I'm not as plugged into ANYTHING as I used to be. Dang, getting old just slows you the heck DOWN! Next thing I'll be plugged in to - life support machines.

I used to get collector's editions from time to time, but I never displayed any of the swag - no matter how cool, and it just wound up in a closet and eventually in the bin. (I still have my Fallout 3 lunch-box edition though because everything fits neatly in its box. :P) I'm glad they exist for tho...

thanks for the impressions argyle/phase. I added a couple of things to my wishlist. I finished up Uncharted 4, and it was a satisfying conclusion to the Nathan Drake story line. I'm not sure where I'd rank it in the franchise, but after playing my first thought is that I still prefer 3 over everythi...

Still really enjoying UC4. I think I'm in chapter 16 or 17. Unfortunately I saw the brothers' relationship telegraphed. I wish I hadn't. But it has been great fun, nonetheless. Sometimes you're just in the mood for a big-budget romp, and this has filled the bill nicely. I've always loved the Unchart...

I didn't realize that people did. While I personally like Uncharted 2 more than 3, I still think that 3 is a great game. There is certainly a very vocal contingent (on GAF/Resetera at least) that is never shy about voicing their utter hatred for UC3. As with most things with that community, it's pr...

I don't hate 3, but I see 2 as the "objectively better" game. I hope you don't feel like I'm picking on you, but that saying...it makes me shiver. :P I do understand the narrative complaints people had with 3, but it still wasn't enough to dampen the overall package for me, and a few sele...

Ha, sadly not too far off. I'll never understand the venom so many have towards UC3. It's incomprehensible to me. (or just hyperbole) I get preferring 2 over 3, fine. But essentially, THEY'RE THE SAME GAME!!!!! So silly to me.

Yeah, I may. I just don't want to get burned out on the formula. Although I am curious since I've heard quite a few people (although likely the minority) proclaim it their favorite in the entire franchise.

Well cane, your rankings line up with mine for the first 3, so hopefully that's a good sign. I didn't remember that you were a member of the special club that sees UC3 as the best of the PS3 trilogy. Good to know.

Started up Uncharted 4, and only got through the first couple chapters, but of course, gorgeous as always. Looking forward to enjoying this farewell (?) adventure to good ol' Nate.

Maybe I'll play TLL right after. (or take a break, who knows. )
