Gamertag to Face + Dark Souls Video Update (Kinda)

On 05/14/2013 at 07:21 AM by Chris Yarger

All the cool kids are doing this, so I thought I’d jump the band wagon as well! I suppose this is a nice way to not only get my pretty mug-shots out to you all, but I also don’t think I ever really introduced myself here at Pixlbit either.

As some of you can tell, this is my profile pic.
I was extremely drunk, but as luck would have it, I take nice drunken pictures.
This was actually at a college birthday party of mine back in… 2007? Maybe 2008?
Anyway, this happened right after we had a water-fight in an apartment and decided to jump into a pool whenever it was 40 degrees outside. Not our best decision, but all drunken decisions seem good at some point throughout the night. Regardless though, it was a good time!

This is what I normally look like; shaggy hair with a homeless man’s beard. I’ve been clean shaven though ever since the Penguins entered the playoffs this season. For some reason, they only win whenever I shave and according to the Bud Light Superstition Commercials; it’s not weird if it works!

This is a pic of the Wife (Courtney) and me. I don’t remember where this was taken exactly (Pittsburgh Zoo perhaps?), but we look pretty sexy so I thought I’d post it lol. We’ve been married for nearly 4 years now!

And here is a picture of my son (Cooper, or Coopa as we call him) cuddling up with our cat Brees. He’s normally wrestling with the cat and trying to body-slam her, but lately he’s been cuddling the hell out of the cat. I thought it was a cute pic!

And that’s me and my family!

Dark Souls Videos:

Yeah, I’ve been slacking. BUT, to be honest with you all.. I’ve been switching over PC’s and it has taken a little longer than I had initially expected. I should have a new video for you all tomorrow though! I know we have at least 2, maybe 3 videos queued up to edit and upload. So stay patient and I’ll get them to you all as soon as I possibly can!

Yeah, it must be nice to be young and flexible! lol

And yeah, 4 years now. It doesn't feel like it though. Time flies when you're having fun though!

Nice beard Chris. What happened to you on facebook? Too much bullcrap on there?

Work has been checking people's FB's so I deleted mine temporarily until it all blows over. I guess someone posted something and a co-worker saw it, now the company is combing through everyone's online profile or some crap so I got rid of it for now. I should be back as soon as this all blows over though.

Ha ha your son does like my son does with our dog head down, lol Great looking family you got there, in most cases the pic never fits the name but in your case i was right on lol your exactly like i pictured you but of course your profile pic probably had alot to do with it, so im waiting on that next vid,and by the way im still at Zens Fortress that place is a nightmare i got all the way to the Giants ant got my ass handed to me lol.

No worries Lee! I got the video's queued up and ready to be edited! There were a few hiccups with the PC swap, but everything has been cleared up so I should be able to pump them out pretty quickly!

Great pics of you and your family there. You do take good drunken photos! You look halfway sober in that one. I think you are one of those guys who can do facial hair well. I am definitely NOT. It makes me look like an insane vagrant with his mad on! That sucks about your work spying on your FB page. I have heard of people getting fired for stuff they posted on Facebook that was critical of their bosses. Lighten up people!

05/14/2013 at 02:24 PM

Yeah, I wasn't critical of my boss or anything (He's a somewhat ok guy), I just don't need them spying on me and what I do!

And I was really drunk in that pic.. Drunk enough to jump into a pool when it was near freezing.

Your son looks like he's doing some sort of anatomically impossible break dance spin on that cushion. lol. That's pure swag!

I'll probably take a few newer pictures of myself assuming I can get my digital camera to actually work.

I had a few pics on 1up but they were not the greatest.

Coopa has moves like Jagger! lol

And post up!! It's what all us cool kids are doing nowadays!

I know that the guys from Retronauts started up a twitch.tv channel where they were live streaming old games recently. Maybe it's easier to livestream than to edit all the time. I'm not sure how it all works, just a suggestion.

I was debating on switching to Twitchtv, but I really don't mind editing at all. All it really involves is syncing the gameplay video with the commentary audio. I was just having troubles with the PC swap-out and converting my new PC from a 32x to a 64x system. Luckily I had a lot of help from Randell (Aka, Bandit) so it finally came together after a couple of weeks! New video is done now actually, I just need to upload it and check it for 'problems' then it'll be live!

Nice family you got there. Hopefully you haven't got the little guy too hooked on video games... or maybe that wouldn't be too bad!

05/16/2013 at 06:22 AM

He actually carries a controller around all the time with him (PS3 or 360, he's not picky lol), but he doesn't quite understand the concept of what they do yet. But that'll come in time... lol

What's this? A beard challenge? i know I can get my beard as bad as yours! Wish I could post pics of my wife on here. The only one she's allowed was her cosplay pics from my last year's halloween blog.
