Game purchases: October 09

Kind of a slow month this year... but November is shaping up to be pretty epic.

Fallout 3: Game Of The Year Edition - You guys know how buggy the original game was, right? Well, the dudes at Bethesda somehow made this "improved" version even worse, which is quite something. I mean, you'd have to have to try pretty hard to make a game more buggy than Fallout 3. In addition to the frequent crashes, the game now suffers from serious lags as well as the inability to load your game half of the time. After getting the short end of the stick and DLCs 9 months later than the other versions, this is what we get. To make things even worse, some PS3 versions aren't compatible with the original game saves. I couldn't load my 400+ hours file and had to start over. Yayz.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves - One of the best games I've played this year, improved and way more polished than its predecessor. Drake is still a giant douche, but that's kind of what makes him great. The multiplayer is F-U-N! It plays just like the campaign, meaning it's not just your average shooter multiplayer. There's also some platforming and melee combat elements in it, which you can use to your advantage.

By the way, anyone go trick-or-treating yesterday? I did and got lots of candies.
