The BBPS has recently reported on a story Kotaku recently reported about Assassin's Creed 2 rumors. These rumors suggest that the game may be taking place in Venice in the time period of around 15th to 16th century, and as the post suggests, it could be taking place in the time when the Black Plague was occurring. I just don't understand how they are going to get there with the way the first Assassin's Creed ended.
I'm scared.....where's my Commander Shepard!!??!
I helped my friend connect his Wii to the internet at a party and decided to take turns playing SSBB online.
We knew right from the start we were screwed.
i decided to take the first battle with Ike. And only a few seconds later did we realize what type of skill we were up against.
You know how some people who call people that are ownage "asian"? Yeah, we just kept screaming that at the TV. We strive to get a place higher than 4th place, but it never happened.
Until, one lucky game, where one of my cousins face two other people and a CPU. We just kept focusing on the computer, and he got 2nd place. We celebrated with 2 straight cups of diet coke, and then continued playing.
I got the controller next, where the game, once again, only had two human player, but no computer controlled player. We spawned on the old Zelda castle Melee stage, and run towards each other.
And started taunting.
We didn't know really what was happening. The other two players were taunting, so I just joined in. It might have been the wierdest 20 seconds of the game. Until I decided to attack the person playing Fox. He runs away, running off the stage and commiting suicide. I was like,"YES, I GOT A KILL". So I just decided to stay alive as long as possible. There was a close call, but the game ended with me getting FIRST PLACE!
After we got bored of losing and lagging out, we decided to play on the 360. I brought my hard drive, and we played the LOTR Conquest demo which was kinda boring(oh, just a reminder, he doesn't have Live at all, Gold or Silver). We attempted to play the FEAR 2 demo or the Halo Wars demo, but both failed for some strange reason. Then we decided to play co-op on Resident Evil 5. It was one of the most hilarious experience ever. My friends are terrible at the game, my mouth accidentally slipped about the chainsaw battle at the end of a level, and they freaked out, especially since they always played as the girl, which put a LOT of pressure on them. When I told them to turn around so they could cover my back so I could activate the chainsaw man, they went CRAZY! They were just screaming and didn't want to try, which got me feeling crazy. Now I knew how Jason Bourne felt in the Bourne Ultimatum when the guy ran out of the room when he told him NOT to. Sadly, my friend died when we were cornered by the chainsaw dude, but not before some hilarious running around!
We also tried Geo Wars 2 co-op, but they still suck. The screen was too small so it was kinda hard to know where you are. And since we were connected to Live, we were forced to play the trial version, I got really pissed when I got 11,000,000 points in Deadline but was not able to put that on the leaderboards(that's 4,000,000 points more then my original highscore, and I didn't even have my cellphone to take a pic).
That was my weekend. Now I have to go for another 4 weeks without video games again.....wish me luck!
Just to let you guys know, after reading BBPS for about a minute, I almost screamed.
Two details were publicly released(thanks, BBPS)
The game will take place after the game ends(though it was not described how long it has been since the first game)
The game will come out early 2010(some dissapointment, some awesomeness though!)
And my favorite detail of them all....
YOU CAN TRANSFER CHARACTERS FROM THE FIRST GAME! SWEET! I WAS KINDA EXPECTING THIS BUT THIS JUST MAKES ME....i dont wanna say.
More details in the links to the BBPS.
I need to get at least 1600 microsoft points now.
I played these games, and I have had an epiphany:
Lumines
Street Fighter II
both for Xbox Live Arcade.
I played both trials at my friends house, and I LOVE THEM!
I played Lumines first. I didn't expect that I would reach the actual end of the trial game without losing. And I seriously enjoyed it. 20,008 points. I'mma go play it again in 7 and a half weeks.
I also played SFII with both of my friends, and although the both are just ok at the game and only beat me once, I had a ton of fun.
AND I FINALLY LEARNED HADOUKEN! WOOT-EN!
Right, Right-Down, Down, X!
Look at what I stumbled upon on the interwebs. A game about hitting a guy with a bike as far as possible, with a couple of twists I still don't understand but kinda do. You know home-run derby from Super Smash Bros.? Yeah, it's like that, but it just requires a small click-and-hold from the mouse button.
Try to beat my record of 3145.67m
No, instead, that was an update that was released a few weeks ago to a very few number of Xbox Live users that is NOW released to the public. Update 2.07363.0 was apparently a fix to a problem with audio problems with HDMI audio cords. Hey! Be happy! You still have your golden lancer, and now for those who have been waiting for this update has finally come! Yay!
Thanks, Joystiq!
Listening to the Xbox 360 Fancast, I just confirmed that the Golden Lancer you might've downloaded a few days ago is going to be taken away. Xav de Matos, writer for Joystiq [Xbox], was talking about it on the show and has said that he recieved an email from a Microsoft PR team that has said that it was a mistake and they are planning to take it away from people that have downloaded it someway. They were supposedly only supposed to give a few downloads away, but somehow somebody screwed up.
They haven't said how they are going to do this, or when they are going to do it, but the idea that Microsoft can take out any downloads you might've downloaded is actually kinda creepy. Don't you think so?
All in all, I think Microsoft should just let it go, and let us have the lancer. :) Or you know what? Just give it to every one, jeez. I mean, it's a big deal for some of us but not MOST of us.
