Yes Ezio  is a Master Assassin . After assassin creed 2 the welcoming of a new hero to the creed ezio a kid who lost his family and innocent  becomes an assassin and tries to figure why his father had been murdered for and then he realize his destiny that is he is the prophet  that all the Assassins brotherhood was waiting for. Now in Brotherhood  thinking that is fight is over and being victorious Ezio goes to his uncle's villa  thinking its all over but  its soon shattered when his  uncle's villa is be attacked by his enemies Borgia Templar who just march past in and kill his uncle. Ezio in that vengeance goes back to Roma and fights and also to get back his creed together.

The gameplay and the story is good but not as interesting and dramatic as assassins creed 2 . You learn a lot more in this game who actually you are and what is your role and above all answer to you question in assassins creed 2

Alan Wake 2

                                         A Physiological Action  Thriller  

The game has a strong and creative story telling. this game has to played if you like a thriller game especially if it is in the dark where the darkness is through the town of bright fall in this game  using of light is as important as your health use light wisely so that you are not bombarded with physio.

Mass Effect 3 Review

                                                          
The Mass effect 3 has a remarkable conclusion to the trilogy.  This game is about how  Shepard Saves planet Earth. Well let me brief you about the Series mass effect was about time and place and finding or discovering the milky way and finding new races and places and learning about their culture. In mass effect 2 it was more like understanding your old friends and making new ones more of emotion is involved in this game but Mass effect 3 is more of making the right choice it puts you in situation where you decide for the greater good there are dramatic acts where it sometimes leaves you in tears.

Now lets see the game as a whole the story of the game is brilliant it has equal balance in the plot and  character. It brings in time travel option where you have to go to the past and present to make your choice and brings a wonderful and unexpected endings. there are various  level as progress which leads to a more of challenge during the combat.Its not only stop there the art design in the game is fantastic which bring a great detail in color and composition . As you play the game ......Well the character evolve or seem to have its life of its own. So i personally fell this is the best sci fi role playing game which got about 9 out of 10 rating.

Batman: Arkham City Review

                                               Batman: Arkham City                      

To start off the Batman Arkham city has a irresistible world where in  you can actually free roam the game more of an open world type unlike the Arkham Asylum where you can do a bit of free roam as the  game progress but never get the exact feel of an open world game. so this game has its advantage for those who like to roam  the streets of Arkham city. the world is  rich with  detail and secrets and ya you can deviate yourself from the main mission and can do side quest if you like to prolong the game. so this is a short brief about the game play what more is there that it has rewarding combat and movements you got to play that to experience what is to be a Dark Knight and wow if you like using gadgets in your games to solve crime this game is the best at it of-course its batman but have to tried it is the question . And also the most important thing is the introduction of character in this game like Jokers returns and others such as Penguin, Mr. Freeze, where you got to face off with them during the game. But there is a DLC content in this game where you play the role of Catwoman which i think is kinda cool.This game gives you its best adventure experience all u got to do is Get out there  stop the crime be The Dark Knight save Arkham City

Fallout New Vegas


Fallout New Vegas is the follow up to the hit RPG Fallout 3. Fallout is my favorite franchise of all time so maybe my review is slightly biased but I can'tbelieve the reviews for this game on most sites. First off, New Vegas is buggy, very buggy but it shouldn't hinder your experience with this game very much if any at all. I'm only about 40 hours into the game but from what I have seen so far the game is great. New Vegas is HUGE. There is more interaction with the inhabitants of the city and there looks to be more weapons. Also the most rewarding of my experience so far, Weapon Mods. You can add silencers, scopes, bigger magazines, and Mods that even improve overall damage for that weapon.
        Combat is pretty much the same. Your going to have little luck with aiming on the run or even standing still for that matter. The game says you need to stop, crouch, and aim for maximum effectiveness of your weapon but who has time for that with a 500 pound Supermutant charging at you? VATS is still your best bet at taking down foes and is just as rewarding as it's predecessor. You can target specific limbs with VATS, even shoot the gun out of the baddie's hands if your good enough.
          New Vegas looks great. A giant leap forward from the drab and depressing Fallout games of the past, but traveling through the desert feels more lonely than ever. Your actions in the game determine how certain towns and factions feel about you. I helped the town of Goodsprings defeat their enemies which gave me the 'Idolized' status there but in return the gang i fought now hates me so you have to use strategy more than before.
        I could go on, and on about New Vegas but the bottomline is it is still a great game with TONS of stuff to do. You have to expect bugs with an eviroment so expansive. Yes New Vegas does play like Fallout 3 but shouldn't it? Fallout 3 was such a huge success(Game of the Year) that it makes no sense to fix what isn't broke. The new makeover and content is amazing and the game shouldn't be judged poorly for being so much like it's previous installment.

NFS The Run



It didn’t feel like we were playing Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit for very long before EA came out and introduced us to the next game in the franchise, Need for Speed: The Run. Now here we are several  hours later watching the credits roll on our HDTV. So was this game worth the relatively short wait?
Need For Speed: The Run is a strange one really, if I had to describe its purpose then I would probably call it a stop gap between Hot Pursuit and the next game in the series. The reason I think this is because there just isn’t that much meat too it. I mean sure, outside the single player you have challenges based on the routes you unlock along the way, multiplayer modes and the autolog, however we had most of this in Hot Pursuit, so was there really any need for yet another game in the series? Let the campaign tell us the answer.
The story behind The Run’s campaign puts you in control of Mr Jackson “Jack” Rourke. When you join him he is in a rather bad way, having fallen on the wrong side of the Mafia; not a good place to be I’m sure you will agree. Anyway, after escaping The Mob, an associate known as Sam Harper directs him to a competition known as The Run, a 3000 mile journey across the continental United States, starting in San Francisco and ending in New York. What’s good about this is that the prize for coming first is $25,000,000, which is enough to pay off his debt and give him a rather comfortable life.
As you would expect, coming in first place and therefore winning the cash is not going to be easy, after all, you do have to take care of 200 opponents, avoid the police, the mob and put up with a whole lot of mundane cutscenes and QuickTime events which see you pressing buttons based on prompts to get yourself out of certain situations. Thankfully what The Run does best is the driving, giving gamers access to a whole load of different vehicles over the games 10 stages.
Each stages is broken down into three or four different events, sometimes more. Most of the driving will have you trying to gain positions in one way or another, for example, in one race you may be tasked with getting to the finish line ahead of ten other cars in order to gain on the overall leader; while in another race you may have to catch an opponent and keep the lead until the time runs down, before repeating the process with the next opponent. There are many other types of events too, such as racing to checkpoints and going one on one against boss characters.
Obviously you won’t always win races and if you do then its simply a case of the stage being over, with your only option being to restart. Thankfully to combat this, the developer has included a rewind feature. The amount of times you can rewind is based on the difficulty you choose and when used throws you back to the nearest checkpoint, giving you another chance to win. What annoys me most about this feature is that it seems to take forever to load and get you back in the race, while on occasion it will also place you in a position from which its just impossible to win, causing you to have to start the race again.
To mix things up a little the developer has thrown a few spanners in the works in the shape of the police and later, The Mob. Obviously since you are speeding about the US, the police aren’t happy about it, therefore during many of your races they will be in your face, trying to knock you off the road or throwing road blocks in your way to try and stop you winning the race. Once The Mob are involved things get even tougher, since they shoot at you and later, even use a helicopter to try and bring you down.
Thankfully despite all this nastiness, you do at least have some tricks up you sleeve; during a race, you can drive into a petrol garage and you will be able to swap cars, going for speed or muscle depending on the environment you are driving in. Another bonus is that when you can gain experience during a race, allowing you to increase in level and unlock perks such as nitrous boost. Increasing in level also gives you even more ways to gain experience, later awarding you for ramming opponents and police cars off the road, or for avoiding road blocks. As you gain in level you will also unlock other items such as custom profile icons, backgrounds and the occasional vehicle.
As is always the case in NFS, the driving in The Run is a joy. The cars are fast and fun to go behind the wheel of, offering a great, arcade-like experience. The roads in each stage are also a pleasure to drive on, while also offering a wide ranging experience, placing you in city streets; wide open country side and hazardous, snow covered mountain tracks, which have you biting your fingers to the bone. There can certainly be no complaints about the driving, it’s just a shame that there isn’t a little more variety in terms of the campaign.
Outside of the campaign you can also take part in single player challenges. Each challenge is based on the stages you unlock as you play through. Challenges consist of various events from the simple such as finishing first in a race to things like beating the clock or a rival. Depending on your time in each challenge you will win a medal and as per Hot Pursuit, any time you set will be placed on the Speedwall.
Obviously, thanks to Autolog and the Speedwall, friends always know your score, so can challenge you on any of the stages you have unlocked. You can also check out friends individual stats and of course any recommendations which the game has for you. The Autolog section also has an area where you can change your profile and view friends individual stats.
The final section of the game is the multiplayer. Here you can set a playgroup by inviting friends, or you can just jump online and take part in a random event, trying to meet any of the objectives which are available to view before the race starts, which in turn will earn you XP.
Like I said near the start of the review, Need for Speed: The Run is a strange one. We could have done without another game in the series so soon as to be perfectly honest, Hot Pursuit is still an amazing game with a more than sufficient multiplayer aspect. If you don’t own Hot Pursuit then The Run is definitely one to consider, however if you are looking at The Run for the campaign alone, then you may find its petrol tank is half empty, rather than half full.
