Picked up The Last of Us last night. It is like watching a movie that you need to interact with in the beginning, but get to more regular game play later. The graphics and animation are incredible, damn near lifelike. Realy like it so far.

I almost want to get a ps3 just to play this game.

It only gets better the more you play. It really is like playing a TV series, or a movie. I am still in awe at the life-like graphics and animation. Just the facial expressions that people make while talking is impressive, and their mouthing is in perfect sync with the soundtrack unlike other games I have played before.

Yeah, I was THAT guy sending swarm after swarm of Hydra's to the slaughter. They always eventually got through, but not before the Siege Tanks had there fill of blood.

Finished my first time through The Last of Us. Took me 20 hours to complete the game, but that was only after I switched it to Easy about 1/3 of the way through. Literally could not get out of one area on Normal, way too many infected attacking and I couldn't get away. Now that I have a feel for the game, I am re-doing on normal all the way through to see if I can do any better.

Only the Uncharted series and Tomb Raider have been games that I would replay once I have completed it, until this one. I might actually do the online thing with this as it sound like it would be a lot like The Walking Dead.

Picked up Tomb Raider over the weekend and got some time on it, which has been great so far. I also downloaded an Xbox Arcade game called "Guardians of Middle Earth" which is just a DOTA like MOBA but with LOTR characters (enough abbreviations?) but can provide a whole lot of time and fun for the 10 bucks it costs.

Steams annual summer sale is going on now.
http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/1i3do5/steam_summer_sale_buying_guidelines/

Hey /r/gaming! Before the Steam Summer Sale (SSS) gets into full swing I'd like to get a guideline for making purchases. I remember seeing that you shouldn't buy things willy nilly, but does that apply to the Daily Deals (DD)? Right now Bioshock Infinite is a DD, but will it get any lower if it becomes a Flash Sale (FS)? Can it become a FS, or Community Choice (CC)? These are the kinds of questions that I want to be answered before we all start spending our hard earned cash.
Therefore, I propose a Guideline for the SSS:
Don't buy games unless they are a Daily Deal, Flash Sale, or Community Choice (you may have to wait for your game, but it'll save you $$$ in the long run)
If a game hasn't been a DD, FS, or CC buy it on the last day of the SSS (getting it at the SSS discount is better than full price or not at all)
If a CC deal does't include any games you're looking for choose the biggest discount best deserving game (just because you don't want any of the CC games doesn't mean that other people feel the same way)
Purchase games as gifts, too many times have I seen people buy a bunch of games just to have them sit in their library and never get played. If you purchase them as gifts you can instal them when you want or trade them with friends.
That's all I can think of right now, but feel free to add your own input or make changes.
