Possible legit "Shovelware" version of Grand Theft Auto?
I'll allow it.
Aye, the system is growing on me as well. I thought Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition kicked ass. I don't think I could go back to a regular controller for that game. I think they perfected the game on the Wii.
oh, try explaining to a French person that being "the shit" is good, but being "shit" is bad. That's a lot of fun.
