So yeah - I've been in Florida for the past couple days. My grandmother passed away on Sunday, and we flew out immediately from Utah (damn planes...). I'm sitting in a hotel room right now while stuff is getting prepared, So I thought I'd give you some impressions of games I've been playing. Sorry for the lack of pictures - I'm on my not-touch screen phone right now.

Demon's Souls

If you read my previous post about this game, you'd know that I was having a tough time liking it. It's glitchy, the camera's bad, and the targeting system God-awful. Well, none of those things have changed, but the game itself is still amazing. Never in my life have I been so addicted to a game, because it truly takes all the gameplay mechanics of the 8- and 16-bit games and puts a 3D spin on them. You'll need to dig into your decade-old gaming prowess to play this game, and not even that will be enough to keep from getting slaughtered. I love it.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Oh. My. GOD. I never thought I'd say this, but if I had not already owned a PS3, I would have bought one just for this game.

The single-player mode is the most cinematic game I've seen outside of Metal Gear Solid 4, which is saying a lot. It's much more balanced than the first game, with much more climbing and puzzle-solving. The multiplayer is fantastic - It has perks, but not unbalanced or unfair like other online games I've played. It's still 90% skill, and the perks just give you a little oomph. It's like my favorit online game of this generation (Gears of War) but with the climbing system of Assassin's Creed. On the whole, this may actually be the best game I've ever played. It's that good.

Anyway, that's what I've been up to. Time to get back to reality... Wish me luck. What have you guys been playing?
