    There are only two things that are worth getting horizontal over in life: having sex, and riding those motorcycles from Akira. If the game doesn't let me be able to ride those things, then I ain't buyin it. Those were just about the sweetest pieces of personal hardware I've ever seen on the big screen, and that's saying alot considering stuff like Major Kusanagi's inviso-suit-thingy and the various flavors of body armor that pops up consistenly in anime. They just looked so freakin cool!
