    I'm only home from drinking... so I'm going to say yes.

    Aw man, my mam decided to take the car today so I can't go :(


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,698 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Hmm, so piracy then and if we have time game music?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,328 ✭✭✭Pyongyang


    Can't have game music without mentioning SST or Zuntata!

    Check out SSTs live version of Last Wave on YouTube, it's amazing. :)

    I remember seeing those ads in Commodore Format, along with other classifieds for Public Domain software and Play By Mail companies.

    Apparently PBM is still popular to this day. Let's start a shoot'em up based PBM!

    You (the player ship) send the first letter to someone:

    Dear Mr./Ms. X,

    PEW! PEW! PEW!

    Yours sincerely,

    Mr. Pyongyang




    Some random rum character (the boss ship) sends you a reply:

    Dear Mr. Pyongyang,

    PEW! PEW! PEW!

    Yours sincerely,

    Mr./Ms. X



    *FFWD to 10 years later*


    Dear Mr./Ms. X,

    PEW! PEW! PEW!

    Yours sincerely,

    Mr. Pyongyang




    Dear Mr. Pyongyang,

    This is the estate of Mrs. Enid Pickles writing to inform you to desist from sending further letters. Mrs. Pickles died 3 years ago and frankly your letters are upsetting her surviving family.

    Yours sincerely,

    The estate of Mrs. Enid Pickles

    we were just talking about this, maybe another topic for a podcast, game magazines? also give Sonic The Comic another mention, since they used to have some reviews in it and have some Pokémon magazines there I could talk about

    Definitely a good topic. I could offer some pensioner-grade knowledge of Commodore Format, Zzap 64!, Commodore Power, Commodore Force, CU Amiga, Super Play and so on.

    Adultappleflavouredbeveragemale could go back a good bit further and talk about his time doing work experience for William Caxton in 1476.

    Separated at birth? :D

    Yuk yuk yuk....
    Funny guy...

    Caxton, used his coxcomb as a drinking goblet to impress chicks, true story....

    Also Dinorex want me to do the paragraphs for the sonic podcast if no one else has done one?

    I can do this week as backup for when Atavan realizes that he cant use the car and cry's off even though he could get a 15 Bus all the way from Dundrum to Coolock


    ;)

  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,524 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Everything I learned about women I learned from Chun Li.

    Just listened to a couple of these podcasts today.
    They're great but I'd love to see a some video to go along with them. Now I don't mean some live video as that would be a hassle to setup. I mean some gameplay added as you talk about certain games or developers etc.

    As you talk about Contra some gameplay would play or maybe some piracy adverts from years ago would scroll by or play as you discussed piracy on the retro systems.
    Anyway, great job on them and keep up the good work.

    Maybe think about maybe doing a one off special with video to see how it goes?
