You know, the game series that concerned parents love to hate, and point to as the downfall of our society, and the reason why their children hate them, and so on. Now, they are wrong, I don't think any sense able person wouldn't see that, but that's a discussion unto itself. I'm here to talk about the ( Read more... )
