Fingers crossed that my PC can run this at Medium graphics settings.

What are your specs? I can give you a healthy guestimate.

For 1080p gaming with high settings and 45-60fps, you're gonna want a GTX570 or a ATI 6950, a good CPU (Sandy Bridge i7 or good Phenom II), and at least 4GB of RAM.

Unfortunately for me, I'm gonna be gaming at 2560x1440, so my GTX570 is gonna be sweating a lot for this game. I can't wait to see how it compares to my time with the Alpha.

Alex Navarro said it best. "Also, straight up, if you play Monster Hunter, we can't be friends."

My favorite games are Battlefield. I've played the Portal games multiple times. I've spent a lot of time in Garry's Mod. In my youth I made a few UT2003 maps. I've never finished a Zelda game. I enjoyed FFXIII. I love Elder Scrolls. I've played the Crysis games. I really like Mirror's Edge. I play Frozen Synapse and Total War Shogun 2 on a regular basis now...

And I'm a sucker for Monster Hunter. I want to play some god damn coop with a friend over the internet on my Vita this time next year.

When you cut me, do I not bleed?

Damn your ignorant heart, Alex Navarro! *shake fist and shout into the sky*

(lol)

What's weird... I dislike most Japanese games. IMO: Dragon Quest is a pile of crap, Final Fantasy is goofy as hell, Mario is sorta blown out of proportion, I don't get Smash Bros., Kirby is dumb, Zelda hasn't progressed since 1998 ... I love Team Ico, though.

But then I buy Monster Hunter Freedom Unite for the PSP. At first it's a load of ass and difficult... but after a few hours time... I really, really, REALLY wanna get the next MH game on the Vita. I just love the combat aspect. It's unforgiving and requires your full attention. Playing co-op over AdHoc Party is some of the best time I've had with my PSP, and I wanna see more stateside of the series.

Ferrari > Porsche. You'd think that Turn10 would be able to strike a deal with EA and go "hey, you can can Ferrari is you let us have Porsche"...

Oh well, here come some RUF!

Don't stop. Keep moving. I'm pretty good at the game and I happened to have a friend play with me who was absolutely terrible, like, 0.25 K/D ratio. By chance the first time I played with him I got a 6500 point match on Oasis, Rush, which blew his mind. He later commented to me that he realized that with me he moved much faster than he ever did just by following me around. Don't wait for enemies to come to you, take them head on... if you don't have the reactions necessary to score perfect head shots in 0.0005 seconds (I can't either), then learn to flank and attack from where they won't expect you. There's no shame in shooting people in the back, now.

That, and when sprinting it's a good idea to temporarily stop sprinting when rounding corners or going through doors in situations where you expect you may run into someone. The moment you're vulnerable while pulling up your gun after sprinting and the time it takes you to adjust your aim can be a killer.

Oh, and always reload when you got a chance. A full clip of ammo is a great thing to have!

Oh, one more thing. Learn to play with iron sights. As awesome as it may be to unlock the red dot and the ACOG for your gun, they're pretty pointless when they take the place of some other more useful perks like extra ammo or grenades.

Yeah, hurry up and get it, or you'll be forced to torrent it. :P

I want to shoot my self as many times in the head as I can while watching this video. The most utterly insane shit I've ever seen. I mean, this is like if you took the Balance Board, Vitality Sensor, PS Move, and Kinect, the 3D of the 3DS, and the Wiimote and put it into a single misguided wonder of technology.

I mean, tilt controls and touch screens have their place... But 99% of the time I'm still playing games with a controller / mouse and keyboard.

I don't want toys, I want games. I wanna play Battlefield, Assassin's Creed, Red Dead, Grand Theft Auto, Witcher. Not utter bullshit variety game packs. Sure, they'll have the one Mario or Zelda game that's just amazing... but I'm not going to buy into that if I only have those to look forward to.

Because he has the blood of their parent.

Right. That means they'd have all the genetic information of the parent up until the point the child is born. .....But how the hell is Ezio's child going to have Ezio's genetic information after its born? It can't.

What ACII told us is that the memory of an ancestor ends as soon as the connecting offspring is conceived. So that means that Ezio has the child that leads to Desmond after any game he appears in. So you can technically never witness Ezio's death first hand. At most you could play his child witnessing his death. But what's funny when you think about it, is that while working in the Animus, you can never control the ancestor up to their death, it's just not possible.

This isn't the first time. In fact, when they did the TNT with BFBC2 a few months ago the stats were all busted at the time and everyone was either defaulted to the AEK, 9A-91, PKM, and M24 -- or if they had the spec-op weapons, they could use those. There is no way they would ever lose everyone's stats. They probably have triple-redundancy on data servers across the world.
