Word is there’s quite a lot of influenza going on out there, which means some of you might be grateful for some cheap indoor diversions.

In retro news, I’ve made a big cake with a 25 on it for Ape Escape<\/strong>, the first game to explicitly require a DualShock controller.

Using the right stick to swing our weapons was…way less intuitive than just pressing a button.<\/p>\n
