Hi all,
Well i’ve been caught up playing AC 3 for the last week so I apologize for not writing anything here. That is seriously how good this game is, really. If any of you loved Skyrim, I mean, who didn’t? Then you will love this game too, lets put it this way, it’s like Assassins Creed in skyrim, only bigger, much bigger.
It’s such an open world, it was three days before I came across a part where I couldn’t access due to the edge of the map, crazy huge this game is. So much to do, the main story is great but the side quests are so many, and it doesn’t get boring, it makes you want to complete everything. Graphics are amazing but there are a few glitches that can be forgiven.
They say you can platinum this game in around 60 hrs, to be honest, if you were playing it properly, investigating everything and enjoying the playtime, you could spend a few weeks on this without getting the platinum. I’m one week into this game and i’ve got around 70% but there are a few hard trophies, and a couple of time consuming ones, so you may as well do what I did, simply enjoy the game, do everything, and eventually that platinum will pop.
Last night I had a go on the multiplayer for a couple of hours and that puts yet another whole new aspect to the game, very enjoyable and very similar to Assassins Creed: Revelations. There is a good tutorial that I recommend playing before actually going into a match, and I see me playing multiplayer for a good couple of weeks, maybe longer. I will also play this game through again, it’s that good.
I really can’t say too much more without giving spoilers away, and believe me, I sooo want to tell more about this game, just go get it, rent it, buy it and play it, you won’t regret it, got to give it a 5 out of 5, nothing bad about it, seriously, you’ll love it too.

Gaming BanterHi all,
Yes it finally arrived in the mail today, and what did I do? You’ll never guess so i’ll tell you, I put it in my system and loaded that baby up didn’t I??? Of course I did. Once over the initial shock that I actually had it in my possession, I started to play, and what can I tell you? Well I can’t put it into words really, you know when you see something for the first time and your genuine reaction is “woooouuw (long wow), that’s my reaction, but that reaction is pretty dull compared to what you feel inside, it’s an amazing game from the outset.
Firstly you notice how much better the graphics are, and no, there are no youtube vids out there that does this game justice as far as the graphics go. After the first initial part, the prologue or whatever it’s called, you end up taking a ship to Boston, no spoiler, it’s just where you go, takes about 70 days to get there by boat but when you get there, this first place is massive, I mean talk about open world, this is like never ending, I spent 2hrs exploring the area before performing the first task and didn’t see everything or come to a place that wasn’t accessible, it seemed like I could run or swim forever, eventually I had to turn back before I lost the initial marker for the first task.
I can see me writing a lot about this game over the coming days, there is so much to do, so many side quests and places to visit, it reminds me of something like Assassins Creed in Skyrim, it’s just huge. I’ve got to stop writing so I can play some more, I haven’t even started playing as Desmond Miles yet, lol.
Will update again tomorrow and over the weekend, hoping to make some videos of this one too.

Playing Uncharted :) |

Gaming BanterHi all,
I’ve decided to start with Uncharted: Drakes Fortune as my first game on my new account, i’ve also started playing Uncharted: Among Thieves because this one is online. The reason i’m playing these two games first is because they came as part of a bundle with my new system and I intend to get the third installment of Uncharted soon too.
Other games I hope to be playing soon is Assassins Creed III and also Bioshock Infinite when that comes out, so will be always playing at least one game online, and for those of you who have asked me what my new online ID is, it is RPG_Reviewer.
Hope to platinum these two games within the next week or so, then i’ll probably replay Dishonored as my offline choice of game with hopefully AC 3 as my online game, look forward to playing many of you soon.

Hi all,
I’ve just been over to youtube and watched this amazing footage of one of the first videos online of the first part of Assassins Creed 3, it doesn’t really spoil anything as it just shows the introduction and part of the tutorial. It’s worth checking out so you can see how good it is compared to previous Assassins Creed games, so if you don’t have it yet this will give you a taste.
There are more of them but if you don’t want to spoil anything for yourself I would recommend just watching the first one, this guy is pretty cool too. And giving you a chance to win a collectors edition AC3 and console, very nice. Hope I win one, lol.

Hi all,
Yes there are at least two gameplay videos of the new Assassins Creed 3 on PSN which I really recommend you download and watch. One is of the city and one is out of the city and surrounding area.
After watching them several times, and yes it is addictive just to watch, I couldn’t believe how everything flows so well, very natural and seamless. I love the part where you can blend into cover, a little brush and you can crouch and become almost invisible.
This becomes part of not only stealth play for assassinations, but also for hunting game so you can sell for profit to stalls in towns.
There are also many new ways to distract guards, like using the dart rope to hang a person which, in turn attracts the guards while you sneak around another way. Also assassinating from moving carts is a new area. Before you could only do this from stationary carts, now you can jump onto and into things while they are moving.
You won’t be able to heal while in battle, although this seems like a downside it is more true to life, you can heal once a battle is over. The idea is to keep all the movement, even in battle, flowing and getting the right moves performed so you can get through in one piece.
Much of it sounds complicated but as with all the great games it always takes a little while to get used to the mechanics of the game but it is always worth it in the end and I think this will take little time to get all the controls down pat.
Check the two downloads out, you won’t regret it and you will be even more desperate to get your hand on a copy of this, I can’t wait, lol. The downloads only take a few minutes on a good connection and you can watch them while they are downloading.

Assassins Creed III |
ByThis game is really going to blow your mind, just like Skyrim did with never before seen graphics and animation, this one has gone even further.
The Ubisoft Anvil Next engine has taken the game to the next level. Everything in this latest installment is bigger and better than ever. More realistic than you could ever imagine a game to be.
The story is set around the 1770’s and the american revolution, you play as Connor, whose mother is American and English father and you are fighting to save your homeland.
This world is massive, going from cities, to woodland and battlefields to oceans. A huge game with an awesome storyline, many new weapons, including more guns. There are also tomahawks, rope darts, knives and more.
Even the weather system is magic and extremely realistic compared to many previous games. The battles are much more detailed and realistic and you can either fight face to face or use your stealth to take enemies out either by surprise or from a distance.
It’s actually quite impossible to describe a game like this to someone who hasn’t seen it, you just have to, at the very least, watch some gameplay or trailer to get where this is coming from. The minute you see the detail, combat, graphics, weather and massive environments your going to just want this game so bad.
On top of all this the new multi-player promises to be the best yet, with new characters, maps and modes to give us even more time enjoying what is an epic game.
To put it simple, every so often a ridiculously realistic game comes out that you want the minute you see it, it just draws you in like a really good movie. Well, this one is one of those, you would have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to want this game.
Assassins Creed 3 releases October 30th but you can pre-order now from Amazon:
Get this one, I will be.

Apology. |
ByHi all,
Long time no talk, yes it’s been a while and I apologize for that. This has been due to circumstances beyond my control.
I actually lost my whole site for the last few months, there was no backup available and we had to work back and forth with our hosting to get our work back up and running, it’s taken a very long time but we are indeed back.
Hopefully this set back will never happen again and I have been using the time wisely. I’ve been reviewing all the latest games, and we do have some really epic games hitting the shelves over the coming weeks and months.
I have also been working on a great idea that I will be talking about over the next week or so, it will be a new site, actually a forum, but an exclusive one. Like I said I will be talking more on that later in the week to get some feedback.
So, games we have coming out soon that just about everyone will be buying or renting, Call Of Duty: Black Ops II, nothing else needs to be said does it? You know everyone will be getting this one.
Assassins Creed 3, wow, this one is going to be awesome, even for those who are not fans of AC series, and who are they, everyone loves these rpg’s but this one will blow you away, seriously.
Borderlands 2, yeah another great one to look forward to, actually you don’t have to look forward to it as it’s just been released, how cool is that?
Ok well this post was really just to aplogize for my long absence so I will chat more about new releases and upcoming games soon, and also about our new venture which I think most gamers will love.
Take care and for those wanting to know, yes I am playing WKC 2 at the moment. I’ve joined the guild “In God We Trust” and it’s awesome, very good help on there, with events, i’m still wondering why more people aren’t playing this one, it’s a really cool RPG and with up to 16 people in a room and up to 6 players questing at once it’s a very nice game.
