Well just thought I would give an update on what I've been up to and what games I've been playing, don't worry guys I made this blog a bit more organized then my last blog, so here we go

 

Well first up was the School Holidays that just passed, they were awesome, no teachers, no homework, no detentions just holidays. My holidays was pretty fun just kicking back and playing straight games everyday. The main game I played through most of the  Holidays was Uncharted Drake's Fortune (SPOLIERS AHEAD). I really enjoyed the story as it was about Nathan Drake trying to find El Dorado, which was something I had actually heard about, then it brought a intriguing twist that El Dorado wasn't actually a city of gold but was of a gold statue(SPOILER FINISHED) which got me even more hooked on to the game. The graphics of Uncharted Drakes Fortune was excellent, it felt as if you were actually running through a rainforest or running through some ancient ruins. The action/ adventure mixture really made my Holidays enjoyable.

Once I finished Uncharted I had only 3 days left of Holidays so I played Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm. Although it isn't a RPG game (which I hope Namco Bandai games will end up making Naruto games into) the fighting gameplay was pretty cool, weren't too many buttons to learn and the Ultimate Jutsu and ninjutsu moves added better feeling to the game as Ultimate Jutsu's have a short video to go along with it and had a mini button bash battle to see if the jutsu will hit your opponent or miss. The down fall for this game was that it didn't have any trophies to win, all it had was missions to fulfill which included climbing up trees, climbing from tree to tree (which was pretty cool) and battling opponents like orochimaru and skukaku. I'm still working on trying to finish the missions, so far 70% done.

After when holidays finished it was back to school, where for me and probably everyone else is boring but I do my work as I need to get good enough credits to do Computer Science next year at Auckland University so I can become a Game Programmer. If I do get into Computer Science and get a Bachelor of Computer Science I still don't know which gaming company to apply for, after I played Shatter I was thinking about Sidhe as it is in NZ (as I'm thinking about working at Aussie or NZ based), but then my other options could be:

 

 - 2K Australia

 - THQ Studios Australia

 - Krome Studios

 - Infinite Interactive

 - Nintendo Australia

 - Namco Bandai

 

I was able also to borrow Resistance Fall of Man off my Uncle as Resistance 2 doesn't have offline multiplayer, I've been ripping up every single person that call me out on resistance, you could probably actually call me the king of Resistance, its not as if I screen ;) . I've just recently downloaded Shatter which has been awesome. Been trying to unlock all levels but my sister keeps kicking me off (as its her PS3 because she won it from MTV with Resistance 2), but so far I've been up to the 4th boss, but I didn't get a high score as I kept using all my lives and credits. I think the highest I've had is about 70mil, I know, I know a little bit aye but don't worry guys I will be up there with you's soon in scores, hopefully I can avoid getting kicked off by my sister. I'm gonna have to start playing some Fat princess soon, but Shatter is too addictive I don't know if I can leave Shatter behind.

Well I think thats raps me up guys

AGREED. Uncharted is easily one of the best experiences you can have this gen. So looking forward to the sequel then I guess.

Just stared playing Shatter myself. Great so far but suck even more then you at the mo.

Argh, my dad's blocked every MAC address that doesn't belong to our computers so I can't download Shatter. :(

I really liked Uncharted though until near where it got a bit tedious.

Thanks for the spoiler warning I still haven't gotten round to finishing Uncharted.

1 problem I have with Uncharted though is the use of sixaxis controller it feels so gimmicy.
