I started Assassin's Creed 3 the other night. Got it on the Wii U.

Graphically and gameplay-wise, this game is not a huge revolution for the franchise at all...at least so far. Its basically a very close continuation of what they've been doing for 5 games now. Its good stuff, but its all stuff you've seen before. Just in a different setting with a not as charming main character. I do like the main guy, but he's much more plain spoken & dry than Altiar or Ezio.

The best thing about this game so far is that you can map the whole in-game HUD to the Gamepad, and have a clean TV screen a la ZombiU.

That, minor as it sounds, may be a huge advantage to me.  As it is on the PS3 I'm constantly having to press select to get the map in order to set waypoints.  Breaks the immersion quite a bit.  Still not enough of a temptation to start thinking about investing in a U

The VGA's was excellent last night. A whole bunch of awesome trailers, Samuel Jackson did a great job hosting, there were some hilarious skits, and some great musical moments as well. Kojima is devious. What a wicked stealth trailer for Metal Gear. There was only one disappointing moment in the show and that was Half-Life 2 winning game of the decade. Nyaa

LOL at all the help GG asks for on Miiverse. Great tool for that, hopefully that makes games less frustrating for you GG.

I've been playing Super Mario World this morning. Damn, this game is still freaking awesome; it even looks great on an HDTV too. Best Mario game ever.

Just finished AC Revelations.  Thinking about what to play next.  Soooo many games on my shelves.  Decisions decisions.  If I had Uncharted 3 here I'd probably want to play that but it hasn't arrived yet Sad
