I beg every developer here to think global !<\/p>\n

Please, WASD keys are not funny on a non qwerty keyboard ! There’s a number of games I cannot rate because I cannot play to them because of the WASD choice.<\/p>\n

Thank you all for your understanding !<\/p>","time":"December 21st, 2010 2:59 pm","title":"Please, please, no WASD anymore, please !"}
