I had a few problems with the lists this week.

That was a pretty amazing story. I love video games for entertainment purposes, but it is kind of awesome to know that they help others in more profound ways.

I expect the next Assassin's creed to be in the modern day more. That's the only way I could think of them justifying the multiplayer. The modern day war between the Templars and Assassins.

I think it's a focus on the moment kind of think. When a person is a small child, they really don't care about the future, they only care about having fun at the moment they are living. As we age, we become more and more focused on the future.

I have my ps3 set to update Facebook when I win trophies. I would definitely want to turn it off for this game.

@imonwelfare: I know a lot of people will disagree with me, but i don't think avatar deserves the amount of Oscar nominations it has received. I thought it was a good movie because of the technical stuff, definitely not because of the acting or story.

@imonwelfare: one big difference, uncharted 2 is truly a great game, as opposed to Titanic which only won because it was the highest grossing movie of all time.

Naughty dog is such an awesome developer. I am happy to see their game getting so much recognition.

@ThirzaLepidus: The artist must have been pretty board. (Sorry, couldn't resist.)

That's pretty awesome. Yay for recycling.

I can't help but wonder how much of the "dumbing down" of box art for America is not the publishers fault but is the fault of the big box retailers that sell most of America's games: Wal-Mart, Gamestop, Best Buy, etc...

@spartanan: There's really no telling. A lof of gamers seem to think that Kotick is the physical manifestation of Satan.

I would not mind having a Captain Quark or an Emperor Tachyon. As for the R.Y.N.O., there is no way. Long Island iced teas are strong enough as it is, and adding Red Bull would kick my butt.

I really had no interest in seeing the movie anyway, but I am wondering are the books any good. The premise actually seems kind of interesting, if it was done right anyway.

@Guru Smooth: Sounds good. Thanks for the idea.

@drag: Yeah sorry about my spirit comment, not sure what made me think it was.

Speaking of spirits...

I want this! I think my wife would be pretty pissed at me though. We are super broke right now, I don't think she would like me very much if I spent $180 on some figure, no matter how awesome.

@Helba: I don't know. I haven't play Demon's Souls, but I definitely think they should be in "use of online," Demon's Souls had one of the most innovative uses of online ever.

So GTA: Lost and the Damned makes him catatonic?
