Wondering about that header? It’s been one of those weeks, everybody, so it’s best not to try and make any sense of it.
We closed lots of competitions this week and awarded a bunch of deserving p33ps with prizes, we opened a few more competitions, posted up some great reviews and pasted tons of great game news on the site - all of which is quite tiring, so if you’ll excuse us, we’re off to enjoy our weekend now…
… but not before cooking up more exciting stuff for you to see on El33tonline in the coming weeks, and also not after letting you know what we’ll be busy with over the next two days:
Peter
“Let’s see: I definitely won’t be sitting around watching test cricket. I may be sitting around playing Tetris in 3D. Or perhaps I will be waving my arms around playing Go Vacation. And when my arms tire I might try get a further 0.5% through Forza Motorsport 4 (a feat which can take up to 5 hours).
The only thing I can be sure of is that I will be sleeping and I will be eating and I will be drinking.”
Lisa
“This weekend I’m going to be busy with GoldenEye: 007 and will also be enjoying a couple of new Move titles. I’m also hoping to dabble in some more Uncharted 3 multiplayer, and possibly even some more Just Dance 3.
It will be a busy weekend gaming, reviewing and planning for more cool competitions (and other secret stuff) for you guys and gals, so make sure you check back next week. Have a great weekend everybody!”
Oliver
“If you havin’ router problems, I feel bad for you son, I got 99 problems but a modem ain’t one!
I learned an important lesson this week about leaving my router connected while a storm cracks the sky outside, so from now on, when lighting starts to strike, that device is getting unplugged quick-smart!
Now that that’s all sorted, I plan on getting to grips with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and jumping into Uncharted 3 after a week of saying that I would treat myself to the campaign. Multiplayer and co-op is also on the cards, which if Uncharted 2 is any indication, will be great fun.
I’m also going to give PixelJunk SideScroller a go and try to relive some ancient shooter memories in the process. Have a blast p33ps.”
Tom
“After spending hours of quality time with Dark Souls, Batman: Arkham City and Uncharted 3 over the past few weeks, I’ve finally reached a point where I don’t have all that much to play. All is not lost however, as I’m using the time to catch up on some movie-watching - that incredibly lazy, non-interactive pastime which, unlike gaming, allows you to dig into a bag of chips without having to worry about the ‘greasy controller’ repercussions.
There was going to be some cricket to watch this weekend, but Australia’s dismal batting performance and centuries from Amla and Smith deprived us of that golden opportunity. Oh well - I’m not complaining…
Have fun p33ps!”
Bryan
“The mysterious 11/11/11 11:11:11 has come and gone and lasted but a fleeting second. Kind of feels like the rest of my life, actually. I’ll go for round two tonight and see if that makes any difference to the alignment of the sun, moon, stars, and good old planet Earth.
After tonight’s stellar investigations, the rest of the weekend is a busy one for me - I’ve got a sign language course on Saturday and then some R&R in the evening to recover from the intensity of learning to do sign language with one hand (do they call that ‘short hand’?).
As Hugh Grant once famously said, every man is an island, and on Sunday I hope to sail to my Ibiza and indulge in my very own zombie-slaying on the infamous Dead Island. Never one to go solo, I am looking forward to some exciting co-op with a trusty buddy to stem the hordes of undead surfers and maybe, just maybe, fit in a few rounds of co-op Uncharted 3 with Oltman, but only if he gets a decent TV to play it on ;)”
Oltman
“The weekend could not come at a better time! It is almost as if it was sent! And this weekend I plan to play a LOT of Uncharted 3. I am impressed by what I have played so far, but the highlight of the series still has to be Uncharted 2. I think I should wait until the end before I make such claims!
The postman should have paid Lisa a visit by now which means I will also be getting lost in Skyrim. Literally. The game looks huge! If you don’t hear from me by Monday, send out a search party.”

After completing Uncharted 3, I'll be getting back into the HD remastered version of Shadow of the Colossus (I'm about half way through). I also have some catching up to do on Infamous after getting it in the Welcome Pack. Other than that, I shall mostly be twiddling my thumbs waiting for AC:Revelations.
inFamous is really good, you should enjoy it, and having the pleasure of replaying Shadow of the Colossus in HD is a great opportunity - sounds like a great weekend of gaming! ;)
I will be exploring the Uncharted territories of Skyrim and might even aid in the Resistance to augmentations in the years to come. Or, plainly, some Uncharted 3 (want to get my plat), some Skyrim, some Resistance 3 and Deus Ex.
Ha, nicely done! ;)
Another great gaming weekend planned - sounds fantastic. ;)
I've got a lot of catching up to do since the exams stole so much of my life (yes, stole). Skyrim is installing now. Is it strange that I feel as if it is Christmas morning and that I know I'm getting something massive/good and can't wait to open it?? lol.
Hope the exam went well today, let us know how it went. Enjoy your time relaxing with Skyrim, what a cool reward for your hard work. ;)
PS3 still repairing, so I'm playing Final Fantasy X.
@Oltman you have to let me know how Skyrim is, im really leaning towards getting it
Playing some Skyrim but not enough time as I leave tomorrow so I shall miss all your guys awesome news but be prepared for when I return I'm gonna spam your pages so bad it's gonna make all your heads spin lol. Enjoy P33ps see you when I see you :)
Friday started off slow. Played some Spiderman Edge of time (Thank you for the game El33t) The game is pretty awesome. Today i have some Adventure golf to attend and maybe i'll get the achievement for it, and We have to go to Telkom to have the phoneline and adsl sorted out so it can get moved to the new house in a week and 3 days. I don't want to be left without my online gaming. Will then do some BF3 CO-OP in the afternoon. and alot more gaming.
can i have some of those chips up there? ;)
Had a great saterday. I one the first course of adventure golf but lost badly on the second one. Had some good pizza afterwards. Had a good fun chat with the masters of El33t. Was great chatting to you guys (still want my Rabbits, Even the rabbits doll you told me about). Today I had something awesome happen, but i'll reveal that on monday on twitter and facebook. as i just might get into trouble right now......
You had a chat with the guys at El33t? o.O That's nice.
I had a fun chat with them, but Lisa just didn't want to give me Raving Rabbits Alive & Kicking. They almost bought me a Skyrim CE, but i told them they didn't have to do that ;)
You did what?? Are you crazy?! Someone offers you a Skyrim CE and you turn them down :'( This is sad. Just very very sad :/
El33t has given me so much already, Taking a Skyrim CE from them would have made me feel guilty (I Know i need to get my head checked out)......
I can understand that. But wow amazing of them to offer!
Haha, POItjie, you so crazy! Telling tall tales again, what are we going to do with you! ;)
Sorry I missed out meeting you again, hope you enjoyed the bowling times.
If they tell you they didn't offer me the game, don't believe them ;) they will deny the truth.
Ha, I wish we could offer you such an awesome prize - perhaps I can try get a competition for Skyrim going....watch this space!
Oooooh skyrim comp now im def jumping in on that one, i cant wait to get my WRC2 that i won wanna jump in on those rally tracks....brrrrrrr....brrrr...vrooom....screeetch.........."STOOPID TREES"
a Skyrim Comp will be awesome. The CE box is massive.
@Smuroh, we should split screen WRC2 and see who can hit the most trees ;)
@Lisa you can be honest with everyone that you did offer me a CE of Skyrim on sat. The guy at BT games will be my witness ;)
Hmm who to believe... POItjie, or the people who decide the winners of the comps. Uhm think I'm going to believe the El33t peeps sorry POItjie :P Now stop telling false tales. Oh and I am all for that Skyrim comp!! :D
Its not a false tale.....at least it sparked a interest and started the idea of a Skyrim Comp ;)
