Feeling marginally better today, though I did go and have a long nap in the middle of the day. That helped somewhat. Another good night's sleep tonight will probably help even more, so I should probably go and do that very soon.
I've been enjoying Cruis'n Blast today, though. I wasn't sure what to expect, because I distinctly remember games magazines over here absolutely hating the original Cruis'n games back in the N64 era, but it seems a lot of people (Americans, anyway) look back rather fondly on them today.
Cruis'n Blast, though, is absolutely great; it's a shot of pure old-school arcade racer adrenaline that feels like it's just stepped out of a time warp from 2010. It's got ridiculously cheesy music that would make Daytona USA proud, it's got insane physics and stunts, it's got enough speed to make F-Zero blush and it's just a ton of fun to play.
I feel like it's one of those games you might be able to "beat" quite easily, but it's also one that you can easily come back to any time you just want a sugar rush in gaming form. It's an absolute delight, and I hope I can convince some people to try it in split-screen multiplayer at some point in the near future!

Now I'm Cruis'n off to bed.
