Ye know you make me wanna SHOUT!!!

Hehehe sorry.  Songs stuck in my brain right now.  Don’t know why.  It just is.

So this week has been pretty cool.  Saw Zombieland.  It rocked.  Saw some other stuff and it got me through the week I guess.  Nothing to exciting as my life had been all Uncharted 2 all the time.  That’s right Uncharted 2 ruled my life this past week and I am not ashamed to say it.

Uncharted 2 is the continuation of the adventures of Nathan “Nate” Drake, a fortune hunter badass.  The story picks up a few years after part 1 with Nate on the trail for Marco Polos journals and the time missing from them.

First off, the cinematics of this game are astounding.  It’s so pretty that it looks great even on my non hd tv.

The gameplay mechanics are the same as the were in the first game.  Easy to control and basic yet fun.  My only complaint is the camera control.  Sometimes you are messing with the camera and suddenly some douche from outta nowhere snaps your neck.  Aggravating.

But other than that, it’s a pretty sweet game.  And the story is so deep that you want to keep playing just to see what else happens.  They extended the gameplay so that the gamer could enjoy it more and become more enthralled with the gameplay.

They also added a multiplayer aspect to the game.  I haven’t had a chance to crack it open yet but if it’s anything like the beta then I know I will be devoting even more time to it.

So yeah it’s #1 on all the charts right now and deservedly so.  Run out and pick up a copy now!!!!

Last night I went out to Hyaena Gallery in Burbank, Ca in support of Girls Drawin Girlsshowing their artwork their.  The Gallery itself was very awesome in that it was littered with amazing paintings and sculptures.  I had fun seeing the GDG stuff incorporated into everything.  Stay tuned to some pics and such from the event and in the meantime head over to the site to see some of the artwork on display.

We just wrapped and edited and posted Episode 42 of the Panelcast.  Please head over and give it a listen and let me know what you think.

Sanctuary season 2 started last week and so far it is off to a disappointing start.  Me no likey.  Smallville has taken a turn this season in that it is focusing more on the dramatics than the normal smushy teen love story crap that it follows.  Not saying that it is better but it is a tad bit more tolerable.  Stargate Universe and Defying Gravity are 2 of my new favorites on the air right now.  Though Defying Gravity is already facing cancellation.  Luckily enough they finished filming the first season and since it is a joint production there is a chance that it will continue in Canada or even on ScyFy.  But right now those are the 2 shows that I get upset over the fact that I am watching on the weekly basis.  I hate having to wait a week between eps in order to continue the story.  Grrrrr.

Well that’s all I got for this week.  Make sure you head out and see Where the Wild Things Are.  And please, don’t hesitate to drop me an email and let me know about what you think about my opinions.
