Here’s some quick news for today
One console to rule them all.
An executive from EA has recently said he would like to see an end to the video game console wars. Well I’m not sure if he said "an end," but I do know the executive said they would like to see only one video game console on the market. Of course this has people talking, and asking "is a one console world for the better?" Some say "yes" others say "no" and some say "I don’t play video games get way from me." My opinion is we need the competition. I’m sure lots of people have thought of this. I mean if Sony (I’m not bashing Sony) had only the one console then it would have cost a lot of money to get one. EA is a good third party company, but they should stick to that, and not consoles. I’ll just say one thing. . . 3DO.
Fish the Fight?
Halo 3 might not be the end. Bungie has announced they are working on some more Halo titles, and some non Halo titles. I’ll start taking bets on if any will be for a MAC.
Here’s another story.
Sony is denying the reports about faulty 40 gig PS3. There have been some internet reports saying over 40% of the 40 gig PS3 would not read game disc. But a spokesperson for Sony says this is not true, and blames the reports on poor journalism.
NOTE: So far I have not said anything about faulty 40 gig PS3s. Yeah! All pro reporter go me. Oh, and to make me look even more pro just overlook the spelling and grammar mistakes.

Let’s Talk Assassin’s Creed.
The game is set to come out next week, and there has been a lot of hype and mystery to it. So, we’re going to dive under the covers, and take a look at some of the mystery. We all know by now the game takes place during the crusades. And you play as a assassin (duh.) In Assassin’s Creed you can be stealthy before you kill, but that does not mean you need to hide in the dark. You can walk around in the crowd, and sit on a bench to bled in. There’s also some strategy in the game. One good idea before you kill a target is to scope out the city. How do I do this you may ask? Well it’s really quite simple. Just climb a high building. One up there you get a good look of the land. You’ll be able to see where some of the guards are, look for the escape route or just enjoy the view
There are four main weapons in the game: Your sword, throwing knifes, a small sword for really close rage combat, and a hidden blade so you can seek up on your targets and wipe them out. Now we were chatting about the crowd earlier did I mention they have a good role in the game play? I kind of did? Ok well listen to this; The crowd can help or hinder you. Say you kill a target, and some guards are after you. You are going to need to make a quick escape, so people in the streets can be in your way. But don’t worry you can knock them down just like in your favourite action movie. If they are not in your way they can get in the way of the guards and help you make a clean escape.
Remind me some time after Assassin’s Creeds comes out to do a review on it. I’ll have to rent it. Then maybe I can find out about the SCI FI elements to it. Ubisoft Hopes to make sequels to Assassin’s Creed. They are going to wait to see if the first one finds an audience and is successful. I just have to say I’m glad they are waiting to see how the first one does. It’s better the calling Assassin’s Creed the first in an epic trilogy. Anyone remember Advent Rising?
Moving On. . .
It might not be five years before we see something new form Nintendo. President of Nintendo Satoru Iwata said "We are always preparing for new hardware so that we can launch whenever we determine we should do so, however, scheduling for a rather fixed launch date four years from today regardless of future changes in the industry and the market, appears to be too inflexible an approach to us. We are always studying and working on what the new hardware must become in the future, but we are also monitoring changes in circumstances in order to act
flexibly."
As for Nintendo’s hand held the DS it might be around for a while. Nintendo says they have no shortage of ideas for the system.
Manhunt 2 will still keep it’s M rating despite some of it’s content. The violence for the sequel was toned down and stuff was taken out. However, hackers found a loop hole to find some the band content. Now we all know how hard it must have been for hackers to get their hands on the content. Rockstar would never hind anything in a game. Would you excuse me for a second I’m going to go get some hot coffee.
Are you ready to rock? Well get in line early or pre order your copy of Rock Band. EA has recently said all things are a go for the Nov. 20th launch, but there might not be enough copies to meet the high demand. So a few people might have to wait before they can rock out.
