I did love Sands of TIme, although the rewind feature saved my ass more than once. 

I get bored with cover shooters quick. I get impatient with stealth gameplay as well. I want to like JRPGs, but the random encounters annoy me and I never really know what's the best attack/defense strategy. RTS doesn't really appeal to me. 

I'm finnicky. 

I guess the problem is moreso the bloat is not fun. I love Yakuzao 0 and you could argue the mini-games bloat it, but they're actually fun. Plus, the side quest stories are actually funny and engaging. 

When I say bloated, I mean "collect 70 oodles on your way from point A to B 50 times." At that point, I'd personally rather pay the $60 for the 10 or 15 hours the developers gave a shit about than subject myself to more of that nonsense. I think how limited my time is (or should be; been sick lately and kinda lazy) factors in as well.  

That looks fun, but I prefer the linear 3D Zelda games. I actually tend to enjoy having a clear beginning and end. I don't really understand the whole "sandbox" thing. 

I saw the "Ummm ... WTF" post you ... didn't make. I figured that's what happened.

I missed your "Ummm ... WTF?!" blog. Gonna check and see if I can find the "That's ... Weird" blog. 

Every week day that isn't Friday sucks. We all need to admit that. 

Zidane? That reminds me of the head-butting French soccer player. 

I'm about 3 chapters in to Uncharted 2 and can already tell I'll probably enjoy it more. 

I think this is my second gun fight, and it's really not that bad even though I stopped after dying. I am kind of embarrased the last time I played this I couldn't get past the museum guards, only to realize punching the shit out of them somehow doesn't alert other guards. That's handy ...

I just finished Uncharted 1 and wasn't impressed. There was way too much gunplay. It really got annoying. I'll take auto-corrected jumps ( which I haven't run into yet in 2, but I just started) over more of that damn cover shooting any day.
