So I made a couple of jokes at the expense of the new Sonic trailer this week and I started to feel bad about it.

But why stop there? If games can keep you from climbing a clock tower and expressing your inner pain in the form of
Some people say you can have too much of a good thing, but we say they can bugger right off. A cake is good, right? But are two cakes bad? No, theyre just more cake, and we like cake so well take all we can get. Om nom nom.
