@targetrasp down for playing?  I think @SpartanEvolved and I are going to play this afternoon.

@Kinikko jump in if you have time.


We are looking for somewhere around 2-3 pm.   At least that's when Ill be home to play.  Season characters.

Lol it is. I don't remember having these issues in the past.  Ie with Left for Dead and Left for Dead 2 and what not.  We had a regular crew we could just jump in with.  I'm trying to establish that again. 

Gaming doesn't seem to be the same either. It's more just jump on and play.   Working on it though! 

If we can get @SpartanEvolved to buy in ... we pull in Gigasaurus and work on others lol

I will be on this or Titanfall 2 for awhile.. feel free to join up today.

I saw @Frodus was playing  Call of Duty Black OPs 3 for the PlayStation 4 as well.  If we could get Frodus, @Jack , @SpartanEvolved , Gigasaraurus.... you and I.... that would be a pretty good team of players.

Well... my last post was wiped out.  This game looks pretty cool... it looks like there are a couple version.  I'm not exactly sure what the difference between the Multiverse and standard version of AXIOM Verge are.  It also looks like a decent deal for the game.

They even have a PS Vita Version:
AXIOM Verge - PS Vita - amazon.com

• Comes with Collectors Box, Sound Track, and other stuff.
• There's a UK Switch version like this as well Axion Verge

The Vita collectors version is about $61 right now... quite expensive, but I would think that has to be rare - considering the PS VITA doesn't have a lot of new physical copies of games released this day.   We need more Vita Posts in the PS Vita Board... I Will work on that.

Good gaming @targetrasp and @SpartanEvolved

Missed you @Jack --> Maybe next time.

We are now at level 22-23ish.

Great!   @Jack will join around 2pm.  We can start around then.

Maybe try for after lunch. @Jack  what about you?

@Jack and @targetrasp   what works better for you?  Am or early afternoon?

Good stuff @FJ1X !  I hope it this goes well. I'll check in from time to time on Keggar's Twitch.

I've seen many people playing Red Dead Redemption2 on PlayStation 4... There's also been a lot of hype surrounding this game.  Some are saying it's a must have game.  I played the 1st, but didn't get very far and it didn't keep my attention for very long.  It was acquired on sale - the full version with the zombie mode - Undead Nightmare  It was a good game from what I remember, but just didn't keep my attention.  Red Dead Redemption 2 looks good... but I'm a little worried the same thing will happen.

Who bought into the game and what are your thoughts?  Has it been worth the hype? 

Thoughts? Comments?  Post it up!

If you are on discord, join up on our chickendinnergaming.com Discord channel - the link is in the 1st post ... and also below.

Feel free to use the channel as well for when you organize / play games   

If you are a Diablo 3 player, please post up in the Diablo 3 - does anyone still play thread.

It would be cool to get more people together on this game.

@Jack and @Kinikko - @targetrasp and I ended up playing the other weekend.  I'm trying to get more people playing.  We are currently around level 9-10 Wizard and monk characters in the current season.

The newest thread is:
Diablo 3 Saturday - November 3, 2018

I'm trying to find a time and get others to join up.   

Do we have other Diablo 3 players as well?

As part of the What Current OS Are you Running thread, we started mentioning Linux.

As part of my current studies, I'm going through Linux Admin Training.  I've worked in many different environments - IBM i OS, Windows (tons of different environments), IBM AIX, and now I'm trekking into Amazon Web Services / Linux. 

At this point, I installed and started playing around with UBUNTU and OpenSUSE.  Hyper-V is available in Windows 10 Pro... that is now setup on my laptop and I've created virtual machines.  Through some of my other training... I will be working with CENTOS and Fedora.

What do you work with and Game with LINUX wise?  What troubles have you encountered and what did you do to solve them? 
Any input @trkorecky @retro junkie @Polygon @medataoh ?

Post it up!

On another note, I am kick starting a tech site soon.  This is going to be to document many of the new Amazon Web Services Cloud studies / what I learned...etc.  This site will also be to document a large range of topics from easy to level III work across many systems.  The plan is to make it so that I can search my site if I need to recall that information, but it's also there to allow others to search and view.  I'm creating the site in Drupal - I spent the last 4 months learning Drupal and may add some of that knowledge as well lol.  I'll create more on this topic later.  IF anyone would like to help write some of these documents, I will be game.  There will be a standards and requirements for writing the documentation.  But I welcome anyone who wants to do this to put their notes out there and also use the repository of knowledge.  There won't be much or any of a forum... until Drupal has a better system or I can do an SMF style bridge or anything but Drupal's forum.

Ikaruga... as much as I love a good SHMUP ( Especially IKARUGA)... this game is hard.  The bosses are killer... the bullets are plenty... and this game can be a punch in the face.

I hate to admit it, I've never completed the game.

I put a lot of time into Titanfall 2 Multiplayer on the Playstation 4.  I scored top in a couple of the rounds... mostly in the middle... and the bottom on a couple rounds.  Those bottom rounds were pretty rough lol.

Red Dead 2 looks good - We need a Red Dead 2 Topic (now created at the link to the left).  I just didn't play the 1st one enough to justify buying 2.  I see @Strubes playing it on PS4... plus a couple other friends.   It definitely looks tempting... just not sure at this time.

There has to be more must have games before the end of 2018.  I'm ok if there isn't lol... me wallety.

LOL... that is a bit rough, I hear you.  I've ran into a couple other games where that's happened and understand the feels.  I'm still rocking Titanfall 2 right now.  The game was played for about 4 hours on Saturday night... straight.  Best $9 I spent in awhile.

@targetrasp

Crusader = Joan of Arc?

Necro = beetlejuice?

And Witch Doctor is..... um..... Not sure yet

I did see something about a treasure goblin amiibo which has made me seriously consider diablo 3 on the switch...

OF COURSE the Goblin Amiibo makes you want to buy Diablo 3 on the switch...  LOL 

You should make a post on this Amiibo with Link.

I haven't noticed the AMIIBOs at all lately either... in fact, I Didn't even think about it until you all mentioned it.  That's strange.  They were everywhere 4 months ago.  I was at Gamestop to pick up Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Pro for the Playstation 4... and  I didn't see any there.

Now I'm curious... I wonder if our local Best Buy has any left.

I just wanted to see if I could get away with using masochistic...

and spell it like it sounds to me..

Mishun Accomplished. 

I love Black Ops 4 Free For All and Team Death Match modes as well... they are a lot of fun.   Some of the old maps are included... it's a blast from the past.  It brings a lot of good memories.  I suppose they had to include them for not providing a single player campaign.

You haven't played this one either, have you @targetrasp ? lol

@targetrasp @Kinikko @Jack @Grindspine

Targetrasp - We need to get back to Diablo 3 - definitely some this weekend.  Anyone interested in playing?  I need to figure out a time.  Our current season characters are at level 9-10. 

Well... considering Android is a Linux Derivative... I believe it's the most installed OS.  You cannot get your standard user to really get beyond a few features in Windows, it would be hard with Linux.  There are some technical challenges for people - Windows normally just has this stuff readily available where they don't have to think.  Think about iPhone versus Android phone.  There's a lot more to an Android phone.  Your standard user doesn't want to think.

The zombies definitely add a challenge when jumping people or getting jumped.  Once they start interfering with the process either way, you can have a pretty big fight on your hand.  So they can surround you and kill you while you're fighting... or after the fight when you don't have a ton of health left.

This made the game a lot of fun though.

@Jack and @Strubes on BLOPS4 - Hopefully that's clearer lol.


yeah... Titanfall 2 takes a bit to get used to... but I love the game.  I'm decent at it though.

LOL gotcha.     Yeah... I can hear that lol.  It's pretty good!

@CreepinDeth @retro junkie  @targetrasp I might make a Linux topic.  I installed Microsoft Hyper-V on Windows 10 and now I have Ubuntu and OpenSuse installed.  I'm going to test with CENTOS as well Fedora.  These are all a part of studies that I'm doing right now.

I'm starting to work with Amazon Web Servers (AWS)... and Working to start my Technical Documentation / How-to site. All this new knowledge as well as all my stuff from work will be documented for a couple different reasons.  Most importantly... for me to keep out there for myself and I plan to do this and share with others.  There won't much of a forum there - but Might be looking for people to help with some technical documentation, how-to articles, and they will range from Easy to Level III type work.  I plan to have easier stuff for people searching on stuff like How-to with Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint...  or power setting stuff - and there will be organization to help segregate stuff.

Anyway... more on that later.

Hear Mega Man?
