hmmm.....nothing much to blog about today.....no news worth mentioning but yeah still having fun with Assassin's Creed II and Splinter Cell: Conviction......so if u arent playing it yet....do so.....get the games on anything but if u are like me SUPPORT PC GAMING!!!!!!!!!!!
im looking forward more to the rebirth of Medal of Honor than the next installment of Call of Duty......and also hoping that MOH kicks COD's ass this time around.....although the COD is a gr8 franchise and i dont want it to end anytime, i just want some other modern military shooter to dominate the scene for a change.....
this post shud be titled a little late impressions coz ive played like 3 or 4 hours of this game......and enjoying it A LOT......this is exactly wat a sequel should be like: familiar and different at the same time.......so whats to like about this game: multiple ways to assassinate enemies, treasure chests, tons of stuff to buy, u can dye your robe in different colors and lots of side missions, conspiracies galore.....whats to dislike about this game: it takes a long time for u to become an assassin and do the fun stuff.....thats because Ezio (the new main character) isnt an assassin like Altair from the start but slowly becomes one due to the events that happen in his life......overall an AWESOME game......oh yeah the always online DRM might give u headaches too.....
so played through a couple or more hours of Conviction and the things to like about this game are the way the story and objectives unfold in front of you.....its all text but the text appears seamlessly on the walls, containers and buildings around u and thats not all, flashbacks in the form of movies also play on the walls etc as you are moving across a level, its a great new way of storytelling that keeps u engrossed in the game all the time, writing about it doesnt make it feel special so u have to watch it to appreciate it.....then there are the executions: one bullet kills in slow motion, interrogations: scripted brutal events where u beat up an enemy to get answers, the freedom to clear a stage of enemies in watever way u please, finally, how the screen turns black and white when u a
yes sadly this week also sees or rather does not see any high profile games being released on the PC.....Disney's racer Split/Second is coming out on the PC which has gotten a score of 8.5 by IGN so seems like a promising game.....will have to wait and see what other sites have to say about that game.....other than that Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands makes it way on to consoles and handhelds but sadly not on the PC :( the game releases on the PC in June......next we have a Dragon Age DLC titled Darkspawn Chronicles which lets u play as the Darkspawn but i didnt like Dragon Age so im not that interested in this DLC either.....finally we have Fallen Earth Zero (an RPG), Legio (an RTS), Sword of the Stars: Complete Collection, Shrek Forever After and EVE Online: Tyrannis making up for
