Clothes Makes the Player. So, this week, Tim takes a look at My Dress-up Darling, and it would have been fantastic.... if not for those pet peeves, man. Still, it's a great show despite the little hurdles, so step right up. Next week is gonna be second opinion week. I'm also going to be off on vacation, so Tim'll handle the next two updates in my place. See you all then. -Stig Høgset.
