Right now I'm playing The Godfather by EA. Good game, I'm hoping to get a ps3 in a few months. Is the godfather better on ps3 or xbox? I am really frustrated on which one to get.

Some random thoughts and opinions on some of the games I've played over the past few months.

-- The biggest disappointment of the entire year was ASSASSIN'S CREED. How can a game that got so many things right get so many MORE things wrong. The parkour-style free running is amazing and incredibly rewarding. The combat system is top-notch, with a slower, timing based feel to the swordplay. And the graphics are truly a sight to behold, both from an artistic standpoint and a technical standpoint. The animations are truly life like.

Then there's the story, which, quite frankly sucks. The whole sci-fi swerve could have worked brilliantly, but they decide to spoil it in the first 5 minutes. They could have salvaged it, but they chose to end the game with the worst cliffhanger in history. After 40+ hours of repetitive gameplay, they cut you off without warning.

More on that repetitive gameplay. Each of the assassinations consists of two parts; an investigation and the actual assassination. The investigating is fun the first...oh...two times. But when you find that you have to conduct the same fucking eavesdropping and flag fetching and pick pocketing missions for EVERY assassination, with absolutely NO deviation...well, you get my point.

So instead of being the ground-breaking experience it should have been, ASSASSIN'S CREED is hampered by repetitive gameplay and a botched story. I really can't recommend it. I give it a 6/10.

-- The best game of '07, by far, was CALL OF DUTY 4: MODERN WARFARE. The single player campaign was fantastic, but I've spent most of my time playing online. The online multiplayer is the most rewarding online experience out there. Not even HALO 3 comes close. And no, that's not a bold statement. It's merely a fact.

-- I've also been putting in some serious time with BURNOUT: PARADISE. Seriously, if you have a PS3 or 360, pick it up (along with COD4).


"Growing up my dad was like 'You have a great last name, Galifianakis. Galifianakis...begins with a gal...and ends with a kiss...' I'm like that's great dad, can we get it changed to 'Galifianafuck' please?" -- Zach Galifianakis

+1

The only *little* problem I have with CoD4 if that the single player game was too short. But the online more than makes up for the shortness. And yes, the mutliplayer is great. I could play online for hours on end.

True, COD4's single player campaign was short, but it pulled no punches. It wasn't afraid to show the ugly side of war, and it showed that victory can come with a steep price. The story was brilliant, and made even better by the near photo-realistic graphics. This is a game that begs to be played on an HDTV.

I'm currently playing Final Fantasy VI (originally Final Fantasy III in the U.S.) on my Game Boy Advance. It's one of those games I watched my brothers play over and over but never got around to it myself. Now that it's on the GBA I can play it a little each day during my lunch break.

I love those early RPG's before they started adding in all the story movie sequences that pretty much just showed off how incredible the new graphics have become.

COD4 is incredible, definitly the multiplayer, everytime i use a different gun it feels like a new experience, great game and easily the best game of 2007 (on PS3).

Asssasins creed was good first time around but i havent touched for a long time because of COD4. Nevertheless it was a good game IMO even though it feels hollow near the end.

Hell YES Easter Bunny

It's like GTA 1 and 2 but a billion times better. It really kind of stretches the possibilities of DS games because the city is pretty big and the gameplay is awesome. I guess the drug dealing aspect is pretty deep and there are mini games to play. I haven't done that much yet but I'd say this will waste so much of my time....
