Hmmm, my perfect steak is a rare or blue sirloin in a calvados sauce.

Just reading today's Star on Sunday, the games page with a preview of Shadow (decent enough article, even if it does seem to be ripped out of this month's Nintendo Magazine), but one wee paragraph sticks out:

Sega have equipped one of the cutest game characters ever with an array of weapons.

Shadow. Cute.

Interesting.

Calling Shadow cute is like calling a plank of wood a dog.
Maybe the writer couldn't spell angst or mysogonist.

More likely the writer thought Shadow was Sonic. Which is worse?

I think that's a skimpy paragraph.

Make it three words to a line and you have what can scientifically be called a paragraph.

On the other hand, if he was actually referring to Shadow, it would indicate that he's not nearly as hard-core-to-the-extreme-bitches(!) at first sight as SEGA intended him to be. Of course this almost certainly is not the case, and said columnist is probably a blathering idiot, but a man can dream.

It's... it's... I don't know what it is. Shadow with his muzzle removed, or maybe he wrenched it off in angst.

NO.

That picture isn't cute (even if it's nicely drawn and colored), it's freaky. Like "60's-hippie-induced-gettin'-high-"Help-Black-hedgehog's-gonna-eat-me" freaky.
