ugh, FINALLY had some time this last week to dust off the PS3.   Beat the campaigns for both MW3 and Black Ops.   Have Uncharted 3 and RDR to unwrap next.    Been nice to take out some aggression.   :chainsaw:

I'm just about done with Uncharted 2. Great game, fresh take. These graphics, though. Holy crap. These graphics.

uncharted 3's graphics are better than 2, but 2's gameplay is better than 3. 

what a rough ridin' paradox.  imo?

The graphics are better??  :excited: That's a shame about the gameplay; 2 has been really fun. I'll still probably buy 3, though.

i'd like to go on record as being an owner of two of the terrible games they mentioned in the article- pac man and e.t.

i can still hear the stupid pac man sound effects

also, i was young and just thought that et was really hard.  didn't know that it didn't actually work.

omg, et  :lol:

Quote from: wikipedia
Negotiations to secure the rights to make the game ended in late July 1982, giving Warshaw only five weeks to develop the game in time for the 1982 Christmas season.

Uncharted 3.   LOL, I did the Target 2 for $20 credit trade in deal today (trading in 2 PS2 games), got 1 copy of Uncharted 3 for $10 AFTER COUPON.  Traded in 2 copies of  Uncharted 3 AND mw3  at Best Buy where all week you get 50% extra credit, so for MW3 I got $36 and for each UC3 I got $27.   aLSO TOOK BLACK OPS FOR $27.    :kstategrad:

I'll go back Saturday and trade in 2 more games and get another copy of UC3 for $10 to play or maybe trade in and wait on UC3.

I'm about half way through Mass Effect 3. Good so far. I kind of wonder just how bad the supposed bad ending is.
Pretty bad.

Finished it last weekend. I don't disagree with this. I don't even mind the catalyst story. Whatever. It's the lack of thought and polish that went into it. For such a thoughtful and intensive game, they just said eff it and threw something up there. Plot holes galore. But at least hint to what the catalyst is. Set it up a little.

Outside of that, it's a very good game.

Agree, there was very little closure. Hopefully the DLC (free) explains some of it.

Bored during dead week, got excited for football season, so I created the 2012 q@tz football roster on NCAA 12.

I would like to buy it, but I'll either a.) Waste too much time playing it, b.) Get bored and be mad that I wasted money on it and never played it, or c.) Never play it because I don't have enough time.

I didn't even bother trying to play launch day. Still kinda shitty you have to rely on the servers being up to play single player.

Does anybody else watch "Angry Video Game Nerd" vids?  They're a bit cheesy, but man, I've lol'd so hard at a few of them.
