 Ubisoft have unveiled four new ways to investigate about your targets marked for death in the PC version of Assassin's Creed. While the next-gen version had eavesdropping, pick-pocketing, interrogation, assassination and flag collection they've decided to increase the variety.
Now they'll be rooftop races, escorting creed members, the destruction of merchant stands and archery assassinations to aid Altair with information about his primary targets. | |

 Actor John DiMaggio who voices Marcus Felix has spilt some beans on upcoming Gears of War 2 with teasing news. More weapons, news beasts including fights with the huge Brumak and more characters, as well as reprising his role as leader of the Stranded, Franklin.
DiMaggio also went on to hint that the story will be going a lot deeper so those looking for more answers had better keep a close eye on this November when this Xbox360 exclusive hits the stores. | |

| Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: Elements review | |
| Posted: 25.02.2008 13:44 by | Comments: 7 |
 Dark Messiah of Might and Magic (PC) arrived with mixed reviews from critics and players alike. Brought to us by French developer Arkane Studios, and based on the solid, if aging, Source Engine. Well, the game has been ported to the 360, and in the process received some extra levels for the single-player mode, a tune-up for the multiplayer mode, bug fixes and some console port downgrades (inherent to the PC-to-console switch - we all know the intrinsic inferiority of the console vs the PC. Muahahah). We did not review the PC version, however Emmanuel Brown played the game for the 360 and shares his thoughts on the experience.
