“Assassins Creed Brotherhood” in game multiplayer

“Assassins Creed Brotherhood” in game multiplayer
Last time I spoke about the story mode of the already famous “Assassins Creed Brotherhood” but now let’s get straight into the multiplayer behind the game. The whole theory of the multiplayer in this game is kill and try not to get killed since that’s what the whole point is, and precisely that is what makes it so exciting. Every time you assassinate someone you need to immediately run off and hide so your pursuer doesn’t catch up on you and kills you. Although at first you think that it seems easy to find your target since a compass is given to you signaling the direction of him, it is very hard to identify your target when he or she hides within a crowd of people, since many of the characters look identical to your target. Ubisoft also had the very nice idea of adding perks and powers to your characters which turned out to be pretty cool. When you are looking for your target in multiplayer you must attempt to be as stealthy as possible, and if you ever are spotted and your pursuer gives up a chase you must immediately turn to running as your option. There are lots of interactive “chase breakers” in the game which allow you to close doors and shut down shortcuts for your pursuer allowing you to get time to both run and hide and maybe escape. Remember the stealthier you are the most points you get. Ok now that I more or less summarized multiplayer for you people I’m gonna talk about one cool little thing they added to the game, and its practice mode. To all you people who think the game is hard to get or to master or are simply tyrying to improve at it practice mode allows you to train your skills on different targets giving you a determined amount of time to annihilate them. There are three types of practice modes and you must practice different skills in all of them. Well that’s enough video games for a while I think. Ill see ya l8r and hope you enjoyed.

"Assassins Creed Brotherhood"

“Assassins Creed brotherhood”

An assassin, and a conspiracy is all a game needs to be both fun and extremely entertaining. Ubisoft decided to make the 3rd game of Assassins Creed. Although the first game wasn’t very good, they had lots of thumbs up with the second one “Assassins Creed II”, but now they’re back with the 3rd sequel and in this small post I’m going to summarize it. The game is divided into two main sections solo campaign and multiplayer online. I’m going to first talk about the solo campaign and its cool new features, afterwards I will focus on multiplayer and other nice little modes Ubisoft added to make the game’s experience much more fun and make the gamer himself better. Ok so let’s begin, you start of as Etzio a young man who already is an experienced assassin. Your mission throughout the whole game is to end the life of Lorenzo Borgia, a powerful dictator who has taken over Rome and plans to take over much more. In the story you don’t only fight the Borgia but also the French, thieves and occasionally the dungeon keepers. The newest and most different thing that differs this game from the last one was the weapons. In “Assassins Creed II” guns are barely even shown since no one had devised them yet, in that game you are only given a special one which only you carry. In this game there are special missions in which you need to destroy tanks, bombers and different artifacts created by Leonardo ds vinci, in addition some guards have guns which makes the game harder. But of course you can’t defeat all this without some help, and there is where the brotherhood comes in. at first you recruit only two “buddies” to fight by your side, but as you advance throughout the game you can end up having about 12 assassins which help you in missions, and if all this weren’t enough the game also includes amazing cinematics making you believe that you are actually walking the streets of Rome in the 15th century. Remember to stay tuned and check out my next blog about the in-game multiplayer, see ya and a I hoped you enjoyed this summary.

call of duty black ops

Call of duty black ops
Hey I’m back, it’s been a while I know, but I’m back and this time there’s a new video game I have in mind. Call of duty black ops is the new hit, following the previous games black ops has nothing to do with modern warfare two but instead this game takes you to the past and you start off in Cuba 1964, this first mission is based on one of the many attempts to kill Fidel Castro. Your name Is mason and you have been trapped by some sort of scientists which are trying to get a series of numbers from you, the whole game is about flashbacks you have while being tortured by these people. As I said you start of in Cuba almost 50 years ago when Castro was the most powerful. As the flashbacks pass you are put to do different tasks, and these tasks have varied years, for example in one mission you could be in 1978 and then suddenly back down to 1971. What I’m trying to say is that this game never stops being exciting because of all these weird twists it takes. I will not mention more because you need to try the game yourselves, but here’s the link to a little video. “the song has a bad word in it btw so just mute it if you care” (Ms. B)

MY SMALL VACATION

MY SMALL VACATION

Where did I go in my small vacation? Well although I can’t call it small but I can call it fast, first came Miami and then new york and although I couldn’t go skiing because of a snowstorm I sure did have fun because 4 days were added to my 5 day stay in new york making that 9 whole days in the big apple, but before I talk about that I just want to mention my stay in Miami and what I got for Christmas… are you ready for this? Xbox 360, some extreme headphones for the Xbox 360, and some awesome games for the Xbox 360. Just what I wanted, but now to be able to play with all my new things I have to get good grades and the problem is that I really don’t know what else to do to get better grades, I mean I try hard, what should I do? Try harder? Maybe… Well, now back to New York. What can I say about it? It’s my favorite city in the world, despite the amount of people that it has new york is a very cool city and although I’m not into those huge places were there’s so much to do that you can’t do it in a week, having more time at the big apple sure satisfied me… sure I didn’t get to go skiing like most people did, but I was able to see times square packed with millions of people. All waiting for the clock to mark 12:00 and then BOOM everyone went crazy. While in my stay we watched 3 musicals which all were pretty cool except for Mama Mia because that is just… I did get to see some hot chicks in the radio city musical and that’s probably why it’s my favorite one.
