I am part Ukrainian, which gives me my odd-ass last name, part Scottish from my maternal grandfather, 1/4 dutch from my paternal grandmother, there's some Germans in there who were in the Pennsylvania dutch and then a bunch of English scattered around.

No wonder I'm so cheap.

Unreal Tournament GotY edition with two friends in LAN, let the kickass action begin >:3

You're in for some fun. I love that game. I recall during one of the annual gatherings against my brothers in LAN games, I was an absolute nightmare in Unreal. I mean, I laid bio-traps around certain corners of halls, grenade-tossed flak cannon rounds with great accuracy, and chose some good sniper spots. Additionally, if I kept of dying inexplicably, it took me until maybe the 2nd-4th time dying for me to pinpoint where I was getting killed from, found a good counter-sniping spot (provided they were camping) and popped them in return by counter-camping (not really; I actually hunted for how to reach the spot and render it unsafe).

Arena levels like DM-Pyramid, DM-Morpheus, or DM-Fractal are always a fun levels to battle in over LAN. If you want some fun mods to play, you gotta try/look for Dark Magic, Unreal4Ever, or ChaosUT. If you want to quickly and effectively beef up your UT and FPS skills, get the PCGamer Olympics mod for UT as well. Also hold competitions for who can plow through that mod quicker.

We also still need to setup a server so we can hold Bay-12 matchups as well.

EDIT:
In other news, Firefly marathon on Science Channel.

 This has probably been public knowledge for a long time, but there is going to be a Battleship movie. Yes, the game. The trailer has alien ships firing pegs into battleships.

 It is everything I have ever wanted.

What the fuck?

We need a Monopoly the Movie.

But that would be the most boring movie ever.

[Duke 2.0]

 Monopoly the movies only real gimmick would be the protagonists at the end of the movie going to jail and the antagonist landing on Boardwalk, which the protagonists own, thus bankrupting him.

[Darvi]

I think you can't cash in if you're in jail, though.

[Duke 2.0]

 I'm pretty sure high-level strategy is to try and always be in jail when everything is set up so you never land on opponent properties.

I could see Hungry Hungry Hippos as one of those Monster Animal movies, though. Four hippos flees from a zoo into the marshland of Gulf-side USA and develops a taste for human flesh.

I think the best parts of Monopoly would be when competing companies are complaining that the company that's running the bank is laundering huge sums of money behind everyone's back while they're taking a break. The many conflicts that form between the companies and the storms of vulgarity that fly across can also be pretty interesting to watch. I think Monopoly would be certified as a comedy for these elements alone. Of course, as long as you, the viewer, are a spectator, and not caught up in the "Game".

I think Monopoly would work better as a TV series than a movie though. The Game of LIFE can work better as a "Reality" TV show or game show.

EDIT: ↓
Is it any good?

[TheBronzePickle]

The Game of LIFE is already a game show. It's on the Hub, the same channel as Friendship is Magic.

[Duke 2.0]

 I dunno if Monopoly would work that well as a spectator sport. Analysis on eSports theorized that the reason people find it entertaining is the information hidden to each player but not the observers. This creates a form of tension that spectators love. There isn't much hidden from multiple players in Monopoly.

I never actually watched it, I just saw the commercial for it.

Also, don't use edits to respond to something below you, most people won't catch it and it breaks the flow of the thread for those who do.

Oh really?
