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.


To be fair, no definitive decision was made. I asked for others input and it seems like most people are against allowing the PS4 version. I was basing my initial reaction on the fact that they completely made the game from the ground up.

Plat, do you even play Injustice 2? On PS4? Let's fight sometime

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.

Let's play together this xmas

My rebuttal is that I have no rebuttal.

I only suggest playing the 2018 PS4 version of Shadow of the Colossus if you haven't played it, because that version of the game has the best visuals and controls, at the simplest level it's the best version of the game. But it really is an entirely new upheaval of the game, it's not the same at the data level technically. I'll vote for the PS2 one if I have to insetad because it is a great game regardless. The PS3 version is the worst one from what I've heard, that's the only one I never played and from what I understand, translating the game to the frame rate and definition for PS3 severely crippled the controls and made that version insanely difficult when it came to beating the later colossi. The PS4 version corrected that error by rebuilding from the ground up and accounting for today's lofty standards in design and spatial recognition visually. They resurrected this game greater than ever.

I have no idea if anyone here has even played this game, I know Monkey Driven is my friend on the PS network but I've never seen if he's played this either, but it really is a great game and the latest iteration blew my fucking mind. If anything, it's the greatest remastered game of all time. If you enjoy crippling loneliness in the best way, traveling through scenic and diverse landscapes, and battling huge motherfuckers that outsize you on a 100:1 scale, play this game.

Sorry I'm late. Do I just drop in and throw some bomb shit or must I wait for the lesser skaters to finish their run?

I've always enjoyed sports games, but most of them get updated so often, it's hard to pick one. I think NHL 94, FIFA 98 Road to the World Cup and Championship Manager 2001/02 were truly stellar, and golden generations. I've played most FIFA versions, one way or another, a lot of people here buy it every year. I enjoyed FIFA 17 quite a lot, but it's difficult to nominate it as there are such small changes every year.
