Random Spoiler Discussion
 
Rather than starting a thread dedicated to one spoiler topic, I think this thread can evolve as we learn new info.

Anyway, the particular subject I wanted to discuss was about "Boils Booty." Look at "Gameplay Footage #4" in this link if you haven't already...

http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/adventu...tle/media.html

So, did they change the name of "Blisterz Booty" to "Boils Booty?" Or is there another member of the "Booty" family? What do you kids think?

I think both are entirely possible. Blisterz might indeed have become Boils - in fact, Unkle TurkeyToes hasn't even made it into the game, so we know things do change.

It could have changed to Boils, but Gamespot is known to get their info a bit confused sometimes. Maybe it changed, but I really don't know. I guess we'll just have to wait and see if OWI says anything about it being changed.

Either way, we get the idea that Mr. Booty has a nasty rump. :p

My vibe is that they wouldn't change the name after they had advertised it so widely - I mean a name change is a fairly minor thing so why not just leave it the same? So it may well be a brother. That could add some humour to the game also, some fraternal competition.

this isn't blisterz, the clothing is different
it is another booty according to me, one of the numerous bosses
and he might be pissed off because his brother is in jail

Wil 12-09-2004 12:30 PM

That's not a Booty at all, he refers to himself and Boilz Booty separately, even saying he doesn't want to be locked away with him again. Again, huh?

Esus 12-09-2004 01:23 PM

Definately Boils is a different person, as Stranger clarifies. Is it just me or does he grab his arse whilst running from the balcony?

Nate 12-09-2004 01:34 PM

The question is whether both Booty brother's are in jail, or has Blisters had his name changed to Boils?

In addition to my previous post, don't forget that changing the name will mean changing the opening FMV we've already seen cos (if I remember correctly) his name appears the wanted poster. That's plenty of work for a name change.

On the other hand, arse-boils are grosser and odder than arse-blisters so they may have changed the name. Though I question what you would have to be doing to get a blister on your rump.

Well, we know from the movie that outlaws don't like sharing a jail-cell with Mr. Booty. :p

Now it all makes sense

We now know the truth.
