5co77ie Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Assassin’s Creed III hits the UK tonight and Blockbuster will be selling it for 99p as part of a new trade-in deal. Customers who want to make the most of the offer must trade in any two of the following titles: Borderlands 2, Dishonored, FIFA13, 007 Legends, Madden 13, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, NBA 2K13, PES 2013, Resident Evil 6, Rocksmith, WRC 3, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Dance Central 3 or Forza Horizon. The rental specialist will also rent the game out for five night for £6. “The buzz for Assassin’s Creed III has been building for months and we have seen this reflected in the pre-orders that we’ve taken – which are more than double compared to last year’s instalment,” head of games James Morton stated. “We’re delighted to be offering such a great deal for all our customers and anticipate a great response to this in the coming days.” The trade-in offer is valid between October 31st and November 8th. I finished Creed 1 and 2 in around a week - am I likely to finish 3 in 5 days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonTom Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I finished Creed 1 and 2 in around a week - am I likely to finish 3 in 5 days? Depends how long you play it for in those 5 days....most games are doable in that time, defo the main story arc at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windy_miller Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Finally finished Mass Effect 3 and loved every second of it. Not sure why there is so much fuss over the ending. I don't think there is any other series of games that has managed to totally immerse me in its universe as completely as Mass Effect.

I am sure I read somewhere, don't take me 100% on it mind you, that it is a little shorter than the older ones but more in depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5co77ie Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Shorter? I finished the story arc in 2 in 48 hours! I don't do extras/bonuses/collecting weevils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonTom Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Yeah I like the Assassins Creed games but longevity of story is not one of the strong points of the series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcademicPistol Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I was recently involved in market research discussion group for Deus Ex and they have a new game in the pipe line that looks promising for fans of the other games.

Purple Monkey Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) I was recently involved in market research discussion group for Deus Ex and they have a new game in the pipe line that looks promising for fans of the other games. Hope you told them that lead characters who wear shades indoors with long black coats and speak in gruff, hushed tones hasn't been cool since The Matrix, and these days borders on being as camp as Christmas.

Spindles Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Brilliant. I'd tell them that the trailers for their last game were much, much better than the game itself. I've been enjoying NFS:MW, the online multiplayer delivers exactly what I'm looking for, now I just need to unlock vehicles and mods to get the best from it. Sadly it's the first game that's made me turn my AA and detail settings down from maxed in a while, still it looks beautiful and is smooth as silk at medium settings, but with everything full it looks insane.

I knew nothing about the game before hand, when he said what it was called I thought he was saying 'deer sex'. And no I didn't quite go that far in case they didn't pay me, however when they were showing us designs on how the main character might look like I (and panel) strongly said not to go with the matrix one. Hopefully in the new game you will see augmented camels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windy_miller Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 Woop! More Deus Ex please! loved the last game, but yeah, monkey is right about some of the styling being a bit dated these days. Also the thing that annoyed me the most was the switching between cut scenes and gameplay with completely different lighting. There's a bit towards the start of the game where you walk into your boss' office, and there's a very moodily lit cutscene. It then flicks back to gameplay in a brightly lit office. It killed all immersion straight away. Anyway, Dishonored is my new Deus Ex. Got it on the weekend and it is basically a beautiful steam punk version of Deus Ex. Why are sneak-em-ups so much fun, and why don't they make more of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted November 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Havent no. Never a big Halo fan anyway to be honest. I downloaded a shitload of ROMs though - all C64 games, Amiga, Snes and Megadrive. Thousands and thousands and thousands! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Stud Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Just played the first chapter of Halo 4 - really good to be back in Halo and the multiplayer is good fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t8yman Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Halo 4 is pretty god damn wow so far. graphically outstanding - the best looking game I have seen on the xbox 360 so far. the sound is great, and the weapons feel like they should have felt since forever. im only one and a bit levels into the campaign, but im already loving it. I'm playing on Heroic, and have already decided I will be replaying it on Legendary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Liam Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 I'll be getting Halo 4 when it comes down in price. More than enough to keep me occupied in the meantime. In fact, I'll probably be getting the Combat Evolved remake before Halo 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
