hmm. well i guess that sorta sucks that someone's already done it... but even if i do record it, i'm not sure what to do. I MAY be able to record it with my digital video camera, (which i dont think is going to work) or i could record to vhs, and if i had to record to vhs, i wouldnt be able to get it on my computer.
What does everyone else do when they record themselves?
Recording with a video camera is a bad idea... it's impossible to have it perfectly aimed at the tv, recording the tv ads video noise, and you'll be picking up sounds in the room, like you swearing when things go wrong. Recording to vhs is always best if you can't capture it live.
AFAIK Peter Yang is still holding the records for completing both Contra and Super C as fast as possible (Contra in 13 minutes, Super C in 16 minutes). You can find more information about his runs and some (broken) downloadlinks here: http://omega.med.yale.edu/~pcy5/games/
