Resident Evil 2

My heart turned to stone after being unjustly fired a couple of years ago. It turned me into a cynical, bitter, untrusting person.

The thing is, I'm also better equipped to handle life now than I was back then. I stand up for myself a lot better. And more importantly, it helped me identify the people who DO matter to me.

The big issue I deal with now is that I can't even expect people to act in their own self interest, because the woman who fired me was still posting the job opening 18 months later. She fucked over her own business because she threw a temper tantrum. It scares me that people like her value ego over success.

Real pinball kinda blows

Persona

Luke's Bar was in play. I played Wolverine on another location Turn 2. I snapped and played Wave Turn 3.

After her ability went off, I gave my opponent a thumbs up emoji. They gave one back, then retreated.

They knew what was going to happen, and wanted none of it.

I've played all of these except V. Feel free to rank them and I can edit in a ranked-choice result list later (though we probably know who'll win).

My personal ranking is IV > VI > II > I > III

Oops, I accidentally used an elixer.

I really need to stop reading this thread because I haven't played Sky the 3rd yet.

Spider-Man
Yakuza 0

Yep, April 15th is when the Titanic sunk.

It's also the day Abraham Lincoln died.

It's also my birthday!

You are near the end of a very long fight in an RPG. The boss kills most of your party members, but you have one left who is strong enough to finish the fight on their own. However, in this game, KO'd party members do not gain experience after the fight. What do you do?

We all know an Earthbound movie's never getting greenlit, though I admit that would be a hell of a trip.

Personally, I'm kind of curious what Sonic's strength would be, as he's had multiple movies, TV shows, Sonic Frontiers, and got murdered. He still loses to Zelda, especially after TotK, but I doubt he'd embarrass himself if there was a contest today.

I don't know why society just collectively decided he was cool again, but whatever.

I just had a match where we both had Hazmat decks and one of the locations was Bar With No Name. Both of us had control over one of the remaining lanes, so we kept having a competition to see who could lose BWNN harder.

That's probably the only time someone's ever intentionally used Enchantress to kill Typhoid Mary's power.

I hate when I play Galactus and my opponent retreats so fast I don't get to see the animation play out.

I mean, I was gonna win anyway, but don't rob me of my fun. :(

Also, I made my attempt at a joke profile. Named myself "COVID-19" with the title "I Got Dem Variants"

I have a new entry in the "things that are statistically unlikely but have happened to me more than once" category: my opponent plays Wave, then X-Mansion drops Black Widow on my opponent's side, leaving me with a Widow's Bite that I can't get rid of.

Here's a list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNK_40th_Anniversary_Collection

Basically, I'm wondering if the price of the collection is worth Crystalis alone, because I don't see anything else of note here.

I'll be honest, when the Alba reveal happened my reaction was "Um, who was this guy again?"

Like he just didn't do anything noteworthy enough to really care. He was just another NPC as far as I was concerned.

I beat it in under two hours, but I pretty much just mainlined it.

I thought it was fun.

Having played exactly zero of the MMBN games, I'm excited to pick up the collection.

Wait, I played Mega Man Network Transmission. Yeah, I'm sure that counts.

GotY

I just experienced the highest high the game can possibly offer.

M'Baku won me a match.

I just pulled a Luigi and won by doing nothing.

First location was Subterranea. Next location was Central Park. My opponent played Debrii at some point. I skipped four turns in a row because I drew nothing but rocks. Meanwhile, after playing The Hood, my opponent realized they had clogged their board so much that they had little room to play anything, so they retreated.

Yay?

My favorite time an opponent emote spammed was when I played Galactus on the last turn when my opponent had a total of four power on it. He proceeded to spam Thanos until he heard "Nuf said, bub."

Weird interaction I found today:

I had my Hazmat deck and Luke Cage on the field. My opponent played Titania. Hazmat blasted their side, Titania switches to me. Titania's power went back to normal. The next time my opponent played a card, Titania swapped back over to them, over for her to lose her power again.

So your opponent playing Titania when you have a Hazmat deck is only a good thing for you.

Yoshi's Island is mid

Okay Jeff Gerstmann

Tails Adventure is underrated

I finally got Luke Cage, so I was able to put together the Hazmat deck I've been wanting to play for a while.

My favorite play was Hazmat on Bar Sinister, followed by Absorbing Man when my opponent had 8 cards in play, leading to a total power swing of 51 on the final turn.

Who wins on GameFAQs anime fourpack:

Naruto
Ash Ketchum

Luffy
Gohan

I picked the Yeti, simply because they're the least supernatural of the group.

I couldn't beat a grizzly bear in a fistfight, but if I had time to prepare I'd probably be able to get an appropriate weapon.

Stealth topic

I had a Mr. Negative deck activated with Wong active, plus Shuri placed on his lane. I was about to drop 40 power on one turn with Iron Man, but my opponent retreated. :(

I obviously jest when I say the original RE4 is perfect. However, it IS my favorite game of all time. The weird controls, quick-time events that were cool then but annoying now, and the second half of the game being too linear don't change the fact that it's paced perfectly, with hilarious dialogue, great set pieces, and amazing atmosphere. It was the first RE game that I played, and I remain a fan of the series to this day.

I did skip 6 though.

You can't improve on perfection.

Yes, only season 1 episodes on this list.

Pokemon Go is dumb

Ema is a bad character because she looks and acts like my stepsister, who I loathe. This is a completely valid reason to dislike her.

I look forward to playing this after playing SC, SC 3rd, and Zero.

I think the biggest shocker in this poll is SFII tied with Wonder Boy. I was under the impression the game would be closer to PSIV than the rest of the pack, but I guess Wonder Boy is that good? Or is Shining Force II merely okay?

I stupidly played Bast into The Raft, only realizing after I hit End Turn what I had done.

But then I drew Giganto, and The Raft was in the left lane, so... no harm done?

And I would walk five hundred miles and....

Hah, I just got an emote spammer to make a fool of himself.

Miniature Lab activated before either of us could play anything there. Muir Island filled up quick by both of us, and thanks to Misty Knight and Brood I knew he was playing a Patriot deck. Sure enough, Patriot and Mystique come down. Last turn comes, Miniature Lab opens back up, and both of us snap. He plays Ultron, filling the lab with boosted drones. I emote Thanos before Galactus is unveiled. My opponent starts mocking me, spamming Thanos constantly.

That is, until he realizes that I played Wolverine earlier in the game. When Wolvie gets resurrected, the emotes stop for a few seconds, then my opponent emotes Deadpool, than fist bump.

He acted like such a show-off because he forgot Wolverine was in play.

My guess is Melee

Pokemon Blue is gonna be my guess.

I'd never played any of these games before. This is a hell of a lot of content for $8.99, and that's not counting all the platforming and action games...

Beyond Oasis turned out to be pretty mediocre, though.

I was on a huge winning streak this morning with Galactus.

One reason I love this guy so much is because you can sometimes go into the final turn with 100% certainty that you're going to win. A lane is clogged with Goblins, Wolverine's ready, and you have priority, there's zero risk whatsoever.

Of course, it's hard to GET to that point, but I love it when it happens.

No

I saw the location that closes after Turn 4, so I saw my chance:

Turn 2: Wolverine
Turn 3: Wave
Turn 4: Snap, Galactus

I will relish those two cubes forever.

I beat the first game in the series recently. Just a heads-up, I didn't feel invested in the story until the end of Chapter 2. It gets WAAAAY better from there, though.
