    Well my PS3 HDD died due to a power surge at my house. Real bummer as I was playing a lot of Virtua FIghter 5 Final Showdown and using Netflix lately. I had only had my PS+ account for a few months but was loving playing VF5:FS as it's such a competitive game. With PS4 coming soon, I doubt I get a new HDD for the PS3 (I already had to replace the stock HDD with a 240gig aftermarket I installed). I just don't want to go through the hassle again for now.

    BUT, I did snatch up Tomb Raider for 75% off on Steam so that is nice. How is it? I got Uncharted 3 for free with the PS+ account and was just getting into the game before my PS3 took a dive. Is Tomb Raider on the PC a worthy experience similar to it? Anyone play both and have any opinions on this? Happy Saturday and hopefully some of you are watching the Mayweather Fight on PPV :)

    Peace

    If you're talking about the new Tomb Raider then Hell yes it's worth it. I honestly loved every minute of playing the game and after the story i even went back into the world to figure out the mini-stories that they've created. The game's honestly worth buying.

    Yep Tomb Raider was one of the best games this year. Stellar gameplay and gorgeous graphics on PC.
