Right now I am working on alphabetizing my PS2 games collection and cleaning my room. What are you doing/working on?
 
Rented BF3 last night for the 360 and played through several levels after I first had to install a graphics update. haha I just passed the level where you shoot 3 Javelin missiles to take out the tanks. So far the games seems pretty good but nowhere near as good as I expected. I am guessing all the videos they were showing were on the PC for sure. This game looks great but not the best looking game on the 360. Sounds like if you are a fan of BF then you should get it for the PC because thats obviously where this game shines. The flying mission bored me out of my mind. The mission was probably about 20 minutes long with maybe 4 minutes of killing enemies. And as mentioned before there is nowhere near the amount of destruction that they claimed. They said everything could be destroyed and that is not true at all.
As expected I am unable to play online co-op or online multiplayer because of the stupid EA online pass. Oh well.

While I was playing BF3 I played Gran Turismo 5 B spec mode on the PS3. Now my driver is level 11 and my driver finished the Beginner series with all gold. I also was gifted the Gran Turismo race car and that thing is sick!!!!

I also rented Metro 2033 and Heather rented Sims Pets. I plan to play Metro 2033 for sure this weekend and if I have time check out Sims pets.
 
Played throught the Battlefield 3 campaign. As a fan of the BF games I found this campaign to be very disappointing. Especially the flying level and the level where we were on defense in the little mall room. My partner did not help at all. Just sat there like a bullet sponge.

Played a lot of Forza 4. Climbed higher on my FL in almost every drift event in Rivals mode. Then made a few more gains in other rival modes.

Tried to play Metro 2033 but something was wrong with the disk I rented. When I brought it back they said that they had reported issues with that disk. It was the only one they had so it looks like I still wont be able to play that game.

I also played some more B spec in Gran Turismo 5 this weekend and beat the Miata race in the ameteur series. I could not believe the prize car!!! Bummer it was a standard but wow what a prize car!! My driver is also level 12 now.
 
Right now im at work... Electronics store, woohoo :sly:

Looking forward to come home, firing up my pc and play Battlefield 3 :D
 
Right now I am in Communications class doing my assignments, and surprised to see ForzaPlanet is working today. IT department is really trying to make me angry I guess.
 
Played quite a bit more Gran Turismo 5 B spec. My driver is now level 14. I usually multi task GT5 b spec with something on the 360.

I also played some more Half Life 2 on the 360 and unlocked the Barnicle bowling achievement.

Played F4 and unlocked another car in the Autovista.

Hopefully tonight I can rent Uncharted 3.
 
I am doing an Employee Sales Achievements - Spreadsheet Assignment for Info tech. Oh how repetitive these things are. :grumpy:
 
Finished up some ductwork in my house last night.

Then I put 2 and 1/2 solid hours into Uncharted 3. I am currently on level 8. What an a amazing game. The graphics, gameplay, voice acting, storyline, and puzzles are all top notch. Some of the puzzles in this one are very very creative. The use of lighting with the Horse, lion, Pheonix was insanely awesome. Just in general the lighting and use of lighting is the best I have seen in a game. I was also proud that I have not been stuck on a puzzle yet. I had to do some thinking with the puzzle I just mentioned but I had it solved within 5-10 minutes. Always so rewarding solving the puzzles in the UC series. I have also found quite a few hitten treasures. Been taking my time looking around as much as possible and taking in the stunning graphics. The water in this seris is just stunning. Looks so real. Cant wait to get home and put some more time into the campaign.

To wind down from the UC3 excitement I decided to finished up the autovista mode in F4 last night and spent a few minutes taking some pics.
 
Looking for some stuff for my school graduation day tomorrow... A lot of work to do and my head is all over the place. Hopefully I'm not missing anything otherwise I'm so done tomorrow morning.
 
Getting hyped for the GTA5 trailer that is supposed to be released around noon EST. In 15 minutes!
 
im currently waiting for the longest week of my life to be over. Next tuesday ima buy an xbox 360 just so i can get forza 4 -.-
 
Working on trolling online by blitzing tuned cars in my green Eco-Nut Prius.
 
-continued from my previous post about Uncharted 3. ***Might contain mild spoilers.***

So far this is easily GOTY 2011. I played Uncharted 3 all night. Now I have 6 total hours into the campaign and I am on level 16. Some of the previous levels reminded me a lot of Assassins Creed. A couple more creative puzzles especially the tomb puzzle using the light and statues. That was quite fun getting the shadows just right. Level 14 the shipyard and 15 the cruise ship level were just insane. The junkyard shipyard started a bit frustrating and I died a lot. But the level after that inside the cruise ship was very rewarding. Especially the "Aquarium" part. Both these levels had very innovative vertical gameplay. Parts of the cruise ship reminded me a lot of Prey. One minute I was on the ceiling, next on the walls, next on the floor. Just so awesome. The graphics in this game are just jaw dropping beautiful. The all around attention to detail especially the water. The most realistic water I have seen in a game. The Uncharted series always did a great job with their water and water effects. The draw distance, voice acting, facial expressions, frame rate, everything is just so crips and clean in this series. Nothing even close on 360. Its going to be tough for any game to try and top U3.
 
What am I doing now?

I went to a Forza vs. GT5 video on YouTube. So many fanboys, so I took the opportunity to troll them.
 
Finished the Uncharted 3 campaign. Then I went to play the multiplayer or co-op and found out I needed the online pass. 👎 Cant help but laugh at the PS3 commercials that say "play online for free". :lol:

Played quite a bit more of GT5 B spec. Now my driver is level 15. I still need a truck for the truck event in B spec but it has not appeared in the used car dealership yet. I really want the Silverado SS but I will have to find out when exactly that truck arrives.

Played several random events in Forza 4. Mainly rivals and some more campaign.

Halo Reach Played some firefight for about an hour and a half.

I haven't checked lately, and it's likely not the Silverado, but isn't there a truck in the OCD?
