Proulx played a  totally original game that is unlike any other game seen or heard of before! Ell was proud of an achievement he got! Remember folks, it's better for the wrist.

Freaky gets an N+ at GenXbox for talking about Ten rooms and ten seconds without making ten comparisons to broforce.  Elroy dips into his NES memories for a game that has a serious connection to the city… and makes a splash with his offering!
