TV commentary:

The Borgias- Started watching this because zarathustra94 and turdburgler kept wanting me to. I'm enjoying, though it is a little weird since they're the bad guys in Assassin's Creed so I'm used to them being the enemy, but I'm finding myself rooting for them here. Also, this show's version of Micheletto is pretty cool, but it makes me kinda sad because he ( Read more... )

So here's some gameplay on the new AC4:

It looks friggin amazing and all, but honestly, is it really Assassin's Creed at this point? I mean, it seems more like a really awesome pirate game, where you get to occasionally perform assassinations. Like even without the Assassin's Creed connection, the whole piracy thing seems good on its own.

ME blather- Got the gunslinger banner today, so the last actual weapon challenge left is the sniper one. Hey, I saved the best for last. I'm kinda cheating though, I'm using the Juggernaut in London vs Cerberus to get this one to pop. I love the Infiltrators, but they are just way too flimsy to complete the sniper rifle challenge solo. It would ( Read more... )

TV commentary:

Psych- How appropriate that the two college students' catch phrase was "Boobs", cause I could not stop checking out that chick's. I mean, its on thing to be wearing the low cut white tank, but to have the low cut black bra underneath? C'mon, how are your eyes not drawn to that ( Read more... )

So Ubisoft's released info on Assassin's Creed 4, which will have pirates:

Hey, the naval missions in 3 were pretty fun, so I don't mind having more of that. Anyways, looks like you're actually going backwards in Desmond's lineage- the main character seems to be Edward Kenway, i.e., Haytham's dad and Connor's gramps.

I like his look:

TV commentary:

Clone Wars- Wait, I'm thinking the traitor has to be Barriss. I mean, they dress similarly, she basically tells Ahsoka to go to the place where she got set up and ambushed. It just that Barriss gets killed during Order 66. So, she's obviously still in the Jedi order in the future. Unless she's never exposed, or she was being ( Read more... )

TV commentary:

Nikita- Heh, Birkhoff has a Mordin figure. Nice to see he's a ME fan. Anyways, Amanda concocts a plan to mess with Division by framing Sean for the CIA director's murder. Heh, there's a CIA analyst chick, who they think is the next Ryan, blundering into Division. But given she's played by the Center Stage chick, who's played bad ( Read more... )

Ooh, I'm as giddy as a school girl about Bioware finally announcing the single player DLC, Citadel. Obviously, this takes place in the citadel, and it sounds like you might actually get Wrex and Miranda back as squadmates, at least for the missions in this! It also sounds like you're getting meatier love interest stuff, which is good, because it ( Read more... )

One of the frustrating things going from the AC games to something else is the urge to hold a button down to run. Well, I guess in ME you can do quick dashes for a certain amount of time, but its not the same. Also, not being able to climb obstacles.

TV commentary:

Glee- I swear, the writers must be trying to piss off what remaining viewers they ( Read more... )

Having gotten the last pivot in AC3, could finally start mass effect. Hmm, it sounds like to get the "goodest" results most efficiently, you have to play through a couple of times so you don't have to spend points of charm/intimidate and just earn the free points you get through paragon/renegade choices so you can allocate your skill points towards ( Read more... )
