Ratchet and Clank HD Collection

WOO! I LOVE this game! I'm gonna have to trade in my old copies for the new one. (Assuming they have the HD Collection on Disc format and not only on the PSN) Same goes with the ICO/Shadows of the Colossus collection, which I still want to pick up.

Now I hope that it won't be a bit of a dud like Splinter Cell kinda was. My main problem with Splinter Cell was that although it was nice to have all the graphics updated, and the 3D included, they didn't amend the Videos and simply changed the image quality of the skins, and I think they did something with the shadows too. (I can't remember playing the first Splinter Cell well enough to compare)

While I still love the game, and I really do, I finished R&C 1 about 10 times so I could get the RYNO and all the Gold Guns. Actually, I think I just stuffed around after about the third or forth run through. It makes me want to play R&C All 4 One with Aaron and Scott.

Maggies

Now I don't hate them. I did a long time ago when I was riding my bike to school, since they'd swoop me as I passed their nests, but now I don't have that problem. (Though I'd like to start riding again, but I'll have to get back to that another day) Now a-days, I usually see Magpies when I'm mowing Mums lawn.


Every time I go out there, they'd stand by and occasionally jump down to grab at the worms and jump back up into any of the trees we have in the yard. (I'd have to ask Mum what they are, I've forgotten) This time, mowing out the front yard, a little magpie just sat there and watched. I even got so close that he could reach out and peck my head as I pushed on by.

I thought that was entertaining. I would've reached out to give him a scratch if I weren't afraid he'd either bite me, or I'd pick up something like Fleas.
