Get This Console

Sales

If you are looking into sales alone then the Wii outsells everything. From the opiniopn of someone that has owned all of Nintendo’s past consoles this has easily been their worst submission. The question to ask is why?

The major reason why is simply because they do not give a damn about all of the past fans that made them money before the Wii, the majority of new games are aimed at idiots and Nintendo fans rarely see the light of day. Mario Kart Wii was at best disappointing as they seemed to take out everything that made Double Dash good. Mario Galaxy 2, nice one Nintendo, lets copy your previous ideas.

So as you can see the Wii is out of it.

Online and other

The PS3 is a good console there is no doubt about that and games such as uncharted 2 show just how far the console can go. The online although it is free it is very poor and you always find yourself in a game with people unable to speak English. I do not understan why they did not add language filters? Is Blu-Ray the only decent thing going for the PS3.

The Xbox 360 has the better games, the better online service and just a generally better experience overall. Although the Wii is an okay console it can get very boring very quickly. Get a 360 or PS3.

To make sure these will not have to be replaced for some serious money, get game console insurance or gadget insurance. Of course you could also get some mobile phone insurance while you are at it.

Assassins Creed Directors Review

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

Created by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft, comes Assassin’s Creed. November 2007 marked the release of this game on both the Xbox 360 and PS3 game systems. A PC version was also released in North America on April 2, 2008.

Gameloft created Assassin’s Creed: Altair’s Chronicles which is a prequel to this game. That was released for Nintendo DS on February 5, 2008.

Assassin’s Creed created a lot of hype preceding it’s release on Xbox 360 and PS3 last holiday season. Players are able to control a talented assassin named Altair who is part of a mystifying brotherhood. The brotherhood is assignment is to take out nine main targets located in Jerusalem, Damascus, and Acre. This plot has many more twists and turns and will prove to get much deeper and exciting throughout the game.

Players will first go through a long tutorial where Altair angers his brotherhood when he infringes on their guiding rules. Altair is ridded of his super-power abilities, his wealth, possessions and health pellets. He then has no choice but to execute the main story content and earn everything he lost back.

This games setting is from a third person perspective and players are able to explore and adventure around the city and environment collecting clues by conducting side missions moving an attack towards the primary targets of the brotherhood.

This game has many reviews and tons of information pertaining to the structure of this game and how to be successful. So what we will mention are a few issues we have come across during installation and play. The first being that when installation was first ran on Windows Vista 32-bit, the task failed.

The PC version had worked a bit better when compared to on the game consoles. This was mostly due to Altair’s movement ability with the mouse and WASD keys and aiming capability. The mouse is able to control the camera behind Altair causing him to move any in which direction it is aimed. Of course this would make moving around much easier compared to the control of a thumb-stick.

Altair is also able to receive quick commands using the A or D or left or right keys such as change direction in a 45 degrees angle to either side. This comes in quite handy when alluding guards and executing your escape path.

You are also able to assign tasks to whichever keys you desire. But as a default, the WASD keys will move you forward, backward, left and right. Altair’s head is controlled using the E key, which is also used to move to first person mode to execute necessary tasks. This includes things such as painting threats and to begin eavesdropping missions.

Altair’s open hand is controlled using the left shift controls. This is useful to move aside pedestrians when walking through the city streets, to drop from ledges and mount horses. His legs are controlled with the space bar, and it also allows him jump behind crowds.
