I just finished Uncharted: Drake's Fortune today. Anybody ever played it? It's fun, but clunky and with a kind of lame plot twist. Still, has a great cast of characters.

I been playing a lot of this lately


1. convenient/doesn't eat up too much time
2. not too much of a strain on my crappy computer
3. keeps mouse accuracy/hand-eye coordination up
4. actually really fun despite the fact that I occasionally get sick of it since the whole thing is so...anime heavy.

From what's been released so far, the Xbox One is just disappointing.
It basically removes most of the reasons I like console gaming.  With the 360 I can buy used games dirt cheap, and when I finish them I can give the disk to one of my brothers and they can play it.  If I want it back no worries, just put the game in and it works fine.

Years later if I want to play one of my old games just start the console and it'll work.  The multiplayer may disappear, but the single player games will play fine.  When they take the Xbox One servers offline what happens?  Forced obsolescence?  Will they release a patch so the console doesn't require the 24 hour check in?  Just... icky.

I've got a reasonably decent computer, but I have to reboot into Windows to play most games (I did do this for Skyrim).  With Valve building their linux-based SteamBox maaybe eventually I won't have to.
Sony has been somewhat quiet about the PS4, here's hoping they don't follow the same dumb path.

I completely agree with you three. Sean's building a gaming PC atm, that should serve most our next-gen needs. Hopefully quite a few titles will go cross gen, for example games like Dragon Age with a save import.

I don't really play video games, they can only hold my attention for about 30 minutes at a time and also I usually hate them, but my sister begged me to play Mass Effect so I started that.

Mass Effect is soo good. Set it to easy if you're a noob. Also, the second one is the best. At least go through the first on casual so you can there. In the third game, there's a "story" mode for super-noobs so youkill everybody in a shot or w/e.

Don't forget E3 coming up soon, i'm sure Microsoft will do their best to impress there.

Good point there. E3 is where it all happens. There's supposedly 15 Xbox One exclusive launch titles, and I hear Sony are showing up to 40 games.

I'm just as excited for EA's conference a day before E3, because Dragon Age III will finally be shown! Probably some other titles as well.
