    Wouldn’t it just start over when it hit the max? Kinda like Ghandi being so peaceful he becomes a genocidal nutcase in Civilization?

      Yes, although isn’t that an urban legend? Pretty sure I read that it was.

        It was acknowledged as a bug by a dev. The value went from 0 to 255 and then started over. So 256 becomes 0. It’s basically a feature now.

            Thing is, it did happen in the earlier games and I doubt Sid programmed all the games himself. They just put his sexy face on them like the Nintendo Quality Control stamp.
