    Yeah, I gotta finish up Dark Souls before I get Uncharted 3. F'n game is so damn hard!!! Good game, but maddening at times! :evil: :D
    I'm in the same boat. Dark Souls has consumed my soul (or at least my free time). :D

    But I did kill my first dragon last night! :thumbup:

    So far it's my game of the year ... but that will most likely change come 11/11/11. :ugeek:

    I tried playing the first game, Demon Souls, was playing for maybe an hour, died at some point and got respawned way back near the start of it all and said fuck that and didn't play it again.

    I have Skyrim and Assassin's Creed Revelations pre-ordered. Can't wait for them. I actually wanted to wait to get Skyrim in a game-of-the-year bundle with downloadable content because they always do that but when I got to the store to trade in games, I had so much store credit that I forgot that was the plan and got it. :lol:

    Yeah, that game is brilliant. While there are times I want to throw my controller across the room, the complexity, the depth, and the....mystery of this game keeps me coming back!
    Not sure how far you are in it yet, but once you get the ability to join other (or have people join your) world, it makes those bosses a whole hell of a lot easier!

    I told a buddy about this game and how great it was. He ran out and bought it. He played it for about 3 hours and said "fuck that!". Then again, he's more of the instant satisfaction gamer...the Call of Duty type who doesn't really want to spend the time or effort...or thinking, in order to succeed.
    For me, dying 15 times in a row, losing thousands of souls in the process is beyond maddening!!! BUT, once you finally slow down, examine and observe your enemies before trying to slash your way through, it makes getting to that next bonfire that much greater!! :D
    Without a doubt, the best game of the year (so far).

    No information on this at all. Just like the last one, didn't know where it was until the trailer came out. Wow, that was 4 years ago!

    Some other fans have been hoping for London or Vancouver. I would love to see Vancouver / Seattle, there's so many great places in and around the Lower Mainland, can even take a ferry ride to the island.

    I remember playing Midtown Madness in Paris, that was a great city to play in.

    Yeah, I heard Chicago in the 20s-30s in the middle of prohibition, Al Capone/gangster times.
    But...that was a long time ago.

    GRAND THEFT AUTO 5!!!!

    YES!!! one of the only two games that matter to me. GTA series, and racing sims. The rumors are saying its going to be washington DC because the 5 logo clearly represents a $5 bill. id say San Andreas.
