  • Challenge Accepted: Four For February

    untitled-270rif

    2013 is going to hit gamers like a punch in the gut very soon. Between March and May there are no less than five triple-A games set to hit consoles. [amazon_link id=”B004FS8LYK” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Tomb Raider[/amazon_link], [amazon_link id=”B007FTE2VW” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Sim City[/amazon_link], God of War: Ascension, [amazon_link id=”B002I0H2AG” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Gears of War: Judgment[/amazon_link] and [amazon_link id=”B007CM0K86″ target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]The Last of Us[/amazon_link] will cerainly occupy a lot of your free time. Then you have the new consoles to look forward to.

    If you are like me, you probably have a stack of games that have been started and put aside for a later date. Well that is what February is for! An idea was given on a gaming group I am a part of on Facebook (taken from a story on Kotaku) called “Four for February” in which we pick four games that we decide to finish in the 28 days of the month to catch up on the “Pile of Shame” we collect as gamers.

    I will be attempting to do this beginning next month and encourage all of you who are besieged by unfinished games crying out for your time to do the same. Let us know what games you would want to attempt to finish in February. Here are my four:

    [amazon_link id=”B0076ZPYPI” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Sleeping Dogs[/amazon_link]

    [amazon_link id=”B0050SYLRK” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Assassin’s Creed 3[/amazon_link]

    [amazon_link id=”B005THAX5Q” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Aliens: Colonial Marines[/amazon_link]

    [amazon_link id=”B0050SWTAQ” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Need For Speed: Most Wanted[/amazon_link]

    Will you accept the challenge? Or let your games remain to look sad on your shelf?

    One of the more interesting announcements before [amazon_link id=”B0050SYLRK” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Assassins’s Creed 3[/amazon_link] released last year was the announcement of a three-part DLC  pack called The Tyranny of King Washington, which takes a look at an alternate reality in which George Washington becomes mad with power and transforms into America’s king instead of first president.

    Today it was announced that the first part of the DLC pack would be released on February 19th. The title of Part 1 will be The Infamy and costs $9.99 (800 MS Points) or you can buy the Season Pass for all the DLC for $29.99 (2400 MS Points). For the eight of you that have Assassin’s Creed on the Wii U, the DLC will be available later this year.

  • Assassin’s Creed 3 Announces Season-Pass DLC And An Evil George Washington?

    DLC Pack Will Have George Telling Plenty Of Lies.

     

    Ubisoft has announced that Assassin’s Creed 3 will be selling a Season-Pass for it’s DLC that will save buyers a total of 25% and a week early release on the first downloadable pack. But the biggest news seems to be that three of those packs will be a big single player add-on story entitled “The Tyranny of King Washington” which sees America’s beloved first president become mad with power and places himself on the throne as America’s king.

    “As the revolution comes to a close, a new and most unexpected enemy emerges. Driven by the desire to secure the fate of the colonies, the greatest hero of the revolution, George Washington, succumbs to the temptation of infinite power. The new King is born and his reign leaves no one untouched. To return freedom to the land our new hero must dethrone a tyrant he once called friend.”

    The Season Pass will include 5 DLC packs in all and cost $30 or 2400 MS Points.

    [amazon_link id=”B0050SYLRK” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Assassin’s Creed 3[/amazon_link] releases on October 30th for 360, PS3 and PC with the Wii U version being available on launch day, November 18th.
