5 differences between Danes and Swedes

by Gamer

Before I get accused of being racist and biased and other things, please note that I’m doing this post in a light hearted way – not meant to offend any Danes or Swedes :) If you want to do that, I invite you to read some Norwegian jokes (always told at the expense of Swedes and usually at the expense of Danes as well).

  • The titular ‘Hotel Dusk‘ is supposedly located somewhere just outside the city (yes, I reviewed this one too)
  • Of course we can’t forget L.A. Noire
