This season's really starting to pick up. Last night's episode was great, but I wonder why they even bothered with the case, since so little screen time was devoted to it, it was never really resolved properly, and didn't have much to do with the main plot.

Flying Gerbil, I'm the same way, I noticed that during E3. We were seeing Uncharted, the Vita, Skyrim, and other gorgeous HD games that I was excited for... but when Nintendo had their conference, there's just something special about Zelda and Mario. I just care more. It gives me that warm feeling, probably due to massive nostalgia.

We saw Mordin in the trailer but he didn't look like a squad member, it'd be really great if some of the Mass Effect 2 people were main squad members, maybe a Miranda or Jacob or even Legion, who got frustratingly low screen time. I laughed.

I don't know how I'd explain that to my girlfriend. I do hope the Assassin's Creed outfit for Noel gets released here. I'm excited for the Sazh DLC, hopefully it's as long as one of the games chapters.

I voted no. I got burned in the N64 era and never got over it. I would, however, buy a 360 controller if it looked/felt exactly like DS3. I don't know if there's anything out there, but that might make me turn my 360 on again.

I don't think they're confined to Europe. Remember in AC2 when they got all the codex pages together, and a map of the entire world appeared? All of these mysteries seem to date back to "the first people" who weren't just in Europe. Actually, now that I think about it, over the course of AC:R, you hear conversations as they board a plane, back to North America, I think.

I'm not so much opposed to Europe, as I am America. If you read other gaming sites (Kotaku) the general consensus seems to be The American Revolution would be the best place to set AC3. I disagree, if they're going to North America, I think a better setting would be Canada, and I think that's what Ubisoft Montreal would do too. Realistically, it'll probably be in Asia or in modern times. Out of curiousity, the location from the last scene in AC:R, do we know where that was?? SixTwoSixFour, if you want to learn more about Desmond, AC:R has some pretty big sections devoted to him and his past. It's a pretty good game, just maybe a bit too much of "more of the same" but if you liked 2 and Brotherhood, you won't mind Revelations.

What are the other Assassin's Creed games planned? The 3DS one was canceled, but isn't their a Vita game? Because judging from that short film they made last year, obviously asia looks like a possibility. It would be cool if the majority of the game was set in 2012, but there could be segments set in

After the successful games Ubisoft Montreal has released, I'm sure they're allowed to set their games wherever the want. Even if they weren't, Ubisoft, as you pointed out, is based out of France, Canadian history has a lot to do with France, so I can't really see them saying no. Actually, why would they even be told they can't? Canadian history would be a perfect setting for Assassin's Creed. And are you telling me that in 1830's there weren't any buildings to climb in Montreal? Really? Realistically, since the games are going to tie up Desmond's story, and judging on the increase attention on Desmond in the past few games, the game will probably be focused entirely on him (or an ancestor living his memories.. maybe?). Maybe a modern day Montreal or Toronto? Maybe they'll pull a Bioware and set their game in Vancouver, which would be an amazing setting for the free running platforming of Assassin's Creed. Based on the ammount of Canadian games being produced (Mass Effect, Deus Ex, Assassins Creed, Dragon Age, etcetcetc) we'll no doubt start seeing more Canadiana in games.

I voted for other. Since Ubisoft is a Canadian company, and their Assassin's Creed games are developed in Canada, Assassin's Creed 3, if it is in the past, should be in Canadian history. Maybe something with the Red River Rebelion, or during some of the battles between England and France and the rebellions of of 1837. Canada has a very interesting history to play around with, something that's not done often enough.

I agree with Strangelove, nothing wrong with the demo. In fact, it was pretty awesome. There were improvements over Mass Effect 2 just like there was improvements from 1 to 2. I like the way Shepard moves around, and the melee combat is nice. Finally seeing Earth was pretty cool. I didn't notice any frame rate issues on the PS3.

Playing the demo, first thought is, Shepard clearly does live in Vancouver. Does that make him a Canuck's fan? think so.

Resistance 3 showed up in the mail today! Outside of Fallout 3 (which doesn't count) I don't think I've played a FPS since Perfect Dark... besides about 5 minutes of COD4. The Vita store has finally updated, downloaded Escape Plan and Rayman Origins. I was going to pick up Lumines Electric Symphony but I've never played a Lumines game before, so I downloaded the game as the 35 dollar price tag looks a little steep, we'll see how I like it.

Yeah, hopefully this game has plenty of Garrus, Thane, and maybe even some Legion.

That sucks. If his role has been reduced, and someone like Jack or Zaeed has been increased, I'm going to riot.

I've gotten further in Uncharted and there's multiple things that require touch screen. It's never too bad, in fact some of the touch screen puzzles are pretty cool, but having to perform counter melee attacks are a drag.

No? I didn't think she could!

Just beat Mass Effect 2. Got the gold trophy for not losing any crew members. Kelly died though. Oh Kelly, how I'll miss you.... Spunky red head, I'll never forget that night we spent together.

You bought it on PS3, FLD? You + me = ME3 multiplayer in March. Cool?

All the system menus make you use the touch controls and don't respond to buttons, but it's not so bad, they're probably quicker with the touch controls. All the games made you "touch to start" which shouldn't be necessary. I can only comment on Uncharted (which I haven't played a ton of), the first level comes up with some tutorials that recommend using the touch/tilt controls but nothing I've seen is mandatory, except having to click the gun/ammo logo in the top right corner to reload (but there might be another way I haven't seen yet). You can move the Vita for aiming, which isn't ideal but you can use the right stick and do some minor tweaking by moving the Vita a bit. I think that might be helpful. Helpful hint: when playing a PSP game, touch and hold the screen, you can then have options to smooth the screen and map the dpad (hello camera control!).
