What's the best thing to do when the girl friend is out of town besides have threesomes and eat burgers? Why, play sauerbraten on a gamecube of course! :P

which TV channels would you broadcast on?
who'd you hire to do it?

If you decide to broadcast your home-video of how your playing sauerbraten on your local "open mike"-TV-Channel (dunno if that's the correct term) ... the answer'd be : nothing

On the other end : the sky's the limit ;-)

What about just an ad on online video providers? I could do that.

thinking about that, is it illegal to post screenshots without permission? would it be illegal to have a homepade sauer poster with screenshots on in a tv advert? meh.

#43: cool

by randomtagger on 06/08/2007 16:50

that's cool... they could have played sauerbraten on gamecube linux but it's unlikely

reply to this message

#44: They didn't play it on gamecube

by intranick on 06/09/2007 10:35

It probably wouldn't be difficult to edit an image captured from a monitor into the shot so it looks like it, otherwise perhaps they dropped the resolution and used a computer with svid and just made it look like he was playing -- possibilities are truly endless

Apparently a lot of people "give a fuck." Aardappel thought it was cool to see Sauerbraten on television, and I thought it was cool, too.

If you don't care, don't post. There is no need to be a jerk about it.

It\'s common practice, when filming a computer game segment on TV, to just have the characters mess about with the video game controllers while the TV displays recorded video game footage. All the director wants is that it \"looks\" like a video game is being played and so often not much attention is paid to weather this works. This has led to a wealth of continuity errors from people using old joysticks to play Street Fighter 2 (Father Ted) to two kids playing Sonic R in single player mode (Malcom in the Middle), to actors not even pressing the right buttons of the controller, to jumping randomly from one level to another on (the arcade version of?) Doom 2 (Grosse Pointe Blank).
So it\'s likely in this case, they just wanted him playing a shooting game, they shot one set of shots with him messing about with game controller (didn\'t matter which) and pretending to look at a screen, and another set of shots at a TV replaying gameplay footage that they recorded somewhere else (possibly screen captured and burned to DVD).
