Well, I've recently been focused on my gaming. Beat 3 games in the past week. I'm quite proud of that accomplishment. But I still have about 20-something games that are unfinished/unplayed in my collection. That number is going to grow before the end of the year with Dragon Age: Origins, Modern Warfare 2, and possibly Assassin's Creed II.
Recently Completed:
Uncharted 2: Among Theives (PS3)
Game of the year. Most definitely. No doubt about it.
If you're into shooters, action games, and/or adventure games; there is absolutely no reason you shouldn't have U2:AT in your collection. The game is just great. The animation, the characters, the voice-acting, the presentation (production is through the roof!!!), the cinematography, the gameplay, and the story...it is the complete package. Just go get the game if you haven't already. NOW!!!

Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction (PS3)
R&CF:ToD was a damn good game. But it wasn't as good as the PS2 installments. Mainly because the boss encounters weren't as challenging. The boss battles were quite easy, especially the final boss. Now I'll admit that could have been due to my weapons being high-leveled though. Nevertheless, it was worth my time and I had a good fun with it.

Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty (PS3)
R&CF:QfB is good. But it changes up the typical R&C formula. There is no Clank and the usage of guns mostly takes a backseat to the platforming and puzzle-solving. Now I'm not really complaining about that since I don't mind platforming and puzzle-solving. But in my opinion, the appeal of the R&C franchise is its weapons. So it was a tad bit disappointing that they weren't the focus. In the end though, it was worth the price of admission. The game served its purpose: to bridge the gap between Tools of Destruction and A Crack in Time.

On Deck:
Eternal Sonata (PS3)
While I'm waiting for Borderlands and Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time to arrive, I figured I would go through Eternal Sonata. I already played and beat the 360 version. The game was good, but it felt like something was missing by time the credits were rolling. So I'll see if the PS3 version's additions will make it feel more complete.
Recent Purchases:
Borderlands (PS3)
Can't wait to play Borderlands! Not concerned with the single-player campaign really. It's the multiplayer co-op I'm looking forward to. I have fond memories of playing Modern Warfare with Anthony (amlabella) and Andy (Thingol4), Crackdown with Max (AzelKosMos) and Andy, and recently I had a riot with Max and Andy when playing Uncharted 2. Borderlands is gonna bring some memorable moments. I can feel it in me bones!!!
Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time (PS3)
The R&C series is quality. So I'm damn sure ACiT will be good. Looking forward to playing it so I can see how things get wrapped up.
Well, that's the end of another blog. Hopefully everyone has been doing good. Take care of yourselves. Later peeps!
