Abbreviations. - retrolinkx - 03-12-2018
So I've been thinking recently about abbreviation. in game names and what comes to mind when someone posts one.
For example, if I were to say "I was playing AC" last night, you'd probably think Assassin's Creed or Animal Crossing but not Armored Core. So I was thinking of having a thread of listing off abbreviations and what they mean to you specifically.
It's not really a forum game so I didn't really want to put it there, and while it's vaguely related to a vidya I thought it'd be fine here.
Add some of your own if you want, some you might get confused by.

Sorry if this is kind of spammy, but it's just a bit interesting and I'd like to see what people think of when they see things like that.

If I skipped some abreviations is because they don't have a specific meaning to me.
