A-Z Challenge Letter A

So today starts APRIL!!!! YAY!!! And that means the A-Z Challenge is HERE!!! It took me forever to pick a theme for my challenge. I didn't want to do books or animals or foods (though I thought about it a lot). And no crafts. So my theme for April is.................... GAMER!!!! That is right I am going to do a different video game (over all the games I've played over all the years going all the way back to NINTENDO. The old one the lil grey box you blew into the cartridges to fix the fuzzy screen. Yeah that one forward .But no XBox I don't play that) So lets get the party Started!!!

A is for Assasian's Creed 2





(I've never played the first one, haven't beat this one yet so haven't played the rest of them either.)  Assassin's Creed II is a historical action-adventure open world stealth video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. It is the second video game installment of the Assassin's Creed series, and is a sequel to the 2007 video game Assassin's Creed. The game was released for video game consoles in November 2009.

The frame story is set in the 21st century, with player-controlled protagonist Desmond Miles escaping from Abstergo Industries with an employee, Lucy Stillman, after being forced to relive the genetic memories of ancestral assassin Altaïr ibn La-Ahad through a machine known as the "Animus". After escaping from Abstergo, Desmond enters a device which is more advanced than the original Animus, the Animus 2.0, and relives the genetic memories of ancestral nobleman Ezio Auditore da Firenze, who lived during the Renaissance period of the late 15th century in Italy. The player controls Ezio, who becomes an Assassin after his father and brothers are murdered by a traitor to their family. While controlling Ezio, the player can explore game renditions of Italian cities, regions, and landmarks in open world gameplay.

Assassin's Creed II was met with widespread acclaim, garnering aggregated scores of 91% for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 and 86% for the PC, from review aggregator Metacritic. The game was praised for its stronger emphasis on open-world exploration and interaction, non-linear gameplay and greater mission variety compared to the first Assassin's Creed. The game was also credited with improved non-player character AI and combat mechanics, and its new economic system allowing players to purchase accessories, armor, and improved weapons through the course of the game.

Okay my take on the game is it is addictive!!! You have so many different quest and memories and puzzles and things to find and do and figure out. I'm currently at 44% of trophies completed. And I've already logged in a good 50 or more hours into this game. Time just seems to go by so fast once I start playing. It eats all the thoughts in my mind!!! I was going to start playing with the first one but a few people told me it was really a lot of repeating the same type of thing over and over which just sounded boring to me. So I went with game 2 and I couldn't be happier. When I get 100% complete I'll start Brotherhood, and then Revelations, and then the new one. And the new one comes out this fall so I better get started on beating these other games lol. (I play on PS3 if you have a PS3 Network name and want to be friends hit me up on comments and I'll hit you up on the PS3)
