I was having a boring wednesday night and have been playing my favourite games to death. Thats when it occured to me, why not play some of my old favourite. I'm of course talking about the old super nintendo system from 1992, coupled with my favourite classic game Super Mario Kart.

Unlike most conventional games, in the Assassin's Creed series, you play as the bad guy. Sent on missions to kill people of interest, you have to overcome obstacles, drawing as little attention to yourself as possible. Scaling buildings, blending in with crowds, silently listening from dark places. All these become challenging within the game. Again the is a series of games, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood being the third one now. They have improved the gameplay, cinematics, and artificial intelligence. Aswell as just add to the different ways you can stay hidden.

World of Warcraft is an MMO(Massive Multiplayer Online) role playing game where the player creates a character of their choosing to explore this massive online world. Joining up with other players and making groups, you can work together to kill bosses and dungeons. It is the most popular online game in the world with over 10 million people playing it.

Bungie are bringing out the new Halo game. Halo is a first person shooter that has been around for many many years back when the first Xbox was released. This was back in November of 2001. There has been 4 halo games prior to Halo Reach. Halo reach started being created back in 2007 when Halo 3 was released, and there has been a lot of anticipation for the release of this game. It is going to be the last of the Halo series so they have worked extremely hard on the game. Redoing the way the Artificial Intelligence works, redoing the graphics and changing so much of the way the game is played. Along with this they have also added new features such as vehicles, weapons and a new style of map alteration.This is going to mean that creating your own vesions of maps will become alot easier.
It can also be played online where you can play a range of different game types from Capture the flag to King of the Hill. The online side is probably the most fun part of the game, however the storyline that has been developed over the Halo series has people sitting on the edge of their seat to find out what happen's at the end. Anyway there are a few images i uploaded for the release of the game.
Heres a video of the trailer if you want to check it out
