As a resident of Iceland (a kind of Real-life ice level) I can say that everything stated in this article is 100% fact checked and true.

Thanks Paul-Ry-The-Science-Guy, for a both factual and sarcastic article.

Buuut..."and that one planet in Mass Effect". There are like 10+ ice planets in Mass Effect. Also, where's Hoth? It's been done to death in virtual form, yet no inclusion on the list?

I'm positively snow-blinded by the science of this article!

The graphs convinced me (I play a lot of Final Fantasy, so statistics make me all funny inside).

You completely neglected the pokemon ice levels Ryan, now I am sad; especially when you have those monstrous killing machines... the penguins mentioned. But other than that excellent article.

Ice levels are also 12% more difficult to traverse due to the slippery slopes leading to bottomless pits.
