It definitely takes a toll on the body. Although, I suffered more from the motion sickness issue.

Wow. I can barely write one haiku, let alone this many.
“Will it be the one?”–So far the movie adaptations of games have let us down. Well, I liked Jumanji (with Robin Williams). And now they’re remaking it.

I thought Jumanji was a book first, but a game would be a blast. Great sandbox game if you put the effort in. I haven’t seen Assassin’s Creed, so I can’t judge that. Do we count Wreck-It-Ralph?
