So it’s getting hot here finally, well I guess not finally, but unexpectedly. I was expecting one last snow storm here, but I guess not as it’s 74F right now and late this week it’s going to hit 80F. I have a thermometer I keep on my desk for testing to get the ambient room temperature and it says it’s 79F where I’m sitting. Blah, it’s Saturday and I just don’t really feel like doing much of anything. I want to just sit and veg out, watch TV, maybe catch up on playing some games. I got Uncharted 3 a few weeks ago and I’ve still not even put the Uncharted 2 disc in my PS3! I haven’t even completed Uncharted 1 yet actually. I also have the Uncharted for the PS Vita that I’m going to review but it doesn’t feel right playing it as I’ve never played the others in the series. I’m the type of person that has to finish a game and/or play the other games in a series before going on. Honestly I’d rather just take a nap, but I’ve got my youngest son here with me so that’s not going to happen…. Oh well, Happy St Patrick’s Day and here’s the news…
