PS2 Backlog Committee

I just finished The Last Guardian... wow. I LOVED it. What a journey with ol' "Tir-ee-ker." If you just take TLG on its merits and don't look at the development craziness, it is the perfect finale to the Ico/SotC trilogy. Like those two it has some issues with the camera and controls, but...

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.
