We have entered the final month of the SMP, and this weekend brings us the last major (read: Wide) release selected. 36 players are banking on Bullet Train to fill the spot created by the tankjob that is DC League of Super-Pets. The critics are even less impressed than they were for DC Pets, so who knows what this weekend holds. I’m just going to go and sit back to enjoy the bright flashes and loud bangs.
