The Deleted Scenes - The Ocean is a Highway
Last year, when my wife and I took a vacation in Hawaii, one of the first things we did was an ocean kayaking tour of coastal waters and small islands off the shore from Honolulu. It was a lot of fun, though fairly strenuous. And it was our first time ever using any kind of kayak. Getting in and out of the boat was funny, and pulled up some really old video game memories. My dad and I used to play World War II first-person shooters, like Medal of Honor. There would always be a D-Day invasion level, with a cutscene where you’re on one of the landing craft, bobbing roughly toward the beach, and then when you land, commanders would yell “Go! Go! Get off the boat!”, and at the point the cutscene ended and you were playing.
