Personally, I'm going to wait for a complete/Game of the Year edition to be released - plus, Ubisoft games drop in price pretty quickly now.
I really liked the setting of Revelations (Constantinople was really captured well), but I agree, the overall gameplay wasn't as good as the previous games (the tower defense mini-game was kind of annoying).

The new Madden is looking pretty good. I've skipped the last three years but I feel it is my responsibility to guide Andrew Luck to his first Super Bowl victory.
I may even do some serious haggling and get a few former Colts that were assassinated in the off season as well.
I just started playing again a few weeks ago after a six month layoff. I finally have rung the upper and lower bell towers and have made it to Anor Londo.
I'm currently figuring out how to ascend weapons and am trying to figure out how to use boss souls to make weapons.
Blighttown is a motherfucker, to say the least. :evil:

I'm in Anor Londo now too. I'm basically just leveling up right now...running through with and helping people. Great spot to score a bunch of souls!
I've found that modifying and applying boss souls to weapons isnt as good as modding normal or other elite weapons. I'm heading the catacombs next so I'm ascending a Devine weapon now.
It's funny, my second time through, I'm almost at the same level at 1/4 of the time as my first run-through.
Yeah, Blightown is a bitch. This last time through, I got the Iaito sword (which is currently my weapon Iaito lightning +4) and more or less just ran for that second bonfire. Didn't even bother fighting....just ran for it! So much easier!
Back in December I vowed that I would get a Platinum Trophy (PS3 term for 100% achievements), in my next game before purchasing anything else. 170+ in-game hours of Skyrim later and I'm almost ready to buy a new game.

All of those are available for the Vita? Wow, I'm gonna have to blow the dust off of it and get to downloading!
those are all available on the PS3. You can transfer the download to the Vita and play on there. As of now, only 9 of those are available directly in the PSN Store to the Vita.
They are apparently going to be adding more, and Japan/Eu got a lot m0ar than the US.
Anyone got first thoughts on madden 13 for ps3. Is the voice command option available?
I have it for the 360. I've skipped the last two years and I'm quite impressed (although I've only had time to play a single game). The game looks great, sounds great, plays great. I'm still a little rusty, but by the 4th quarter everything was coming back to me.
The biggest change I've noticed in the game from 3 years ago is that the Indianapolis Colts now suck. :( But I'll be fixing that.
I don't have Kinect, so I can't comment on the voice controls. Everything I've read says the function sucks.
Phil Simms and Jim Nantz are surprisingly good (by far, the most amazing achievement in EA Sports history). :geek:

It was the highlight of the month to see that magazine in the mailbox as a kid.
Some of my favorite covers ...
Really? That's too bad
I liked the graphic-style and game engine, but I found the single-player campaign too short and too much focus has since been put on the multiplayer (all the DLC that's been planned and/or released has been for multiplayer with no indication of any single-player DLC ever coming to fruition). While I found the multiplayer enjoyable, I found it takes way too long to level up and earn any decent weapons.
I'm actually looking forward to Assassin's Creed III the most this fall: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNgh5WiMbBM

Yeah, that's actually a smart move because it looks like there will be lots of DLC: http://kotaku.com/5928119/sounds-lik...g-a-ton-of-dlc
Personally, I'm going to wait for a complete/Game of the Year edition to be released - plus, Ubisoft games drop in price pretty quickly now.
I really liked the setting of Revelations (Constantinople was really captured well), but I agree, the overall gameplay wasn't as good as the previous games (the tower defense mini-game was kind of annoying).

Just busy trying to wrap everything up at work before the holiday, today was pretty quiet...first chance I've had to breathe all week
