They've always looked good to me but for some reason I've never played any of them.

[Chevrolet Fanatic]

I love them, the platforming is always great.

New info on the next Assassins Creed game.

First details of Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood & boxart unveiled



Ezio becomes Master Assassin, takes on Rome.

Ubisoft lifted the mask off Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood. The title serves as the sequel to last year’s successful Assassin’s Creed 2. The game features the same protagonist (Ezio) and this time around he will fight against the powerful Templar Order as a legendary Master Assassin and must struggle his way to Rome, which serves as the capital for the enemy and strike them a death blow. As a Master Assassin, Ezio must guide the entire Brotherhood under his leadership as it will require a combined effort to topple the tyrannic Order of the Templars.

Brotherhood will, for the first time in the franchise’s history feature an Multiplayer component aswell. It will allow players to play as the Templars and train them in the art of assassination to get rid of the Assassins forever. They can choose from a bevy of unique characters, each possessing their own unique skills and weapons to compete against others from the world over.

An exclusive first look at Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood is featured in the July issues of PSM3 and Official Xbox 360 magazine, available in the UK on June 3 and June 10 2010 respectively.

Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood is being developed by Ubisoft Montreal in collaboration with other Ubisoft studios for the PS3, Xbox360 and PC. The game is scheduled to hits stores in late 2010

I loved the first, but II is epic, it builds so much on the first.

New Info:

Call of Duty: Black Ops - details overload

Vehicles, weapons and story facts have appeared. And here they are

Words: David Houghton, GamesRadar UK

We told you yesterday that a big Call of Duty: Black Ops reveal was due later this month, via our UK sister magazines Official PlayStation and Official Xbox. Well details have come through a bit sooner than that, through a series of reports by USA today.

Visiting CoD studio Treyarch, USA Today has been demoed certain parts of Cold War-set game, and revealed some pretty exciting factoids. We've collated all the most exciting and important ones for you, and created a great big list of Everything You Need To Know.

* Four-player co-op is confirmed.
* You'll play at least two characters in multiple international conflicts.
* American and Russian black operatives have been consulted. Given the above points, we reckon that means you might play on both sides of the conflict
* Exact setting dates haven't been revealed, but the game will play out over a long period of history.
* As black ops teams were privy to superior intelligence and had free access to any equipmenent they wanted, weapons and ammo will be more varied this time around. A military crossbow has been confirmed so far, but it's not just for sniping. CoD:BO (unfortunately aromatic acronym) allows on-the-fly ammo changes for some of its weapons, so the bow can also be fitted out with exploding arrows.
* There's also an AUG assault rifle that will take multiple attachments.

* The SR-71 Blackbird is the new AC-130. During one level, the recon plane is used to observe terrain from above, with the player directing the squad below with a pointer in order to help them avoid enemy Russian convoys. Immediately after this, you'll take control of the squad on the ground.
* Treyarch head Mark Lamia has said that the game is 'epic in scope', being focused around a story that 'has meaning and character and will be multi-threaded'. Perhaps more of an indication that Treyarch will be giving the Cold War an ambiguous, mutli-sided treatment?
* CoD: BO is using the same full-actor motion-capture technology as Avatar. That means that not just gestures, but whole performances are captured, right down to facial expressions and line delivery. Expect some serious emoting this time around.
* It looks like Treyarch is following Modern Warfare's lead in terms of big action movie set-pieces. Cliff-diving and rappelling through windows are already in.

Red Dead Redemption PS3 lands exclusive content
May 14, 11:24 AMVideo Game ExaminerMatt Furtado



Gamers are getting eager to play the upcoming Red Dead title and it looks like the PS3 version just landed a couple exclusive pieces of game content that may make multiplatform owners pick the PS3 version over the Xbox 360.

Very similar to Batman: Arkham Asylum, which had the exclusive feature of playing as the Joker, Red Dead Redemption will also feature some exclusive to hopefully sway the consumers mind towards the PS3 version. It did work with Batman and the title ended up outselling the Xbox 360 likely due to that reason. The exclusive content will be Solomon's Folly Gang Hideout and Walton Gang Outfit -- according to the retail box. The content is included for free and packed in the game's casing.

(Special thanks to Jack_burt0n for the tip.)

RDR looks sweet.

I miss my ps3 now.

[stonehenge]

Finally watched the Bulletstorm video. Looks interesting. Not sure how much I want yet tho. Looks fun but like the kinda thing that would get boring quick. If they do some nice level design and story then it could be great though. Will keep an eye on that one.

I finally beat Bioshock 2 earlier lol and only have 50% trophies

Found this: http://www.gamestop.com/gs/specialty/tradeins/save40/

Called GameStop and they said even tho I already paid in full for RDR, if I trade in 2 games I'll get $40 cash back So might do it, but I hate giving up games, I always feel like I'm gonna want to play them again after I get rid of them.

Oh and this shot made me jest:



Can't wait to hunt sheekins.

[Chevrolet Fanatic]

I beat Bioshock 2 on Friday finally also, it was an awesome game, got the good ending and then looked the others up on youtube to see them. I got 69% of the trophies on my 1st play through. I'm such a hoar.
