Blitz mentality
The Tube is running again for the most part. Buses are out and about. And then there's this statement from the mayor of London:
In the days that follow look at our airports, look at our sea ports and look at our railway stations and, even after your cowardly attack, you will see that people from the rest of Britain, people from around the world will arrive in London to become Londoners and to fulfil their dreams and achieve their potential.
They choose to come to London, as so many have come before because they come to be free, they come to live the life they choose, they come to be able to be themselves.
Now if only housing prices in London weren't so amazingly insane—I wouldn't mind moving to London to be myself.1 But changing my monthly mortgage payment for weekly rent? Don't think I can do that quite yet, alas.
On the other hand, I can probably afford a video game or two. The new issue of Play magazine has a huge spread on Shadow of the Colossus. I am a huge fan of Ico—the first game put out by this development team. So I'm a understandably curious as to what they can do four years later with another title. The screenshots and video I've seen so far have been amazing.
