recording. The last thing to get is the actual recording device.
I've been looking around for about a month now. Trying to find the best one, or even the closest one. I've kinda narrowed the search down to three;
Elgato game capture HD, high definition game recorder
Hauppauge HD PRV 2 gaming edition capture device
Roxio game capture HD Pro
Those are the ones that look pretty good to me. In price and performance.
My question to all you tech furs. Have you ever had any first-hand experience with video game recording? And if so, what can you suggest? Or is there an easier way to record gaming without the hassle of one of these devices?
Any help will be greatly appreciated from both me and Ingeir :-D

Can't you just record it with a HDD Recorder? (Just like VHS in the old days hehe)

I have something called a dazzle which works pretty well for things like that. Mine is standard def but I do know that they sell an HD type verion.

I've never heard of them before. I did look have a look at them on amazon. Seem real good and cheap, but still worth the price. Couldn't really see a HD one though. But thanks for letting me know about these kinds

For my YouTube, to record games that would be on a Gameboy or a DS console or something like that, I use Camtasia Studio 8 which can record the screen and stuff. Some others use Fraps, but I dunno how to use that x3

Sounds pretty cool to me bro. Now are you using an emulator to play the gameboy? If so, how do you use one of them?

For the gameboy games, I'm using VisualBoy Advance. Once you downloaded a game from an emulater website of your choosing, you can customize your "Joypad" under the Options toolbar.
