Hi Jake,
Since I don't play video games, this isn't a comment on your review – except that it looks extraordinarily thorough. I just wanted to tell you about something that I saw while I was coming in to work this morning in Canada's national capital (the one that isn't Toronto).
I was standing at a major intersection when a guy came screaming down the hill that leads from Parliament on roller blades – doing the whole power skate in a main traffic lane. He was about 55 years old wearing shorts on the bottom, a dress shirt and tie on top, and a helmet. He was carrying a briefcase and a hockey stick and was doing some kind of stick-handling routine as he went smoking past me. I wondered if the stick would also be useful for pushing politicians out of the way.
Anyway, it was an odd sight, even for hockey-crazy Canada. Wish I could have taken a picture to send to your blog.
Keep up the good work! CM
