How quickly does Mafia 3 happen?

I know the story is told as a documentary, so I imagine there must be very specific dates for everything. As I’m playing through the game again I was thinking about if things are happening so quickly that Sal Marciano is playing 100% defense and can’t just send guys back in to reclaim territory. So my question specifically is how much time passes from Lincoln waking up from his coma until he kills Sal Marcano?

Do you think we’ll get horses?

In 2010, we got Red Dead Redemption, which gave us some pretty great horse mechanics. In GTA V, there were multiple points where there was supposed to be a horse in early versions, most notably in the cancelled Sharmoota Job at Martin Madrazo’s house, but these were scrapped presumably due to some complications involving the horse.

2018’s Red Dead Redemption 2 gave us arguably the best horse mechanics to this day, and it’s clear from gameplay that GTA 6 was built off of RDR 2. The earliest signs of this was years ago when people found signs that Rockstar was testing cars and automatic weapons inside of RDR 2, but it’s pretty easy to see the similarities between the two games in the Extended Look when you see the way Jason interacts with San4San, pets the dog, or has the option to hurry along Lucia when she’s getting dressed. Being that GTA 6 is built off some of the mechanics of RDR 2, it’s safe to assume the horses would function properly this time IF Rockstar chooses to add them. So the question is: would they want horses in the game?

I don’t think horses would be out of place in Southern Florida. There are horse farms and tracks for horse racing. As I mentioned before, any time a game comes out with horses, people compare it to RDR 2 because that game did horses so well. If Rockstar kept horses in the game, people would be comparing horse games in 2036 to GTA 6.

I was replaying campaign and blown away by the vibrance of the Gibraltar map and how different it is from Iberian Offensive. I wish IO looked like that.

I know there are various factors in play such as one being a scripted single player campaign where they can use different techniques for the lighting and the other is a multiplayer match with destruction. One is the invasion and the other is later in the battle. However it doesn’t seem like IO is the battle torn version of the campaign missions Gibraltar. If it was, the buildings would originally have been painted those colors, then been muted, but the buildings are all just sort of gray to begin with. The real life city of Gibraltar is very colorful just like the campaign mission, but they also nailed it with Saints Quarter, which might be the best looking map in the game. I know how nitpicky this post sounds, and it is a nitpick, but it’s jarring going from playing this map for the last year and being accustomed to seeing how bland it is as opposed to what is almost the exact same map in campaign, but it is actually full of color and life. I know they’re reworking Blackwell and Sobek, and that people have also asked them to adjust the lighting and made comparisons between the Alpha lighting and the final buildings lighting on maps like Cairo, and if they’re ever going to revisit some of these launch maps, adding some color back to Gibraltar would be an appreciated update

Trying to play on PS3 MP for the first time in a long time. Is there a trick to get online?

I keep getting this screen and I know when I play BO2 I have to launch the game while offline, start a round of local multiplayer, and then I can sign in to PSN and go online. Is there a similar thing on MW3?

What would be Frank’s ideal version of that night be?

At the start of the movie Frank, Riff Raff, Magenta, and Columbia are all at the church where Betty Munroe and Ralph Hapshcatt had just been married. I’m not sure if they were there to observe and select Brad and Janet or if they were there for a brain from a recently deceased child in the coffin you see them standing by.

Anyways, whether it was by accident or by design, Brad and Janet end up at the Frankenstein Place, on a very special night. The Phantoms do the Time Warp, which I guess is their method of traveling space and time, but it doesn’t seem like Frank wants to go home yet. Am I wrong in interpreting Magenta and Riff Raff’s discussion at the end of the film as meaning that Time Warp is how they travel time and space? During Sweet Transvestite as he introduces himself, he does say to Brad that he’ll get them a mechanic. Who knows if that’s truthful or not.

Frank brings Rocky to life, and another thing goes wrong when Eddie escapes. Frank doesn’t kill him right away, but only decides to when he sees Rocky dancing to Hot Patootie. Before then he was even tapping his foot with the song. So even though Eddie thawing out was not part of Frank’s plan, he didn’t mind it at first, and might have been able to live with Eddie being out again if it weren’t too disruptive to his agenda and ego.

Everyone goes to their separate rooms for the evening before dinner and Frank sleeps with Janet and Brad, but two things happen that go against Frank’s plans for the night. 1. Riff Raff scares Rocky and makes him go running, which (along with Janet seeing Brad and Frank on the monitor together) leads to 2. Rocky and Janet sleeping together

Dr Scott shows up to the house uninvited, Frank learns that Janet slept with Rocky, and everyone goes to eat meatloaf for dinner. NONE OF WHICH was planned for the night. Frank is somewhat keeping his cool at this point until Janet and Rocky embrace in front of him and he chases Janet for it, which leads to everyone being Medusa’d, including Columbia who had been in Frank’s inner circle and I doubt he had planned on anything happening to her. He gives the order to prepare the Floor Show, which he doesn’t have to explain, so was the Floor Show a planned thing?

At the end of the floor show, they’re singing Wild and Untamed Thing and while they seem to all be mind controlled they are safe and in Frank’s good graces in that moment. I imagine if Riff Raff and Magenta didn’t barge in, he would’ve had Brad and Janet live in the castle with him, but who knows if they would be in control of their minds or be under his spell. Did he always plan on doing the floor show with Brad and Janet? Was the Satanic Mechanic ever going to fix their car and send them on their way?

After going over EVERYTHING that went wrong for Frank that night, and imagining none of those things went wrong, what was his plan for the night and his ideal future after that?

I hope we get a RHPS Score EP. Since Richard released his demos this year I don’t think it’s impossible

The songs I think they could include in the EP are:

- Drum intro before Sweet Transvestite as Frank’s elevator descends. Maybe as a new edit of Sweet Transvestite. Remove Brad and Janet speaking and just let the drums lead into the song.
- Synth/Bass/Guitar (?) notes that play as Brad and Janet step out of the elevator and into Frank’s laboratory for the first time
- Rock song that plays as Frank brings Rocky to life (this is sort of part of the intro in the 1973 London Cast Recording of Sword of Damocles, but not really the same)
- Electric guitar wedding march after I Can Make You A Man (Reprise)
- Music that begins to play as Janet and Brad are sent to their rooms
- Music that plays as Riff Raff torments Rocky
- Music that plays as Dr. Scott is summoned from the Zen Room to the Laboratory
- Happy Birthday, Rocky
- Music that plays as Eddie’s body is revealed inside of the dinner table
- Music that plays when Riff Raff and Magenta do their super secret handshake around the statues of everyone
- Music that plays after I’m Going Home as Riff Raff kills Columbia, Frank, and Rocky
- Music that plays as Magenta and Riff Raff talk about Transexual and the Time Warp

Also, does anyone know if these songs have names or where I can listen to them other than watching the movie or searching the scenes on YouTube?

What if Jessica Harper & Cliff De Young were in RHPS and Susan Sarandon & Barry Bostwick were in Shock Treatment?

u/Spectre-ElevenThirty — 1 month ago

Would Barry Bostwick have made a good Superman in the 1978 movie?

When I see Brad with his glasses on I always think he looks a bit like Clark Kent and I have to imagine what it would be like if he did play Clark/Superman in a movie. If the only thing different about the ‘78 movie was that Barry got the part instead of Christopher Reeve, would it be as much of a success as it was?

Revival Week is being delayed by one (1) week to September 18-25, 2026.

The initial post this morning had an excellent response, and some of you pointed out that War Dogs would be releasing the day before, so we’ll wait one week so you can get your hands on that, and then we’ll revive this game.

How do you rate Video Games on IMDb? How do you use IMDb differently than other apps like LetterBoxd, Rotten Tomatoes, etc?

I’ve been using IMDb for about the last year, and so far I’ve been using it exclusively out of the apps for rating your media. When I rate a movie or show, I rate it for the acting, directing, writing, storytelling, the premise, etc. it’s very easy to rate those. When I rate a video game it’s a bit different. Do you rate the game for its story mode alone? Red Dead Redemption 2 has a 10/10 story with a barebones multiplayer. Battlefield 6 has excellent multiplayer but a campaign that was rushed and not written very well. Some games don’t have a story mode and are all multiplayer, like Outlast Trials, but it’s a very fun game and the lore documents and seasonal cutscenes add really excellent storytelling. How do you use IMDb to rate games?

Edit: I just got onto Letterboxd and Rotten Tomatoes and it seems like they don’t have video games at all

As unlikely as it is, I have to ask: please give this game one final update to add all the maps into rotation and items into the store

I missed getting Soap as an operator in 2020 and since I started playing again in 2022, it’s read, “Unlock by purchasing the Soap Operator Bundle”. Well, he’s not in the store, and the store hasn’t refreshed in who knows how long. The same can be said for several operators, and store bundles that people might want.

When was the last time you played on Oil Rig, Vacant, Aniyah, Arklov, Azhir, Crash, Euphrates, etc? I can’t remember. It seems like I’m always playing on Sawmill, Superstore, Khandor, Shipment, Shoothouse, Tank Factory, and the same few maps over and over again.

I’m not asking for any big update or curated selection of maps that would take any more than a few hours. I would just like for someone to go into this game and turn on all maps and all store bundles and then they never have to touch it again.

Puzzle: how do I arrange my Big Walk playlist?

I’ve finished the game and I’ve found a new puzzle; in what order do I arrange the soundtrack in my new playlist? aksfx released the soundtrack as a collection of singles/EPs, and I’m trying to make it cohesive. I noticed most songs include a time of day, so I started by putting those in order from 12:00am - 10:51pm. I put Menu Music at the beginning and Silent Gauntlet and Credits at the end, but I’m left with the following tracks

- Mic Select
- Big Walk Theme (Jumping Voices)

Where would you place each of these?

New player needing to be shown the ropes

I’ve played COD and Battlefield for 15-20 years, so I get FPS gameplay, and I treated BF as more tactical than most and got really immersed in the commander mode in BF4, but this game is a bit foreign to me. I’d really appreciate if someone could run the game with me, explaining the mechanics, roles, objectives, and whatever else I’m not getting. I really want to like this game, but anytime I hop in I’m just a bit confused on how the team is supposed to work and how to stay alive for longer
