I don't have a console or really even play video games anymore, but I bought Injustice 2 for my little brother for Christmas and played it with him a few times. Really fun.tragabigzanda wrote:i don't think the Colossus remaster should be valid.
Plat, do you even play Injustice 2? On PS4? Let's fight sometime

I debated long and hard about which Lucasarts adventure game to choose, but this was the pinnacle of the genre for me.

I've wanted to play this for years and have the remastered version on my PS4 (Day of the Tentacle, too) but just haven't had the time to dive in yet.ABNorman wrote:

Both this and Day of the Tentacle are excellent games - DotT for clever puzzles and jokes, this for story and dialogue.

Unfortunately, this is not eligible for your team. This as part of the core Mario series. You already have Super Mario World on your team. Spinoff Mario games would be allowed (Mario Party, Paper Mario, Mario RPG, etc.) however.run2death wrote:Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)

I wasn't a big adventure gamer, but I loved Shadowgate, if someone wants to pick that and guarantee my vote.

Re: Video Game Tournament Draft: M_D's Pick!
No. Changing the rules of a draft in the middle of the draft is the cardinal sin of running a draft. It's a PS2 pick plain and simple.tragabigzanda wrote:i don't think the Colossus remaster should be valid.

Hey MD, Jammer actually picked THPS3.

Re: Video Game Tournament Draft: ElloSailors's Pick (2x)!
I was totally going to pick Oregon Trail last. Motherfucker!
Again, when I’m off work I’ll write my rebuttal why the remastered SOTC should count.
Also good looking out for that Plat.
