Seen Tomb Raider at a redbox. almost paid the dollar and cents, and now... sad I didn't.

I finished it the other day. First JRPG I've finished in probably a decade +. Love the game. Really hope they make a sequel.

Trying to decide if I want to play a Platinum or Grasshopper game before starting XCOM. 8)

I may try Tomb Raider when it is cheap. Doubt I will like it better than Uncharted, as that is maybe my favorite series this gen. But cool to see the positive reports.

Re: Ni No Kuni

If anyone who has finished it or won't play any more, and would be open to selling it (or trading for a print) let me know.

Better than 1 and 3, up there with 2. I'm a huge fan of the series as well.

It borrows heavily from Uncharted, but I was more invested in going through an adventure with Lara than I have ever been with Drake. I think the Giant Bomb quick look nails a lot of points concerning Tomb Raider versus Uncharted.

Kinda holding out on games. New systems are a bit away, but would rather save up what I can right now. Checking out the new systems makes my brain drool. OH THANK YOU TECHNOLOGY!

All of this is spot on.

Steam has a massive Indie game sale going on.

Highly reccomend picking up: Amnesia, Limbo, Binding of Issac, etc. All really cheap and really good!

I had started playing GOW Ascension, and had a few other games going on at the same time, however everything is on hold now. Bioshock Infinite comes out on Tuesday and it will be glorious.

Ok, thanks for the responses guys.

I am a HUGE Uncharted fan, and so was wondering about this. Uncharted (and Bioshock) were reasons I bought a PS3 years ago.

I loved 1, and thought 2 was an improvement in every way...especially the controls (grenade throwing MUCH better) and story. I felt 3 was ok, but a bit too ridiculous, even by Uncharted standards. They are a ton of fun, despite cliche after cliche and cheesy scripts.

I want TR, but may wait as I want to explore the new Bioshock although I miss Rapture already. :(

I'm gonna try to blow through Bioshock 1 and 2 this weekend to get me ready for Infinite next week. Though I've been stuck on HotS for the last few days. I'm addicted! :shock:
