"Irony Alert" doesn't quite fit the bill on this one!

Living in the midwest, sometimes I go a little crazy thinking I'm the only one for whom "they hate our freedom" is not a sufficient explanation for why people would be willing to blow themselves (and others) up. I know the game won't change how media folks do their business; they've had too much success with fear-mongering, but at least it lets rational, thinking people know they're not alone in thinking that all this is a little insane. Also, I was impressed by your identification of Wii as being "the only true next-gen console." I'm a big fan of what Nintendo's doing, and I was impressed that you would pay respects to that despite the fact that the game you're promoting is coming out for one of their competitors. When the creator of the Katamari games said he wasn't interested in the Wii, I took it as a sign that he was more or less a Sony shill. Nice to see you're loyal to your vision and what genuinely interests you. Anyway, sorry about the long comment. Just wanting to give some positive feedback. Good luck with everything. I hope Bad Day LA does everything you hope it will. Hey, I just wanted to thank you for making this game.

I wish more people would. Im personally in love with the quote "When you let people do whatever they want, you get Woodstock. When you let governments do whatever they want, you get Auschwitz." How true that is. Thanks for talking about this American. I wish more people would. Im personally in love with the quote
