If there's one article on Kotaku that should be read at all this year, it is this one, for sure.

Fantastic piece. As someone from Seattle I'm mixed on how Infamous treated my hometown. On the one hand, it was neat looking for things I recognized (especially Stranger ads), I felt that it presented a superficial look into local problems such as our historical treatment of the natives and our overly abusive police…

Without hyperbole, this is the greatest article I've ever read on a site in this network. An honest point of view, with no sideskirting or avoidance of the realities of the topic at hand, is a rare thing much valued. Thank you for this.
