RIP Justin.tv 1997-2014

Posted on August 5th, 2014 by Hitstun

UPDATE: I’m getting tired of these videos that don’t even stay online for four years. The original Vimeo video is private now, but somebody re-posted it to YouTube. Twitch got better and I stream there now. In May 2009, I started a weekly video game stream on Justin.tv. Justin.tv was just getting video game streams, […]

He went on to make some anime opening songs […]

I’ve also brought the heat to the North American version’s leaderboards with dozens of stage times in the top three. Since this game helpfully […]
