Most French beaches have those sideways benches, as they were originally for watching topless women. Or at least that sounds right.

Congrats Thomas, you handeled yourself well with 2 sharks, That said, this game...idklol. I liked some of the art, and in another world I see it's function. Jeff should have played the guy on another machine, would have served them right, and to be honest they may have faced the challenge.

Il est midi. C'est l'heure de dejeuner. Qu'est-ce qu'il y a a manger? Il y a saucisse, sans doute.

Congrats, you're old if you get that reference. Also that lady pours about twice as much wine in that cup as she should be, she should really take better care of herself.

This is 3art5me.

Not having a go at the sort of games you Quick Look, but you know... Sniper Elite: Nazi Zombie Army is out today as well and for the price it's actually not a bad game.

In Tokyo you are only allowed to smoke inside or standing still in special smoking zones.

@ma_rc_01: Oh, mon ami, tu serais très surpris de voir le triste état de l'orthographe en France... Je peux l'affirmer en tant que professeur de lettres enseignant auprès des adolescents et des adultes. Mais cela fait toujours plaisir de voir la langue de Molière présente dans les commentaires de Giantbomb. Salut amical au Québec depuis la France !!!

I'm not sure what the point of this Quick Look was.

I suppose this is what it must be like for people who enjoy sports games to watch GB Quick Looks.

Even with my middling grasp of french. This game is weird and some of those question made little sense. I understood the words but the concept and structure of the sentence was weird.

Gotta love those accents on "Vînny" and "Jéff"! But in french, you usually don't apply any accent when double consonants follow vowels. So you would write 'Vinny' and 'Jeff' as in american.

Nice try, and very funny too...

Keep up the good work ! Great Staff and great site !

Best wishes from France with 'baguettes et camembert'.

Ps : Plus, FYI, since 1991, customers aren't allowed to smoke in bar/restaurants/offices/stations and so on... Yeah, not so much fun, anymore... not so frenchy, either.

By the way, great job translating, Thomas !

I would actually be way into a game doing exactly this if it wasn't hampered by the muddy graphics. It's hard to get immersed when the jank of the game's fidelity takes me out.

Just like how French fries are actually Belgian, huh? :P

I'm not going to argue what is and isn't a game, but it makes me sad that this got right on steam, and obvious, great games are forced into greenlight. also, this is one of the best quick looks, ever.

Tale of Tales (the same guys from The Path) is a Belgian studio.

This... game looks like it would be fairly interesting to mess around with for an hour or so if it were free, but I can't really see it being worth 10 bucks.

Although my brain tells me I shouldn't be, I can't help but feel a little bit offended by this QL. And I'm not even french. As others have said though, congrats to Thomas.
