It’s heading to be stupidly hot here in Sydney this weekend. I’ll be hiding indoors and playing games. Will you?
Much of my time will be spent with the excellent Assassin’s Creed II, a sequel that keeps surprising me with the huge strides it makes over the original. If you, like me, found yourself bored by the repetitive and, frankly, dull mission mechanics of the first game, but loved the free-running and the sheer size of the world, then I’m confident you’ll find the sequel far more enjoyable.
I’m also planning to get in some more Demon’s Souls and finally get around to spending some time with the new Ratchet & Clank.
What will you be playing this weekend?

funny.. melbourne has been stupidly hot all week, and not it’s cooled down dramatically for the weekend… thankfully..
I don’t think i’ll have much time to play this weekend unfortunately… i’ll try to sneak in soem monster hunter freedom unite or Batman AA.
Monday will be much better as i’m hoping to have a made around for our “gears and beers”night.. gears may be replaced by borderlands though. But seeing as borderlands doesn’t rhyme with “beers” it will just stick to the traditional name..

ha!
Left 4 Bread night? ahem.
Creed and Weed night? no.
Call of Duty and booty? no.
Halo and Bordeaux?
What about “Cans & Borderlands night”!
I’ll play a bit of MW2 myself and NSMB Wii to wind down before bed (MW2 multiplayer is far from a lullaby).

Definately some four-player Mario and even L4D2. Despite its censoredness, it is still a very, very fun game. Get that multi action happening asap.

I’ve finished off Call of Duty Modern Warfare this morning, just in time to pick-up the the 2nd.
I’ve also been playing Race Driver: GRID, which i’ve pulled out from the back of the cupboard and was throughly enjoying it.

Assassin’s Creed is AMAZING! I loved the original no matter how repetitive it was. I just loved exploring and climbing!
But this is just so much better. Weaponry, Armour upgrades. Love earning money from the little town and upgrading it. Looking for treasure. Chasing thieves who steal from you, then happily slaughtering them and falling to their death.
Just buy it already!!!!

Still haven’t cracked open my copy of Brutal Legends. Playing AC2, Borderlands and Torchlight. My copy of Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty is in playtime purgatory. Really want to finish that before I start on R&C: A Crack in Time. Games, games, games.
