I’ve waited a year and some change for the day that I could make aSteely Dan referenceon Destructoid — today, my friends, is that day. Oh, and in other news, the indie wonderFezhas finally been rated by the ESRB, so we can expect to awesomely shift planes like we were back in theSuper FX eraat some point in the near future.

Since the game is rated, instead of “sometime nebulously in 2012,” we most likely have an “Early 2012” target. Am I alone in thinking that this is going to be one of the best games this year? Or has the wait been so long that you don’t care anymore?
