I'm not anal retentive or anything (yeah, right), but shouldn't that have a second 'i' in there?

Me neither...just wish you hadn't mentioned it...took me months to learn to live with it :-5

I saw and retracted my statement immediately. My ignorance and lack of observation is apparent.

The modern world requires an international perspective. Billard is French for billiards.

That made me laugh, Snooze. And I think I just dislodged a stitch

If that's true, which googling the word doesn't prove, the rest of the games section should be in French as well.

I expect if you type billiards into http://translate.google.com/translate_t?langpair=en|fr you'll get a better sense of the matter.

What's wrong with a French game keeping its title while translating its text into English for English game sites? When English games go the other way into French I'm sure quite a few of them do that, the game name is as much for product recognition as for meaning.

Why French ?

Are we in the business of discriminating against oh say...Haitian games ?

Is that what were doing here, oppressing the 3rd world's rights to be heard ?
