                      Way to make an entrance, American is one interesting character. 
                      He belongs back in the gaming community, and Alice will 
                      sure to make me stay up long past my bedtime. The demented 
                      outlook on wonderland is one that has been in the mind of 
                      many a stoner. (and other various chemicals) I have been 
                      waiting for a game to appear with such dementia, for the 
                      futuristic cyborg blood sports are becoming somewhat old. 
                      A nice twist was needed. I will take gothic horror over 
                      bizarre aliens any day. Wrapping up such a dark angle around 
                      timeless children&#146;s literature, hints of irony and 
                      mockery of society's pristine view of such tales. With American's 
                      past accomplishments, this is sure to not disappoint</font></font></p>
