Only one chaos emerald though.

GnomeSlice

@RonanForman Which Sonic?

The first?

Ronan Forman

yeah.

GnomeSlice

Ah, never did manage to finish that one, since you had to do it all in one sitting.

Nice.

Ronan Forman

@GnomeSlice Oh I have heard that one.

@GnomeSlice Save states.

GnomeSlice

@RonanForman Eh, I play it on SEGA Genesis.

You kids and your damn emulators.

Ronan Forman

13:01

@GnomeSlice Mine no longer works.

GnomeSlice

(I'm only 20)

Ronan Forman

Well it doesn't work with any TVs I own.

GnomeSlice

@RonanForman My dad has got like eight, maybe we could send you one.

Ronan Forman

@GnomeSlice No point really.

GnomeSlice

I don't think he'd want to ship it overseas either.

Ronan Forman

13:03

What other megadrive games are there?

GnomeSlice

Megadrive? I dunno, I thought we were talking about the Genesis.

Ronan Forman

Same thing.

GnomeSlice

No it isn't?

Also, there are a ton of Genesis games.

Some really good ones too.

Ronan Forman

Genisis is the NA name for it. Megadrive is the European one.

GnomeSlice

@RonanForman Oh, that's neat.

Ronan Forman

13:04

@GnomeSlice I meant good ones.

GnomeSlice

@RonanForman videogamecentral.com/sega-genesis-sub-terrania-used

This is one of the first that comes to mind, I'd have to go back through our collection to find more.

It's brutally hard though, and again, you have to play it all in one sitting (without save states that is) so I've never finished it.

Sonic 3D blast is pretty awesome. As well as all of the other Genesis Sonic games.

Pubby

3D blast good? Compared to Sonic 2006?

Asterix and the Great Rescue

Asterix and the Great Rescue was released by Sega for Mega Drive (Genesis in North America) in 1993 and for Game Gear and Master System in 1994. Story This game is based on the long-running, French comic book series Asterix the Gaul. The characters Asterix and Obelix must rescue Getafix (Panoramix) and Dogmatix (Idéfix) from the Romans, who are in the process of taking over Gaul. Gameplay It is a side-scrolling platform game, with various levels typical of the genre, including underwater. The startup screen offers a choice of difficulty level, as well as the ability to turn off ...

@Pubby Yeah, actually, 3D blast was great.

That asterix game was surprisingly good too.

But very, very difficult.

'Sonic and Knuckles' was cool too, because the cartridge opened up on top allowed you to attach another cartridge, and it gave you the ability to play as Knuckles in some of the other Sonic games.

@RonanForman Also, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fighting game is awesome.

Actually, there were a lot of great commercial games on the Genesis.

The Lion King was sweet. The Little Mermaid was bad ass (especially playing as Triton). The Flinstones was pretty fun.

Pubby

I always liked Shining Force and Kid Chameleon

Q: How do I get this vine thing off me?

StrixVaria

Let's tag it sonic-3-and-knuckles?

Is that a different game?

Pubby

Yeah, that's different

StrixVaria

File a bug report on meta then, I guess.

@Pubby What's the difference?

Pubby

13:23

@StrixVaria Sonic 3 and knuckles is the Sonic 3 levels with Knuckles. Just Sonic and Knuckles has different levels

StrixVaria

Oh that makes sense. I had Sonic and Knuckles back in the day but not Sonic 3.

I assume you put Sonic 3 into the top of the other cartridge?

@RonanForman I was wanting to give some time for Marco's alternative idea to gain some traction

Though truth be told I think the AWS route is a bad idea

Ronan Forman

@PeterGrace I have no idea what AWS is.

Peter Grace

amazon web services

Mana

Yo @Peter!

How's it going?

Peter Grace

@Mana howdy

same way it came, you?

Ronan Forman

@PeterGrace Would the advantage be cost?

Mana

Much the same.

Peter Grace

13:49

@RonanForman The AWS route would enable people to spin up a lot of instances for indeterminate periods of time, costing big bucks.

Ronan Forman

We're not exactly going to be using thousands of processes at a time, so having lots of instances doesn't seem like an advantage.

Peter Grace

Right, I think Marco's thought was that if two GameOn events happened to occur at the same time, then we wouldn't have a collision of resources

but going that route, people would have to be EXTREMELY careful not to leave instances on, lest it cost lots of money.

Ronan Forman

With the number of people who play, having two at once seems stupid.

Peter Grace

@origamirobot that's how I got that M-92. The range I went to shoot at, they were unpacking boxes and boxes of them. I asked what the deal was and they said they got the surplus from a gun shop that was closing for business. I asked 'em how much they wanted for the octogonal barrel .45LC and they said $425. I immediately put that sucker on layaway before even asking the wife :)

OrigamiRobot

@PeterGrace I think he got his purchase permit the next day.

@PeterGrace Whaaaaaaa

for $425 it was a sure thing.

OrigamiRobot

I got my Mosin for $145 :P

Peter Grace

@RonanForman upside: looks like we can afford 4gb of ram in the budget, so, the box should be nice and snappy.

@MarcoCeppi you run stackgaming, right?

Marco Ceppi

@PeterGrace correct

Peter Grace

@MarcoCeppi we should come up with a name for this server and give it an A record

Marco Ceppi

@PeterGrace definitely, just let me know what you guys come up with

I've got something coming out next month where people from the G.SE will be able to add DNS records from a website (as well as a bunch of other cool stuff)

Peter Grace

I'm provisioning the hostname as game-on.vsix.me (since my account at the colo is under vsix.me) but I'm figuring game-on.stackgaming.com might be just the ticket. @RonanForman, @James, thoughts?

ah, the joy of cloud computing. server starting.

Marco Ceppi

Speaking of which, can you enable the query ability on the minecraft server?

Peter Grace

14:33

certainly

that's a server.properties setting or a third party mod?

GnomeSlice

@RavenDreamer You get my message?

@PeterGrace I like that suggestion, I vote yes.

Marco Ceppi

@PeterGrace server.properties

rcon would be great too, so I could gather things like who was on the server, but I'll bug you about that in a few weeks when this side project is done

Ronan Forman

@MarcoCeppi Seeing as we'll be running events from game-on.* (or gameon.*) should we put @Thomas' server on mine.*

Marco Ceppi

@RonanForman we certainly could

Ian Pugsley

@RonanForman do people actively use that at all anymore?

Marco Ceppi

14:39

That domain is for you guys to use as you see fit

Ronan Forman

@IanPugsley I'm playing on it.

@MarcoCeppi my thought is that you guys will elect some trusted community members to have access to the individual accounts that run separate games

so, shell access with limited sudo if necessary

Marco Ceppi

Ronan Forman

@PeterGrace What's easiest?

I can have a basic minecraft server up pretty quickly without a lot of plugins, or we could do a source engine server, or both

@RonanForman Oh, ok! I thought this box was going to run a freeplay instance.

Ronan Forman

@PeterGrace Maybe we should have a creative server up to build any arenas we make and such though...

@MarcoCeppi Good, but we're not allowed to use that.

Marco Ceppi

@GnomeSlice I know, just trolling

GnomeSlice

Actually... since SE is sponsoring the server, maybe we ARE allowed to use that.

@RonanForman Meh...

Marco Ceppi

Since it's in the vein of "Game On!" maybe it should resemble a "1 UP!" type item

or even just 8-bit text that says 1UP, GAME ON!

GnomeSlice

Why '1 UP'?

Peter Grace

We already discussed about trademark usage when James named his module com.stackexchange.<x> -- our legal department doesn't want that to happen.

GnomeSlice

@PeterGrace Rah...

I don't really like the 'blue heart' logo.

Marco Ceppi

@GnomeSlice with 1UP you get to keep on gaming (Game on!)

Peter Grace

I think that there's some weird thing in legalese where if you don't actively persue people who use your trademark you sort of forfeit the right to later go after them

@badp que?

It's not really important.

badp

@GnomeSlice that's probably because fredley also watched it and then read the description of what's supposedly going on and simply commented himself: "wat"

I think @GnomeSlice has finally lost it.

badp

...in reply to the description, not to me.

fredley

@GnomeSlice OK

fredley

Why did you link to the comment rather than replying. I didn't get a ping

@badp I have no idea, it's just a prototype.

fredley

@GnomeSlice I'm at work, so can't play. Looks like colourful nethack

GnomeSlice

@fredley It's not a roguelike.

fredley

@GnomeSlice Oh

@fredley Heh...

fredley

Well, the free version comes with a trial. Once the trial's over it nags and eventually reverts to reduced features
