Board 8 > SaveEstelle/LeonhartFour in Different Houses: Contest Edition [SELF]

(+) Yeah! (+)

Primetime Bengals didn't show up for once

AJ Green got me 29.9 and Tucker gave me another 7 so I'm off to a solid start

wish the Ravens had tried to kick a FG at the end and follow it up with an onside kick but oh well

I'll never be sad to see them lose
---

also I think my fantasy D/ST this year as much as possible might just be "whoever is playing the Bills this week"

dropped the Lions for the Chargers this week
---

~it's happening~

Unless only the patch for Xenoblade 2 went live which would be the ultimate troll. Xenoblade 2 currently updating~
---

I should be getting a physical copy of that imminently

...though I wont be playing at least until I finish DQ XI
---

Should be a week before the physical version unless you're getting a really early shipment. >_>
---

Oh right, forgot about that
---

normally I don't care about MJ in Spidey stuff, but the dynamic between her and Peter is really good in this game

partly because I can totally relate to it
---

Download complete~

I saw some images/tweets floating around that Torna gets its own icon on the Switch home page but mine didn't. I started up XC2 and it was accessible through the title screen there. Don't know if that changes once you have save data or something and the difference is those tweets came from reviewers who had a review copy/that'll be the case for non-expansion pack people but just so you know.

I also reluctantly came to the conclusion that it's totally a bad idea for me to start Torna now and I need to just go to sleep and start it tomorrow. >_>

It sounds like you are more responsible than I am. <_<
---

Spider-Man Act 2 complete. Setting themselves up for one heck of a finale with the Sinister Six assembling at the end there heck yeah. I'm assuming Act 3 is the last one.

Also all side missions complete and all skills acquired.

i doubt it >_>

It just worked out that way.

Played a bit earlier. Really enjoying it! Lora and Jin are better leads than Rex and Pyra literally by the opening scene. Can already tell I'm gonna be mad that this wasn't the real XC2 and also that it'll end too soon. =(

Then spent way too much time exploring areas that are clearly way too high level by going MGS and trying to dodge enemies. Like a true Xenoblade player.
---

Oh, huh. Looks like Resonance of Fate got rated by Germany's ESRB equivalent for PS4/PC.

Might talk myself into buying the PS4 version even though I've played and beaten the PS3 one. Pretty fun game. Really endearing cast and cool concepts but so much unrealized holds it back as being something I can give a whole-hearted rec for to most people.

It is ridiculously stylish though.
---

Just finished the Electro/Vulture boss fight in Spider-Man. That was really cool.
---

Sherlock episode 5 beated. I was pretty excited to see this one because Hound of the Baskervilles is easily my favorite Holmes story, and it delivered.

the solution felt like something straight out of a Professor Layton game though heh
---

Wasn't a fan of the Hound of the Baskervilles ep. Would rate it as one of the not so great Sherlocks. I didn't like the book either though, so what do I know?
---

I think Hound of the Baskervilles was the only one I actually read
---

Well, it's the best one, so if you had to read just one, that's a good choice. I kinda wish they had let Watson have a bit of the limelight in this episode like they did in the book, but it was still good.
---

So I went hiking this morning/afternoon, so I just saw the college football scores for the first time. Happy the Vols won, and then I saw Florida State got destroyed by Syracuse and Nebraska lost to Troy. Yikes.
---

And now Wisconsin lost to BYU LOL
---

Whew, Scorpion/Rhino boss fight beated in Spider-Man. That one was pretty tough.

Also, 100% of the districts complete. I honestly don't think the Platinum in this game will be too tough. I'm only four away from it now. Three of them are hidden trophies, so I don't know exactly what they entail (although I imagine one of them is for beating the game), so we'll see.

so here's a potential answer to the lack of an FFVIII PS4/Switch port
---

Sherlock episode 6 beated

Of course, knowing the source material, I knew what the twist at the end would be, but it was still a pretty great episode. Once again, this guy playing Moriarty was fantastic.
---

Just got the point of no return warning in Spider-Man, so I'm closing in on the end now.

lol I caught some of that game.

destroyed is right

Persona 5 with all the adults and kids switched. Fun times.

Also Sherlock 6 is fantastic.
---

Spider-Man beated, Platinum achieved

GOTY

And we've got three rounds of DLC coming up too
---

so apparently a cornerback for the Bills decided to retire at halftime of the second game of the season

no joke that actually happened

it's seriously one of the most unbelievable things I've ever heard of in pro sports
---

lmao

oh my god lol of the year locked up in week 2

XD
---

very disappointed the Browns couldnt pull off another draw, but I guess the Vikings and Green Bay picked up the slack.
---

to be fair the Browns tried their hardest to tie

that kicker had to be on the take
---

Week 1: 0-0-1 being the best Browns start since 2004
Week 2: Mid-game retirement

nfl comedy game on point this season
---

the Browns provided a lot of entertainment both weeks

kicker missed the go ahead XP after a late TD

I mean they still could've lost the game anyway but still

very fitting that it happened against the Saints though because if anyone can relate to the pain of a missed XP after a miraculous TD it's them
---

Attack on Titan season 3 episode 4 complete

Levi so good

also how many Ackermans are there anyway
---

Persona 5 anime episode 24 complete

They do the P5 calendar thing with the episode numbers for the next episode preview, and it's showing up to 28 now, so I wonder if that means there will be at least that many episodes, or if they're just continuing to go up for consistency. Either way, the next episode should be the end of Sae's Palace, so they've still got quite a bit of ground to cover.
---

I'd assume it'll be at least 36 but I dunno when they'll air
---

Hmmm...Not having a great week in fantasy, but victory is still salvageable. I need 13.5 points from Jordan Howard tomorrow to win. Not a certainty, of course, but doable.

I might end up regretting my decision to start Luck over Wilson if I lose though. Part of me suspected that the Redskins still weren't very good despite their big week 1 win, and while I was proven correct, Luck still didn't have a good game statistically. I just figured he'd have an easier time racking up fantasy points than Wilson would against the Bears D, but I guess I'll find out tomorrow!
---

I managed to win this week by the skin of my teeth. Thank you Todd Gurley.
---

Sherlock episode 7 beated

Watson was excellent in this episode. I like that the dynamic between him and Holmes is a little different now because it's understandable that it would be.

Oh, right. I also watched this. Agreed, Levi is the best. And so is Hange.

think you're joking but Mikasa, Levi, and Kenny is the current count I think.
---

I got Spiderman yesterday thanks to all the hype

I hope this lives up to expectations Leon

Yeah, it's a joke, but I just thought it was a weird twist to make Kenny one (as well as the fact that Levi was unaware that he was one, too), and they haven't even revealed the connection between the two of them and Mikasa yet. I'm just wondering if we'll find out that yet another character on the show is an Ackerman.

well it lived up to my expectations so that should be good enough

only the second non-VN type game I've gotten a Platinum on

one of these days I'll go back and finish the ME2 Platinum

was at the game.

can't blame him.

though the defense really played hearts-out in the second half so maybe he was what was holding them back?

lol no
---

the sad thing is that the Bills might not actually be the worst team in the NFL because my word are the Cardinals awful
---

Huh, Square is finally localizing those "On the Way to a Smile" short stories that serve to fill in the gap between the end of FFVII and Advent Children. That's nice, I guess.
---

so SBAllen said there are "no specific restrictions" for the contest this year

everyone nominate Spider-Man

in round 2 of me vs. screen protector I have emerged victorious

let's hope we avoid a rubber match altogether
