Review: Alien Syndrome (PSP)

First off, let me apologize for this ridiculously late review. It seems the U.S. Air Force doesn’t quite share in the importance of Sega Nerds that we do as they sent me to South Korea for the last several weeks. I can’t reveal what I did there since it’s super secret Air Force stuff, but […]
