At work, I'll have to DL these when I get home. I hear good things about the BD demo. I'm looking for to AC6 though. My brother had AC5 and AC0 on PS2 and they were really good games.

Dangit. I called in sick to work today, but I have no broadband to get these great games. AC6 + BD = win.

Despite everyone saying MS @ E3 was bad, BD and AC6 demos surely make up for it. Plus ME being dated (Nov) is good enough for me.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Man I am definatley looking forward to AC6, that was one of the reasons I was considering getting a PS3 and now I dont have too! BD looks amazing too.

That's great and I'm downloading them now.

But MS really needs to get that Halo 3 trailer on XBL in HD.

That crap YouTube-sized screen I was watching last night just isn't going to cut it for me.

No AC6/BD impressions yet?

I was watching MS's E3 earlier, and what I saw wasn't bad at all.  I think everyone is disappointed about the Halo 3 trailer and using that to characterize their entire show.

How is AC6? A friend downloaded BD, he liked it...said it felt old-school with the 9 different shadows to use...but confusing with the over 30 attacks...

I'm more interested in AC6 though.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

gametrailers.com has HD vids I thought.

AC6's graphics are all that they were made out to be. When you get right down on the city, the textures on the ground are a little weak but that's to be expected; the map is pretty huge.

The city rendering is incredible. The buildings are different and it's laid out like a real city, there isn't any of that cutting-and-pasting of textures we saw in previous generations. The buildings look different, you can follow roads, etc. It even has suburbs surrounding the city.

The gameplay is still a little up in the air for me. There are a few things I didn't quite understand like why they didn't include the in-cockpit view in the demo (while we've seen screens of it earlier) and exactly how the targeting works. I think a tutorial and a little more time with the game would fix my targeting question, though (it's not really an issue, I'm just unclear on how it works exactly).

The game is pretty though. Buzzing underneath the Golden Gate Bridge (er, I mean, "King's Bridge") and through the downtown area is pretty fun. Overall, I still have a few questions about the overall game but thus far, it's a rental at the bare minimum.
