I beat Uncharted 3, Batman AC, Beyond Good and Evil, and Ico recently. I'll probably finish Shadow of the Colossus before exams are over so maybe Sonic Generations/Trine 2/Dark Souls over the break.

Not really, there were some framerate issues but that has been reduced significantly due to a recent patch.
Also, I've had a few freezes while playing, but the auto-save makes it bearable.

On that note, I'll be playing Skyrim and Battlefield 3!

The PS3 version of Skyrim is still broken. I don't own it, but the Metacritic user scores speak for themselves. The fact that these same issues were had with the PS3 versions of Oblivion and Fallout 3, and never fixed, I wouldn't hold out on the incompetent, lazy sacks of crap at Bethesda fixing it.

Speaking of which, I'll be starting Skyrim, and Skyward Sword (probably at a friend's house) over the break.

I've also still got to finish the MGS HD Collection, as well as my new game plus file on Dark Souls.

The game lags a little bit, due to the autosaving; i think it caches too much data and when the save file size get to be too large it lags. My solution was to just save it manually and restart the game every couple of hours. Another problem, the game is addicting.. i had to get my friend to hide my power cables so i couldn't play until exams were over

If i can get into the CS:GO beta i'll probably be playing that. Aside from just counter strike I was thinking that i'd try and get 100% of the achievements in Skyrim because i'm already so close from just playing it.
