Damn, a survey for a 50 point VC game and I have to fill in enough surveys to get the 1000 points I need for the mario galaxy soundtrack.
I may get carpel tunnel but that album must be mine.
This is pretty cool, I can get points for VC games downloaded 3 years ago.
"What. The. Fuck..."
...LEO finished a game?!
Congrats. To bad that ending was a cliffhanger, you must now finish the sequel.
Ugh. I think I'd rather just watch an Assassin's Creed movie. Not that it wasn't a good game, it just got to be sooo monotonous after the half-way point.

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu
It's all lies. I still have not got my points from filling out about 20 surveys a month ago.
It does, after a certain point. Even though the main mission design and structure are vastly improved, and the villa offers a nice way of controlling your progress, and throws a few RPG esque elements into the mix, a big part of the game is still a collectathon of epic proportions. Ubi Montreal needs to make side missions more interesting. Assassination contracts become monotonous after a while, races are unneeded and beatings sound good only in concept.
Okay one more. This is actually a news story from today (I did not post it above, not newsy enough).
"When Acquire announced that it had acquired the rights to the Gladiator franchise, everyone was all, "There's a Gladiator franchise?"
(Yes, there is, and it was apparently owned by Ertain).
When, after debuting Gladiator Begins at the Tokyo Game Show, Acquire announced that the game wouldn't make its November release date... well, no one really cared.
Acquire's marketing department didn't even seem to care about the delay, as they began the game's download content right on schedule as if the delay hadn't happened.
So how do you market a game that was pretty much guaranteed triple digit fist week sales?
"
Link for more.
I'm not exactly sure he will. Ezio WILL be in the game, they say --BUT-- they also say there will be multi-player in the game. I'm thinking Ezio will be in there just as a playable character in that mode.
Or, like the Altair sequence in AC2, maybe he'll be a kind of flashback?
After seeing the full ending, I'm 98% sure Desmond will be the main character of AC3 --AND/OR-- Desmond will discover DNA sequences of ALL the Assassin's encrypted in the game and play a chapter as each one of them.
Just because he's going back in the animus at the end, doesn't exactly mean he's going back to Ezio.
This article from a couple of days ago makes me laugh:
Rare to let more publishers 'borrow' characters
Thursday 14-Jan-2010 2:29 PM All-Star Racing won't be the last non-Rare game in which creations will appear, studio tells CVG
Can you imagine how depressing that must be? Maybe there is no-one left at Rare who cares about their characters? "We're too busy making avatars and new menus for XBL - anyone want to make a Banjo game for us? Killer Instinct anyone?"
Why can't SEGA lend out Sonic to Grasshopper Manufacturing for a few games?
Because Travis would proceed to decapitate the hedgehog while screaming fuckface.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileWe've seen this before. Starts with banning IE, next thing they'll be goose-stepping into Poland.
Yup, which is why I gave it a 9.3.
Ouch, man! No need to be THAT harsh!
Go out and rent Darksiders this weekend, dammit!
I NEED to hear your impressions!
Ernesto thinks you're going to be moaning with pleasure when you play it, so we need to capture that on a podcast.
I have yet to talk about Bayonetta, that will have me moaning a lot. I have games from christmas I need to play, I need to get to those.

They instantly credited my account after each survey.

What the hell guys, first you get me hyped, now you burst the bubble.

I wonder if rare have a chance to keep up its mascot characters? I mean if they don't keep them relevant they are going to be like trophies in a museum.
Anyhow my bro just texted me with a worrying message. He said his 360 has the RROD. This makes it 3 broken machines for him. He said he will "never buy anything from Microsoft again". I had to have my machine replaced because of the RROD. This is sad. He said was thinking of binning the machine and selling off the games.
I hope not, because some of the games he has are mine!
Anyone who has seen the Gracie collection Gorgeous collection in Animal Crossing city folk, look at this.
