Just a disclaimer, this is easily the best explanation and rationale I’ve ever read for the overcrowding of games today. I’m starring it for later reading, when AC Syndicate comes out.

I read through some of the comments following the YouTube video, and in my opinion you’re absolutely right. The amount of sincere, venomous Hate that followed was so alarming that I had to back out of there, nice and slow. Growing up, talk shows like this were (and still are) an age old institution. Classy men in…

It really struck me during the intro to AC 3 with the “Kenway Head-Fake” that not even Ubi really knows the difference between assassins and Templars anymore.

First words out of my mouth, friend. The first AC (still my favorite) would translate wonderfully to film. It tells you everything you need to know about the present day situation with the Templars, and offers a great (and even vaguely accurate) origin story for the assassins. It surprises me that they didn’t choose…

So late to the game, but I cannot WAIT for Google’s smartcars, amiright?

I'll just leave this here. ^^

Ditto!

Touching upon the "Friends and Family" segment, my sister heard that I was trying to expand on my retro gaming collection, so she kindly offered up her old NES, in its original box, from her attic. After blowing about a decade's worth of dust off the thing, I slid the unit out of the cardboard, and flipped open the…

I must agree, it seems like Ubi took a double-take at AC3 once they'd released it, and realized what had gone wrong. I mean, I understand what they were going for;

"Just for the story, really - it HAS to be better than AC3, which felt like a massive chore to get through."

I agree with you wholeheartedly. AC1 gets a large amount of flak, but I remember playing through the game, casing the assassination zone for nearly an hour, not doing anything but planning the kill. It made its execution that much more intense and enjoyable.

Can we get this person to the front of the line please?

I'm definitely on board with you. There was an underlying current that flowed through FF7 that made it particularly special to a lot of people, including me. I don't need a rebuiding, or a reimagining, only a mere refurbishing. Freshen the graphics, clean up the dialogue, and give me the same game I fell in love with.

Thank you for that. You brought my blood pressure down.

Thanks for the honorable mention. ^^ I plan on having ALL the fun when I get home.

The importance of slaves cannot be overstated here.

I've heard that when cats squint, that's actually their physical representation of smiling. If that's so, I've got a major case of the warm and fuzzies right now.

Thanks very much for the kind words. :) I thought you raised some very valid points, and deserved a respectful answer.

I read your comment, sir, and I shall now reinforce it with a lofty and overly exaggerated *snapSNAPsnap* of my fingers.
