Morning Discussion

Black & White allowed players to synchronise their in-game weather with the world outside their window but on this sweltering hot and muggy day, my heat-muddled mind is crying out for a game that'll do the exact opposite.

I want to be playing a game which shakes a fine dusting of snow over everything in summer, turning lakes to ice and blasting icy winds through my speakers from left to right. "Lawks-a-larky!" the comical British-y NPCs would exclaim. "It's colder than a witch's tit and no mistake!" Yes, yes I feel cooler and more at ease just thinking about it.

Please, video games. Yes, it's pointless, expensive, impractical and derision-worthy but I need this. You remember all that fun we had together? We're friends, yeah? Please?
