Assassins Creed: Brotherhood
Well I was going to finish Alpha Protocol first, but couldn't resist since I LOVED Assassins Creed 2
I've already put 16 hours into it, maybe more and I've only done 20% of the game apparently, and I've had just one match online, it's great but I found it hard to stun your pursuer, but meh.
The game feels like Assassins Creed 2.5, which it basically is, but with tons of refinements and improvements, I mean, the battlesystem has been tweaked a little more, and it's now even more freeflow than before, I can kill 8 guards in one big continuous movement as opposed to having to stop and counter midway through, it feels so smooth and great. I also love the inclusion of the Crossbow and the Poison Darts, they're tops, and wow at the Assassins Guild, I thought it'd be a little boring from what I'd read before, but sending them off on missions to level them up, and calling all 12 Assassins to you at once to take out a hoard of guards, it's hilarious, especially when they just leap out of hay bales or throw a smokebomb, and when the smoke has cleared, the enemy is dead and the Assassin is nowhere to be seen, it's really great, although it makes you a tad overpowered, but you can't abuse it since it has a cooldown, but meh, it's still amazing.
tl;dr this game is pretty amazing.

LOL, currently playing tomb raider 2... LOL.
The memories, the memories, the memories.
The memories, the memories, the memories.
So I finished Assassins Creed: Brotherhood today, and I've got to say it was really enjoyable, although the ending was a little sudden, as if they ran out of production time and rushed it, but hey, I still loved the game anyway, and I'm not going to spoil it for anyone, but I'll say this: There WILL be an Assassins Creed 3.
It took me overall 25 hours to finish the singleplayer and get all six keys to unlock the Armour of Brutus, which looks really nice, but sadly can't be dyed, although neither could the Altair Armour from Assassins Creed 2, lol.
I'm going to try and mop this up, get all the feathers and flags, although I doubt I'll get some of the online trophies, I mean, I've played more and understand it better now, but some of them will be hard, like getting 750 points in a single kill, I can only manage 600 at max, not sure how I'd do this, and I can't for the love of god pull my target into a haystack since they're always paranoid and avoid them lol, then again so do I.
Yeah, overall I've got to say this is the best Assassins Creed so far, I mean, it didn't have as much variety location wise (Just one big map based on Rome, and a few other maps while doing sidemissions) but it looked really pretty, the inclusion of horses in towns and horse combat was great, the Assassins Guild was an amazing feature (Getting a chase from 20-30 guards and then bringing in 6 of your best Assassins to just dive from rooftops and tear shit up is godly) and well, everything just seemed even more polished than Assassins Creed 2. The combat, as I've said before is so fluid and plays so smooth, the fact that you can chain together an infinite amount of executions in one big continuous movement, even switching weapons between them without breaking the motion, is just... wow.

By "we", you're assuming everybody does, right? Well I didn't, I knew that they were making Brotherhood and thought that would just be the end of the Assassins Creed games.Mega Flare":3ct0s45j said:

I was actually unaware of this, lol, but now I already know there's going to be a third, lol. I hope it wraps the story up nicely and not just dump it all on us at the very end.
Oh well, I played the Copernicus DLC today, to be honest people who don't have the PS3 version aren't missing much, it's only like an hour long tops and doesn't add to the story, I mean sure it adds a little extra to the game, but meh, I didn't feel like I'd accomplished anything afterwards. I've also found the feathers and on my way to finding all the flags, I've also got the three gold medals on the VR missions, the running ones were VERY easy, lol. Oh also I FINALLY managed to pull someone into a haystack online today lol, and it sucks because I got 650 points, whereas if I got 750 I'd have got another trophy for it, lol.
So basically all I have left to do to get a platinum is get to level 50 online and get all the co-op bonuses in a single match, can't be too hard I suppose.

Playing Poker Night at the Inventory. I gotta say.. for a poker game, it's kinda fun (or at least as fun as texas hold 'em can get). The commentary is relatively funny, and there's a VERY much appreciated option to just shut off talking completely (for once I hear every comment 2000 times a piece). Seems like a small bug, but this one guy, the Rabbid the guy from Sam & Max, I guess? said a phrase he says to Strongbad, and looked at him even though he was eliminated from the table, even though it was aimed at me..
rofl. Ijust folded on a hand, and Strongbad said "Ohh, folding is the way to go if you do not WANT to impress the ladies" or something to that effect, then he folded himself.
