Assasin's Creed 3


Where Ezio Left off Connor Picks up!


     One of the most loved characters in the recent history in the would of gaming is most probably Ezio Auditore, so of course there were a lot of gamers that were hit hard by his "retairment" at the end of Assassin's Creed Revelations. His story is most certenly finished, but the next game inthe series of Assassin's creed is comming in October 2012 and it will bring a closure.
    
     There was a lot guessing on what would be the next setting for Assassin's Creed. There was talk of it being in Ancient Egypt or Feudal Japan but none of these came true. At the end the main Character ended up Being Connor Kenway.
     Connor is by origen half native-american half British and in the game we will follow around 30 years of his life. The story of his erlyest days is sad when his family was brutally attacked by the colonists. After this connor's hatred for the colonists grew.
     Connor's weapons consist of two pistols for medium ranged combat, a tomahawk axe for hand to hand combat, a bow and arrow for long raged combat and the hidden blade for assassinations.
     Assassin's Creed III's engine will be able to support vary large scale battles.
     A few small but important things that will be in the new game in the series will be more lively cites, the possibly for hunting, the addition of it being harder to walk in snow and the posibility of a tree branch braking under your feet.

Guild Wars 2

     The only fantasy MMORPG of some Korean company which truly succeeded in the south is guild Wars. The secret of it's popularity, except the quality and mechanics, lies in that you don't need to pay the usual 13 euros per month. The biggest difference between Guild Wars and other MMOs is that Guild Wars has no open-world where players can freely roam, but is organised as a community hub with pre-set areas for PVE and/or PvP. Because of this some people do not agree that it is an MMORPG and claim that it is a classic RPG with community elements, and multiplyer.


     Guild Wars II totally changes this concept because the game is created as a classic MMO with an open-world in which dungeons are more of an exception then a rule.

    The game is staged in a fantasy world called Tyriu, 250 years after the happenings in guild wars I. The victory against the Grate Destroyer in the final expansion of Guild Wars I (The Eye of The North) did not bring a long lasting peace and stability in the world. Elder dragons, a race of ancient dragons from the legends had risen from the ground and destroyed the world.
