On another note: I finished Uncharted 2 last night. The ending was wonderful. The whole game was easily one of the best I have played this gen. There is a certain charm and element of adventure in the Uncharted games that make me feel the same way I did when I first watched Indiana Jones.

By far Nathan Drake is the best video-game character ever made, and his games are some of the best. If you've never played them; you are missing out on something great.

I'm now playing Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack In Time. Another great game in one of my favorite series.

Hehe, sweet shoes ^^

I don't have one particular favourite game character. I just envision all of my favourites hanging out together Valhalla style (but without all the backstabbing and betrayal; it would be a shame if one of them died:p)

Still have to finish Uncharted 2! I have been playing on and off for three weeks now and nearly at the end. Hopefully I will finish it this weekend :)

Le Saboteur: Isn't that from Grim Fandango? I've read a bit about the game (and Schafer's earlier work), but I never had the opportunity to play them.

Grim Fandago is a pretty fun game (from what I remember).

I mean, just say that name: Grim Fandango.

It oozes badassery.

Yep, that's from Grim Fandango. Quite possibly the greatest adventure game of all time, and you'd be remiss to not play it and Full Throttle. There's a snowball's chance in hell your local game store'll have it, but Amazon does (at a ridiculous 66-odd bucks).

Here's a couple of tidbits to whet your appetite.

Just finished Uncharted 2 this weekend! Man, that was pure awesomeness ^^

Now my girlfriend can claim the PS3 to play Brutal Legend :p

And yeah, Grim Fandango kicks butt! It's a very fun game to play, and the characters are simply brilliant ^^

^ A buddy of mine is addicted to it. Personally I'm not into those type of games.

I've been playing the original Wolfenstein a lot lately.

And I've been screwing around in GTA 4 out of boredom.

Went on a date with a lawyer named KiKi (No relation, Lonsome :p ) and got lucky. Gotta love GTA.
