Join the Brotherhood

Assasin’s Creed II was easily one of my favorite games of 2009. But after spending countless hours assassinating countless people, do I have the fortitude to go back into that world already? The new trailer for the single-player campaign below makes the thought very tempting. With the inclusion of an interesting looking multiplayer mode, I’m not sure I can resist. How about you?

The World of Firefall

I still have World of Warcraft flashbacks, but the game’s fantasy setting never fully clicked with me. Science Fiction is what really gets me going. And in my humble opinion, there hasn’t been a successful action oriented science fiction MMO since, well ever. Firefall will hopefully change that. It is described as a team-based MMO action shooter being developed by Red 5 Studios, which is comprised of former Blizzard employees. The cinematic trailer is below, but the real meat is in the 11 minutes of kick ass HD gameplay footage Red 5 was kind enough to provide. Jump thru to view!
