I especially appreciate Scalzo’s attention to “Balancing games the public wants, games that are critically acclaimed and family-friendly titles…”

I also wanted to say hey to a fellow Rochester native. Small world huh?

And so sorry about the spelling, I hate it when people get mine wrong. I’ll correct it momentarily.
