I beat Portal 2 last night. Only had ~6-7 hours of gameplay. However, the co-op (that I haven't touched as of yet) is supposed to be an entirely new set of levels. Even for $45, I feel like I got my money's worth without even touching the co-op. I enjoyed every second of that game, and I'm stoked to see what co-op has. Plus, if I replay it as much as I did Portal 1, I'll really get some mileage out of this

Tonight I start on Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. I finished AC2 on Monday night, and it ended on such a high note. I hope ACB can pick up right where that one left off

I know I'm about 2 years late on this, but I was technologically impaired for awhile: finally installed Dragonage: Origins on my laptop--great game! I love the classic D&D RPGs, even with rules that allow mages & bards to wear armor

In case you guys missed it, Sony admitted that PSN network security was breached and hackers possibly stole tons of personal data

My wife just picked up Assassins Creed 3. I was going to when it came out in Nov but honestly I couldn't be bothered with anything that wasn't Black Ops during that time LOL. She absolutely loved the 2nd one so I'm assuming this one will be similar.

I haven't had a chance to play it yet but will report back in when finals are over and when my work schedule lets up a bit.

I hadn't even heard of this game until yesterday. I need to do some research on it tonight.

Anyone picking up Brink? I'm gonna give it a week and then see what youtube reviews say about it before I decide to pick it up or not.

It wasn't really "hacked" per se...but they required only an e-mail address and a date of birth to change. Both of those pieces of data would have been in the database of whoever cracked in and stole info. I'll call it an exploit/workaround/glaring inconsistency

... I'm really trying to make it positive and say they caught it before anything major happened. *sigh*

Since Sony is a multi-billion dollar company, I would think they should have their **** together. But, I guess not.

Maybe Bill Gates is doing all this mischief!! He got bored with retirement.

I started up on DragonAge: Origins again last night. I tried it when it first came out, and it just didn't do anything for me. I am enjoying it quite a bit more so far. Just had it laying around for a year, seemed like it was time to sit down and play it haha.

Sony estimated a $171 Million cost for the PSN breach...only about $2 per account.

But between the earthquake and the PSN breach, they are at a net loss of $3.14 Billion for their fiscal year. Yowza.
