[Mafia] The Exorcism of Mafiaville (GAME OVER)
Well. Is the setup such that there are more than 2 teams? And if there are more than 2 teams, are there more than 3 teams?
[Mafia] The Exorcism of Mafiaville (GAME OVER)
No. I just prefer the name werewolf for it. So I use that. But it's not... wacky, right? Just regular.

Summer Movie Wager
author=kentonaAlso, will this be another year as runner-up for me?E:
I was not runner-up, I was actually #1 in the international list. I misremembered. I actually was 4th in the real results list.
According to my preliminary calculations you're likely to win this year. There's a one point difference between you and me at the moment...
Summer Movie Wager
I did a bit of update on my document, but I won't post the update here until next weekend because apparently Dunkirk is going to take another place (cracking the top 5) and that is likely going to be the final positions. (The whole thing ends the first weekend of September)
I also did a look at the international top10. My hope for Valerian is this weekend as it opens in China. With a 100m opening it'll get into the international top10 (which is entirely possible). Beating out War for the Planet of the Apes at 10th place. But Apes hasn't opened in China yet but will do so at some point in September, so while it'll likely beat Valerian it might not do so in time.
The largest grossing international summer film by the way is Wolf Warrior 2, which has made 770 million in China alone. (And around 5 million in the rest of the world, so you're excused if you haven't heard of it, just like how you're excused if you're not from North America and have never heard of Captain Underpants, which made 75% of its money from North America, the second highest in the top 15 of NA films, the highest being Girls Trip which has made 90% of its money in NA so far.)
Yes. I'm bored at work and staring at numbers.

What are you thinking about right now?
author=LibertyWell I didn't get far enough into FF13 because of controller issues. (I'm pretty sure I didn't make it past the tutorial)
Aw. I guess FF13 just put another nail in the coffin then?
I also think it was impossible to rebind the keyboard and mouse controls (which were terrible anyway), because game developers hate left-handed people.
EDIT:
author=CorfaisusThat is true. But it was the third (more if you count the ones before it) game to use pretty much an identical system which was incredibly unengaging. (Between finding FF7 and playing FF9 my gameplay horizons had widened considerably) And the story was just... So... Slow. I was just running from point to point in a linear corridor hoping that maybe eventually I would get to actually do something.
There's nothing gameplay-wise about Final Fantasy 9 that's any worse than any of the other entries in the series. I think you're having a giggle.
And yes I realize this is exactly like the previous games. Which is why I never played a FF (or a JRPG) again.
