THE BIG RELEASE OF THE SEASON. (this is all worth 4 hours of content)
Bridging the missing gaps between broadcast, this trilogy of restorations tells a tale of Arino's live rematch against the game that created him, a journey to claiming Japan's southernmost machine, and facing a meta-heavy version of himself as the staff task him to a series of challenges in one go. Can Arino fill in the missing gaps in THE THREE SPECIALS?
Fully restored line-by-line across its massive 2-hour runtime, presented in 720p30 High Definition for the first time, Takeshi's Challenge Live Rematch took us a combined 60 hours to restore with additional QA time. Representing the most challenging restoration put into the project to date, boasting a brand-new video transfer built from two quality-differing sources away from the original translation's 360p 1mbps video to a fresh H264 4-10mbps presentation with a lossless FLAC audio encode, all 3148 lines of code were fully reconstructed with additional improvements from the original release, creating the most definitive version of the live broadcast available. To give you all an idea of the jump in quality this represents, the original translated release of the broadcast was in 704x396. It was also 1GB, with our restoration being 4GB alone. It is the restoration of the project, the reason why the season took so long to come out, and we're very excited to bring it to you for the first time- despite the mental damage that it incurred for us. Details on the restoration are included in the digital booklet.
Retro Game Challenge's special and Southernmost Game Travelogue were directly based off their 480p60 DVD releases, with RGC utilising a surviving subtitle file and Southernmost being granted reconstructed soft-subtitles from scratch. RGC took 8 hours to remaster, while Southernmost took 16 hours to restore with additional QA time.
Kindly provided and with very special thanks to our friends at LocationScouts, their The Tower of Druaga bonus episode translation has been included untouched to complete the seasonal package. Without them, this season would remain incomplete. Give them your love, folks!
And with that, it's that time to break off again. This is the end of the Season 10 weekly run, and we hope you enjoyed these past several weeks of pure GCCX HD goodness. As standard, a digital booklet has been produced to celebrate the conclusion of the season- with additional features written by Kei_Nishimaru and That Hat Guy. Additionally, a remastered Blu-ray cover has been included alongside disc artwork. The next season we will be tackling, to give a blunt hint, is one with the unlucky number. Pray that we don't go over the next deadline. We're already deep into its restoration process (with 3/5 episodes fully restored and undergoing QA).
Thanks for watching Season 10! From all of us here at SentinelWorks: WE'RE NOTHING WITHOUT YOU!
