This is Tim's most salient review ever!! It was probably Brandon's influence that kept him on topic so well.

Damn -- you hit Apple+left arrow on your Mac, and you can see that shit backwards. It really adds an additional layer to the interview at the end.

For those keeping score: here's what happened after the review.

I put three cones around him, as a small crowd of japanese girls formed. He kept dancing, and I announced KIKEN DESU. HAKUJIN GA DANSU SHITEIRU CHUU DESU. Which is sort of unnecessarily overkill, and pretty grammatically weird, but pleased them mightily. Then we stopped because the person we were waiting for (they were up in the don quijote) came down.

THE END



p.s. for those keeping score what's the score

Oh, well now it all makes sense.

Translation for the ignorant, please.

basically,

DANGER!

there's a white man all up in the middle of dancing here!

Also, please note that the number of industry responses is growing like a motherfucker. I hope to be done by tomorrow, after I get a Sega quote.

I really like the cross analysis involved with Brandon's clear and structured point of view overlayed onto Tim's reckless but playful opinion. Editted overall with Aderack's clear perspective, this review could possibly be insert credit's greatest work ever made.

At first I kept thinking that the lady was sinking "DONKEY, DONKEY HOTEL".

It took me a good couple of minutes to solve the puzzle.

If I hadn't wondered why the kana on the spinnylightpole seemed to read "DONKEY HOTAY" instead, I probably never would have figuted it out!

Anyway this review has definitely made up my mind about the game. Good work.
