Quotes (from this video)
  • If it plays as well as it looks, this is going to be spectacular.
  • I really like these. Actually, I've been dabbling in game design. This is the game I was thinking on designing.
  • This looks juicy. Looks very very juicy.
  • This is very different than a Forlone Hope that we looked at, right?
  • It's got a number three in the bottom. So maybe each one of the the maps and missions have each one of the missions have a little bit of a different map to it.
