In case you’ve been wondering why there was no Game Releases post last week it’s because I was in transit. After a long flight from Larnaca airport taking me via Frankfurt I finally arrived yesterday to Los Angeles where the 2009 Electronics Entertainment Expo will take place from 2 4 June.

Anger, frustration, shock, sadness and shame.

I’ve read Shake Hands with the Devil by the Canadian Lt Colonel Romeo Dallaire. He was the military commander of the Force Command of the UN in Rwanda during the genocide in 1994. It is his testimony of  what his experience during the events that led to 800.000 people dying in 100 days.

This book will put your life in perspective.

I also recommend watching Hotel Rwanda which tells the story of a Rwandan hotel manager during the madness.
