@SpoonMan Abrams X has volunteered to help mod in the case of flaming etc.  He will be the second in command so to speak.  Hope you all will respect him like you do me!

I was forced against my will talked into helping keep things kosher and help out where I can... and mix up @ZeldaFan042 & @ZeldaFreak several times lol

Definitely a 9/10. Maybe even a 9.5

Easily one of the best libraries of games out there, and it does have one of my top favorites in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

But while it was a great console and everything, but one thing that holds it back a bit for me is constant issues myself and friends/family had with the console.

People always cite the Xbox 360's "Red Ring of Death" but I knew of far more PS3's breaking down and needing repairs if not outright replacement.

That said, the first actual PS2 I owned myself, my brother @MashFan81 and I cobbled together from the various bits of carcasses from other friends broken PS2s, which was then dubbed "The Frankenstation". It started out as 3 different systems but eventually had bits and pieces from about 6, til we got ourselves a cheap PS2 slim and gave the Frankenstation to one of our friends who had supplied parts for it previously. To my knowledge it still went a few more years strong after that.

Oh I must’ve skimmed over that. I’m good with that start date (or even earlier lol. I’m ready now). 

@Hammerfestus I would highly recommend brushing up and checking out the Mafia Scum wiki as it's easily one of the best resources out there for the game of Mafia/Werewolf (both the same thing as well as other names as @Makarpointed out)

https://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Main_Page

"How to Play" Mafia/WW https://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Quick_Guide_to_Mafia

Brief history of Mafia/WW https://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Game_of_Mafia

Abbrevations/Terminology you'll want to familiarize yourself with https://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Commonly_Used_Abbreviations

As @Jeevansaid the commitment is as much as you want make it. I'll save the various game theory in posting activity and just say the minimum you'll at least want to try and maintain at least check in once a day to the game thread. You'll get a better idea by just diving in head first, but don't be afraid to ask questions or just go for it if you get a gut instinct about someone being scum!

In fairness to Cena, he does amazing work with the Make-A-Wish Foundation and while it sucks, he's not any different than the NBA in terms of pro-China for $.

To the point if I may play devil's advocate, Cena also does a considerable of other philanthropic work, and is said to actually be a pretty good guy backstage when he was actively performing in WWE.

As it were too, far as I can tell he danced around as much as possible from actually outright saying "Taiwan is not a country" as he could muster (unless I missed something) and has been dully called out for it by on the other side for it to via comments on the other social media (as per the article linked in the OP)

I would assume that the only reason he even did it is because of immense pressure from corporate overlords to backtrack it.

This of course does not at all excuse it for being exceptionally feckless of him, but I wouldn't personally completely demonize the guy over it. Just wish he had more backbone and stood behind his words previously. That would actually mean something.

... is that Conan O'Brien?

Watching AEW Double or Nothing tonight. So far been a decent show.

Current match on is the Tag Team Title match Champion Bucks vs Jon Moxley & Eddie Kingston

Looking forward to the main event title match, as well as the Casino Battle Royale.

Wonder who will be the TBA?

Hearing it may be Nick Gage, which would be interesting following the recent episode of Dark Side of the Ring about him. Though I'm still secretly hoping it's Daniel Bryan lol

If I am to contribute anything, it's demanding requesting that @Jeevan make @OptOut's character flavor that of the fifth lady turtle "Venus" from that single season of the live action show that absolutely no one likes https://turtlepedia.fandom.com/wiki/Mei_Pieh_Chi

Wait, what?

Why not dude? Was it the time we were wolves together and lost immediately?

Between issues in the last game and some other things.

Mostly don't have the time/energy to invest in it atm either.

Maybe in the future.

Already spoke to Jeevan on Discord

But for future reference I'm not interested in Werewolf going forward.

Good luck with the game and hope y'all have fun with it!

I found this from a bot I added to one of my discord servers

https://freestuffbot.xyz/

It will post anytime new games come up free, and can even be set to ping a server role for it! Quite handy!

Super Mario Bros. 3 no contest. One of my all-time favorite games!

Especially in the context of the question in the OP, I would inevitably get bored of SM64, but I always love me some SMB3.

I demand request a couple Saturday Morning Cartoon debates, maybe ones from each decade? 80s, 90s, 2000s?

80s He-Man, Thundercats, Transformers

90s X-Men, Batman, TMNT

2000s Jackie Chan, Justice League (Unlimited), Last Airbender (Didn't watch this til later so not sure if it was actually a Sat AM show lol)

Then could also do other versions like Live Action shows with Power Rangers vs Beetle Borgs vs Kamen Rider or something, or Anime kings with Naruto vs DBZ vs Pokemon lol

Possibilities are endless!

Grew up with the Eagles being played regularly. A bit of nostalgia maybe but 8/10 easy for me

The one exception for me is Hotel California.  There's some kinda magic with that song.  I remember lifting the needle on my dad's album and playing it over and over again as a kid.

It's arguably one of the greatest songs ever made, on it's own might give it a 10. It is pretty great.

6/10

I feel like the sequels were at least a bit better? Still fun games though, and different but in a good kind of way

As said in other threads, SNES though Gamecube is a close contender

Both have some of my favorite games on them, but SNES has my all time favorite

There was some good stuff on it.

Never actually owned it (a couple friends had it so we played) but what I did play I enjoyed

Virtua Cop and Virtua Fighter were my jams lol

6/10

A definite classic. Not anything I'm super interested in playing but I don't really dislike it by any means

5/10

There is, it's optional, kind of like how you pay a flat rate for only MMO/CO-OP RPG Guild Wars 2 and you get the full game.  But then you have a choice to buy into fluff crap of pure uselessness, aesthetics, or speed up/perks for the lazy types.

The game parrots BOTW super well, I'd call it homage level quality on those lines, even makes some of the painful bits of BOTW like the overkill breaking of stuff a thing of the past.  The fetch quest style of stuff that BOTW has, grossly so with seeds and mini dungeons(shrines) are in this game, but spread far more smarter, wider, thinner so it feels truly optional to do it all, but doing some would be a smart idea yet it's not painfully dragged out or way out of the way either.  The flow is just good.  I put the game down, not because I wanted to, but I had other stuff to not keep collecting dust on as it will suck you in.

Sounds like it would be worth picking upnext time it is on sale. Thanks friend, cheers!

Is there any actual exclusives on this besides Halo and Gears (and technically is Gears even exclusive with it being on PC I'm pretty sure... hell is Halo even?)

I'd rather have a PS4 over Xbone, and even then not really lol

Good read/watch
