...are you serious? The first 2 reviews I've seen are 9.5 and 10. It's looking pretty sweet.

Also looking pretty sweet is Uncharted, for which I have played the demo 4 times and still can't get over how smooth and lifelike the animations are. The way Drake reacts to the environment is brilliant. Aside from that, it's like ND took the shooting from RE4, the climbing/platforming from PoP, threw in some melee combat and tweaked the hell out of all of it until it was perfect and seamless.

Assassin's creed has been getting trashed since E3. Even EGM isn't happy with the newest version they've seen. I doubt they'll make anymore changes, which sucks, cause it could've been a badass game!

I gave Kym Rock Band for Xbox 360 for Christmas.

It freakin' rocks.

But the guitar controller had the strum bar issue, and we're waiting for the replacement to come in the mail. In the meantime I grabbed a different guitar controller from Best Buy that I'll return when the replacement comes in. \m/

Oh god Rock Band is the most fun thing ever. I can go 5 hours straight on it and not even notice.

Christmas has been good to my PS3. Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank, and Rock Band.

Whoever says the PS3 has no games is dumb and has no idea what they are talking about.

Then again my Playstation collects dust even when I'm using it because goddamn that thing is like a dust magnet.
