It reminds me of the scene in the first film:
"He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. His parents are probably idiots too. Lorraine, if you ever have a kid that acts that way I'll disown you."
Depends if Edna keeps chirping about time travel. I doubt Beauregard lives long in 1931 anyhow.

do we know if he's Bufords brother? I agree BTW buford wouldnt run a saloon.

I see no reason why Beauregard can't be Buford's father. If we accept that he's the same Beauregard as the one from TAS, he'd probably be about old enough.

Nope, it was just assumption by me. His relationship to Buford wasn't mentioned by the developers in the commentary. But bttf4444 is right, he could be Buford's father if it's the same Beauregard as the animated series.

There's a lot of interesting maybes in the game in terms of relatives of the characters. There's a Delores Miskin that's hanging in the bar in 1875 who bears a striking similarity to Marty's grandmother Silvia. It's probably Marty's great-great grandmother (or great-great-great grandmother), but it's not stated.

could it not be Marty's great-grandmother as well? She does show up in the 'history of hill valley' that comes with the game but it's not stated if she has a relation. Trixie is canadian but you could argue that they left hill valley and came back. Mind you Trixie seemed to have trouble getting American citizenship and you'd think that would be easier with American parents.

The one criticism of the show (well actually there's many) is that whenever they go, the Villain is a tannen, going back to the Tannensaurus. You could blame the films, all 3 have the same personalities but different surroundings. And as the films show, Biff isn't ALL bad. In the good timeline, george and lorraine do keep him around and Biff does seem to get humble in that timeline. He does get smarter and wiser over the years; he's clearly dense at age 18 but age 48 he doesn't have any trademark stupid lines and money alone would not accomplish what he did in the Biffhoric timeline, you'd need some brains. He does seem wise age 78 (at some point between 1955 and 2015, he's figured out 'Make like a tree and get out of here' does not make sense).

Trixie. What I've adored most about her is that GREAT accent while she speaks! Also, she's hot!

I like this role quite a bit, seems to be in the the MCFLY most like Marty; Seamus is strong-willed, but Willie seems to be more assertice.

I quite like Willie too. I'm glad that they added him to the game (and super glad they got Michael J Fox to do the role ). We got to see him as a baby in Back to the Future III (and the game even commented on the fact which he peed on Marty, which was really great. I love the game's many references to the films), but it was great to see him as a grown man. I'm not sure if I'd say he was like Marty though (I couldn't see Marty refusing to let his children marry someone based on nationality, although admittedly the 1930's were a very different time).

Yeah one of the greatest Bttf lines and one of the greatest telltale lines ever. ''That was great grandpa Willie.. He peed on me when he was a baby''

I realize this is slightly off topic but since we were talking about the Tannens earlier I wanted to mention a couple of things. First, I would love to meet the women who keep sleeping with these guys (especially Mad Dog), second, why are there no girl Tannens? Every new generation of Tannen is Male. It's like they have some sort of genetic defect that inhibits their production of X Chromosome sperm. Even in the Tannen Mob Rule Timeline, Biff had two siblings, both brothers.

Those extra siblings were the only of the siblings we meet. As much as they refuse to admit it, many women are attracted to jerks and bad boys. Griff even has one in his gang. We did kind of meet Gertrude tannen (Kids mother) in part II. There was a discussion whether she's Bufords daughter or daughter in law.

There was also a mention of a Tiff Tannen (Edna called out "Tiff Tannen!" and told her she'd call her father in 1986 at the beginning of the game). According to the commentary, Citizen Brown Jennifer was originally supposed to be Tiff Tannen, but they took all of Tiff's attributes and put them into the alternate Jen instead.
