The last week of Feb was a relatively quiet one. We had a few revelations, but it represented games steadily moving forward, which is a good segue to pointing out submissions for the R 18+ discussion paper in Australia closed on Sunday, hopefully with enough intelligent conversation and though-provoking subs to help this country's games industry equally move forward at a steady and mature pace.
Anyway, without further stalling for time (see if you can guess the origin of that quote), I give you the week that was the last week of February.
