Hello there!
Well, what a couple of days. I have done lots of gaming, collected a few last achievements here and there and made a ton of progress with AC.
Really enjoying AC. I think the most satisfying thing is sneaking up behind guards and silent killing them with the short blade. I think the bass swoop and change of angle really make the moment. of course, i may be ruining the atmosphere a little... I watched a Louis Theroux documentary at lunch today where he visits a Miami "Super Jail" and all the inmates were using gangland terms like "Strap up" (fight), "in the paint" (place where they fight) and my personal favourite GABOS! (Game Aint Based On Sympathy=an excuse to beat up and maim weaker prisoners). I am blaming that for my sudden outcry of "SASSED YO!" when i killed a guard.... and every guard since.
I can see why people find AC repetitious though.. If i wasn't such a completionist then i probably would not have such an urge to push through all the cities to get the DNA bar filled. I realise i am doing the same thing again and again but i am noticing the subtle changes in difficulty and the combat. I appreciate it.
In my achievement hunting this morning i got the last few Portal 2 achievements. Enjoyed getting those as there were some nice hidden locations and story reveals that i will not spoil here.
I reckon i am about... half way through assassins creed now?.. i hope to complete it by the end of the week leaving the weekend and next week for MGS4!
off to sass some fools yo...
Are you playing the original or Brotherhood? I really liked Brotherhood as the ability to recruit and utilise a team of assassins broke up the formula nicely. Great blog, btw.
ReplyDeleteIts the original! :) going through my list you see - check out my first blog entry ;)- http://videogamevoyage.blogspot.com/2011/03/i-will-begin-with-my-plan.html
