They are not good. They suck balls. At least the two I installed and tried.

Batman is one of the most boring piles of crap I have ever played. Even worse than Tomb Raider (pick one, or all). All you do is walk and hit the Spacebar to talk to people. Every once in a while you have to flick your cape at some retarded henchmen, but I'm convinced that it is only to make sure you haven't fallen asleep. Really a waste of an hour that I will never get back. It's like watching a horrible movie that stops every once in a while, and makes you hit the SB, just to make sure it is still annoying you. Uninstalled.

Assassins Creed is almost as bad. At least the guy is part spidermonkey, so climbing shit held my attention for a few minutes. When it does get old, the game is basically over. Another Tomb Raider. Walk around and talk to people and look for things. Maybe chase a guy, and button mash with the swords once you catch him. Big whoop. It's hide and go seek with a spidermonkey armed with a sword or two. Also uninstalled.

Got both games for free, and still feel shorted because of the couple of hours spent playing them. It's hard to believe that people actually pay money for these. Even harder to believe that people would waste their time playing them. I'd rather watch grass grow.....at least I could get a nap.

/rant.

AC2 never felt like walking around talking to people, or chase and fight to me *shrugs*, AC got horrible quick as it seemed to be made to be a test of patience, instead of a game. Hey do the same crap a few more times, so you can do not the same crap. Yay! Thanks AC, that fancy machine can't cut out the repetitive bits and side games (they aren't really even quests imo)?

I played for a little over an hour. I got to a part (quest....challenge....whatever) where I had to crouch in some grass (which made me invisible.....lol) and sneak up to some guards and take them out 1 by 1. It was ridiculous. If I were a guard, and it was my job to watch things, I think I would not only notice the creeper in the grass, but I would likely notice the guy being eviscerated by said creeper with a pair of swords less than 20 feet away. This is where I uninstalled.

Do NOT be dissin Tomb Raider. That latest reboot version kicked ass.

I just pulled the trigger on my new rig... Like you spending that much is killing me on the inside just a bit

Haven't and won't play the new one. I'll just take your word that it is not like the rest.

And the rest are horrible. Terribly boring and pointless wastes of time. Walk all the way across the map, put the three bullets you have into the Bengal Tiger, and flip a lever. That lever opens a drawbridge on the other side of the map, which hides another lever. Make your way paste the tiger, this time with no bullets, and walk climb and jump for an hour to reach the new lever. Pull that lever, and it opens a drawbridge on the other side of the map, which hides another lever. Over and over and over again. After a few releases, they made her tits bounce, so you at least you had something to look at during your lever quests. I'd rather pound sand up my ass than play a minute of any Tomb Raider. At least I wouldn't have to backtrack.

Yeah this one isn't puzzles and shit. This one played out like a movie. And it was awesome. And I hadn't played a tomb raider game since TR2 I don't think.

Then you may like this one.....I dunno. Just not my cup of tea. I like games I can compete in......shooters, racing games, and of course hockey (the only true sport). While many were playing Dragon's Lair (also sucked), I was playing Super Mario Brothers (ruled \m/ ) and Excitebike (also ruled). Ahhhhh the arcade days (these were places people would go to play video games....for the youngins ). So take my opinion with a grain of salt.....I also thought Zelda sucked. I would have much rather been crashing my F-14 into the carrier on Top Gun for the eleventy millionth time.
