It’s the most wonderful time of the year! San Francisco is suffering a bit of a cold spell, so it’s the perfect excuse to stay inside and finish UNCHARTED 3. And Batman: Arkham City. And Rage. And Dark Souls. And Shadow of the Colossus. And Dead Island. And Battlefield 3. All in preparation for this Tuesday, with the arrival of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Wish me luck!

In other happenings this week, Jeff took guest turn on Pulse with a valuable UNCHARTED 3 tip, Capcom showed off its 2012 PS3 lineup, the developers of upcoming PSN horror game Amy showed that survival is within reach, IO Interactive narrated a sequence from Hitman: Absolution, PSN announced a price reduction in the DirecTV NFL Sunday Ticket app for the remainder of the season, Naughty Dog released the full soundtrack to all three UNCHARTED games on PSN and iTunes, Brazil PlayStation.Blog manager Fabio Santana dished out new details on King of Fighters XIII, “Where is my Heart?” was revealed as a free PlayStation Plus title for 11/8, RPG Fate/EXTRA hit PSP, 2012 strategy RPG Rainbow Moon was confirmed as a PSN exclusive, and the creators of DUST 514 showed off the future of war in the form of the imposing Mobile Command Center.
