Quotes:

[first lines]
Ben: [narrating] Whenever I smell asphalt, I think of Maureen. That's the last sensation I had before I blacked out; that thick smell of asphalt. She said she'd fix my bike. Free. No strings attached. I shoulda've known then that things were never that simple. Yeah, when I think of Maureen, I think of two things: asphalt... and trouble.

Perfect Game! Fun to play and a killer soundtrack by the Gone Jackals. I went right out and bought it. The voices were done well except for Maurice. It was funny, and had a lot of action too. The ending is still fun to play over and over.
