But a tail is not usual...so you'll need to be able to see it.
So the tail bands may be a technical need.

I somehow think this would be chucked off the drawing board, but it's got it's own merits.

Game came in the mail today. Haven't played it yet though. Have to wait for boyfriend's mom to stop hogging the television.

Why did I think it was a November release?
