For those interested in creating randomizers, you can listen to the Making a Randomizer panel from Awesome Games Done Quick 2019 explaining the process in detail. ROMHacking.net is also a great resource with plenty of technical information and tools for hacking video games in general. Frameworks such as randomtools-js and Simple Randomizer Maker may also help for development purposes.


One of the most common and longest enduring forms of DRM, SecuROM uses a variety of methods to verify the integrity of a game, as well as prevent disc copying of the protected material. The original disc-based DRM solution is simply called "SecuROM", or sometimes SecuROM Disc Authentication, while the online activation-based version meant for digital distribution is called SecuROM Product Activation. At the launch of a game and during play SecuROM (both versions) would also monitor the system, preventing the game from running if it detects applications or tools that can be used to enable piracy, disassembly, or hacking of the game.




Silent Hill 1 PC Direct Play game Help Tournament Hack




Phil calls himself a "former pro fighting game player", having participated in many competitive fighting game tournaments nationwide during the late 1990s and throughout the 2000s. Most notably, Phil placed 4th for Super Street Fighter II Turbo in the 2005 EVO tournament, thus becoming the highest ranked American player for that game (as the the top 3 were Japanese players). He has the nickname The King of Hate from this period. Many people believe this is because he enjoys constantly hating on other people and/or video games, but Phil insists that the real reason for his nickname is because he is an outspoken person, having differing opinions that were radically different from mainstream ones, in which a lot of his opinions were subject to controversy, albeit using the infamy that many people induct upon him as a way of fueling himself.


Phil posted videos on YouTube originally just for fun from 2008 to 2010, and didn't expect it to become his full-time job at that time. He made YouTube his full-time job in late 2010, after being laid off from Helicopter Support, Inc. in Trumbull, Connecticut. However, his original YouTube channel "darksydephil" lost its AdSense partnership in late 2010; he then moved his content to blip.tv, but due to a number of users submitting complaints to the blip.tv staff regarding Phil's anti-Semitic jokes during the Dead Space 2 demo, he was banned. He got signed with Machinima in 2011. From 2011-2012, Phil was involved in stopping bills against gaming, such as SOPA. He got his contract with Machinima renegotiated in late 2012 and began making less money than he was at the time he got partnered, and he made changes to his content. He recorded his gameplay from 2008-early 2013 by pointing an HD camera at his TV screen, and around spring of 2013, Phil started to direct capture his gameplay. Phil then started recording gameplay in 1080p and 60 FPS in 2014 when he bought a new PC, replacing his other one that was built for him.


Phil was caught masturbating live on pre-stream with facecam on May 1, 2016 before he was going to stream gameplay of the Nioh Alpha demo. He claims that he didn't know that the camera was on. Ever since that pre-stream went live, he gained more viewers and subscribers; however, many YouTubers now make jokes about him masturbating, and the negativity seems to have gotten worse. Other big YouTube channels have covered this incident, such as ReviewTechUSA and DramaAlert. Phil addressed the situation directly in a pre-stream video the following day. Phil will bring up the incident every once in a while. A video where Phil bashed the game Homefront: Revolution went viral online (including on 4chan) and has over 1 million views. He also got thousands of new subscribers on his KOGaming channel.


In addition to the problems with Phil's commentary style cited above, Phil often demonstrates a very poor job of understanding the controls and mechanics of the games he plays. He sometimes will complain about the framerate in some games, or bash a game for the framerate alone for affecting his performance in playing a game. Often, when a tutorial is offered, Phil replies with "shut the fuck up" and skips it, only to repeatedly make mistakes later, and he blames the game developers for not properly explaining the mechanics. Phil constantly complains about the game not working, or game bugs/glitches, when at times the issues are his own fault, and he rarely ever admits his own faults. He often complains about button lag, his game not registering his commands, or his inputs being dropped, when there appears to be nothing wrong of the sort, and viewers joke and call it a "haunted controller." Phil claims this is his "comedic persona" and that he could be good at games if he wanted to. This directly contrast with his claims to have no gimmick and to be the "realest person" on YouTube. He has over the years contradicted himself on whether or not he is actually good at playing games. Viewers have noted that Phil needs glasses, because he often states things that he witnessed in the game that are incorrect, but he was only seen wearing a pair in 2014 and hasn't used them again.


Though Phil has been known to get extremely combative on Twitter and his forums, he also becomes very sheepish when confronted directly. With the aforementioned "Kingdom Hearts incident", his first instinct was to attempt to shut off the PlayStation 4's voice chat feature. He has done this numerous times in multiplayer games whenever he is confronted about something he has either said or done. In addition, he has insulted people in his stream chat after banning them for saying things he doesn't want to hear, reinforcing his own cowardly behaviour despite calling other people cowards.


On September 2016, Phil streamed Banjo-Kazooie, a game voted as part of the Patreon goal. He played it for 4 hours and had help from the stream chat. From that moment onwards, he never streamed it online again, and instead played the game offline, with many people finding out he was using a guide to speed through the game and know all the secrets. Some people accused Phil in the comments of parts 9-12 of the playthrough that he was using the stream chat for help. Phil went on a tirade at the beginning of part 16 of the playthrough, saying that he wasn't using the stream chat anymore after the first streaming of the game. However, Phil did receive messages from viewers who told him certain things in the game, such as using the gold feather power to defeat ghosts, an ability that Phil never used until it was mentioned to him.


In May of 2018, Phil chose to take a day off. However, before he did, he tweeted a rant about YouTubers and streamers getting early copies of State of Decay 2. He said that everyone who gets early copies are "not true gamers", "walking advertisements", and "paid shills" who only do things for attention and money and insinuated that he was vastly superior to all of them. This outraged many YouTubers, streamers, their fans, and even some gaming journalists like Ryan McAffrey. The backlash was so immense that Phil was forced to delete the tweet. The tweet in question read as follows: "Those playing State of Decay 2 a full week early are paid shills. They are walking advertisements, not true gamers, and are doing so solely for a paycheck. I'll be PAYING FOR THE GAME and playing it this Friday just like many of you, and my reactions will be legit as always." Though he did apologize for it, he later backtracked on it, claiming it was taken out of context.


Despite Phil's continued insistence that he is all about being "honest", "genuine", "real", "positive", and claiming to "play games for fun", he has never been afraid to beg for money from his viewers every chance he gets, and throughout 2020, even going as far as to employ silly little gimmicks (like how he dumps on other streamers for). He once said in response to a question asking him what they get out of giving him money along the lines of: "I get to continue doing what I love, and that is playing games and having fun." This response clearly shows that Phil only thinks about his own needs, and doesn't care about his fans' satisfaction. In addition, he continues to manage his streams in a manner scarily reminiscent of a cult leader, and demonstrating unhealthy levels of jealousy anytime another bigger, more successful content creators are mentioned to him, insisting that they are fake, hacks, or entertainers whose content is "dumbed down for dumbfucks", as he once said in 2016.


Phil said that in May of 2017, he and Leanna had broken up but said that he would not discuss the details of it. Over time, more information has been made public about what happened, with many citing Phil's video talking about her panic attack and saying that he would not take her to the hospital again if another incident like that occurred as a possible reason. In a recent Twitter post, Phil said that it was related to finances and so far has been putting the blame all on Leanna herself. A comment made by a YouTube user who claims to have spoken to Leanna said she told them that Phil would not help with chores around the house. She stated that she did all the work while he refused to help and would only play games. In some streams, when she came into the room Phil would ignore her and say "I can't hear you, I have headphones on." Many people have said that after living together for years, Phil only used Leanna as a housekeeper, and the SOK said Phil only asked her to marry him to keep her around a little longer. She had grown sick of what had become of their relationship and wanted to be with someone who actually appreciated her. Phil has also changed the story about their break-up, saying it happened before the hospital trip. Many don't believe this as it does not make sense that Phil would be angry about paying for her bill if they were no longer together. Phil has yet to give a comment on these claims. 2ff7e9595c
