Assassin’s Creed (PS3)

Assassin’s Creed (PS3)
It’s easy to see why there was so much fighting amongst the console manufacturers to try and make this game a format exclusive. Where early launch titles may have disappointed this game not only looks like a next generation game but it plays like it too. Taken at face value the story casts you as an Arabic fighter in 1191, out to assassinate the nine Western leaders of the Third Crusade. There is more to the story than that though making it more than simple historical adventure it first seems.
Since it’s developed by many of the same team behind Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, it’s no surprise to find the game using many of the same ideas. With the bold claim that you can climb on or over anything in the game world that sticks out more than two inches, this allows incredible freedom of movement, with a style of acrobatics heavily influenced by Parkour/free running. The game also innovates in terms of combat, with each of the face buttons controlling a different area of the body, rather like a marionette. As such one button controls the feet, one your open hand, one your weapon hand and the other your head.
As an assassin stealth plays an important role in the game too, but here it’s often a case of hiding in plain sight as you mill around inside large crowds of people. Everyone will react to you realistically though, so if you go around pushing people out of the way, or even killing them, the crowd will react and report you. With stunning graphics and genuinely innovative gameplay this is destined to be one of the most important releases of the year.

Customer Review: Over-hyped, but worth playing.
Needless to say this game is very repetitive compared to those of similiar genre. Climb up a view point, complete 2-3 missions and assassinate the target. Yeah, that is the concept of the game. The environment is very beautiful and well-detailed, however, and the world is very interactive. Unfortunately the game loses much of its potential, thanks to Ubisoft’s sloppy plot design.
Moreover, the Xbox 360 version is better. It may have a slightly lower framerate, but there are no vsync issues (screen tearing, whereas PS3 version suffers from this issue, a lot.
If you don’t mind playing the most repetitive game out there for PS3, go ahead and buy it.

Avoid at all costs…
Seriously, it’s repetition city. If the games producer spent more quality time on the game instead of promoting herself we might have had something to shout about.
Save your money for Drake Uncharted.

Customer Review: BEST RACING GAME EVER
Ridge Racer 2 is a great racing game, from power sliding round corners to going at 500 kmh! It has loads of different cars, some special cars too which look pretty snazy! The music is fab. I know the songs almost off by heart after only a month! The graphics look real life, and look amazing in the night scenes. It is not too hard or easy either, though it gets a lot harder through the levels. My friends find this game wicked aswell, and they usually find these sort of games a bore. Anyone who is looking for a fun, thrilling racing game, here it is. I can only give praise for this game as it is so great!
Customer Review: Rail Racer not Ridge Racer
well first off the graphics are good. Only problem i’ve seen is the dark levels. the psp screens not very good at representing black scenes as theres too much artifacts(trail of black after object is passed). the music really stinks i know halo and zelda won awards for music and that there the best. but the music in this sounds like a high voltage wires been jammed in a systhesiser and the speratic noises that come out have been recored. Come on people cant we follow in the footsteps of EA and get real music instead of the horrid nes music? So theres a tonne of cars. they all handle the same and you wont notice that there different. tracks are fun. Now handling. sorry to say it but this is rail racer. the aim of the game is to get a power slide going to get round corners. nice idea but when you do that the game helps out way too much. its like you’ve been fasted to rails when this happens. so no spinning out or sliding into the wall. in fact you cant get a power slide with the car facing left to go round a right handed corner. this seams to get worse as the courses get more tighter and the cars more faster and prone to skid. also you can get the car going faster sideways on a straight than the computer can go facing forward?!?!? this is the first driving game ive had on the psp and control wise im a bit disappointed. but this game is fun for a quick blast and worth a play even after all them faults probably not worth top buck thought. find it in the bargain bin.

Customer Review: Pretty darn good
It’s got to be said that since F197 games developers have had a shocker in putting such a popular sport into a good, playable and realistic game. Look no further than this offering. Granted, it’s last years driver set (i.e. no Hamilton), however in all categories I really rate this game. The graphics are very fair for the PSP standard (think equal to Pro Evo for example), and its only occasionally that there’s a bit of lag… usually when you crasah into the back of a car by not braking adequately! Gameplay is relayed by a very responsive and realistic car handling set up - drivers aids for beginners and an extensive manual car tuning option for the specialists. Race days are peppered by on-track incidents, and qualifying sessions always hold a risk of rain! In summary, a very playable and detailed game. N.B. the career mode is purely driving i.e there is no ‘Chief Engineer mode’ that is advertised
Customer Review: very good handheld f1 game
This is a good handheld game of F1! This has some pretty decent graphics in the game and the handling of the car is quite good. The only downfall I have is no WiFi and laoding times suck!
