It’s a big weekend for San Francisco Bay Area gamers – California Extreme has kicked off in the Santa Clara Hyatt Regency. Jeff and I are planning to swing by Sunday to get some hands-on time with the show’s extensive lineup of classic arcade and pinball games. If you see us at the show, be sure to say hi!
It’s summertime, which means a slower game release schedule and fewer big announcements. On the bright side, it’s the perfect chance to catch up on your gaming backlog. I’ve been checking out Dyad and finishing up Spec Ops: The Line. What are you playing this weekend?
I’m playing: Spec Ops: The Line, Pinballistik, Super Stardust HD, countless retro arcade and pinball games
I’m watching: Galaxy of Terror on PS3 Netflix Instant Streaming
Malicious Manifests on PSN Today — This PSN exclusive pits you against an army of enormous boss creatures. Loved Shadow of the Colossus? Give this a shot.
Foosball 2012 Drops on PSN Today! — Woo-hoo! This PS3 and PS Vita arcade game is highly faithful to the real-world classic, and you’ll only have to buy it once to get it on both systems.
PSN PLAY: Pre-order The Expendables 2 Starting Today — Get a head start on PSN PLAY’s first game. Remember: if you buy two PSN PLAY games, you’ll get $3 back; buy three and you’ll get $6 back; buy four to get a whopping $10 back!
I’m playing: Lots of GT5 and Skyrim lately. I have over 70 digital full games on ps3 bought from my main psn account so no telling what I may play next lol.
I’m watching: A lot of Surface on Netflix I mean I just started watching that off netflix and now hooked to the show lol.

2 movies I recommend on netflix if you haven’t already watched them that is…. is Happy Texas with Steve Zahn who is funny as heck and Crazy on the Outside starring Tim Allen. I just watched them yesterday and never saw them before hand and both funny and great stuff. Highly recommend those comedy movies.

I’m playing: Dokuro, great PS Vita game. Definitely worth importing if you like platforming puzzle games and the Asia version has a bunch of language options available.
EyePet & Friends, load screens are awful. The hole in the ground from the original was better. Overall the first is better, despite the general improvements made.
I’m watching: Gravity Falls, best cartoon created in recent years. Reminds me of Disney before they began to co-parent for overprotective parents.
I’m listening to: Brooke Valentine ~ “Don’t Want To Be In Love”, dat R&B.

I actually platinum the original Eye Pet. I bought it for my kids but ended up playing it to and its a fun little game and all but man that platinum was a pain cause of that camera. It was a pain to get it to work right for most of the trophies I needed to platinum the game on my main psn account but in the end I accomplished the task. Even though its eye pet of all things but not really a easy platinum when its fighting with that dang camera picking things up right half the time lol.
Man I got to get in gear and get 10 platinums done already lol. All I have is 7 platinums so far on my main psn account. Games are Burnout paradise, Nascar the game 2011, Dirt 2, Superstars V8 racing, Starhawk, Boarderlands and Eye pet. That’s the 7 games I have platinum so far on my main psn account and so close on Skyrim and dead space so far as well as so many more I just need to get in gear and get them done. GT5 one will be hard but I’m close on that one to. What’s the platinum’s for you guys out their in psn land?
@RENEGADE-Xx-xX Im on my 17 platinum,the last platinum i got was dark souls,very proud of that platinum took me 115 hours,totally worth it lol.yah GT5 platinum is very hard im at 75% i think i still didn´t get the trophy where you spend all your money i should get that one soon.
Bro that drak souls platinum I hear is one of the hardest to ever get so I bow to your skills man. You are one good game with that platinum. I should be taking lessons from you on how to achieve more plats man. Congrats on that hard plat man. That is something to always brag about right there. Great Job to you and anyone else that achieved that hard trophy. They should give credit for that platinum on Job resume’s man and no I’m not joking around I’m serious lol.
Hey Sid is their any cool sales for vita coming up next month on vita hardware?
No word on that, but if anything happens, you’ll be the first to know!
