How to play Sega Genesis games on your Computer

In today's world where it is getting a daily struggle for many to keep themselves and their hardware updated to play the latest games, there was a time that Alhamdulillah my generation had seen in which life was somewhat simpler.

We played on variety of 8 bit systems in our childhood (From India, Consoles turned up late in here) but when Sega Genesis came into the market, not only did the graphics get an update from 8 bit to 16 bit, rather the content of the game itself evolved, matured.

So here is how you can play those legendary games on your System and relive that era. Enjoy.

OMG! Words!

Hi,

It's been a long time. Caught up with life and using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS as my go to OS on my desktop, I have been out of the Linux scene for ages it seems. Gone are the days when I used to have all the news about what's happening in the Linuxverse.

What's new, what's old, Who ranted, and at whom, Unity Vs Gnome-Shell. Flame Warrrrrsssss. Good old days.

In all this, I forgot about the nifty little Elementary OS slumbering on one of the partitions.

As booted it up, it greeted me with my favourite wallpaper that I got from a Sherlock Holmes game and as I was getting myself around different parts of the OS look what I found.

OMG! Words!



To quote Mr. Joey, "Calling all grammar nazis and typo hunters: Put your fingers where your gripes are and go up against the editors of OMG! Ubuntu! in time wasting typing game ‘OMG! Words!’".

So yeah, I thought about having some go at it and then I made this short demo for you all.

Enjoy.
