Bravo! Makes me wish I had a 3ds

To go a little deeper on this, now that I'm properly awake, I think this is a continuation of the successful style you displayed in your YS review, WQ. You identify very quickly what makes Icarus special for you, which is that it captures that sense of old-school challenge. Your review is focused around showing this and you manage to. You also manage to entice me with those descriptions. You're doing a lot of things right with your writing these days. I'm enjoying the newfound maturity.

Thanks, Zipp. I'm finding that just being more personal with my style is both a lot easier and sounds a lot better when I'm trying to convey my thoughts. Not sure how long it'll continue with it, though I hope I can and still vary it enough to where the style doesn't somehow grow old. But, I also know it's dependent on the game how I ultimately end up writing about it.

Absolutely. I'd agree that you've been choosing good games for yourself. That in itself is a good tactic, if you have the leeway to do it.
