Any diff guys ? –_- Well, thats not it, Playstation so called Motion detector, “ Playstation Moves “, is far more accurate than the Wiimote, its uses the “ Playstation Eye “ to detect the Colour Orb on the Move Controller.

Well, not to say that I a Wii Fanboy or anything, I like PS3, the game on its awesome, same goes to Wii, I like Wii, but seriously sony ? Playstation Moves ? Its just totally a rip off from Wii, don’t guys have any honor ? Well atleast Microsoft tries something different with the Project Natal.

What I trying to say is, the Playstation Move is nothing more than a Wii rip off, well, I know those Moves Controller has more accurate motion detecting, of course they had, Wii was released for how many years already, during that time, the motion detecting technology is not that great until now. Nintendo also released the Motion Plus last year. To gives the motion detecting more accurate, but its still not fully utilize. Well, the game developer still not using this function much.

So, still think its different than the wiimote? how about watch this video.

Of course after this im going to get full of flaming by all those Sony Fanboy. Hell I don’t care. Cause its the truth. Some of you might thinks its normal, yea business, people copy others people works. But well yea, I was hoping something different. Oh well.

Assassin’s Creed 2 Screens

49307

Assassin’s Creed II (or Assassin’s Creed 2) is an upcoming sandbox-style action-adventurevideo game being developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft, the sequel toAssassin’s Creed. It is set to be released worldwide around Christmas 2009 on the Microsoft WindowsPlayStation 3PlayStation PortableWii and Xbox 360 platforms.

Ok, I’m not really a fan of Assassin’s Creed. The first 1 I still didn’t finished it cause its get too repititive. -_- Anyway, I walking around throughout internet and found this, so I’m going to post about this :D Anyway here it is. 

I hope this time they will makes it better, and off that eagle view something. Yeah, the climbing tower part. Its sooo boring :o

Anyway, here is the detail about it.

Gameplay

 

It has been revealed by Game Informer that Assassin’s Creed II will enable the player to swim, allowing Ezio to use the canals of Venice as hiding spots for as long as the character can hold his breath, and to drag guards into the water as a means of assassination. Leonardo Da Vinci will be featured in the game, providing a host of new weapons and contraptions for Ezio to use. At one point in the game, the player can access da Vinci’s flying machine, keeping airborne using thermals from fires lit by friends gathered previously in the game. It has also been announced that there will be many more mission types (approximately sixteen) for the player to engage in.

According to ScrewAttack, there will be many new weapons to choose from including an axe, a hammer, a mace, a spear, two different sword types, a halberd, and two smaller blades,some of which can be stolen from enemies, since Ezio won’t carry weapons all the time (except for his hidden blades and throwing knives). The game will apparently have a much more sophisticated combat system. The player will have to use a variety of tactics depending on what type of enemy he is fighting. According to Game Informer, dagger wielders are quick and can use the same free-running tactics that Ezio utilizes.  Brutish armored troops are strong and heavy, and can do lots of damage. Halberd wielders are “paranoid” and “keen of their surroundings”, they will probe hiding places if they think the player is nearby. 

The health system has been adjusted to allow for a more dynamic and participatory expierience. Meaning, that the memory sync system used in the first game only helps to recharge your health up to a point. More grevious injuries will require a trip to one of the many street-side doctors, who can help you return to full strength.

As well as using water as a hiding place, Ezio can hide in a pile of wool or a fish cart or other places.  Unlike in the first game, the player can now blend in with any crowd rather than a group of scholars dressed in white. Like in the game Hitman: Blood Money, there will be a notoriety system, and the player will become more notorious as Ezio completes more missions. However the player can go on missions to decrease his notoriety, such as assassinating witnesses, using bribes or getting rid of posters of Ezio’s face.

A night and day cycle has been added to the game, giving the sense of a passage of time.

Plot

 

While not much is known of the plot yet, it has been confirmed that the player will assume the role of a nobleman and assassin named Ezio Auditore de Firenze. Like in the first game, Ezio is an ancestor of Desmond Miles, as well as being a descendant of his ancestor Altaïr, the modern assassin that has been captured by Abstergo Industries. Ezio is a young noble who lost his family to rival families.

He is shown to have dual assassin’s blades. The game is set to take place in Renaissance Italy, during theCarnival of Venice in the year 1476, which is 285 years after the first game. Like Assassin’s Creed, characters based on historical figures will be present in the game including Leonardo da VinciNiccolò MachiavelliCaterina Sforza, and Lorenzo de’ Medici.

Locations mentioned thus far as being included in the game are VeniceFlorence, the Tuscan countryside andRome. Specific landmarks include St Mark’s Basilica, the Grand Canal, the Little Canal, and the Rialto Bridge.

Well, I’m looking forward to it and hopes its bring more than the previous installment.

Till then.
