This is my response to the news that Avi Arad will be producing an Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune film.
Immediately after playing Uncharted for the first time, I had always thought that Nathan Drake more or less looked like, and sounded exactly like Joe Flanigan.  It looks like I’m not the only one who thinks this.  Joe [...]

(Note: I was originally going to call this post “Gentleman, start your engines” but due to equality issues and the phrase having nothing to do with trophies, it was scrapped.  That’s your dose of trivia for the day!)
Well, enough games are now out there that have trophy support.  First I had a ‘blast’ on Super [...]

I suppose that this post has as much to do about money as it does about there being loads of games out there, but not having enough time to play them!  Anyhow, I might as well recount from the beginning.  I got my PS3 for Christmas 2007 and played on Assassin’s Creed.  A lot.  My [...]

Yes, perhaps ‘Haze‘ is an apt name for such a game.  Wikipedia defines haze as:
…traditionally an atmospheric phenomenon where dust, smoke and other dry particles obscure the clarity of the sky.

Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune is amazing- I’ve been playing it quite heavily over the past weekend, and it just rocks my socks. At first I wasn’t so sure about the plaudits of best ever graphics and cracking gameplay, but it’s true. Looks like everyone else agrees that it is awesome.

Back when the PS3 launched, I practically screamed at Sony’s stupidity. Why price the damn thing out of the reach of most consumers? It meant that people like me, Joe Consumer, could not get a piece of the next-gen gaming action… at least not on the PS3 anyway. One year later, look [...]

More PS3 Gaming- In addition to being captivated by Locoroco Cocoreccho, Super Rub a Dub is a lot of fun as well. Again, excellent value for two small downloadable games. Anyhow, after having played heavy amounts of Assassin’s Creed since I got my PS3, my other new favourites are Resistance: Fall of Man [...]
