One of the most anticipated games of 2010 has just hits shelves across the globe, and ads an extension to the preceding iteration, Assassin's Creed II.

OXCGN's Southern State US correspondent spends several days in the shoes of Ezio Auditore da Firenze as he and his "brotherhood help clean up the Borgias and bring Roma back from the dark times.

Excellent and detailed review as usual, so take the time out to go and check it out, the site has one of the biggest collection of Assassin's Creed information and followed by Ubisoft Montreal.

This console generation has seen a good amount (but not nearly as much as last gen) of new intellectual properties. Undoubtedly, one of the biggest masterstrokes of the last generation (at least for the beginning of the series) was Prince of Persia.

I vividly recall friends conversing with me about it right when the first game, The Sands of Time, came out. Bear in mind, this was in 2003.

The internet was still getting popular in the Southern United States (broadband wasn’t readily available here until late 2006, and wasn’t pushed until late 2007), and the internet in general was nowhere near the point of rivaling print media as it does now.

I’ll never forget the very first time I was enveloped into the atmosphere of ancient Persia; I’ll also never forget the amazement that ran through my mind when I learned that you could NOT ONLY climb/run on walls, but it was a fundamental aspect of the game!
