Looking back at.....Assassin's Creed Revelations!

A lot people love the Ezio story in the Assassin's Creed games, with the conclusion of his story in AC Revelations you can imagine that a lot of people really wanted to play this game. But did this game deliver? Well let's find out by taking a closer look!


The end of an adventure.


If you played Assassin's Creed 2, AC Brotherhood and then AC Revelations then you're pretty much invested in the main character Ezio. You've seen him at happy moments and at terrible moments, you probably laughed and maybe even cried with Ezio. It's really a great adventure that comes to an end in AC Revelations. You start in Constantinopel, now better known as Istanbul, and fight your way through templar conspiarcies and investigate the tracks of another assassin called Alataïr (the main character from the first Assassin's Creed game). What's absolutely fun is that you can also play as Altaïr and see what happened to him. So in a way it doesn't just end one story but actually two stories. Both stories seem to be connected and it's for the player the find out what's going on.


Multiplayer.


What I also really like about AC Revelations is the multiplayer, it works well and gives you the chance to test your skills against other players. It's actually a lot of fun to see how you can trick other players and beat them with some nice moves. One of my favourite moves is the decoy, this let's you make a decoy of yourself that runs away and a lot of people fall for that and attack the decoy leaving them exposed to a counter from you. But you can also be more agressive with bombs or poison darts. The more style and skill in your execution the more points you get. But in the top three you'll get more hunters that try to kill you and that makes it harder for you to get your next target.


Great game!


I can definitely recommend this game to you, especially if you played AC 2 and AC Brotherhood because this game fits nicely with those games and ends the story of Ezio. If you've never played an Assassin's Creed game then I can recommend starting with AC 2 or even the first Assassin's Creed game, get familiar with it and work your way to AC Revelations. It's worth your time and it's absolutely a lot of fun!

Button bashing

It seems that more and more games want you to smash on the buttons of the controller, which seems like fun but knowing that this weak piece of plastic can´t handle much it´s not the smartest way to handle your controller. In the good old arcade days I could smash on buttons, ok nothing too crazy but at least those machines had a lot more resilience than these weak controllers we have now. You have to pay a small fortune for one of them and they fall apart with the slightest bit of force you use. After smashing a couple of controllers out of frustration I learned to be careful with them, but when games force you to be an agressive button basher it doesn´t really help. Button bashing is nothing new but I do seem to see it in more and more games, even games that could easily do without this abusive way of treating your controller. Instead of button bashing people came up with the idea to press a certain series of buttons in a sequence, I first saw this in God of War which was fun. But s...

Movie Monday: Mr & Mrs Smith

There are movie that might not look good at first, when you hear about it, but once you see the movie then you know that it's a fantastic movie. What really made Mr & Mrs Smith so good was the acting of the two main stars in the movie, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. They had so much fun making this movie that it's an absolute joy to watch the movie. Which is good news for people that are looking for a fun movie to watch! Married to a spy? The story of Mr & Mrs Smith is pretty simple, a man is a spy and marries to a woman not knowing that she's a spy too. Apparently both of them are unaware of eachothers activities until their paths cross in their spy life, which leads to a lot of fighting and explosions. It's really not the action that makes this movie so much fun to watch but it's the humour. Mr & Mrs Smith is the type of movie that shows that a movie can be ten times better when the actors are actually enjoying themselves making this movie, instead ...

Sinful Sunday: Why are you so serious?

When I play a game I don't want to be serious, I just want to have fun and relax. Honestly real life is serious enough and I don't need that in games. Who cares who wins or who loses, just have fun and that already makes it great! Unfortunately there are gamers that take certain games way too serious, so serious that they literally forget to have fun which is quite frustrating to deal with. These kind of players are so serious that they probably left the fun behind when they started the game. Sigh... Serious gamers are lame gamers? There is nothing wrong about being serious, but I think there is a time and a place for everything. When I play a game with my friends then I'm not being serious nor am I serious when I start up some random multiplayer match. Sure it's nice to win but it's not everything! Things become more serious when there is something at stake, for example in ranked matches or during a tournament. I understand that things are more serious there an...
