Hey Steve,

You mentioned in your podcast that you'd love to try FIFA Street, but expressed a belief that it isn't out in the US. It is, in fact, available in the US, but the reviews weren't all that great. So if you really do want to try it, you should be able to buy it or order it from any of the usual suspects.

Keep up the good work!
