Anyone here plays Medieval Total War 2? Best historic war game ever. And there's still plenty of room for improvement.

Fav. Faction: France- great commanders, great calvary, surrounded by enemies, a fun time to be had.

Nope, Right after the Woglinde ist destroyed there is a 80 minutes cutscene. It shows The Elsa for the first time, and how KOSMOS and followed by that Shion and Allen make contact with her. After that it's about the contact subcommittee and how Ziggy reaches the Asteroid Pleroma to rescue MOMO. All in all 80 minutes, I think 2 chances to save and no interruption.

I stopped the time twice, because I was suspicious of how long it was.

Rock Band scored a massive win with the newly announced DLC. Wolfmother, Weezer, The Clash, Queens of the Stone Age, the Runaways, the Pretenders and Radiohead are all win.

I just saw the gametrailers.com Review of Assasins Creed, and it seems as if they did ALL the mistakes I feared the most.
They created this great crowd, but the enemie are more stupid than apes. If you go stealth (One button) immediately after a kill, no enemy can see you at all. You can stay right beside the cropse and wait for the next enemy to investigate the scene too kill him without any resistance. Nice that you can use crwod skills without a crowd.
The battles are completely dull, once you get the counterattacks. One hit kills that are much to easy to do. And the enemies attack one after another, or just stand there without doing anything until you act.
+great story
+great atmoshpere
+great leveldesign
+Free running feels and looks really nice
-bad gameplay.

Yeah, I think they missed about all the points in this game. But I think I will still play it.

^ Sounds like a rental to me.

I got a PSP over the weekend. Castlevania is great and I'm enjoying Silent Hill. Somehow Silent Hill still manages to be intense even on the small screen. I always thought it was the visuals that got to me, but it must be equal parts audio and video that create the feeling. It must be that track that sounds like a demon laughing at you in a creepy way that created the intensity.

I also got Brave Story and Final Fantasy Tactics, but I haven't had time to play them.
