    I did have a rather nasty freeze during one of the latter chapters of Uncharted 2. First time this has happened to me on the PS3.

    I had 2 freezes myself. Totally froze the PS3 and i had to do a hard reset both times. I figured it was cause it had been running non-stop for 12 hours though :o

    Looks better than the Infamous 2 CE, for a similar price.

    Aww, i want that ring, but that's pretty expensive. Actually, October/November is going to be an expensive month.

    Yeah...that price is pushing it. It's hard to justify when the Arkham City CE is so much cheaper and appears to come with a nicer statue (though you'd have to see both in the plastic to be sure).

    Today I had the pleasure of attending an Uncharted 3 event and meeting Richard Lemarchand, the co-lead designer of Uncharted 3. I saw the gameplay segment that was shown at the Eurogamer Expo (that has since been leaked I believe) called ‘The Settlement’.

    It was amazing! Of course it looked great but what was really interesting was hearing about all the behind the scenes stuff.

    For example, Mr. Lemarchand was keen to point out that Uncharted 3 uses physics objects instead of animated objects as they did in Uncharted 2 – so for example, if you’re familiar with the cruise liner gameplay demo – the entire ship is a physics object, floating in a dynamically simulated ocean. So it’s likely that level won’t ever play the same exact way ever, but playing the game you may not ever be aware of that fact!

    They’ve also improved the lighting model used in the game, so apparently now they use real time volumetric lighting effects instead of particle effects, which previous games would have used. It really sells some of the scenes, they just look incredible due to the lighting.

    Afterwards we got to have a go at the multiplayer LAN they had set up at 8 PS3 stations, where I kicked everyone’s ass. :P

    Mr. Lemarchand was a pretty kickass dude I have to say, and made me appreciate the Uncharted games all the more with all the facts he came out with.

    I do believe some Boardsies will be going to a similar event tonight, and there is something going on at GameStop in St. Stephen’s Green tomorrow also.

    I have... contacts... :pac:

    Well it was a Sony Ireland event, so I think they're having people there all day. I do believe I saw some journalists heading in as I was leaving and I'm guessing they're seeing GameStop or Game employees as well. Tonight yeah they're having the competition winners over and then about tomorrow, PlayStation Ireland posted this on their FaceBook:
    Hey guys, if you're in Dublin tomorrow head down to Gamestop, Stephens Green. Spin will be broadcasting live from 2.45pm and Richard Lemarchand from Naughty Dog will be down from 3.30-4.30pm. Anyone who preorders Uncharted 3 on the day will get a signed inlay and entered into a draw for a €100 Gamestop voucher.

    I got some goodies as well. I'm raging I didn't get Mr. Lemarchand to sign something!
