Ramerco: it is very connection sensitive
Sarcazmo: oh yeah?
Sarcazmo: well
Ramerco: if any packets are dropped, it usually freaks out
Ramerco: its fun though
Sarcazmo: well, the fact that there's any sort of online multiplayer is quite nice
Ramerco: easier to get running than the old commodore
Sarcazmo: I guess that depends on how many C64's you've been stockpiling
WhosYourBuddy? left the game
Ramerco: load"$",8,1
Ramerco: haha thats all i remember
Ramerco: or "*"
Sarcazmo: right
Sarcazmo: I learned how to program on the c64
Ramerco: i learned how to play games
Sarcazmo: that works too
Ramerco: this was one of my favorites though
Ramerco: was a little too young to really get it at the time, my brothers generally won easily
Sarcazmo: yeah, this was a favorite - but I also had a hacked version of "Super Mario Brothers"
Ramerco: for c64?
Ramerco: no idea there was such a thing
Sarcazmo: it was some european game that was hacked up to look like super mario brothers
Ramerco: apparently atari made mario bros and mario bros 2 for c64 in 84 and 87
Ramerco: oh internet, when will i stump you
Sarcazmo: yeah, I had the "mario brothers" for the c64 too
Ramerco: i always thought mario was invented by nintendo, shows what i know
Sarcazmo: it was also where I was intorduced to the fine art of pirated video games
Ramerco: ha, yeah, we had cousins with a c64 and we traded disks regularly
