So if we see a character in the background that isn't a standard background character you'd typically see in the show, is there a good chance that it's a character the animators snuck in as themselves?

Also, does my question make sense?

Neil and Bruce, thank you

Like a lot of people, I saw the trailer you guys aired at the VGAs, and I saw the original demo you guys put out with Joel and Ellie at the hotel. I was pumped for this game after those videos! My anticipation for this game even beat out my anticipation for Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time - the first iteration of my favorite game series in 8 years!

I was so excited for this game! I was convinced that the week I bought and played this game would be the best week of my summer. But then life happened.

In a nutshell, the week the game launched was the week before I put my dog, Miles, to sleep. The day after I beat the game (Monday, 6/17) was the day he was taken to the vet, and that was that. I was sobbing my heart out that whole weekend. The only times I wasn't were when I was sleeping, and when I was sitting in front of my television, holding a DualShock, while Miles was chilling in his chair in the corner of the living room.

Your game made that weekend go from unbearable to heart-wrenching. That may not sound like much, but it was enough to give me some peace while the hourglass was dripping ever faster. I can't express how much easier your game made that weekend. There were some parts that somewhat mirrored what was going on in my life, namely Gadget from "Boy's Diary", that forced me to take a breather, but those were also just plain beautiful moments that most games today simply can't create.

I'm never not going to associate you guys with my dog, but I think it's good to have something to keep him in my memories. I believe you only truly die when everyone else has forgotten about you, so Naughty Dog will always keep Miles alive for me when I'm playing your games. And I plan on playing your games for as long as you make them. I don't want you guys to stop, just like I don't want to forget about my best friend.

I've played you guys since Crash, and there's not a single game you guys and your fellow Naughty Dogs have made that I haven't played, and that will never change. Keep on doing what you guys do - it's fantastic!

Regards, MrJAPoe

PS: Give Pogo and Trumpet an extra pat from me :)

Thanks. Life goes on, though.
