Also I want to play this Heavy Rain that is coming out for PS3.

This looks good as well.

I will get each of them in the next few months, for a couple of reasons one I don't pay $60 for a game (nothing depreciates faster then a video game) and second I want to hit prestige in MW2 (at level 69 currently) and play thorough Uncharted 2.

You guys know of anything else cool coming out?

What is funny about this thread is I am now just starting to play BioShock 2. Got it for $4 on half.com.

Funny I was just thinking about picking up the first one. I rented it for a while when it first came out and got about half way through and for whatever reason didn't finish it.

I use a Playstation controller on my PC. An authentic Sony Platation controller, made for a Playstation/PS2.

Picked up a Radio Shack PS2-USB adapter and boom...works on a PC. Love it on Madden.

I had a Gravis Eliminator that I LOVED...worked so smoothly and had a great grip textiue...but it quit on me after years. Instead of buying a replacement, I decided to use one of my Playstation controllers laying around. Buttons were about the same.

New Game from the creators of Heavy Rain featuring Ellen Paige who ironically looks like one of the main characters in another upcoming game called the "Last of Us."

Anyone else get NCAA '13 yet? Here's some advice, don't bother. Stick with '12 instead.

It's not a bad game really, it just offers minimal improvements over 12.

12 is a much better bang for the buck right now, and it has custom playbooks if that's what you're looking for.

I think this is the year that Madden might take the crown back. Looking forward to the new physics engine.

I think the biggest thing they'll try to attract people to 13 will be having the college legends playable on any team you want.

Yeah that was their big sell, pretty lame to most hardcore players.

Madden 13 is all I have on my radar right now. Some legit new changes coming by way of connected careers and a new physics engine.
