♥ A Games Freezer Tribute To Harold Ramis ♥ #RetroGaming #GamersUnite #RIPHaroldRamis

The Games Freezer Has Been Saddened By The Death Of Harold Ramis.

 

Harold was best known for his immense comedy acting, directing and writing ability.

 

For us at Games Freezer he was the first 

"Geek Super Hero"

 

We adore the Ghostbusters Films and his role as Egon Spengler has stuck with us to this day.

 

Naturally when we were kids, after watching the Ghostbusters Movie we all wanted to be a Ghost Buster with our very own Proton Packs.

 
Many a hosepipe was attached to a rucksack in order to try and create our very own Proton Packs along with a shoebox attached to a piece of string to create our Ghost Trap (and that was just last week!) 

As you can imagine, When the Ghostbusters games hit video games shelves across every system we were always extremely excited about busting ghosts on our TV screens! 

Not many Ghostbusters games actually did the film justice but there were definitely some highlights over the years.
 
As a tribute to Harold Ramis we have decided to give you a timeline of all the Ghostbusters Video Games Released on every system ever…..

We'd like to think that Harold played videogames and in particular we'd like to think that he played at least one of the Ghostbusters Games released over the years….

So, Harold, this is for you……………..

OTON X IN GAMES FREEZER COLOURS

Just Imagine A Video Games Console That Creates It's Own Original Games........

 

Sounds a bit sci fi doesn't it?

 

Well maybe it's not as far fetched as you might first think!

It's February 25, 2014 and Today, the EnGeniux OTON X autonomous
video games console is set to open beta signup to early adopters and developers.

The OTON X is billed by EnGeniux as the first autonomous game console that's ever been prepared for the Market....

The almost futuristic aspect of this gorgeous looking console is that the
OTON self-creates games, without any human input......

How Is That Possible We Hear You Cry!

The system creates games using an extremely clever custom algorithm with preset design parameters and a sprite database to create custom game environments.

During the beta testing, the project will offer crowdfunded OTON X (developer
units) to early adopters and developers. 

Systems will cost $99 for early bird units and $139 for standard units. 

 

Over one thousand users have signed up for  

OTON BETA Testing,
with the list growing daily. 

OTON X creator and Project Manager Derrick Samuels said

“We’re excited to let gamers, developers and media interact with the OTON UI because of its unique design layout,  

The goal of the beta is to gain feedback on the user interface and to move forward with adding more features."

Who Are The Dudes Behind This Ground Breaking Piece Of Game Changing Kit?

The EnGeniux team has ten years of game and manufacturing experience......

Between 2008 and 2010, they shipped a limited quantity of their first-
run console system. 

Creator and inventor, Derrick Samuels, has worked and developed several
new trends in tech and practical products. 

His initial system in 2004 was the first to converge a biometrics, PC, game console, DVR and media device into one unit. 

That same unit was also the first system to provide the possibility of
content powered by the Akimbo Platform and digital distribution.

During the 2007 CES show he demonstrated voice recognition software to
control the game console interface. 

In 2008 his first system shipped with Linux as a working OS for a start-up game console company. 

In 2009 he introduced cloud storage to the console before other console systems
considered the format. 

In 2010 his company was the first in the market to truly see and test the potential of Android as a gaming platform for a game console. 

The 2008 units are still in use, and his company continues to provide
annual customer support to keep these units working for customers.
