Congrats on going gold!…. I think…
I just recently purchased this game. I have had alot of fun with this game, not only does it have really good graphics, but it also is fun and challenging. Most newer games just rely on graphics now, and then the game ends up turning out really shitty…lol…But i’m glad to see that there are still some people out there who want the game to play good before it looks good…Keep up the good work guys!
